Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Bkk Brian replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
More strikes in Moscow by Ukraine drones, ok apparently they were shot down so would have missed their intended target but its good that are still getting through and causing damage. Live: Russia downs three Ukrainian drones over Moscow, defence ministry says Russia’s defence ministry said that three Ukrainian drones attacked Moscow early on Sunday, the TASS news agency reported. One drone was destroyed in the air and two others crashed in Moscow, the ministry said. The attack damaged two buildings and temporarily suspended flights at Vnukovo airport.

Its not just images but general spam AI Junk Is Starting to Pollute the Internet In early May, the news site rating company NewsGuard found 49 fake news websites that were using AI to generate content. By the end of June, the tally had hit 277, according to Gordon Crovitz, the company’s co-founder. “This is growing exponentially,” Crovitz said. The sites appear to have been created to make money through Google’s online advertising network, said Crovitz, formerly a columnist and a publisher at The Wall Street Journal. https://www.wsj.com/articles/chatgpt-already-floods-some-corners-of-the-internet-with-spam-its-just-the-beginning-9c86ea25 https://archive.ph/vhifn

It hits you when its someone close to home. I'm with you, thoughts for the missing and those that have lost loved ones including parents, unfortunately the death toll will no doubt rise quite a lot yet.

Thank you for the confirmation of my post and the facts that it was a private company. But yes I do know where the Nile is, I've travelled on it a couple of time.

He's getting the Christians onside. 'A spiritual war': Are Christian nationalists threatening to turn the US into a religious state? While it is not a new concept, some experts argue it has gone from a fringe ideology to a force in Donald Trump's Republican party and is now a threat to the very fabric of American democracy. One professor said the movement uses Christian ideals to mask racist ideas, but others say the Christian nationalist label is simply used to dismiss any Christians who want to be involved in politics. More than half of Republicans are at least sympathetic to Christian nationalist ideas, according to a recent survey. https://news.sky.com/story/a-spiritual-war-are-christian-nationalists-threatening-to-turn-the-us-into-a-religious-state-12924092

Climate change: July set to be world's warmest month on record

You mean this chappie Neil Oliver? BBC Meteorologist Takes Apart GB News Host's Climate Denial With Facts A BBC meteorologist has effortlessly dismantled a GB News host’s denials about climate change, just by pointing out how weather forecasting works. On Monday evening, after wildfires were reported across Greek islands as southern Europe endured yet another day of the current heatwave, TV presenter Neil Oliver tried to debunk climate concerns as fearmongering. He claimed the “terrifying temperatures that were being predicted all starting with a 4, with a 40-this and a 40-that” supposedly all began with a satellite picture which looked at ground temperature. https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/bbc-meteorologist-gb-news-climate-change-denial_uk_64bfbb5fe4b08a8c9211c1ef -

When you imply that NASA is making ad hoc narratives and liken them to a scientific nomenklatura then it sort of gives the game away that you have nothing but words and no credible links to further your debate. -
Just for him? Why conceal it? “This failure to release a transcript is the latest in your troubling pattern of concealing key evidence in order to advance a false and distorted narrative about your ‘investigation of Joe Biden’ that has not only failed to develop any evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden but has, in fact, uncovered substantial evidence to the contrary,” Raskin wrote in the letter, which was obtained by The Associated Press. https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/democrats-claim-gop-withholding-evidence-contradicting-claims-hunter-101769266

"Yes but I don't believe in that narrative." Right you just believe with no science behind that belief which puts you at odds with the experts who I prefer to believe and have provided actual facts. -
Climate change: July set to be world's warmest month on record
Bkk Brian replied to Social Media's topic in The Green Forum
One of the “smoking guns” that tells us the Sun is not causing global warming comes from looking at the amount of solar energy that hits the top of the atmosphere. Since 1978, scientists have been tracking this using sensors on satellites, which tell us that there has been no upward trend in the amount of solar energy reaching our planet. https://climate.nasa.gov/faq/14/is-the-sun-causing-global-warming/ -

Global warming is more than clear cut but here's why they changed it: But temperature change itself isn't the most severe effect of changing climate. Changes to precipitation patterns and sea level are likely to have much greater human impact than the higher temperatures alone. For this reason, scientific research on climate change encompasses far more than surface temperature change. So "global climate change" is the more scientifically accurate term. Like the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, we've chosen to emphasize global climate change on this website, and not global warming. https://gpm.nasa.gov/education/articles/whats-name-global-warming-vs-climate-change -

You were the one that brought asphalt and concrete, where did you get that info from that they are included when taking Global temperatures? Where do global temperature data come from? Modern observations mostly come from weather stations, weather balloons, radars, ships and buoys, and satellites. https://climate.nasa.gov/faq/35/where-do-global-temperature-data-come-from/ Explainer: How do scientists measure global temperature? To get a complete picture of Earth’s temperature, scientists combine measurements from the air above land and the ocean surface collected by ships, buoys and sometimes satellites, too. https://www.carbonbrief.org/explainer-how-do-scientists-measure-global-temperature/ -
Only the hardcore MAGA still support Trump. Glenn Ivey on new Trump charges in documents case: ‘I don’t think it’s making him stronger’ Rep. Glenn Ivey (D-Md.) said he doesn’t think the legal challenges former President Donald Trump faces will help the 2024 GOP frontrunner in a general election. Ivey, who sits on the House Judiciary Committee, said he thinks the troubles with the law the former president faces are reinforcing his support only among “hardcore” Republican voters. Ivey said the challenges are “ensuring” a Biden win in another head-to-head matchup between the 2020 rivals. “I don’t think it’s making him stronger for the general election next November,” Ivey said on “The Hill” on NewsNation Friday. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4126047-glenn-ivey-on-new-trump-charges-in-documents-case-i-dont-think-its-making-him-stronger/

That's one opinion piece the Hill is reporting from Fox News, here's another. Former Trump administration lawyer on Mar-a-Lago investigation: ‘The evidence is so overwhelming’ Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb said there is overwhelming evidence in the classified documents case against former President Trump, following the announcement of new charges from the Department of Justice (DOJ). Cobb, a lawyer who served under the Trump administration, claimed that the superseding indictment unveiled Thursday by federal prosecutors will “last an antiquity,” during an interview with CNN’s Erin Burnett. “I think this original indictment was engineered to last 1,000 years, and now this superseding indictment will last an antiquity,” Cobb said. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4124264-former-trump-lawyer-ty-cobb-on-new-indictment/

Not only do they not have evidence, any potential evidence that distorts their narrative is concealed. Democrats claim the GOP is withholding evidence contradicting claims in Hunter Biden probe Rep. Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on House Oversight Committee, sent a letter Friday to Rep. James Comer, the Republican chair of the committee, asking him to produce the transcribed interview this month with an FBI agent who worked on the investigation into the younger Biden’s taxes and foreign business dealings. The witness was interviewed on July 17. “This failure to release a transcript is the latest in your troubling pattern of concealing key evidence in order to advance a false and distorted narrative about your ‘investigation of Joe Biden’ that has not only failed to develop any evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden but has, in fact, uncovered substantial evidence to the contrary,” Raskin wrote in the letter, which was obtained by The Associated Press. https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/democrats-claim-gop-withholding-evidence-contradicting-claims-hunter-101769266

Donnie, your toxic campaign is losing votes, must be something to do with all the evidence against you. Not seen him post this poll on truth social yet....lol GOP support for Trump softens as the former president's legal troubles mount The pile-on effect of mounting legal charges against former President Trump may be starting to take a toll, according to the latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll. Republicans and Republican-leaning independents saying they believe Trump has done "nothing wrong" dropped 9 points in the last month, from 50% to 41%. Trump also dropped 6 points in support with that same group when asked whether they were more likely to support Trump or another candidate, if he continues to run for president. https://www.npr.org/2023/07/28/1190748917/trump-republican-support-independents-indictment-january-6-poll?
