Or, heck, if he can convince most of the workers to stay on for just USD 500k per year, he could do that with just 7 billion and still keep 49 billion for himself.

So, Elon Musk is holding a shareholder vote to reinstate his USD 56 billion pay package that a Delaware court earlier voided for being excessive. At the same time he is planning to lay off 14,000 workers. Now, here's an idea, how about he settles for just USD 28 billion, and uses the other 28 billio...

A lot of people thought it was smart to invade Iraq.
Then it lead to the creation of Isis and fucked up the whole region even worse than before.

Iran also seized a ship in the Gulf the same day. Boarding the ship by repelling from helicopters. It is believed Saudi did more than close their airspace. US and British planes also took part in downing the Iranian invasion. Iran is becoming increasing isolated by their action. Time for the US to ...

Anyone else find it hilarious that the guy who coined the monicker Sleepy Joe for his opponent keeps nodding of during his own trial?



They really should have televised this, like the OJ trial.

Terrorism could make Eurosong global in popularity. Well, it already has twice as many viewers as the superbowl, but sure, neither event can compare with the FIFA World Cup. Which is logical as both are regional events, even if some non-European nations, such as Israel and Australia, participate in...

Do you really think Israel won't respond to a direct attack from Iran involving .. 200 drones, 30 cruise missiles, and 120 ballistic missiles? Oh, I definitely think they will retaliate. I was just hoping they wouldn't, to prevent this from spiralling out of hand. BTW, how "legal" was THAT in your ...

???

Bit of a non sequitur.

Israel blew up Iran's consulate in Damascus, in gross violation of the Geneva convention. Iran responded.

No nukes involved anywhere.

Hopefully it doesn't escalate any further.

Almost forgot about this one; probably my favorite song back like in 9th grade, before I became more interested in punk and reggae.

Nothing on this here message board makes me chuckle and roll my eyes more than reading Per’s posts. I swear nobody likes to hear themselves talk more than him, and nobody around here has a higher opinion of their own intelligence. He’s an atheist who tells theists what they believe. He’s a socialis...

At least they came from behind to get the one point.

It’s what the science predicts. Yes and we all know how accurate climate models have been in the past. :wink: Well, science has a better track record than religion at least. Jesus claimed the end of the world would come within the lifetime of those listening to him, yet here we are, 2000 years late...

This is where I made my military service. I trained at the A8 regiment (mentioned at the 6:50 mark) in Boden as a forward fire observer, and in the grand final maneuvre, when we’re in the forest for a full week of war games, I was stationed with an armoured battalion, riding along in an armoured per...
