Aside from the actual message he is sending, this level of English is what I would expect from a 7 year old.

He not a toddler, he’s about to extort an entire country for oil, and very likely go to war with them. Machado isn’t playing him, shes encouraging him in the hope that she gets a seat at the table.

My issue is that Machado should never have got the award in the first place, Trump now possessing it adds insult to injury. The Foundation should be ashamed of what they did.

Honestly, the Nobel Foundation has done themselves and the Nobel Prize terrible damage. I, for one, am no longer interested in this sham of an award, or any of the other Nobel prizes. They should be ashamed that were stupid enough or corrupt enough to have given it to Machado in the first place, she was clearly no agent for peace. This just adds to that shame.

The Telegraph is extremely right wing, so that would reduce to just terrible people.

Fuck, I’m old

I’m not an expert, but if BGP started routing traffic through U.S. services they could MITM traffic ( if it wasn’t properly secured), but they could also just DoS which might have been enough for the purposes at that time.

BGP doesn’t use DNS

I assume they mean Border Gateway Protocol. Its used to help define what network traffic goes where. This could mean traffic was being redirected to bad actor(s).

If I was Venezuelan, I would be thinking of ways to sabotage these oil wells. How hardbwould it be to permanently block an oil field, or at least make it take much longer to extract?

In s neither, it’s extortion on a massive scale. The U.S. is being run by gangsters.

Finny thing is, I have a hunch Russia and China were notified in advance…

Heh, I still have two towels from my British boarding school from 40 ,years ago. They don’t make 'em like that any more…

I’m guessing your aunt knows you don’t have a lot of money, so I don’t think youbneed to worry too much about price - the thought is more important. Chocolates are a safe option, maybe a book if they like reading.

The really crazy thing is, the report was off by 1cm… 1cm lower than the actual change.

I can’t help but think they left it far too late - they need to get the film developed and send the cards… all before the end of the week to maybe get to their destination in time.

Now working for ICE…

You know, that might even be their goal.

At this point I think they unloading into a long deceased corpse.

What tourists?
