If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

No-one in their right minds would ever, willingly visit Russia!

I can just see us westerners; all fighting each-other to get to the front of the queue…

(…and the Russians are paranoid that we in the west want to “INVADE” them!!!… Yeah, right… >In their bloody dreams<)!

Why doesn't speeding significantly decrease one’s commute time? I've done a lot of road trips and driving and have experimented by increasing speed by 10–20%, but somehow this never equates to arriving 20% sooner, even on clear roads.

Yeah, right…

Cheers!

The Switch 2’s promising start hides an uncertain future - The Verge

Carson, Segal, Musk, Trump… (add to the list as applicable)…

Or; more likely, fighting each-other - trying to push someone-else (anyone-else) ahead of ourselves.
