The media orchestra

That is what it sounds like, but what us it? It is a media apparatus all set towards the impending doom of isolation, but is that really the case. We start with ‘US opts not to back Saudi Arabia in Yemen after meeting Houthi leaders’ which comes from the Guardian a mere 6 hours ago. It is here we see “Iran-backed militants have offered Trump administration assurances over safety of Red Sea shipping”, as I see it, the divide and conquer model is still the preferred model for Iran backed dumbo’s. And with the setting of “Officials from the US met Houthi leaders over the weekend at the country’s embassy in Muscat, Oman, it has been confirmed, leading to the US decision not to intervene to help Saudi Arabia drive back a Houthi advance inside Yemen.” And with that I personally see (not everyone agrees) that the US has been made the bitch of Iran, initially by Iran itself and now by a vassal of Iran. That is some serious bad managing allies Washington. I am clearly a no-one (mostly self proclaimed) but when Saudi Arabia was under attack, I gave them my military IP to attack Iran and after that the Houthi terrorists. I feel perfectly fine doing that, in the first we all have a decently sworn duty to counter terrorism where we see it and Houthi’s are terrorists, plain and simple. We then get ‘Saudis pound Yemen as Houthis fire back, further widening Middle East war’, we get this from ABC News 15 hours ago where we see “Iran-backed rebels in Yemen have launched drones and missiles at Saudi cities, as the Kingdom launches hundreds of air strikes against Houthi positions, in a further sign that the conflict is worsening. Houthi strikes on a Saudi pipeline has disrupted up to 4 per cent of global oil shipments, further exacerbating the supply shortage triggered by the Iran war. The US is now issuing new warnings to government employees operating in Saudi Arabia.” As well as “The Houthis, who since last week have swept through Yemeni towns along the Red Sea coast and seized islands in the Bab el-Mandeb strait at its mouth, released battlefield video overnight of fighters seizing armoured vehicles from Saudi-backed forces.” All whilst the other ‘side’ is that we are given that ‘Chris Wright on Energy Abundance’ so whilst we are given “The secretary of energy says that making power more abundant for billions of people around the world will only improve their lives—and bring costs down” he gives a theoretical setting to counter a real political one. A non-ally does that and this all started by the stupid actions of the United States (as well as Israel) but the sentiment is that Israel would never have taken such bold actions if it had not received support from the United States. Israel has real grievances with Iran, so I am keeping them out of all this as much as possible. I saw that the only way to counter Iran was the destruction of their 10 refineries as well as ‘scuttle’ (it was as good a word as any) their infrastructure. I handed the IP of this to both the UAE and Saudi Arabia, because they were both under attack for acts they had no help or dealings in. They ever denied the United States to act against Iran from their soil. But Iran’s setting was destabilization of any means as much as possible. It was my thought (optionally a wrong one) that the United States believed that stabilization was their way of coming out on top in the global economy, all whilst they are losing allies quicker than anything the United States has ever witnessed. Some say that the list of allies the United States has dwindled down to 7. Even as we see “The U.S. has comprehensive bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements with 20 countries (including Australia, Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Singapore, and several Central American and Middle Eastern nations)” and it seems that no one took the tariff settings into account. As such they have very little allies left and in that setting the ‘talks’ with Houthi terrorists is a desperate one. And yesterday we got ‘Saudi Arabia warns it will respond ‘firmly’ to Houthi attacks, as oil prices surge’ (source: SBS) so why is the oil price in this so important? Saudi Arabia is under terrorist attack and where is that so called navy of the United States stopping Iranian smuggle vessels? So as we are given “The Houthis have been engaged in renewed fighting with Saudi-backed government forces since Yemen’s civil war reignited in July, when the group declared a maritime blockade on Riyadh and began targeting its ships in the Red Sea.” But the counter setting is also clear. They are receiving massive help from Iran as Houthi resources are dwindling down and as Yemen has little in all this to produce, how are the Houthi getting these materials? So as some make references towards “Iran provides advanced weaponry—including ballistic missiles and drones—along with training and financial assistance as part of its regional “Axis of Resistance”. While international intelligence and independent bodies document this extensive backing, Tehran officially denies direct military involvement.” So whilst some are ‘focussed’ on the tracks of Eritrea and Houthi’s. The technology of Sudan is equally limited and no one is seemingly ‘too’ interested in stopping that too. Is that the act of an Ally? It seems that the walls are closing in on Saudi Arabia, but for what reason? An ally is that, an ally. But as I see it, the United States is so dependent in debt that they will talk to anyone coming with a bag of coins and for that matter, what was stopping the United States to destroy the 10 refineries Iran had? I even created IP to stop their harbors and trains from working, making progress from Iran almost impossible. And I am a no-one. Why did the Pentagon not see these actions. I know I got the better solutions over DARPA at least 4 times over, but I am not that big a genius. So what was stopping the United States with all its resources from coming up with better solutions? Makes you think doesn’t it. And there is no boasting. I put these solutions (in part) on my blog, as such, there are ways to check that. And the tactical insights are about that of a toddler in a sandbox (perhaps their AI disassembled that sandbox?) But it seems to me that too many media (optionally correctly) is showing the world that Saudi Arabia has less and less real allies left. As I see it we need to stand with Saudi Arabia and send that message clearly, of course the other option is clear too. If China now proclaims Saudi Arabia to be an ally and clearly shows this by showing the extent towards a group like the Houthi terrorists, Beijing gets a golden treatment, oil for a long time (and that reduction comes from the United States pile) the United States comes into one of the final legs of their self made train crash. Because without oil it ends quite fast and quite clear. As such the world will say to Chris Bright you proclaimed that you had the way to that making power more abundant for billions of people around the world will only improve their lives—and bring costs down. But the down side to this is that shale gas comes with dangers. Dangers to environment, climate, and health and all due to hydraulic methodology and the chemicals here could reach underwater water streams optionally poisoning the entire nation. But no one is thinking about that, this beside the point that the Dutch learned the hard way. They now have to deal with earthquakes, a place that almost never had them before now has to deal with them regularly. The Netherlands now has 287.000 places in real danger of earthquakes. That is what the United States await and all because it is no longer an ally of the Saudi Arabia, a harsh price to pay and Saudi Arabia never wanted any of this, but now they must do what is bet to Saudi Arabia and what is best for its citizens and as I personally see it, they might turn to China for that. So less than an hour ago we were given ‘US and Houthi Officials Hold Secret Oman Talks as Yemen Conflict Escalates’ with the text “Reuters, citing regional and diplomatic sources, reported that the meeting took place in Muscat with Omani mediation. The Houthi delegation was reportedly led by chief negotiator Mohammed Abdulsalam, while the United States was represented by officials involved in regional security and maritime diplomacy.” And the parties in this were keeping this a secret? (Tiny giggle escaping my throat) but the setting is now clearing up. China has a rather large opportunity and if that help results in downing or even eradicating Houthi interests in Saudi Arabia, the United States will be on the defense, losing the Gulf states for well over a decade. So where was the upside in that February 28th attack on Iran? Where are the smugglers in Eritrea getting their hardware? Why does a no one like me see this whilst this should be clear all over the Pentagon (aka 7400 Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301) as I see it, some games are being played and that might be on the current political branch and the Pentagon takes order from them. As I personally see it, Saudi Arabia will be forced to adjust its traction and allies, but then I am not a politician and I could be wrong.

Have a great day all.

What the eyes see

That is the question at times. So is it ‘What the eyes see’ or ‘What the iiii’s see’? Both are applicable and the setting is that is comes with a subjective view. That is often the case. But this is not about the particular. The article that passed my eyes was quite good and the subtext is “The AI hyperscalers will likely spend more than $1 trillion on data centers next year. Can they make enough money to sustain the infrastructure boom?”, the question reverberates as I have been asking that same question for some time. We all see the ‘investments’ that goes deep into the trillions, and no one seems to be worried about Return on Investment, a setting that is clearly asked in every boardroom in the world. And no one is willing to walk that question. So I grin from a distance and see all these people go “AI AI AI AI” and more of that. Then they all point at some newscast where President Trump states that “The golden age of AI” is upon us. But that simple statement ‘Golden age’ requires a return on investment. That is how it always goes as long as Ive lived and the term return on investment might be somewhat new, but the setting of that requirement was already old when a panting in 1639 was commissioned. It was then lost and found again and is now known as the Night Watch (a sketch by Rembrandt van Rijn) and the article starts rather strong with “When Jessica Wachter, a finance professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, wanted to assess AI’s impact on the economy over the next few years, she faced a long list of business and technical uncertainties. So she started with what she calls a “remarkable fact” that is not in question: A handful of so-called hyperscalers are investing huge amounts of money to build AI data centers. Instead of trying to predict how useful and widely deployed AI models will be, she simply asked how fast the hyperscalers’ earnings will need to grow to justify their spending through 2027, when—she and her collaborator estimate—expenditures will reach nearly $1.1 trillion. It’s a no-nonsense accounting approach to making sense of today’s historical AI buildout.” The source is (at https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/09/15/1144028/ai-infrastructure-boom-investment-bubble-risk/amp/) and it is called MIT Technology Review. We are also given “While the hyperscalers plan to spend trillions, total AI revenues will be around $150 billion to $200 billion this year, says Gary Gensler, who ran the SEC during the Biden administration and is now a professor at MIT’s Sloan School. “The challenge is that the spending does not have commensurate revenues yet. That’s a fact,” he says. “And then the question is, is that an investment that will be paid off in the future?”” From a distance (as I personally see it) it is a bundle of technology firms who have (on the books) trillions and they are using it to play ands of high risk poker and the world is allowing this, because if they lose it all they can write it off against their taxation, so the people basically pay for it all and I see it as a whole lot of nonsense because AI does not yet exist. I have written about this on several occasions. So, should it not be done? I cannot answer this, because Machine Learning and Deeper Learning (what I call Deeper Machine Learning, or DML) is a strong tool, and it could come with Large Language Models (LLM) if that setting is warranted and it was merely wrongly sold. It gave me the setting that court cases would reign over all this in 2026 and I was proven correctly. What we see now, is a clever use of predictive analytics on a much larger scale, but it is not AI, as such the Return on Investment needs to be strong. And as we see here (in this article) “At stake in that trillion-dollar question is the financial health of the giant AI companies and the overall US economy—the investments could soon balloon to around 3% of GDP. The answer could also determine the fate of the hugely expensive data centers themselves. No one really knows how profitable and useful these multibillion-dollar behemoths will be down the road. Though AI models have made dazzling progress over the last few years, it’s anyone’s guess how much compute capacity we will need. The technology could become more efficient and therefore less dependent on raw computational power. Or demand for AI products could slow, or customers could turn to cheaper models.” And whilst we think of the risk that ‘cheaper models’ give us, that setting might prove rather difficult, because when cost is pushed to make way for revenue, costing becomes a big thing and it really is a big thing. So when we are given “No one really knows how profitable and useful these multibillion-dollar behemoths will be down the road” the issue of return on investment will show its ugly head and that is the price part of this debate and no one is having it, because these boar members are all “We need AI and we need it now”, all whilst the return on investment is not proven and not shown anywhere. Don’t get me wrong. There are clear cases where a setting exists and options exist. I was shown the case of the issue of lost property and the stage was shown that from weeks, there is a setting where weeks could be turned into a setting where it could be done in under two hours. That is clear return in investment and for airports and bus terminals it could be a space saver. And from there we see interactive improvements. These are good ideas, even great ideas that when AI is finally here it will become powerhouses, but there is the setting that proper database work and LLM might do the trick. Clever programming that does not require AI. We got by just fine before this fake AI and whilst these snake oil vendors are so settled in ‘their’ AI, all whilst they are using the principles of predictive analytics and that is not AI.

So then we get to “The risks, both to investors and to the economy, have become even greater this year, as these AI companies have begun borrowing large amounts of money to build more and more data centers. Free cash flow—operating cash flow minus capital expenditures—is expected to soon dip into negative territory for the group. Even Alphabet, known for generating and hoarding huge amounts of cash, reports in the latest quarter that its impressive revenues of nearly $120 billion were devoured by AI infrastructure spending, leaving it with a free cash deficit of some $5.9 billion—its first shortfall since Google went public in 2004.” This is because I see another shortfall in the short term. Everyone is so driven towards data centers, whilst President Trump has driven the EU and other places away from the vendors of the United States and the term ‘data sovereignty’ is becoming more and more commonplace and whilst everyone is seeing these data centres and Stargate centres. It requires data and the EU is moving fast away from whatever Microsoft and Google are handing down towards their own centers not using software or hardware from the United States. The cloud act is now making that no longer an option. We get that from Politico, who gave us some time ago “Europe is actively trying to break its deep-rooted dependence on American big tech and cloud infrastructure. While major U.S. hyperscalers (like Amazon, Microsoft, and Google) still control roughly 70% of the European cloud market, public institutions and governments are shifting away from them”, as such 2027 might see a rather large turnabout and what happens to these data centres that are lacking data? You might think this is easy, but it all impacts the return on investment. 

So when we get to “Performance of the expensive GPU chips at the core of the data centers—such compute electronics represent some 60% of costs—is roughly doubling every two years or so. The pace of progress helps explain the increasing wizardry of the AI models, but it comes with a cost. Owners of AI data centers that come online this year and next will need to spend billions more on the next generation of chips by the end of the decade if they want to stay competitive. Without the investments, says Mihir Kshirsagar at Princeton’s Center for Information Technology Policy, the data centers risk becoming “hulks,” stranded assets “scattered all over the place.”

To put it bluntly: The AI companies need to start making a lot more money. And they need to do it fast. But juicing their earnings alone still won’t be enough to sustain their data-center investments for the long term.” And that is merely the beginning and I saw this roughly two years ago when I questioned the entire return on investment setting in all this and this article written by David Rotman does a good job, even more eloquent than I would have been. Although we basically say the same, this article does so a little better (and definitely more eloquent) then I could have written. So when you see the billions due next year, optionally over the next 2 years. Where is the return on investment? Because that is the question that is out there and as the IT field is changing and moving away from the United States, they too will see diminished revenue numbers. That much is certain, so where does this all stand? I am expecting a setting of actual AI to be a little over a decade away, it depends on certain factors and it also take in account a setting that I personally see (which might be wrong) but I feel that there is no AI, or as some call it true AI and I believe that requires a trinary data setting. As I see it it requires quantum computers (which exist) with shallow circuits (which is still in an early stage, as far as I know) and it requires a trinary coprocessor, which I call a Epsilon processor. These elements are required for an aI system, I set the system using a trinary coprocessor because that makes sense in a setting that is in part binary, that setting makes sense. We cannot merely push trinary systems through, there is will be a stage where they both need to exist. Later these systems are likely to be completely trinary, but that is merely my thoughts on the matter. And all this is still set towards the stages of return on investment. When you are considering this, how many billions are still required and who is willing to place this onto a systems that is unlikely to turn profit for a few years, optionally ver a decade. Who has that kind of money? There are a few, but are they willing to surrender that kind of money? The question might seem simple but the setting is not as straightforward as anyone thinks. And I saw this all along, so who gave you all the idea that the golden age of AI was here? Because that requires a massive revenue, or am I wrong?

Have a great day today, I’m now 90 minutes from Thursday and in Toronto it is now breakfast time. The idea to start the day with breakfast in Eggspectation on Bay Street is a little overwhelming for me at the moment. So you all have a good one and I will write to you in about 17 hours.

Approach this

This is a weird setting. You see I got sucked into a video (on YouTube) regarding the September 11th event and every year I see the same things passing by and usually I ignore them, not because I don’t care, but because it tends to be mass creators. And I am not really into that. This being said, this time I let it happen because it was 25 years ago. I remember that day 25 years ago decently. I was sitting in a bar (at lunchtime) in Stockholm consuming my wrap with Bamse and Potatismos. When Fox (or CNN) came up with the news, ignoring what I was doing and I saw the impact of the first plane. I ran upstairs and got the girls (fellow workers) Eva and Anneli and we were seeing the impact the first plane made and I immediately called the New York office to ask what they saw (we had an office in the Empire State Building) but I actually didn’t know to which side of the city they were looking and even as we were talking the second plane hit. We saw it live on TV. This was the moment I knew that the United States were under attack. There is no way this happens twice within the span of an hour (I actually didn’t know how much time had passed) but the terrorist setting was clear to me. It would be hours before I learned the the Pentagon was hit too. But I also saw that this was a failed attempt. I reckon that bin Laden had intended to let the two towers burn like matches so through the night that terror would get the people of the United States by the heart. But then the failure struck. The towers collapsed and the terror turned into anger and hate in an instance and that was when bin Laden decided into finding a place wherever he could hide, because only the Japanese know what an angry United States feels like and they did find out (the hard way) and if you want to see that impact watch Zero Dark Thirty, an excellent movie by Kathryn Bigelow. But this is not about that. You see, I always feel the urge of a game I bought in 1988 by Andy Hollis (a founding member of Microprose) the game was Kennedy Approach, I had the CBM64 edition.

And I never stop being amazed how he got this game working in only 64KB of memory and that it still tingles my mind is basically unheard of, that is the impact of a great game. And I wonder why this wasn’t set into the new systems (you know PS5, Nintendo Switch) and that is the real worry and also the path to amazement. Because whenever I hear that I hear people say “that game made me interested in being an Air Traffic Controller”. It is not a leap because even as the graphics were low standard (by even the definitions of 1988), but the issue is that this game tingles the imagination and nowadays, whilst some players are trying to get to ‘rejuvenate’ their old games and some still wake up the jolt of the old achievements (like Oblivion remastered) and the only game that really woke up the feelings of the old game was David Braben who turned Elite into Elite Dangerous giving us 600% more of a game that was a stretch from the start. I reckon that And Hollis could do the same, even if it only improves the ‘smooth’ graphics. Optionally he could add Amsterdam International, Arlanda (Stockholm), Heathrow (London) and optionally Dubai International Airport, Sydney International, and a few more. It might aid the new player if it was a little more educational as well, an option that could be ‘unlocked’ by finishing the first airport which I believe was Dallas/Fort Worth, some say it was Atlanta, but I do not remember that level. 

But the setting is clear in a sea of wannabe innovators who want to innovate gaming (by giving us Galaga on a tablet) games like Kennedy Approach should be on the forefront of their mind and I reckon that taking an educational sidestep might also encourage people to take that path. There is something of a disheartening side to the conversation “You did great at math, you have inside, you have what it takes to be a traffic controller ” I don’t know about you, but that comes across as a little anti climactic but that might be merely me. And the international setting could entice a lot more people and the educational side of it might give more people that vibe of “This seems rather wow (not World of Warcraft)” and the idea that a game still has appeal after 38 years and not just with me, should get the investors running for their purse to get this started. Well actually I reckon that Andy could afford all this with his own pennies, but there is the setting that he might get a game developer like Saudi Arabia involved. And they would love to get their hands on an original developer and even as it is ‘set’ as it is considered a highly respected classic. It got 85% to 90% rating and that is what I think is needed to revamp an original game onto a new classic and as I see it, it would hit well with the Nintendo Switch crowd which is presently around 156.59 million units worldwide as of June 30, 2026 only 4 million below the PS2 which is currently the global number one and I reckon that this record is broken when we consider switch lite as well. But the Switch is still being sold, so I have no doubt that they will break the PS2 global record this year. As such it should bow clear that the Nintendo Switch is the preferred system and the original fitted on a 360KB floppy, as such it could easily be sold in the Nintendo store and on physical media. As such, why did no one else think of that?

As I see it (and as we see failing design settings on nearly all consoles) the idea of revamping these old games could be the ticket for any developer of video games. It is just my way of keeping the old ideas alive and if one developer (David Braben) can do it, so can several others. You just need to keep it out of the fingers of these wannabe developers who think that the latest graphics are the ticket to quick profit. That is unlikely to happen. But the setting of great graphic games can be the ticket if the rest was awesome too. A example is Insomniac’s Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (2021), which I picked up again as I never got it finished 100% and Wolverine is coming up today, as such I thought it would be a great idea to get another game finished 100% and I am making splendid waves at present. I finished the game at least 4 times and I had a blame blast every time I played it. That makes for an awesome game. And Insomniac does know how to make great games, as such there is plenty to game in 2026. Wouldn’t it be great that some of the great CBM64 games would make a reentry? Especially as we are focussed on the less than half a dozen titles at present? Just food for thought, have a great day today.

Changing the byline

That is the setting I see and whilst the BBC (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cqgk5e2j0gg8o) gives us ‘AI ‘kill switch’ may need to be mandatory, Anthropic co-founder tells BBC’ a mere 5 hours ago. I had my thoughts. So, as we see “An artificial intelligence “kill switch” which can be checked by a third party may need to be mandatory for companies, a co-founder of one of the world’s largest AI firms has told the BBC.” I see something different. So when we get to “Clark said “most labs have different ways of being able to pull the plug”, including Anthropic, but said lawmakers may need to enforce having one. AI’s rapid development and fears over the risks it poses to humanity have been thrust into the spotlight by a series of warnings from executives and staff at AI firms.” And when we get to “Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei over the weekend called for the pace of AI development to slow and be more closely monitored, as the company has done before, though some have questioned the motivations behind this.

Amodei added that any action to rein in AI development should be done “without sacrificing commercial advantage”.” Thoughts started to overwhelm me. Some people state that the setting is about “AI’s rapid development and fears over the risks it poses to humanity” I don’t think that is the case. I merely think it is what some will ‘present’ the setting that we are given and most people are willing to go along with that. There is however a larger concern. You see I have had my meetings with these AI boffins and they all have the same setting towards validation and verification that is in play. There isn’t any of it, and when it is there it is there in the most ludicrous basic ways. You see, there is just one step (just one) from AI hallucinations (which is a confident response from an artificial intelligence system that contains false, misleading, or completely fabricated information presented as fact) and it is seen as Invented statistics, historical errors, or nonexistent legal citations, as well as Citations to books, research papers, or URLs that do not exist. I have seen this and I have seen that the settings that this represents to court cases are numerous and we have seen n the news several settings. But the larger concern is that between that and an AI actually overwriting factual matters of any corporations is only one mere step and these fake AI vendors are insulating themselves from that fact by ‘employing’ a kill witch, so that they can avoid getting called into court by setting the stage of ‘Did you use the kill switch?’ And that  is the setting I see. So whilst we are given (by the BBC) ““Should you mandate for companies to definitely have a kill switch? Is that kill switch verifiable by a third party?” he asked.

“I think that’s the kind of thing society is going to want to know and might want to eventually pass rules around.” Anthropic, which was formed in 2021 by a group of former employees of its rival OpenAI, is currently at the centre of a debate around AI safety. Last week, a post from an artificial intelligence researcher who quit Anthropic over concerns AI could wipe out humanity went viral.” So is this really about “over concerns AI could wipe out humanity”, you do know that Cyberdyne is just a figment of the brilliant director named James Cameron, it was ahead of its time and we aren’t nearly there yet, but the kill switch scape goat is one way to counter the class actions heading their way and whilst some can’t be avoided, the larger concern is what will happen in 2027, because that will be the truncator of their wealth and they are seeing the stoplights and they want to insulate themselves from their fake AI. They rode the waves as much as they can, but the first blockages are showing and now the cautious people are rearing their heads. I see all the complacencies showing up (like figment court cases) and that is merely the beginning, but the setting that corporations factual data is overwritten or wiped is only one step away and I reckon that these people want to insulate themselves and as they are coasting their vessels of wealth towards sunny shores, they have no other option but to insulate themselves and their wealth. 

Funny that I saw these court cases come up a long time ago. I never saw this part, but this part makes sense. When your training data is based on reddit (whilst we are given “Major AI companies train their models on nearly all of Reddit’s public historical archive”) is this continuation of dangers weird or unsuspected? As I see it, when even one factual data is overwritten by some fake AI juiced up on reddit, the setting gets ugly in a hurry. And that is what these people are ‘misrepresenting’ and crying now for some kill switch, because the kill switch is not for the AI, it is their escape clause. So whilst you might doubt me (always a fair setting) I have written about the fake AI setting for the longest time. 

So someone asked me what makes binary AI surreal? I give them the same setting every time. Take any colored image (example 600 by 600 dots) and run it through plotter printing only black and white dots on a colored piece of paper (green, red or blue) then do it on the same kind paper and instead of black and white, add the option to do this in black, white and 16 greyscales. You will see that this image is much more precise and revealing. This is the setting between binary and trinary this is why all AI is fake and it gets to be worse when you consider that you need a lot more data describing in binary what requires trinary and that is why I was on this horse all along and I have been on it for over 10 years, but the players all think that they have the golden goose and I merely cannot see what it is. Well, It is ‘advanced’ predictive analytics. These AI cannot reason, they work the numbers, go with statistics and it is nice if it is a set field, when they go towards never encountered situations, it all falls apart. This is the weakness of these fake AI’s and it is not whether I hate AI, I merely don’t trust it, because it is not AI, and Alan Turing would have my back on this. 

So whilst you think that I am “Full of Sh*t”, which is your right. My predictions are given form through my blog and in 2025 I predicted that 2026 was the year of AI class actions and now we see “Broadridge’s 2026 Global Class Action Annual Report highlights that global class action activity recently produced around $4 billion in settlements across multiple jurisdictions from roughly 130 major claim-filing deadlines” as well as “According to the Duane Morris Class Action Review, the combined value of the top 10 highest settlements across all substantive areas previously crossed the historic $70 billion mark, showing how massive individual mega-settlements drive the ceiling of total class action value” and “In the U.S. and global financial sectors, recovery momentum has accelerated into 2026, with an increasing number of nine-figure and $100M+ securities settlements closing out the mid-year milestones”, as such my predictions are holding up neatly. And now these vendors need insulation and they are thinking (optionally correct) that a kill switch might take the dangers to their wealth away. And I get that these fat cats want to insulate their wealth and insulate the dangers to them, but the BBC should have a greater need to look into these dangers and that is why I took this article as an example. I reckon that it is not only the BBC going after this. As I see it, Dario Amodei, Sam Altman and Elon Musk are all in agreement to slow down, but I reckon it is because they are seeing the dangers heading for their assets and they are in it too deep (as I personally see it). 

As I see it, this is the heading that we are seeing happen and soon there will be some (optionally fictive) revelation and that is when the stage changes and we will see massive amounts taken out of the AI field. When that happens there is no Jensen Huang claiming that there is no bubble, the court cases that will be an exploding setting will shut that down in a hurry. 

But what do I know? So you all have a great day today and I will be watching from the docks watching the good ship bubble explode near the parking zone. And I can say this whilst I have been preaching these dangers for nearly a decade. Where exactly where you a decade ago? Consider this setting and enjoy your day.

It’s new Jim

That is the setting giving a little homage to Dr. Leonard McCoy (DeForest Kelley) and he rightfully deserves it. Don’t get me wrong, Karl Urban did a fine job, but I grew up watching the Original cast on TV and lets be clear, Karl was amazing as the little winged Cupid and he was the best judge we have seen in cinema. He looked really like the comic books, but it is not about either characters. There is however some light connection and this story I hand to Avalanche Software. You see, I got to thinking early this morning and I reckoned that backstories make for decent games and whilst we consider series like CSI (which is awesome) the idea of an Auror taking care of business was not greatly shown in Hogwarts Legacy and as such that role needed an update for the second game. But what is a story/vocation when you aren’t vested in the idea? So that’s when I came up with the trials of an Auror. You see, we can all look towards the stages of magic as there is greatness and greatness, but working with limitations is what truly could make a game great. As such we needed to see a magic class that has little magic, not a squib, but perhaps an alchemist derivative, so not magic press, but magically inclined and with additional skills. And as such the Auror Alchemist came to mind. Not a squib, but limited magic with skills. So even as some (namely one) that had the Philosophers stone, but alchemists has a long lineage of magic creatures and this one was driven into a police force as a forensic specialist and as such he was ‘summoned’ to work in Irondale. So this is where the setting starts.

Consider the CSI games and they were fun, but it is settled around statical settings. So what happens when the game is drenched in Hogwarts Legacy (to give it a name) and you need to look at the settings of crimes with a magical aspect and often it needs to be surrounded by muggle settings. As such it becomes a two tiered game. Consider like the crime scenes in Arkham Knight, but not that high tech, the setting however could be used and it needs to be set in both ‘muggle’ and magic challenges, because the evidence needs to ‘satisfy’ common folk (as in non-magical hardworking people) and that is the challenge for Avalanche. I consider the feeling I had with the scene of Potter/Dumbledore finding Slughorn in Budleigh Babberton (yes, I know, it is not a real town). But that setting inspired the idea and it needs to be a serious piece of entertainment. As such the groundwork needs to be done and all kinds of Lore would need to get created and perhaps this would be up to team Avalanche/Rowling. I have no idea how that setting is or works. But I am merely trying to dot the “iiiiii’s” So when the mechanics are given the proper considerations (I used the Batman as a setting, which might work) but there is no high tech, there is a ‘predator’ setting of the room with scents, different looks and a splatter view of substances you see and so on. Like a magical renaissance view of Batman crossed with what a snake might see (they have infrared vision) and link that with a cat and you get a whole new world. Optional these views are evolution views that the Auror could grow/embed. 

And there needs to be decent cases, which is up to Avalanche software to figure out. Can’t expect me to do it all. But I believe that the Wizarding world fans are numerous, so numerous that they will grow that side into a talking about this setting and this optional game (optionally rejected by Avalanche software) to consider. And as this is a Wizarding world setting is is (as I personally see it) the idea is now also co-owned by JK Rowling. 

So, consider the implications of it all, the idea of getting a magic/muggle stage and how to combine that? I think that Arkham Knight had the right setting (and amazing job by Rocksteady Studios) and we cannot tweak it, but we can set this stage in a similar fashion, more renaissance, less high tech and there are also red herrings (not the fish), because when can we see a muggle stage? It might be a more advanced case later in the game. 

As such I feel I have spend my day creatively and it beats looking at the lies from politicians in a stage we massively don’t care about. Personally I think that this could be its own game (or at least should be) whilst parts of this could be transferred (more transformed) into Hogwarts Legacy 2 (if this fits whatever story line Avalanche is considering.

As they say another day, another dollar (in my case, my issues should then be solved by February 10,415 (almost 2 centuries after Paul Atreides is born).  You all have a good one today. My Monday is nearly over and I see now on YouTube that the TIFF is running (Toronto International Film Festival), and rumor has it that Sebastian Stan will be seen there with both arms intact (can someone confirm this please?)

Comedy time

Yup, there is time for comedy, especially in the Middle East and BRICS. You see, the ‘entertainment’ is given to us by Reuters who gives us ‘Iran and UAE back joint BRICS statement urging restraint in war’ and Iranian restraint is shown by supplying Houthi terrorists with all the means they have to destroy the Yemeni army, attack Saudi Arabia and whoever they please? How is that restraint? It is preposterous to believe that Iran is in any way entitled to ‘restraining party’ in any case. As we are seeing this story (at https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/brics-agrees-joint-declaration-before-new-delhi-summit-sources-say-2026-09-12/) we are also given (at https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2026/9/13/iran-war-live-saudi-arabia-and-houthis-trade-strikes-over-bab-al-mandeb) ‘Heavy fighting erupts in Yemen as Houthis make new push’ a story less than an hour old. Here we are given “Heavy fighting is under way in Yemen between Houthi fighters and troops supporting the country’s internationally recognised government, with the Houthis reportedly advancing towards the strategic northern city of Marib. Saudi Arabia has carried out several air strikes on areas recently taken by the Houthis.” The problem is that as far as we know it is Iran supplying the weapons and funds for weapons and in this setting I have an issue that Iran is calling for restraint. It seems like a replay of the Hamas situation again and again, negotiate until the supplies arrives. And Iran might be supplying the arms, but they allegedly have cracks in their supply lines too at present. 

We get this from the US congress who gives us “major supply chain and economic problems due to the ongoing conflict with the U.S. and Israel, combined with severe internal water and environmental crises” I am not willing to give a blank cheque to this intel, but seeing what they face, these settings sound true. Today is a short article, there is too much to read at present and I am not the most awake person at present. I hope to write more in the next 15-20 hours and optionally about new IP, I haven’t done that for a few days.

Have a great one today.

The race is on

It is not a simple race. It is either the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia survives, or it is destroyed by terrorists. 8 hours ago, Politico (one of several, at https://www.politico.com/news/2026/09/12/saudi-arabia-has-few-options-as-it-faces-mounting-threats-from-iran-and-its-allies-01073550) gave us ‘Saudi Arabia has few options as it faces mounting threats from Iran and its allies’ and make no mistake, all this was started by the United States and Israel. All whist the Gulf States denied the United States access to their terrains to engage in hostilities with Iran. As such I felt perfectly validated giving the Kingdom some of my military IP. And when we get the subtext “President Donald Trump seems reluctant to widen an already unpopular Mideast war as Houthi rebels threaten a crucial Red Sea shipping route.” We realise that the United States is done for. They cannot now, nor ever destroy Iran (even though I punished methods that are 98% cheaper) the world its realizing that the US is no longer an ally to rely on, it is not even an ally anymore. No matter what it is (basically less than nothing) it was bullying its way to Canada, Greenland and Venezuela. And whilst it’s limited victories are highlighted to include the name ‘America’ in places where it doesn’t belong (like the Gulf of Mexico, or Lake Ontario) or the name Trump added to the JFK centre and let not forget adding a tacky ballroom to the White House and the disasters aren’t letting up any day soon. So when the Iran clambake started on February 28th 2026 we get “Media trackers and network analyses (such as CNN) have documented at least 38 instances of Trump declaring that a deal to end the conflict was imminent” which makes the United States the laughing stock and the setting for Saudi Arabia who is (along with several countries in the middle) caught caught between q rock and a case case. And Iran is exploiting it for what it can and now the terrorist allies of Iran see their goal clear to cash in on this. Among them the Houthi terrorist and whatever is coming from Iraq. So when we get to “Saudi Arabia’s crown prince and de facto ruler, Mohammed bin Salman, has spent years trying to build a very different Middle East, with wide-ranging social and economic changes aimed at transforming the ultra-conservative kingdom into a global business hub in a more prosperous and integrated region.Those efforts suffered major setbacks after Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel, which triggered one war after another. When the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on Feb. 28, it responded with missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, and effectively shut down the Strait of Hormuz, bottling up their oil and gas exports and jolting the world economy.” So whilst through Hamas Israel has a decent case for attacking Iran, the United States seemingly has not. We can all agree that Iran is a terrorist state and a response to their hybrid warfare was necessary from an Israeli point of view. That much is clear, but Iran fearing for its life got all the others engaged, to muddy the waters and hoping for some islamic unison, all whilst the other gulf states would prefer a union with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and not with Iran. And whilst we think it is Iraq, the Deutsche Welle gave us 3 hours ago that the actual culprits are Iranian working from Maysan. As such it is becoming more and more clear that (as some would say) that the only good Iranian is a dead one and whilst I see that destroying the infrastructure is valid, I handed the IP tools to Saudi Arabia to make it happen. I have a different setting towards the Houthi terrorists. There I am in favour of eradication. The Yemeni House war was instigated by Houthis and it lay waste to Yemen in the last 12 years. As such there is no other option. The time to talk is over as I personally see it, and I had no issues giving my military IP to Saudi Arabia. 

So when we get the response “Trump on Saturday said Iran “probably” was behind the Saudi pipeline attack. Asked about a recent call with Saudi’s crown prince, he said: “He’s a good friend of mine, and I can just say everything’s going to work out fine and dandy.”” We can see what kind of a joke this United States administration has become, and when we see the additional “Trump shrugged aside the idea of increasing military pressure, as some U.S. hawks have suggested. “Maybe I don’t do that because of the election,” he told Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.”

Ratney, the former U.S. ambassador, said it would be difficult for the Saudis to achieve their objectives without consistent U.S. support, which they had at previous times while fighting the Houthis. “My understanding at this point is the White House is not enthusiastic about getting involved,” he said.” We get to see first hand what a losing party this administration has become. And with the “It would be difficult for the Saudis to achieve their objectives without consistent U.S. support” we see what they are made of (and it is not good) all whilst my methods (whilst unproven) were proven in France during WW2, and it takes away 98% of the cost, so what stopped them? I saw a way to include the harbours stopping Iran from progressing in a way they currently are and my personal sight is that the Gulf states invite China to become the real ally that they need. For China it would be a big win, because it takes away the options for the United States and they will solely need to rely on their own oil, all whilst they are close to 2 trillion in deficit and that is likely to end the economy of the United States. It then allows for a union with the UAE and Canada (optionally the whole Commonwealth) taking the United States out of nearly all theaters of commerce, collapsing their tariff stage for over 90% (I hate the term 100% loss), there are always the fools that are smitten with bully tactics and there will be some left, even though most will see that it was basically the last tactic the United States has left.

Am I right?
That is a fair question to ask, the Saudi setting requires assistance, even if it is genuine concern by trustworthy parties. As I see it, the United States is no longer worthy of that title and perhaps there is a move that Canada could make, because they are real allies and they have real economic gravitas, but I cannot answer for them as I am not Canadian. The silence from the other Commonwealth parties is too deafening to be taken seriously. I believe that the UAE and Saudi Arabia should unite their efforts. I have always believed that and I still believe that the gulf states could unite (without Iran) with Saudi Arabia and the UAE heading that table. But this is speculative, not even presumptive. It still needs a direct action against Houthi terrorists and the other nations need to see this, because no matter how it ends, Houthi terrorists will come after all the other domains (optionally with Iranian support) and that is what it always was working towards. And at that point Shia muslims will destroy Sunni muslims, or make them inferior and whilst Makkah and Medina are the real prices that they covet, it will transform into the need of all gulf nations under rule of Shia states. That is merely my speculative view and even I wonder if I would be that correct. It feels like it, but a ‘feeling’ is not ever valid evidence in the matter. 

So have a great day today.

Droning right along

That is the setting I saw in my mind. A drone solution to a screwed up situation and the Houthi terrorists have themselves to thank for that. So as I saw the news from different places. The BBC gives us (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c23x72yx2rvo) ‘Houthis claim major advance in Yemen and tighten grip on Red Sea shipping lane’ where we see “The Iran-backed group seized Perim Island at the mouth of the waterway in the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a source from Yemen’s internationally recognised government told the BBC. It comes a day after the Houthis captured the strategic port city of Mokha from Saudi-backed pro-government forces, according to military sources. A Yemeni military official told the AFP news agency the Houthis now control the entire coastline.” With the additional “The Houthis earlier said they posed no threat to international shipping but reiterated their threat to target vessels from Saudi Arabia. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the country’s de facto ruler, has personally pressed US President Donald Trump to take military action against the Houthis during their rapid advance, two sources familiar with the matter told CBS News – the BBC’s media partner in North America.

Trump has so far declined to involve the US military directly, offering instead to assist with intelligence and targeting support, the sources said.” So as the United States cannot clean up their messes, because all this got pushed to the surface by Iran engaging through Houthi Terrorists (yes, BBC, these troops are terrorists) Saudi Arabia is pushed to do something, as President trump seemingly is declining to involve the US military directly, I see a solution where the United States are pushed out of the Middle East completely, with a simple optional presence in Tel Aviv. We get China to render assistance. And in that setting I see drones getting involved (in my mind the lyrics from ‘moving right along’ by the Muppets is droning in my head. 

[KERMIT]              Droning right along
                    In search of allies and methods
                   With allies that can’t lose
[FOZZIE]               This would be upgraded
[KERMIT]                 Opportunity knocks once let’s reach out and grab it
                                   Together we’ll jack it
[FOZZIE]                  We’ll grab it, make and amuse it
[KERMIT] (spoken) Amuse it?

You get the idea and this is not entertainment, although the creativity that surrounds it might make it so. And for terrorists we need to think differently. As I suspect, the capture of Mocha was merely to get the influx of weaponry going (their number one goal) and there I see the setting of another wave of expediency.
So as we get to the drones we need several new settings. A spy drone (explanation down the track and delivery drones. 
The spy drone would be (depending on the vessel) parked in a higher place (like a ships mast) or is the ship allows it parked on top of the wheelhouse, or behind the wheelhouse, stuck behind the bowel of the ship. It serves two purposes, the first is to monitor anything it can and capture any transmission it can. It is about to become important. You see the delivery drones do two things. Deliver the surface mines and the ball mines. The surface mines blow the hull, the ball mines are dropped right above the hole and the water influx into the vessel will suck it into the ship. At that point all hell brakes lose and these smugglers will contact whomever they can, because when they fail, they lose a lot of revenue and their vessel. So they will cry for help in all directions and the spy drone will capture all this and their jamming capabilities will make sure that this doesn’t go any further. Optionally, they can delay the second they have into minutes of agony and record all that is going on. Optionally capture the names of IRGC members. 
So depending on the size of the vessel, 2-3 drones are all that is required and when they deliver the payload they fly back. The balminess are a different matter. They explode like fragmentation mines and make a mess of what is inside the vessel. As I see it (see below) 

The ball mine has these blue balls, which are an optional weaker version of a Neodymium magnet, it might be one, but I do not think that this strong a magnet is required. As a back it has the electronics on the inside, the outer shell is a metal with the magnets on top of it (see more pictures below) and as the ball moves, it can move into any direction, it might be moved by the spy drone, but getting it on the wall and moving up is basically what is needed and Machine Language is all that is required. The ball moves into position and blows, making a mess of anything inside the ship and optionally the machine room will be taken out, making the vessel a sinking dead duck. 

as you see it is metal, the magnets and the C4, a simple solution with low cost, no missiles required. This ball could be used in the field as well, but there it has a much bigger role. So as we see that drones could be dropping their ordinance, or used as portable claymores, we have a setting against terrorists. We merely have to engage the biggest groups and take out these terrorists. You see, President Trump. I need not waste billions on missiles and long winded speeches, up to 5 drone operators, sitting at a comfy chair with their own playbooks is all that was required. I reckon the Chinese party in this, might throw in that comfy chair for free. And that is all she wrote. A simple solution taking care of terrorists. The balminess can directly engage with vehicles and attach to them and whilst they blow, these adversaries are not given a long life. 
It took me mere hours to come up with this and I feel happy, activistic and pragmatic. Solution that doesn’t not require to heavily invest in anything worthy, let alone a terrorist group. And s the numbers pile up, I reckon that Iran will suddenly cry like a little girl, call everyone names and they can cry us all a river on Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC. Perhaps they find a sympathetic ear there.
So as I see it, Saudi Arabia can use these designs to get a working model, free of charge. Even though I would kindly ask that any oil requests from the Commonwealth will get a sympathetic ear. I am a commonwealthian after all. My mind came up with several other idea in the application of Claymore devices, as they are dropped from drones and as these drones need not be wasted, we can engage with stronger drones and leave a rather nasty red stain on wherever we engage these terrorists. I think that I used my time in a productive setting the hour. Time for me to watch some TV and consider playing a game or two in a few hours.

You all have a great day.

Days of our lives

Yes, that is the setting and it is like a drama, a soap and at times an inverted romcom where hate is the operative word. The Guardian (at https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/sep/10/china-huawei-trial-us) gave us today ‘China’s Huawei branded a criminal enterprise as tech firm’s US trial opens’ as such we see the accusation “A US prosecutor described China’s Huawei as a criminal enterprise that stole from US companies to build its telecommunications empire, as the trial against the tech company kicked off in Brooklyn federal court on Wednesday.” And as ‘the media’ labelled me as “pragmatic activist” (which made me feel like a million bucks) and this article let me be my activist self and I will throw some pragmatic sides to it.  

So when we are given ““Theft, lies, cover-up,” Taylor Stout, a trial attorney from the US Department of Justice, said in the government’s opening statement. “For 20 years, that’s how Huawei, a massive Chinese telecommunications company, victimized American companies and abused the American financial system, all in an effort to dominate the telecommunications industry around the world.”” I have had it with the United States. They lie, they cover up and as I see it, they steal. The lie? Well I can start with the 66 times that they defeated Iran, then there are the media analyses that frequently examine altered accounts of historical events, such as Trump’s top six falsehoods about 9/11 covering his whereabouts and observations and the list goes on. Then we come to the setting where we demand the evidence of wrongdoings by Huawei and we get a tirade of boasts and colorful language, but where is that list of a summary of wrongdoings? 

Then we get the cover ups. What was covered up? The cover up is as I saw it that the techno boys of the United States set on their bedsides allegedly overdosing on viagra and had their non-wives please them and they felt happy about it and that happened deep into the 2000’s in the meantime China ploughed along and created innovative technology, so innovative that a German intelligence officer told the Dutch Welle (I think) was the one that gave us “We do not understand that technology” it was that advanced and in 2020 Statista reported that countries who had Huawei showed us that they had download speeds of 377.2 Mbps whilst the US only had 52 Mbps. We can get all kind of reasoning, but the truth is that the United States is massively behind. (according to Statista) So then we get to the stealing part. So where are these 13 billions in Venezuelan oil revenue? So, recent reports and congressional investigations accuse President  Trump of taking or misusing money through classified document retention, cryptocurrency ventures, and blocked federal funds. And as such, we see Huawei getting accused of these acts? Whilst Huawei is showing the world the Matebook fold. 

It blows whatever Apple/Microsoft/Google has out of the water. That is not theft, they innovated over a year ago and they blew whatever the United States has out of the water, that is not theft that is innovation and (for the clarity of Taylor Stout) Innovation is “introducing a new idea, method, product, or way of doing things that creates fresh value” and it is something that Huawei has been doing for over a decade. And when we get the real list, a clear list of what was stolen from the United States business corporations, just pretend it is a Christmas list. 

So when we get to “Huawei conspired to steal trade secrets from five US companies, including operating system source code for internet routers from Cisco Systems and a robotic arm to test phones from T-Mobile, to gain an unfair competitive advantage and grow its business, the prosecutor told jurors.” I am not going into some ‘they would never do that’ part. Basically all corporations are alike and I reckon that Chinese firms are likely the same. But my resounding setting is that (at present) Huawei is the real innovator. Apple was innovative, Google likely is innovative at present and in my personally biased view Microsoft is basically a has been. Huawei has been pouncing the 4G and 5G settings and as I see it, those banning Huawei are likely shooting themselves in the foot. But I am not the real expert in these matters, but (as far as I can tell) the entire ‘anti-Huawei’ setting is brought on by the United States by there anti-Chinese sentiment. So as this trial is likely to represent an episode of Days of our lives, we need to see where this ends. Likely it will get really ugly as the United States is bleeding revenue all over the place and whilst we see “The U.S. federal budget deficit for fiscal year 2026 has reached approximately $1.8 trillion as of July, with total projections nearing $1.9 trillion to $2 trillion by the end of the fiscal year” and that is before ewe realise that their interest payment for over $1 trillion is likely due too. And in the setting we see that innovative Huawei is more than likely to take a chunk of market share from corporations in the USA. 

We can optionally debate if that is likely to happen, but the anti-USA sentiment is getting stronger in Europe, the Commonwealth and the Gulf States all whilst these places have a growing interest in Chinese deals. And as the article implies that we will get months and months of anti-China sentiments. All whilst the world has had it with the United States, as such these anti-China sentiments will not go far outside of the United States. And whilst we get the prosecution side of ‘legal grandstanding’ and there could be a pilot, a twist (I reckon that any drama setting running 62 seasons) will have a few plots, twists and cliffhangers. A setting we will see evolve over the next few weeks in the newspapers and these media romcoms called ‘News at 9’ (could be 7 or 8) I’ll end this story about Microsoft and their issue they had with Netscape in 1998, at what point did they label Microsoft as a criminal enterprise? Just asking.

Have a great day and enjoy the legal twists the news will be serving up in the next few weeks.

Life in turmoil

Im not sure where I stand at present. I am seeing all kind of settings. X is now following me (not are if that is real or some scammer) I get unwarranted direct messages, who apparently vanished a little later and I am seeing populist statements on all kinds of social media. Not sure what to make of it. Still getting shafted by LinkedIn/Microsoft they told me I was looked up twice last week, whilst I can see three directly and I know of two others, so 5 (I reckon more) looked me up, but that LinkedIn/Microsoft setting told me two looked me up, So is this an example of fake AI, or is this a sales technique and if it is a sales technique it is a bad one, because as I see it, there is a clear need for a Chinese version of LinkedIn. Apart from that, Google missed the pole by a mile, and whilst at least two called were lost as my phone was apparently in Do Not Disturb, all whist I have never ever used that mode. And what I had last wee I had today again. My new Google Pixel 11 now switches on WiFI all whilst I never invited it to do so (as such Sundar is basically enabling cybercrimes). As such a word of warning to Sundar Pichai (the big boss there) My Google Pixel 11, is now less functional than my Google Pixel 9 ever was. There are a few issues with my Watch 5 as well, but I am not sure if that is an app setting or if it lost functionality against my Watch 2. These guys are so into ‘innovation’ mode that the basics are passed over. I think it is disgraceful and you need to clean up your settings and soon. There is now a decent setting for Huawei to come on in and take over market share. I have been a Google phone fan for a long time (this is my third one) but at this speed I am switching to Huawei the next time around. 

So my life is a little in turmoil, because if it ain’t broke don’t fix it and I need to fix a lot at present and that is never good for my peace of mind. In addition to all this Al Jazeera gives us ‘Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia could activate defence pact, Pakistan says’ as such there is less stability coming our ways and whilst we get the Guardian giving its a few hours ago ‘Houthis seize key Yemeni port of Mocha in drive to take control of Red Sea coast’ there is now an option for Iran to resupply Houthi terrorists, as such I think there is a decent setting that the Mecca defence pact will see activation. I am happy that I gave my harbour solution to Saudi Arabia as well, as such they could shut it down completely (and leave the Iranian smugglers out of options. But the setting isn’t that Houthi terrorists got a harbour. It becomes who else is supplying these Houthi terrorists, because as I see it, the map is all wring, this cannot be a simple Iranian ploy, or at least not only. There is another player in these town aiding these terrorists. 

But what is really happening there? As I see it, there is too little and Iran cannot be in this alone, someone is ‘aiding’ the Houthi terrorists. So as I see it, the defense pact that is in place might be more important than anyone thinks and It is my believe that this pact should aid Saudi Arabia. There is a simple setting to this. The Wall Street Journal gave us ‘Trump’s Top Advisers Confront Possibility That Iran War Lasts Through End of Term’ less than 20 hours ago. And after President Trump has given the world that ‘he’ won that war over 66 times, there is a smallest chance that the Iran war is one the United States might lose and at that point Saudi Arabia and the rest of the gulf states might get the impact of that shown at their borders. As such the pressure needs to be removed between the Yemeni borders in the form of Houthi terrorist and this defense pact might be the solution. As I see it, Saudi Arabia cannot count on anything coming from the United States. At Present we see that President Trump is offering $5000 dollars to anyone if he winds the midterms. That could be up to 200,000,000 time $5000, which boils down to a cool trillion and I am not certain if the coffers of the United States treasury could validate this. This is beside the point whether the would be legal, because as I see it, in the Commonwealth it is illegal as it is illegal in plenty of civil law counties in Europe, but I am not versatile in US Laws, but I reckon it could be illegal there too. So what do you do with a president who advocates optional illegal acts? As such the Mecca defense agreement might be what Saudi Arabia needs to rely on at present. 

As such I am in turmoil, or at least my life is, things go wrong all over the place and the people we rely on are nowhere to be seen. I am partially appalled with the politicians in the United Kingdom and Australia to stay silent in case of the trade war between Canada and the United States. It is me personal believe that these commonwealth nations need to speak out in favour of Canada. And whilst Rolling Stone steps up their game by giving us ‘How Mark Carney became leader of the free world by standing up to Trump’, it seems that Australia and the UK remain largely silent and all along Trump gives us some news on beating up Mark Carney as a Hockey player (all whilst others give us news that unlike PM Carney, Trump cannot hold himself on the ice on skates) and Trump is giving us the entire North America, and Greenland drenched in the US flag. And there is limited news on all of this. That might be the most unsettling side of it all. As I personally see it, Carney is the PM of the entire Commonwealth as I see it and it is my personal believe that PM Carney is due a massive knighthood (Order of the Garter) from Charles III, King of the United Kingdom I reckon that he is worthy of this in the very least. So much turmoil and I am not the only one saying this, there are more that give similar views. But as I see it, the politicians in the Commonwealth remain largely quit. It is embarrassing to say the least. As such it is my delight to wave of some of that stress by slapping Sundar Pichai silly (with words) and it is the smallest of stress settings that I am seeing at present. But tomorrow (which is already now) so a few hours form now, the sun might come up and Google might fix a few things, because I paid good money ahead of schedule (my phone could have survived another year, my Google watch 2 probably not) So as I see it, stress is what we make, with additional help form the surrounding settings we see. 

So even if my life is in turmoil, I wish you all a great day.
