Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

I want to tell you a story. In 2015, I was in the small Lithuanian city of Panevežys, standing with the locals, watching a military parade. But this was no ordinary parade, because marching alongside the Lithuanian troops were our American allies.🧡1/17

Looks like Canada's #tuberculosis stats for 2023 were quietly released. 2217 cases. www.canada.ca/content/dam/... First time breaking 2000 cases since 1994. Highest number of cases since 1984.

Both Hitler and the Kaiser were convinced that war was necessary; they also believed that Germany had a limited window of opportunity to win it. I’m worried that Chinese leadership is looking at data that will drive them to a similar conclusion.
