With Ice please

There was a setting I entertained and I gave it a lot of thought. The idea of striking against Iran after they attacked the UAE and Saudi Arabia gave me joy. As such I considered a way to impact their infrastructure. I know it is so easy to send a missiles there, but that merely causes some structural damage whilst Iran gets ready to reroute whatever they have. So, I have it another setting. I looked at a few settings with the diagrams that are out there and it helped me to create a new ‘sticky ice charge’ not a great name, but it does the job. 

So, this is what set it off and to consider the real deal, we have

This is what I had to work with and I created two solutions. The first one is seen below

The setting is simple, the blue part is liquid nitrogen, the middle part is C4 (with a small detonator) which gets activated 10 second after the sticky ball is fired. the collar is sticky to keep it in place. The ball is fired at the fastener and as the sticky ball breaks the fastener is frozen by liquid nitrogen making is massively brittle, the small explosion will shatter the fastener. Do this over one length or rail on both sides that rail is now loose and when the train drives over this, it all goes south from there, derailed train, wagons optionally falling over, it’s a whole new game. The simple setting of a derailed train, that track will be out for weeks (optionally months) no matter how many resources you throw at it, the moment it is way out of towns, there will be delay upon delay. And that is the mere start of it. When it is used in combination of the harbour solution, I reckon that the infrastructure of Iran gets a partial collapse. 

Then I got to thinking on a second solution, a ribbon with C4 and Nitrogen delivered to the tracks. On both sides with magnets sticking it to the rails with an optional second pressure point or connection about 30 seconds before the charge. 

Will it work? I believe so, but I am an incurable optimist. Anyway this IP is freely given to the UAE and to Saudi Arabia, so they make make something of it. I might be to old to fight, but I can become the next best thing. A nightmare to Iran and with these settings, their 13,000 kilometers ca now be sold as scrap metal (a delusional thought, I know) but in all these settings we see on YouTube and TV, no one is considering destroying infrastructure. It might not be sexy but it tends to work.

Anyway, I believe I have done my bit for the UAE (Saudi Arabia too), as such it is now up to them to make this reality or not. So you all have a great day today.

Wrecking my brain

That is at times the exercise. It is not one I like, but there are a few settings that have been plaguing me. First there was the setting that someone had ‘an idea’ and they basically repeat the idea I spouted on February 1st (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/02/01/sinking-a-dilemma/) where I basically nullified the setting that Iran has with the Strait of Hormuz. No biggie, but the idea ‘now’ belongs to the UAE (as it was on their turf), so today there was some ‘intelligent’ person who started to debunk the idea (nothing wrong with that) but that person goes on on how high the mountains there are. So, what does that have anything to do with that? The nice thing of a tunnel is that it goes UNDER the mountain. And then that person goes on that such a solution will cost $200 billion. So when we consider the setting with the Eurotunnel we get

“The Channel Tunnel (“Eurotunnel”) cost approximately £9.5 billion (roughly $14.5 billion USD in 1994) to build, significantly exceeding its initial 1985 estimate of £4.8 billion. Construction took six years (1988–1994) and required 13,000 workers to dig the 50-kilometer (31-mile) tunnel, which in today’s money is valued at over £12 billion.”

So, why does it take 16 times more now? I have an issue with that equation. And there are settings that do apply, but to get 2-3 tunnel diggers to do that track a few times might not be that much more, as I see it, the 3 tunnel diggers will work in layers. Top middle and bottom layer. I personally think that is it and it doesn’t require much more (perhaps it does and I lack the knowledge of this) and I admit that it might take 5 layers, but at least I am trying to find solutions. The track I had in mind might need a little adjustment, but beyond that I think the idea is sound and now that Iran is blocking the straight of Hormuz, the idea becomes a lot more pressing. So this was the first setting for me. 

Then I suddenly got an idea in the digital realm. You see in the 70’s there were these books, I believe that Esso or Shell released them. These books had pages with fields, tennis courts and a few other sports. You placed a transparent rubber sticker on the page and the rubber would keep it in place. There were all kinds of balls, arrows and lines to add to this and the result was a goal or point setting. They covered field hockey, football, tennis, and several other sports. I had such a book and we were all trying to make the most elaborate and stunning goals that the sport could have. Now we have digital options. But consider this. Like a Flash setting. We have a starting position with the figurine and the end position of that person. And now over that line we can animate (and morph) the player so that the animation is smooth. All this already exists. The ball will go through a similar track (via the line) but no morphing is required. Consider this to be a ‘vanilla’ person and as we select the team the outfit is made to match. What would be new is the option to attach commentary, so you become the sports commentator. And in that setting we now have a digital version of this and consider all these kids no longer on social media. So we will create new places, not social media, where they can share these idea’s and sports consider that we can use all the summer sports and all the winter sports. As the library of actions is increased there will be the option of all these animations to be completed and as such we get an entirely new setting for youthful players and the not so youthful ones who are into sports will also revere the opportunity given here. It would be something like Macromedia Director and it will be more polished as it is limited to sports and based on morphing figurines, timeline and sport items. The commentary is a new feature that we never had before, as such there is plenty of IP in here, because the old ideas are based on non-digital sources. And there is plenty of adjusted sports that could be added (like polo) waterpolo existed if I remember correctly, but there are plenty of games that never made that setting, as such they could be added, because the engine that drives it would be the same. Some people try to come up with something no one has ever seen before, I look behind me and see what others have forgotten and it could be made malleable in the new age, on new grounds and still the IP could result in patents. What a lovely thought. 

The third setting was an idea for a script, but as Iran started being nasty, that idea could be the new option for Saudi Arabia and the UAE to develop and deploy against Iran and there was still the idea of closing their harbours, but not on their terms. A harbour is only useful if it can be utilized, take that away and you have all these cranes collecting dust for months, if not years. I can be a mean piece of work if I set my mind to it and as I see it, both the UAE and Saudi Arabia could use my level of sneakiness. But about that later. Going back to the new IP, the idea that the animation is set also gives the stage that the export could be YouTube video and with the commentary in place, it could sound a new age for whomever likes to be creative and we all adhere to our creative mindsets and thus far I like where the idea is taking me. But I have other things to do, as such I leave it here for others to pick up that baton. 

That is how I roll, those wanting to hang onto every idea THEY have end up having nothing and that is not me. So whilst I place this I go on with the options I am working on. Have a great day today, I am now 300 minutes from breakfast, time to learn if I can still snore like a sawmill, you all have a lovely day.

The junkie says What?

Yesterday I was woken up by an incredible story we see got to see on BBC. The world has gone to hell and people died because their only response was that they had bo fibre, no sense of self and an insatiable need for external confirmation. That is how I see it. The article (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c89kdpjn7eqo) gives us ‘‘I was on Instagram all day’ – woman tells landmark trial’ where we see the start giving us “A young woman, who is suing Meta and Google over what she claims is the addictive nature of social media, has told a jury her childhood years were taken over by her use of Instagram and Youtube.” It is actually hard to keep focussed keeping a serious nature here. The idea that she has the gall to claim “what she claims is the addictive nature of social media”, it is almost like the girl who claims that she didn’t know that the penis inserted inserted in the vagina could lead to pregnancy, because it felt so good. It might not be the complete truth (in many ways) but there is something like discipline of the soul. Which is continued by ““I stopped engaging with family because I was spending all my time on social media,” said the woman, who is known as KGM or Kaley, to protect her privacy.

She told the court in Los Angeles that she began using YouTube at the age of 6 and Instagram aged 9 and encountered no barriers to prevent her using them despite her young age.” So at that point? Or at which point are the parents claiming some responsibility in all go this? So when we get “While much of the court proceedings so far have focused on Instagram and Meta, Google’s YouTube is also a defendant in the lawsuit. TikTok and Snapchat were initially sued as well, but the companies settled shortly before the trial was scheduled to begin. The terms of those settlements were not disclosed.” I honestly do not see (I kinda do) why TikTok and Snapchat settled this. The entire manifest of entitlements here are (as I personally see it) completely out of whack. 

So when we get to “Now 20 years old, Kaley told the court that looking at Instagram was “the first thing” she did when she woke up each day and that she continued “all day” until she went to sleep at night, leading to difficulties at school, at home and with her mental health. She also watched YouTube videos for hours on end, noting that the platform’s “autoplay” feature, where a new video starts automatically after the previous one has ended, kept her on it. Failing to get enough “likes” on her social media posts left her feeling “insecure” or “ugly” she said.” So, at what time will the court ask questions of the parents? The word ‘parent’ is not mentioned even once, which with a starting age of 6 (and 9) is a pretty basic setting in any dealing with the optional setting of Doli Incapax, a legal common law principle presuming children aged 10 to under 14 years lack the capacity to be criminally responsible because they cannot distinguish right from wrong. And in that setting the parents are called in to answer a few questions. That is what I would do and the setting that I would press for, and beyond the setting of all of this and YouTube is in the benches for I know what reason, because YouTube has an ‘off’ switch, I press it all the time. I am (at times) a few hours on YouTube, it is how I get information as the News is no longer presented on TV, they call it entertainment and whilst I don’t have the luxury of seeking out all the TV channels at time, they all present their data on YouTube (as well as a few other channels). In all this it is up to me to decide when I need to get food, shop for items and even get to people. And as I am no billionaire (not even a millionaire) I have plenty of reasons to feel insecure, but my mother and father always taught me to “try again at the difficult task until you succeed”, my father was an alcoholic bully, but he did imbue me with a workaholic nature, it is the one part he gave me and that is the part I always saw as good. All other good things came from my mother, except smoking, she was a chain smoker I never took to that stuff. And I turned out pretty decent (or so I believe) at least I got the ball and fumbled it away from DARPA over half a dozen times, I created over half a dozen games (on paper), I wrote several scripts and that was just for starters. I also has tech support person, trainer and consultant for over two decades. As such I started work before that insecure little girl was born. But did I complain? I even released several pieces of what could be known as Apple IP to the public domain. Do I cry? Nope, I am merely putting a footprint on this world and there is a fair chance that over 99.999% of the human population has never heard of me. I personally believe that I matter (unless I move at the speed of light, then I am energy), the question is ‘Do I matter to others?’ I don’t care. I am who I am and I am solid in my convictions, they might be wrong or right. They are mine. So where does this leave you? Do I care? No, not really. Do you care? If yes, you should read something else. Still the BBC gives us “By age 10, she was engaging in self-harm, cutting herself, Kaley said. She has seen a therapist since she was 13. Kaley’s testimony comes a week after she attended court to sit directly across from Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s co-founder and chief executive, as he spent around seven hours being questioned by lawyers, the first time the billionaire had ever appeared before a jury.

Meta’s lawyers have broadly argued that Kaley’s struggles with her mental health stemmed from problems with her family life, not her use of Instagram.” So at this point I ask again, where are the parents? If she was seeing a therapist since 10 they should be in the picture and they are not. Why not? So when we get to “Paul Schmidt, a lead lawyer for Meta, pointed during the first day of the trial to statements Kaley had made prior to filing her lawsuit about her home life, including a difficult relationship with her mother that had led to thoughts of self-harm.” We again see the need for the parents to be included in all off this and where was the father? All this leads to a view of a setting where (as I see it) Mark ‘Facebook’ Zuckerberg has no part in all of this, or at least a lot less then the BBC would like him to be. The only thing I see coming from all this is some loser who is blaming the world for her own undoing. It might seem harsh, but that is the setting I see. I don’t blame others for my lack of a Ferrari (not my favourite car anyway) ad there is so much more I could have achieved, but I believe that is because others never looked in my direction. It was not their job to look in my direction. It was my job to get noticed and putting a few DARPA solutions online is the way to go I say. Also putting the Apple IP ideas online might get me noticed by Timmy the Cook (a culinary expert at that Granny Smith corporation) we work with the tools we have and that is as much as I can do. I don’t cry, I don’t sulk, I merely pick up the next challenge and I solve it or a toss it aside. It is called strength of character, I don’t seek out the ‘approval of the masses’ it has no real function, other then it might get a few ‘likes’ and they don’t translate into real solutions. 

So have a good day and as I am about to enjoy a Saturday breakfast I tell you that I will be OK (Coffee usually gives that warm feeling that I need) is it additive? Yes, I guess so, but I only have one coffee in the morning, that is the consequence of a budget. We all have them and there is no Willy mindset involved (to explain that, it was a character in Popeye) who revered the expression “I’ll gladly pay you tomorrow for a hamburger today”, which is how the United States government does its business and it has done so over 38 trillion times. So, you see how it ends and no President without an exit strategy in that matter will give you any solace here. 

Have a good one

Out of the blue

So there I was meeting up with my half brother Insomnia. When that rascal comes calling you can pretty much kiss sleep goodbye and it is my turn to be all over the field again. But then out of the blue an idea hit me. You see I have gotten into the habit of looking at (and listening to) Ambience videos. It started around Christmas with Hogwarts Legacy movies. But as I saw more movies my mind started to think. You see most of them are basically graphic DML applications. Don’t get me wrong, there are a fair view of them made by artists who go all in on 3D sculpting, but as I got to think a few things through, I saw a gap where optionally Google Dropped the ball (yet again) and as all Sony TVs have google TV, the idea started to form. 

You see DML can be awesome and in this case it is. And here is the setting:

You start with the setting, giving you space, a house, a spaceship, a space station. From there we get the specifics like Themed (think a game, TV series or a setting like Cyberpunk, Interior, weather and whether this is a light of a dark setting from there we get to the music like music style, rhythm, ambience music and volume. From there we can go back to stage one, or we can select sample so we see the low resolution sample. From there we get the final product and that is the one we safe/Download so we can watch this without using bandwidth. The stage needs optionally one addition to the Sony TV’s and that is a memory slot, optionally we can serve it via the DVD/4K player which has a memory card or your console. This setting is already with the bulk of the people, as such it is a mere adjustment. Google will be able to sell a whole lot of subscriptions (which allows for the download of 4K files, or people can optionally do this in the office (to the bosses I say, I never told your employees this and you aren’t reading this) ;-P

And it goes further, the people who actually design these settings can offer interiors that the people can buy for a few dollars and the good ones will make a decent bundle, some makers like View Escape are already putting them on YouTube, so you can just download those. A setting that allows Google to enrich their options and give more to the people (at a price) and this can be set to a much bigger stage, but the basic is already here and I reckon that the millions of big TV’s are out there (not just Sony) and soon there will be a setting where the TV is not just a screen, it will be art on display and that is something that Google could enable. 

Perhaps the idea is silly, but I do believe that there is a market for this and seeing the amount of Ambiance Video’s already on YouTube, I feel certain that this is a bigger market than anyone is considering. Have a great day, it’s Wednesday now for me.

Cut through the presentations

Yup, I have had enough of the presented media on how Canadians are not that much of a bother to America’s tourism setting. And for this I put attention on Now Toronto as we take a look at their side (at https://nowtoronto.com/news/are-toronto-residents-skipping-u-s-travel-heres-what-theyre-saying/) where we see ‘Are Toronto residents skipping U.S. travel? Here’s what they’re saying’ we are being told the first direct bullet points (a nice way of summary to the setting).

  • A new Abacus Data poll found nearly one in four Canadians have opted out of traveling to the U.S. due to feelings about the Trump administration, a trend reflected in Statistics Canada data showing sharp drops in both vehicle and air return trips from the U.S. in late 2025.
  • StatCan reported Canadian resident return trips by vehicle from the U.S. fell 28 per cent year-over-year in November 2025, while air travel dropped 12.1 per cent, even as overseas travel by Canadians increased 14 per cent during the same period.
  • Some Toronto residents told Now Toronto they are intentionally avoiding travel to the U.S. for political, ethical, and economic reasons, choosing alternative destinations instead, with younger Canadians more likely to scrutinize peers who continue to vacation there.

Three points that make sense and that accounts for a lot more damage than anyone would have guessed at any point in time. I particularly like the ‘peer pressure’ point. It’s like a parent gets to hear ‘Really? There?’ by their 5 year old. A nice figment of my imaginary pressure seen on the inside of my eyelids. 
And with the setting given at “Some Torontonians have told Now Toronto they’ve been boycotting travel to the U.S. in the time being. “I just feel like my dollar can be spent better elsewhere,” Olivia, a resident, said. “With all of the situation going on down there, I don’t feel like going.” Olivia said the decision to avoid the U.S. solidified in early 2025 as government policies and climate shifted. Instead, Olivia said she’s opting to travel to other regions.”

And it is this side that amounts to the bulk of other Commonwealthian’s who seem to decide on Abu Dhabi in the UAE over anywhere in the US where the vacation seems genuine and is also one of the safest places on the planet and whilst those are mere cost dressings, the food prices in America are getting out of hand and they are really fitting the budget aware traveller in Abu Dhabi, that is beside the other entertainment they have on one island and some hotels add entrance to one of these places every day for those staying in their hotels, as such we see benefit on benefit. So whilst the pressure seems to be adding to European places (like Euro Disney, Efteling and other locations) It seems that the pristine settings for Abu Dhabi is getting an amazing appeal and that is merely the first glance for a tourist. There is so much more to see and do in the UAE and now that Abu Dhabi is a mere 95 minutes from Dubai by train, that is a vacation that starlet tourist will wow for.

And whilst we still see “Olivia said she’s also more conscious of her spending choices, focusing on buying Canadian products to ensure she isn’t supporting the U.S. economy. Joel, a dual-citizen of both the U.S. and Canada says traveling there can be morally complicated. “Any political differences we have is outweighed by the fact that I have family there,” he said. “I have kids who want to see their aunts and uncles and cousins. Joel has noticed quite a difference in airport traffic in the last year or so when it comes to traveling south. “It’s faster at the border,” he said. “Because there’s no line-ups, there’s not a lot of people going.”” And as I see it, we are off to the races and as the UAE (Abu Dhabi) is erecting a massive Harry Potter addition to their Warner Brothers park, we see that also Disney is being added to Yas Island. As it is supposed to open in 2028, so there is time and there is already a lot to do, but these two players will undoubtedly become the death of American theme parks for many Canadians and now that they have an alternative, I reckon American tourism will get rightfully ignored by its northern neighbors and whilst the Winter-geese might be forced to keep their places for now. It seems that Florida will have a cruel awakening in the period 2025-2029. As as another source gave us a few hours ago that ‘Florida wants to win back its Canadian tourists’ and as we are given (at https://www.orlandoweekly.com/news/florida-wants-to-win-back-its-canadian-tourists/) “Tourism leaders in Florida are reaching out to their Canadian counterparts as the U.S. has seen a travel backlash over the words and actions of President Donald Trump. As Visit Florida compiles 2025 tourism figures, the agency’s President and CEO Bryan Griffin and Carol Dover, the president and CEO of the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association, are setting up a meeting with Canadian officials.” I’m certain that us useless as the settings of hardship were pushed through by Washington DC. So we might consider whatever we want but a vagrant in Orlando called Bumble Dora (I swear that was his name) waved a twig and whispered ‘Canadia Phohibitus’ as such Florida might wish for whatever they want, but foreign policy was dictated to all by Washington and everyone decided they have hd enough of America in that setting and when you consider what the UAE offers and what America doesn’t (or no longer) offers that reality is setting in for global tourism. So when we get the ‘presented’ “In December, Visit Florida estimated 34.339 million people traveled into the state between the start of July and end of September, up from 34.239 million during the same third quarter period in 2024. The numbers showed slight year-to-year growth in overseas visitors and domestic travelers.” You know that you are being presented a gamble with loaded dice and I reckon that not merely the Canadians have had enough of that. Consider the video that we are given (at https://youtu.be/hkr0WfTufJo?si=4gSmVZ9riFvUobmz) and the empty corridors and plane. As such a mere 100,000 less tourist is a BS setting that we are given, all whilst several sources are giving the world that the United States is getting hit by $12.5 Billion lower revenue. I think that they are off by well over $30 billion more than that (for settings that suddenly no longer matter), all whilst they were used to pump up their views when it dod matter. So whilst we understand that Florida is trying to save what it can, but to give it that swing whilst we see videos all over YouTube and TikTok appear of an empty Orlando International Airport (MCO) is not the way to go about it, but that might merely be my dubious view on the matter.

But now we get to the data that I didn’t know about. We are given “Abacus Data also reported that 33 per cent of Canadians would think less of peers who continued to travel to the U.S.

The data suggested the likelihood of those polled who would scrutinize anyone traveling increased the younger the person was. “Nearly half of those aged 18 to 29 say they would think less of someone close to them for vacationing in the United States,” Abacus Data stated. “That drops among those aged 30 to 44, falls further among those 45 to 59, and remains lower among those 60 and over.”” So consider this setting with University students, as I see it, that will stop people from traveling towards the United States in plenty of ways and whilst Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton and Montreal all have their own Universities, I reckon that they will stop a lot more than currently seen. Consider that any shop would have to admit that they went to the United States for a vacation. They would lose so many customers in the blink of an eye. I reckon the hardship of Florida is merely just beginning. And with every event where President Trump opens his mouth, that hardship merely increases. Don’t take my word for it, but it seems that someone named Elisabeth Booth will do something about that really soon. No idea what she is inferring but I reckon she knows best (or at least I hope so).

And this setting is not merely apt for Canadians. I have heard similar settings in Sydney, we tend to support our Canadian brothers (sisters too). So we are also looking at places like Abu Dhabi and Europe. And whilst we are given “Australians can travel for short trips, without a visa, to the Schengen area for up to 90 days in any 180-day period” and as I see it, I don’t know any vacation that ever goes beyond 30 days and set against that “U.S. nonimmigrant visa fees for 2026 generally cost US$185–$315 for tourist/student visas and A new $250 “Visa Integrity Fee” is expected for many nonimmigrant visas in 2026”, so free or a VISA well over $565 dollars? Yes, I’ll take the non-US option too. For the record a tourist visa for the UAE costs $150, a simple setting where the USA priced themselves out of a market who needs to stop costs in this hard driven economy. A setting that is now hurting the settings of the United States to well over 2029 air present. I reckon that vacation in the United States are done for until long after 2029, because when the first stories come into the many destination on how their vacation to Abu Dhabi was ‘magical’ the hesitaters will come running and that will bring serious money from every other place towards the UAE and not towards the United States. Seems simple, doesn’t it?

Have a great day today.

What is the real alert?

That is the stage I am seeing. Not some (as I personally see it) an alert cry of Barclays getting out of Silver, offering $312 per ounce as the ‘alerting’ video is giving rise to, it looks lovely, but if you check even one setting, we see when we look deeper “a dramatic 2025 where, despite huge short positions, silver prices soared above $90, forcing institutions like TD Securities to close positions at significant losses, as retail and institutional demand causes a severe supply squeeze.” As such was the video a position so that others holding a short setting might unload it unto others? I have no knowledge of commodities, but Abu Dhabi and Dubai were ‘accused’ as the people ‘demanding’ silver as a real commodity, not a settlement or a dollar setting. As such I got curious. There is no 2 week calendar anywhere, but perhaps I wasn’t looking where I needed to look. At present we are given “Barclays holds a strongly bullish position on silver for 2026-2027, projecting significant price increases to $75 $75/oz and $65 $65/oz, respectively, due to expectations of a Federal Reserve easing cycle, a weaker U.S. dollar, and inflationary pressures. These forecasts represent a substantial upgrade in their precious metals outlook, marking a very constructive view on the sector.”, as such I see no closing any market in 2 weeks, or any $312 offering and then there are some questions on billions of ounces the do not exist. 

That setting and the accusation of  fraud is as far as I can tell a setting of optimal liability towards YouTube and its ‘deliverer’ as YouTuber ‘Crises Signal’ what is true? Is he right and is the complete media and banking system corrupt to the core? I would believe the first part, but there are issues with the second part and the accusations towards Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Riyadh does not sit well with me. As I see it, Islam does not reward the deceivers and these three places are loaded with true believers in Islam. Yes, I know that anything is fair in war, but these parties aren’t interested in war, they merely want what is due to them (as we get presented) and is this where the fish are captured to ‘buy’ the short positions. At least that is what I can get out of this and there is a loosely connected second part. 

It was given to me by the Guardian (at https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2026/jan/26/death-penalty-saudi-arabia-executions-essam-shazly-human-rights) where we see ‘‘Don’t they have mercy?’: A mother on losing her son in a record year of Saudi executions’ and the Guardian always ready to collect on ‘human’ suffering. The story is seemingly about “Essam al-Shazly is the latest foreign national to die in a ‘horrifying’ surge in capital punishment under the rule of Mohammed bin Salman” but you are being lied to. Not outright lies, the stories are to ‘include’ and connect Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud to what is happening here, but as I personally see it, he might not even be aware of what is going on. You see, Saudi Arabia has an absolute no tolerance on drugs. This is not new, this has been the case for a long time and as such this is Saudi law. As such the courts convict him and executed him. There is every chance that the Crown Prince might not be aware of the existence of Essam al-Shazly and we are getting shown “far from being a drug trafficker her son fished for a living and was coerced into smuggling, then forced into a confession by Saudi officials.” No matter what we are told, he did smuggle and that comes with the punishment of death. And the ‘forced into a confession’ sounds nice, but did that actually happen? It might, it might not. But the people reading this are thinking “oh, what a poor drug dealer” but you would be wrong. There is an absolute law in Saudi Arabia and it states that in this war on drugs “including the death penalty for smugglers and repeat offenders.” As such it was a given and this has been a given fact for years but these dealers finding mules or smugglers giving out an assumed story “that they have several profitable lines and only those who never done this have a good chance of coming through” all whilst 95% (a speculated number) is getting nabbed at the borders. I reckon that there profit margin is a thousand fold, so if one in a hundred makes it through they still make a fortune and as I see it Essam al-Shazly is one of the 99 who didn’t make it and that is a shame, but the punishment of these crimes is known. As such I wonder who is sacrificing these 99 people so that they get one through and they get the 100 times the investment. I think that these 100 all get send through at nearly the same time, which would buckle the Police system and the bigger the chance would be that 2 out of 100 get through, but this is a pure speculative thought on what is going on. 

So when we get to ““The fault lies with the judge; don’t they have any mercy at all? Drugs are harmful it is true, but you caught a carrier, he is not a dealer,” she says. “Punish him for that.”” No, it does not lie with the judge, the punishment was clear on all smugglers and a carriers is a smuggler, even if you call that person a mule. As such he got punished for that. So whilst we then get the actual price of the Guardian “While Saudi Arabia tries to project a benign international image through hosting major sporting and cultural events, including 2034 World Cup, the execution of hundreds of mostly impoverished foreigners for non-violent drug crimes has gone largely unnoticed and unreported. In some cases, they were sentenced to death for trafficking drugs in return for the promise of just a few hundred dollars.” And in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia there are no ‘non-violent’ drug crimes, there are drug crimes and most of them face the death penalty, and as I see it, merely the first time user who is caught might not get the death penalty. The setting might seem harsh, but Saudi Arabia is not in the market of waging a war on drugs, they are all sentenced to die. And considering that in 2024 we were given “Since 1971, the U.S. has spent more than a trillion dollars on the war on drugs”, I agree that something needs to be done and Saudi Arabia took the other path. And unless there is a better way to capture the people behind the drugs trade, it seems that Saudi Arabia has the only path available to them. Perhaps when the world realizes that any drug action towards Saudi Arabia comes with the death penalty, smugglers and mules will consider that they are in a useless battle they cannot win, because a 1%-3% survival chance is not a real chance you should ever consider. 

And the setting that the Guardian gives us all might seem humanitarian, but it is deceptive. The rules were out there in the open, the Guardian had access to them, So giving is a cry story about a mother exploiting her grief to get a story might be one of the lowest things they have ever done. But when it comes to Saudi hatred the Guardian has always done what it needed to do to get other Saudi haters on the same page of whatever they deem a worthy cause, but I think that America has had its days with the war on drugs and as such I think that the Saudi way might be best for Saudi Arabia and the 30-40 arrests Egyptian smugglers is a price to pay, lets face it, they have 118 million people, they can lose 50, considering the price that Saudi Arabia has to pay when 1000 get addicted you have to consider 0.00004237% versus 0.02832%, in the setting of numbers, the Egyptians lose. When you look at the numbers, the KSA is keeping its population as safe as it can and that is if only 1000 get affected, when the numbers increase the Egyptians end up having even less of a chance. The Guardian needs to get its head straight. We all have priorities and the KSA has its priority and it has capital punishment, as such it seems simple. Someone is making actual war on drugs and is showing no compassion. As such I might suggest an advertisement on Egyptian TV where the KSA makes its sentiment known on TV and newspapers, perhaps when less people take the dangerous step of heading down this path something might be resolved. Perhaps Egyptian authorities will get a name or a place where from they operate. Did the Guardian consider this step? Were they aware of what they were doing?

I don’t know, I am merely asking questions and I am not asking them from Saudi Arabia as their point of view is clear. I might not completely agree with it, but it is their country, they are their laws and 90% of that nation is Sunni Muslim, so are all these convicted people Muslims? As such there is a setting of Muslim law and there is a larger setting here that the Guardian is seemingly actively avoiding. 

Have a great day, make a profit today, but I foresee a danger if you depend on some silver stories out there.

The wrongly seen direction

That is at times a question and at times a statement. Now consider your PlayStation (or Nintendo) and I think that Nintendo has a small advantage here. So consider a business setting (for the exercise) There is a given that “Project statistics involve analyzing data related to project performance (like budget, timeline, scope) and project management success rates, with common metrics including cost performance, progress, and stakeholder satisfaction, while tools like R help in complex analysis for academic or business research. Key figures show many successful projects usually have strong sponsors.” So consider this towards the upcoming PS6, isn’t it time to give the users that ability to see where they spend their times on? Like Nintendo with a calendar and a setting where you can see app use per user (so you can have a guest account for others if needed) and a setting where you see usage of apps like YouTube, Netflix and others, whilst also seeing games and now it gives a timeline optionally per game or per gaming house, per gaming style. I am certain that some are already doing it for themself but as I see it, it has never been offered to the users. Consider that ‘your’ online shop like Nintendo or Sony Store could crush those numbers and say ‘Hey, you spend a lot of time in this style of game and these games are now in the budget range’ this is not always a welcome setting but for a lot who have to mind their pennies, the setting of a similar game like the one you love to play is a welcome sight to your wallet. The other setting is that you could export your statistics on a game, or on anything to your memory stick and then spread it to your online presence. It is a small setting that I have no seen on the PS3, PS4, PS4pro or PS5. I think that this is an almost mandatory next step, especially as the gamers in the world will have a better understanding if the optional benefits of Business Intelligence when applied to whatever matters to them the most.

The benefits are that most data is already captured for the gamers, optionally per game, so there is not much reengineering required. The calendar is a welcome addition and game makers can add (as per request of the gamer) the upcoming release dates for games they are announcing and that will be in the interest of most gamers. Now consider that the use of Achievements and other setting can now be set outside of the games they are chasing and for that there are many consideration to be made. For Sony this would also give a new handle of appealing to players on a global setting. Because let’s face it, they are driven to success and to see where that success is captured is as essential for Sony (Nintendo too) as it is for the gamers. You can ‘hide’ behind the hours played on for example, Hogwarts Legacy and it goes beyond the 150,000 hours played in weeks x, The idea that we have 15,000 gamers who spend 1-2 hours on it (still an important metric) but it is the rest of the 120,000 hours played by 600 gamers in week x, that is where the real treasure lies and offering that to the gamers has benefits beyond measure. Optionally it could be linked to cosmetic rewards like a ‘house’ outfit that Avalanche could spread like the one Colin Farrell had in Fantastic beasts. Optionally with the house colour replacing the white.

And for the lady players there is a nice dress that Queenie Goldstein had, it is merely an idea, but you get the picture. 

There is a boatload of ideas coming from that area and I reckon that most game studios already have that in mind. Epic Games in their Fortnite has spewed close to hundreds of ideas in the time they have been active and gamers love unique rewards. I reckon Epic Games have a truckload of examples there, so why not use that setting to promote the PS6 and Sony’s drive to success. With Microsoft out of the running (as I see it) Sony needs to up the ante to keep up with Nintendo, because that is becoming the issue that is next. Because as I see it, gaming is warfare and Nintendo is showing to be just as equal as the one and only Sony and there is the thought that they are already lacking in that respect. We always saw the fight between Microsoft and Sony as the one that mattered and Nintendo won that a few years ago and the Switch 2 is merely adding to the distance it is gaining, as such it is time for Sony to move towards a better position in that race, because running by yourself without a real opponent is nothing to smile at, it merely makes you go contempt in your race whilst others are passing you by. As such we need to consider that Nintendo Switch sales with exceeding 154 million units globally, making it one of the best-selling consoles ever. Surpassing anything Sony has had in the mix and as I see it, Microsoft being a distant fourth in that equation. But for Sony there is a need to being better and they can do it, as such I see the metrics to be added to the fold will give the gamer a much better understanding on where he spends his (or her) time and the goes a long way towards promoting their shop and their titles. 

Have a great day today and never stop gaming.

Fear is key

It sounds like a clear setting, but you would be wrong. The added ‘evidence’ is actually a lot worse in many regards. I saw the ‘presentation’ and I was on board as I documented part of this over the last 12 years. I saw what was coming and now I see that I was more than correct and it scared me a little. 

So, it started when I saw a title, nothing more than that. The title ‘Why BlackRock Just Moved $2.1 Trillion Out of America (And What It Means for You)’ intrigued me, because when the words ‘Blackrock’ and ‘trillions’ are mentioned in one and the same sentence there tends to be some kind of fallout. Yes, I am always willing to sell my IP to these people and considering that one of them gets the over 6 billion a year (that’s for starters) with an outcropping towards 15 billion, so I am definitely eager to sell to them. 

But I am getting ahead of myself. The video is well worth the watch and you should watch it, because suddenly my 13 years of being called a ‘useless doom speaker’ is now the setting towards me being something of a trendsetter. Perhaps trendsetter is not the right word. A recognizer of instigation might be a better phase and remember (if you read my previous blogs) that I blamed the media on several settings for NOT informing you. This Youtube video shows you that this had happened before and the media should have been on top of this. They were merely hiding the facts for you and now that we are completing the third stage of a four stage cycle, we, mainly America has run out of time. Several parts are out in the open. The actions by Japan and Saudi Arabia should get your heart into overdrive. And as we are facing the final settings towards the fourth cycle time will be finished for all of us. I am fortunate that I have skillsets, so I might get out of this without too much damage but millions will not. And whilst everyone is blaming President Trump, beware. He might have accelerated things, but he is nowhere near guilty of the larger parts. Yet the headline ‘BlackRock Just Moved $2.1 Trillion Out of America’ should make you very nervous and next to the actions of Japan should get you scared beyond believe. Anyway the YouTube video (at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iHuk5G1h-I) gives you the goods. The video is 25 minutes and they will be the best 25 minutes of 2026 (at present). So watch and learn/consider what is at stake. 

Now, any making the claim that this is a false video beware. I watched parts of this fourth cycle going into action and I grew up in the Netherlands I knew, but I never thought or was taught in school that this was part of a larger setting. But the setting that a 10 trillion company is moving over 20% out of America should worry you and that is before you consider what JP Morgan gave you in the last two weeks. The picture is forming and the image is a lot less friendly than you imagined and this is before you consider the setting that I have been telling you from 2013 onwards. And the economic boffins in the media didn’t know? You have been had and were presented a digital sleeping drug whilst the powers of money were quietly removing their handle on a breaking currency. A setting that was mathematically known. Although I didn’t know that until I watched this video. Today I learned a lot about how treason imbued the media really is. 

Should you doubt that too, which its always fair, never just take my or anyones word for that, read up on what I have been telling you and penally I now realise that life in China, Saudi Arabia or the UAE might be the next stage, because when this collapse happens in the next three years, anyone with dollar settings will lose whatever they have and as I predicted this (before I saw that video) American infrastructure is on route to the largest collapse in financial history.

Have a great day and feel free to to look into my stories and make up your own mind, because I always advocate never ever take anyones word without checking that, even my views. Tomorrow I’ll look at a setting I covered in 2025 but another view is essential.

TBD CEO OpenAI 

That is the thought I had, yesterday, 5 hours after I wrote my piece, I still saw the news appear all over the media, some on it was getting a ridiculous amount of attention, so I decided to take another look at some of this. First there was the Business insider (at https://www.businessinsider.com/openai-code-red-chatgpt-advertising-google-search-gemini-2025-12) giving us ‘OpenAI’s Code Red: Protect the loop, delay the loot’ where we see “Focus on improving ChatGPT, and pause lower-priority initiatives. The most striking pause is advertising. Why delay such a lucrative opportunity at a moment when OpenAI’s finances face intense scrutiny? Because in tech, nothing matters more than users.” This was followed by “Every query and click fed a feedback loop: user behavior informed ranking systems, which improved results, which attracted more users. Over time, that loop became an impenetrable moat. Competing with it has proven nearly impossible.

ChatGPT occupies a similar position for AI assistants. Nearly a billion people now interact with it weekly, giving OpenAI an unmatched new window into human intent, curiosity, and decision-making. Each prompt and reply can be fed back into model training, evaluations, and reinforcement learning to strengthen what is arguably the world’s most powerful AI feedback loop.” All this makes sense, it comes with the nearly mandatory “Google’s Gemini 3 rollout has lured new users. If ChatGPT’s quality slips or feels cluttered, defecting to Google becomes easier. Introducing ads now risks exactly that. Even mildly irritated users could view ads as one annoyance too many.” Whilst in the background we are ‘sensitive’ to “OpenAI has already committed to spending hundreds of billions of dollars on infrastructure to serve ChatGPT at a global scale. At some point, those bills will force the company to monetize more aggressively.

If OpenAI manages to build even half of Google’s Search ads business in an AI-native form, it could generate roughly $50 billion in annual profit. That’s one way to fund its colossal ambitions.” This gives OpenAI a two sided blade in the back. It was a good ploy, but that ploy is deemed to be counter productive and I get that, but dropping the ads might sting with the investors as It was the dimes that they were seeing coming their way and ChatGPT needs to make a smooth entry all the way to the next update, which will be near impossible to avoid in several ways. Google has the inside track now and whilst there are a few settings that are ‘malleable’ for the users, the smooth look is essential for ChatGPT to continue. And that is before other start looking at the low quality data it verifies against. Google has, as I see it, exactly the same problem, but as I see it, ChatGPT gets it now in advance. 

Newcomer (at https://www.newcomer.co/p/openais-code-red-shows-the-power) gives us “In truth, as Newcomer’s Tom Dotan wrote back in April, Google, with all of its formidable assets, was never very far behind. Nor is it currently very far ahead. Anthropic too has always been essentially neck-and-neck with OpenAI on the core technology. The capabilities of the big foundation models, and even some lighter ones like DeepSeek, are broadly similar. Marc Benioff, himself a skilled practitioner in the arts of attention, even claimed this week that the big models will be interchangeable commodities, like disk drives. Yet the perception of who’s on top matters quite a lot at a moment when consumers, enterprise technology buyers, and investors are all deciding where to place some highly consequential long-term bets. That brings us back to Altman’s “Code Red.”” Is a truth in itself, but the next part “while the alarm came in a company-wide memo that wasn’t officially announced publicly, we can stipulate that the “leak” of the memo, if not necessarily orchestrated, was almost certainly part of the plan. A media maestro like Altman surely knew that a memo going out to thousands of employees with charged language like “Code Red” was all but guaranteed to make its way to the press. Publicizing a panicked internal reaction to a competitor’s new product might seem like a counter-intuitive way to maintain your reputation as the industry leader.” As I see it, someone in Microsoft marketing earned his dollars in marketing that day, but this is a personal feeling, I have no data to back it up. It is now up to Sam Altman to deliver his ‘new’ version in the coming week and it better the a great new release, or as I see it, there will be heads rolling all over the floor and Sam Altman knows that the pressure is up. I don’t think he is scared as some media says, but he is definitely worried, because this setting will set the record of $13 billion straight, into or away from Microsoft and Sam Altman knows this, as such he is probably a little worried and in a software release any of a hundred things can go wrong and they all need to go right at present. 

Then we get “Altman and OpenAI are so good at making news that it’s sometimes hard to tell what’s real.” So, isn’t that the setting all the time? I have always seen Sam Altman as a bad second hands car salesman, That is my take, but I have had a healthy disgust for salespeople for over 30 years. I am a service person, Technical support, customer support. That was always my field. I am not against sales, merely against cleaning up their messes. At times this comes with the territory, shit happens, but those salespeople overselling something just so that they can fill their pipeline and make their numbers are not acceptable to me. To illustrate this, A little setting (devoid of names and brands) “A salesperson came to me with what he needed. We could not do that and I told him, so off he goes calling every technical support person on the planet until he found one that agreed with him and then he sold the solution to the customer and hung that persona name on this. I had to clean up the mess and set up a credit invoice, but after I went through the whole 9 yards making it over 30 days ensuring him that he kept his commission” that is the type I am disgusted with because the brands as a whole suffers, all for the need of greed. It is short sighted thinking. I goes nowhere, but his monthly revenue was guaranteed. And I feel that Sam Altman is not completely like that, but it is the ‘offset’ of salespeople that I carry within me. For me protecting the product and the customer are first and foremost on my mind. 

Then we get Futurism (at https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/openai-is-suddenly-in-major-trouble) where we see ‘OpenAI Is Suddenly in Major Trouble’ OK, is this true? We are given “The financial stakes are almost comical in their magnitude: The company is lighting billions of dollars on fire, with no end in sight; it’s committed to spending well over $1 trillion over the next several years while simultaneously losing a staggering sum each quarter. And revenues are lagging far behind, with the vast majority of ChatGPT users balking at the idea of paying for a subscription.” I don’t agree with this setting. You either pay, or you see advertisement that is the setting. There are no free rides and the sooner you realise this, the easier this gets. Then we are given “Meanwhile, Google has made major strides, quickly catching up with OpenAI’s claimed 800 million or so weekly active ChatGPT users as of September. Worse yet, Google is far better positioned to turn generative AI into a viable business — all while minting a comfortable $30 billion in profit each quarter, as the Washington Post points out.” I agree with the setting the Washington Post sets out with and Google does have an advantage, but that is still relying on the fact that Sam Altman does not get his new version seen as stellar in the coming week. He still has a much larger issue, but that is for later. All this comes at the price of being in the frontrunner team. Easy does it, there is no other way and the stakes are set rather high. So then we are given “In a Thursday note, Deutsche Bank analyst Jim Reid estimated staggering losses for OpenAI amounting to $140 billion between 2024 and 2029.” This is probably true, but where are the numbers. $140 billion over 5 years is one, but what revenue is set against it? Because if this is still set against a revenue number that OpenAI keeps making they are going decently sweet, the numbers were never in debate, the return on investment was and these stakes are high and there is no debating that, these numbers are either given or they are not. 

Then we are given something that makes sense ““OpenAI may continue to attract significant funding and could ultimately develop products that generate substantial profits and revolutionize the world,” he wrote, as quoted by WaPo. “But at present, no start-up in history has operated with expected losses on anything approaching this scale.” “We are firmly in uncharted territory,” Reid added.” I agree, in several ways, but the revenue is not given as such the real deal is absent. Consider YouTube, did anyone see the upside of a $1.65 billion acquisition 20 years ago? It now generates $36.1 billion in annual revenue (2024), Microsoft and OpenAI are banking on that same setting and Microsoft needs it to get a quality replacement for Clippy and they are banking on ChatGPT, this will only happen if they win over Google and I have my doubts on this. There is no real evidence because the new version isn’t ready yet, but it really needs one hitch to make it all burn down and Altman knows this. The numbers or better, the statistics are not on his side. And as I haven’t see a decent software price fight for a while, so I am keeping my thumbs up for Altman (I am however a through and through Google guy). This is a worthy fight watching and I am wondering how this might evolves over the next week.

The stakes are high, the challenge is high, lets see if Sam Altman rises to the occasion. It’s almost Sunday for me so have a great day you all, I reckon that Ryan Reynolds is about 6 hours from breakfast in Vancouver now.

When the bough breaks

It is an old expression, it means “when a situation has reached the point of no return” and at this point we have had a few of these moments. First there is the setting of the President traitor Trump (not my words but I can live with them) telling us all that the 28 points was a Russian document, with Russian syntaxis, one person even told the world (via YouTube) that it was a literal google translation. I cannot say that because I have never seen the document. A whole range of politicians going all the way up to John Bolton (the former National Security Advisor of the United States)  and writer of the book ‘The room where it happened’ they all say that the Ukraine should never accept this setting. Then we get another event where ‘apparently’ the Kremlin misplaced 10 trillion rubles and they are now selling whatever gold they have to keep afloat. This gave me the speculation that two too debt ridden nations are helping each other out. It almost sounds like the passport switch. I go to Canada, from Canada I go to the United Kingdom on a British passport, I do whatever I need to do and return to Canada with a Canadian passport, no one is the wiser and from there I return to Australia on my own passport. Confused? You would be, but that is what is required to get trillions in debt written off in two places. They are in too deep and as Prime Minister Carney is now making waves in the G20 too many countries are now realising that they do not need the instability of America, Canada becomes the place to be. But that is not all.

CBC apparently reported (through LinkedIn) the image below, but that is all I see and there is nothing more and not on the CBC site either, so I am not sure where it is coming from. 

So, there is every chance it is some troll and to whomever it was (I’ll call him Vladimir) I say:

“Vladimir, go look for your missing trillions, 10 of them. In the meantime let your tool (President Trump) soil his pants because nearly all of us are through with him. Canada is part of the Commonwealth and considering that you cannot even beat the one in 20th position your weakened state you have zero chance to beat Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom, because that is where your heading to. In the meantime that so called ‘failed state’ is getting the economy on a high speed recovery and it does not have $37 trillion of debt, that southern border does might become Canadian territory (with support from the American people)”

Is that a strong enough consideration? And as I see it, the entire Commonwealth is supporting the Ukraine. These so called Russian trolls will be dealt with in the near future. So feel free to consider where you can find the trillions you misplaced and stay out of out way. Oh, and a youthful young lady by the name of Sanna Marin (former PM of Finland) had a simple solution to stop the war. “Get out of Ukraine” was her view and nearly everyone who matters agrees. 

And that war you started on  February 24th 2022 which you said was going to take 3-5 days is now 1370 days and the Russian economy is about to end with 1,165,260 less Russian men. So how will you restart the economy considering you have all these men missing, energy plants are burning down and you are about to face a new winter with apparently 10 trillion misplaced. 

But, on the upside you can have Donald Trump if you want him, apparently he is about to get impeached. According to Newsweek ‘Donald Trump Faces Articles of Impeachment Before Christmas’ all this whilst News dot Com dot Au gave us 4 days ago ‘Trump Media stock crashes to all-time lows, wiping out $5B in first family wealth during crypto slide’ so this is his sixth failure? I don’t keep track of those settings. But it comes with the setting that you take him, you keep him, no take backsies on this deal.

So am I going too far? I might be, but that is the danger when you get so much news with the setting you do not know what to trust that it might make your head spin and mine is spinning. In this there are two settings that I am unsure of. Did Russia misplace 10 trillion rubles? Trolls are on both sides of the fence, so this could be another deception. But the anger we all have with the 28 point document is too fresh in memory and Ukraine was never consulted on any of this. And the BBC (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g95x50kdyo) gave us ‘US insists it authored Ukraine peace plan after claims of Russian ‘wish list’’ a mere 6 hours ago. So why aren’t these documents released? So when we are given “US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has insisted that a proposed 28-point plan to end the Ukraine war, which has been widely viewed as favourable to Russia, was “authored by the US”.” In the old days (when I was young) you would show these documents with mention of who authored them and who was connected to the tutoring of these documents. Yet later we get “Rubio later distanced himself from those claims and said the plan came from the US, and was “based on input” from both Russia and Ukraine.” Really? Because Ukraine was seemingly not involved, so who were the people involved? Simple settings to logistics and they are largely missing. Then we get (through the BBC) “On Saturday, Republican Senator Mike Rounds said Rubio had told a group of lawmakers that the draft plan was not US policy. He told the Halifax Security Forum: “What [Rubio] told us was that this was not the American proposal.”” So we get one person telling us different stories? What on earth is going on in America? At present there is absolutely no way that anyone is considering having a vacation there and for other reasons? As it stands America is in an almost worse state than Russia apparently is in. 

So have a great day and whilst Vancouver is enjoying Sunday, I just entered Monday. Such is life.
