    How will Trumps threat on 100% tariff on BRICS pan out

    Because they have sanctioned themselves from doing so. Instead they will buy gas from tankers coming from the US. The infrastructure to handle this hasn't been built or isn't ready for the scale. Bill to do so will be $100bn How is German industry going to compete without cheap energy? They...

    Front loading or top loading washing machine?

    Why not? I think it can work with your autodose. I need to use prewash. Some of my laundry is heavily soiled and this is what prewash is for. Get any debris out and when the main wash starts you get a better wash. My clothes go in filthy and come out like new. Every time. I don't use any...

    How will Trumps threat on 100% tariff on BRICS pan out

    I've explained this numerous times here. Fit the media to the administration. You want media biased to the government as they have the most access. Understand the intent of people in charge. This way has never let me down. Ever. The usual slam I get is but that is propaganda. Well who else is...

    How does liquid work if you want to use the prewash cycle? Without prewash selected there is no problem

    Front loading or top loading washing machine?

    That would be my default recommendation for LG at this time. It's not sexy. But has the minimum you need. Liquid won't work if you want to use the prewash cycle. It just flows into the prewash and there is nothing left for the main cycle. It's also not suitable for timed washes. Where you...

    Oh it a big deal for Mr. J who can't be bothered to do that. His contribution in any discussion is non existent yet always presumes to dictate what should be said. He wants others to do the work. And if it isn't to his liking it should be stopped. Uh, this is a topic about Trump. I want...

    How will Trumps threat on 100% tariff on BRICS pan out

    I wouldn't be too sure about that. Have you heard of Mike Benz or listened to anything he said. Free speech was used to undermine democracy where US pulled a Jan 6 on Ukraine. Free speech is good because you don't have to invade countries. If you can use the media of that country to elect the...

    How will Trumps threat on 100% tariff on BRICS pan out

    Very interesting and thanks for posting this. It's as clear a laypersons explanation as we will ever get. Since we are in uncharted territory now there is a huge incentive for the establishment to gaslight everything said and done. How to deal with it. Keep faith and trust the people in...

    In general until the 70s that would be true. Not after. The date gives an indication. 2001. I don't buy his explanation of Bibi sabotaging Oslo. It was an honest effort that blew up in the Israelis faces. Arafat refused to deal and started the second intifada in 2000. Which went on for five...

    My argument as well. Consumer wins The EU is next. In any case this oil & gas was on the cards to replace Russian energy or shall we say Russian oil sold as something else. American gas will be more expensive than Russian. So I don't know how this works unless the Americans take a hit. And...

    Israel Hezbollah Pager Attack.

    Their foreign Office has responded The turks are massing on the Syrian border. Ready to go deal with the PKK in Syria. The US objects.. The US is not going to abandon the kurds. Turkey cannot avoid going after the PKK. If the PKK surrenders then all is good otherwise US sanctions on Turkey

    That's not the end of it. Judiciary has decided now when Israel is fighting on seven fronts, is the right time to try the PM on bribery charges. He needs to spend 6h per day for three days per week so total of 18h per week explaining about cigars and champagne (!) You can't try a sitting...

    Find what works for you. For me that is Surf. I prefer powder to liquid as it cleans better and is easy to dose compared to liquids. However if you want to know the present state of affairs with front loading detergents then start reading from here The only rule to follow with front load...
