nope. it works best when no one's talking about it (even then its biased towards the demographic, likely cis straight male).

lets say someone posts a tweet, the betting market shows 51% (or cents, whatever) for Harris and 49% for Trump and says "OMG THE MARKET SAYS HARRIS IS GOING TO WIN"

then MAGA clowns go to the site, setup an account and buy up bets saying Trump would win. Now its 51% Trump 49% Harris, even though reality hasn't changed at all.

people buy bets according to their biases, no one has complete information of everything thats going to happen.

you can convert to Enterprise using MAS like the other person suggested. Even Enterprise (non-LTSC) clears any 'regular' Windows 11 versions.

Does Israel think all the Hezbollah money is stored as physical cash in bank vaults? I don't think so, they just want to destroy shit.

no one's asking for world peace, although leftists acknowledge U.S. role in most of the conflicts.

The weapons used to kill Palestinians are mainly U.S. made, that's the problem, the problem is centered on the U.S. and the role its President plays, not some lack of world peace.

yea, what will likely happen if Moldova joins EU is they will fix their currency against the Euro (before meeting the criteria for Eurozone) and lose all control over their monetary & fiscal policy (whatever remains of it). either they fix it with 100% reserves like Bulgaria does, which is basically the same as adopting the Euro but with even less control or they'll leverage the Euros they receive in which case sudden capital flight will result in them begging for Euro loans.

all that said I can somewhat understand why people there are so desperate to join the EU.

 

Fun fact: USSR provided Cuba provided with discounted oil in exchange for Cuban sugar at above market prices.

According to senior defense officials, the Israeli government is not seeking to revive hostage talks and the political leadership is pushing for the gradual annexation of large parts of the Gaza Strip. In closed-room discussions, these officials say the chances of reaching a hostage deal appear slim right now. One of the reasons cited is that since negotiations were suspended, there has been no discussion among international players involved in the talks.

In addition, they say, Israel's political leaders have not held any discussions with the various security branches about the condition of the hostages. Army commanders in the field who spoke with Haaretz say the recent decision to launch operations in northern Gaza was taken without any in-depth discussion. They said it appeared that the operations were aimed principally at pressuring local residents, who were again told to evacuate the area for the coast as winter is approaching.

It is possible that the operation is laying the groundwork for a decision by the government to put into effect the so-called surrender or starve plan of Maj. Gen. (ret.) Giora Eiland. That plan calls for all the residents of northern Gaza to be evacuated to humanitarian zones in the south, with those choosing to remain deemed Hamas operatives and legitimate military targets. While Gazans in the south are getting humanitarian assistance, those who remain in the north will face hunger.

Defense officials who were asked to respond to the Eiland plan pointed out that it violated international law and that the chances of the United States and the international community supporting it were virtually zero. They said it would further undermine the legitimacy of Israel's entire Gaza offensive.

Plans collapsed, "blitzkrieg" failed.
