Why are we surprised? Trump admires dictators and despots. He has stripped the top level of administration of anyone with knowledge and brains, and replaced them with yes-men. The only required attribute is loyalty (and tribute). He has openly said that the American public won't have to vote again, and is actively dismantling democracy. He has used his position to gain him and his equally disgusting family billions - the most corrupt public figure, let alone president, ever. He supports and enables the worst white supremacists in the country, allows and encourages political violence when it's against his adversaries, and is racist himself. And we're surprised when something like this happens?4 points

In spite of all the stuff going on so far, It's gone beyond just a case of 'What has tRump done now?'.... Quoted from Pearls & Wisdom: "a group of 36 senior neurologists, forensic psychiatrists, general psychiatrists and mental health professionals experienced in the diagnosis of cognitive disorders and evaluation of dangerousness, who had signed an earlier statement in 2024, issued an update on 30 April of this year. They cited examples of Trump’s “marked deterioration in cognitive functioning, evidenced by disorganised and tangential speech, rambling digressions, factual confusions, unexplained sudden changes of course in strategic matters, both national and international, episodes of apparent somnolence during crucial public proceeding. Grandiose and delusional beliefs, including assertions of infallibility…claims that his decision-making authority is unlimited – with no need to consider domestic and international laws and constrained only by his ‘own morality’. Severely impaired judgment and impulse control…Significant loss of self-control (disinhibition) and getting stuck on the same thoughts or actions, unable to let go or move on (perseveration), including seemingly compulsive, manic-like late-night communications – e.g., 150 social media posts in one night.” They conclude: “it is our expert opinion that Donald J. Trump is mentally unfit to be the President of the United States, and that steps to remove him from office must be undertaken with the greatest urgency”. And this bloke has 24/7/365 access to instantly start launching numerous preplanned nuclear ATTACKS. https://johnmenadue.com/post/2026/07/for-president-trump-starting-nuclear-war-as-easy-as-sending-a-tweet/3 points

I took an instructional flight from Moorabbin today. To be honest, there's a lot I could write in the gripes thread, particularly around a) the commerical properties that have gone up, and b) the introduction of landing fees. The urban sprawl is there - the training area has less and less open country. But, that is progress. But, the flight was quite a good one. Just practiced stalls and forced landings.. Didn't die, to that is a positive (for some, I guess not ;-)) The young instructor was very professional and a natural instructor.. sad that an airline or other jet career beckons.. The flight was in an Archer with full EFIS.. Took a bit of getting used to - to be honest would need a bit more time to get comfy with it (and a manual and some prep time). Weather played ball as well.3 points

The Trump administration has just instructed the FBI not to investigate any incidents involving ICE anymore, saying that ICE will do that themselves. That’s not going to work out well. ICE is becoming Trump’s racist paramilitary wing like Hitler’s brownshirts.3 points

I haven't put in panels as it would bre like putting lipstick on a pig. The house really needs knocking down and rebuilding, but I don't have the money for that. I know I am still paying the high price, but I handle it by paying $50 or $100 each pension day to the electric company, and to gas, water rates, etc. That way I build up a credit at a rate I can deal with, and the bill usually comes out $0 to pay. My bank balance revolves in a standard pattern, with no sudden unexpected dives.2 points

A husband walks into Victoria’s Secret to buy his wife a sheer nightgown. The clerk shows him several options ranging from $250 to $500 - the more sheer, the higher the price. He picks the sheerest one for $500 and heads home. He gives it to his wife and asks her to go upstairs, try it on, and model it for him. Upstairs, his wife thinks, "It's so sheer it might as well be nothing! I'll just model naked, return it tomorrow, and keep the $500 refund for myself." She appears naked on the balcony and strikes a pose. The husband looks up and says, "Good grief! For $500, you'd think they'd at least iron it!" He didn't see the punch coming and should be able to see out of at least one eye by the weekend.2 points

But Peter, that's from experts. As every one of Trump's administration picks proves, being an actual expert in something automatically disqualifies your opinion.2 points

Well, here is a potential development that can bring nuclear into a viable alternative: A Canadian lab just ran a chemical process on real spent nuclear fuel and pulled out 90% of the long-lived danger in 24 hours, the part that forces a burial site to last 100,000 years, with the leftovers meant to fuel a reactor https://share.google/bEVunnl6sp8t3mOVg2 points

This mught fit a thread called "How crazy is this crazy world" The infamous Male Supremacist Tate bros (I invented that term) got a private jet flight from Romania (I think?) to USA. Now have been arrested in Miami for extradition to face charges in Blighty. LONDON – Influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have been arrested in Miami after British authorities issued 38 new charges against them, including allegations of rape and sex trafficking. Is this the image of alpha males in 2026?2 points

Cool air More Lift. It was very cold today. I know as I put a new set of spark plugs in the 98 Au . 10 years since the last ones were fitted. Fortunately I'd used anti seize, but had to warm the engine to get the Back one out. Of course that's the Most inaccessible. It's colder here than Melbourne. 1500 feet up. Nev2 points

I put this here partly tongue-in-cheek. But Don't you think a V12 range extender on a 500hp hypercar, sounds like a monster? https://www.motortrend.com/news/evtol-range-extender-hypercar-motor-diesel-v121 point

Trump is about the $#1tiest Leader in the world when it comes to being trusted and keeping your word. ALL HE is CONcerned with is lining his and his families Pockets and getting revenge on those he dislikes. IF he keeps it up he will do great damage to the entire Planet. You must be totally BLIND Gon. You are flogging a Dead Horse. Nev1 point

AI works by identifying patterns in vast amounts of data using algorithms and machine learning, rather than following explicit, step-by-step human instructions. It processes information through neural networks that simulate aspects of human learning, allowing systems to recognize correlations and make predictions or generate new content. The process involves three main stages: training, where models analyze labeled or unlabeled datasets to adjust billions of internal parameters; inference, where the trained model applies these learned patterns to new inputs; and feedback, where human review or automated metrics refine accuracy over time. This allows AI to perform complex tasks like language understanding, image recognition, and decision-making with minimal direct programming. AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.1 point

His rusted on's are blind to the obvious, but it's hard to convince them otherwise because they see any criticism of him as a criticism of them. However, some of them are finally starting to see the light. It's beginning to dawn on them that he doesn't particularly care about them or their problems and that all he's interested in is their loyalty and their votes.1 point

The email came into my personal email account. As I said, if anyone on this forum would be sending me an email, it would be through the forum's messaging system. That's why I deleted the email without opening it. I knew that I could contact Jerry either through this thread or by using the forum's system. I am astounded by how elderly people could let themselves be conned into giving money to strangers who contact them online. Surely we don't have to put up billboards with messages warning that teh internet is rife with scammers in order to give protection to people.1 point

I flagged them as a spammer, blocked their login and deleted all their posts 25 min after you reported the occurrance. At least 10 identical posts on that many forums. Like a few emails I have received and PM's on Facebook from women who spam any link they can get hold of. Have been reported as asking for money. One over 70yo guy got taken for over $300,000 according to the news a couple of weeks ago.1 point

What a dreadful Place the USA has become under Trump. More and more resembling of Hitler's Germany in the Mid to late 30's. Rubio wants to dismantle the International Criminal Court brick by brick.. That would take care of the COURTHOUSE, but the Court itself is PEOPLE. A Legally Constituted Body.. Trump respects NO Rules. HE makes them up as he goes. Nev1 point
