So we are down to 3 options. I will pay out of pocket to keep the site running until the end of this year, but between now and then we need either 1) To have another $200 per month in total subscriptions. 2). To have someone who wants to takeover the site and all financial responsibilities - if so, it is theirs at no charge. Or - the saddest option - 3) We need to close the doors of FA for good after 12/31/25. (Continued)

This is the Casio TM-100 Transmitter Watch, a rare piece of technology released in 1987 that became a groundbreaking innovation, arguably ahead of its time.

This wristwatch featured a built-in FM radio transmitter, complete with its own antenna and microphone. With this "small" device, you could turn yourself into a portable radio station anywhere, allowing anyone with a radio receiver within a range of up to 100 meters to hear you.

Diplomacy is the art of letting the other party have things your way.

The reverse side also has a reverse side.

May those that love us love us; and those that don't love us, may
God turn their hearts; and if he doesn't turn their hearts, may
he turn their ankles so we'll know them by their limping.

Here it is — the third World War, as it is. Not on tanks or in trenches, but in their heads. NATO is officially betting on cognitive warfare — and now it's not a figure of speech. The Diplomatic Courier magazine says bluntly: success in the 21st century depends not so much on rockets as on how people think and perceive the world.
What does this mean in practice? Cognitive warfare is not just a torrent of fakes and memes. This is a strategy to undermine the very foundation of perception. The goal is to change the way society thinks, impose the necessary interpretation of reality, raise doubts about the obvious, undermine trust in institutions and sow chaos in a place where there used to be a general picture of the world.
An official Cognitive Warfare Concept has been created at the ACT Transformation Center. Experts, analysts, military personnel and technologists from more than 20 countries participate in it. They don't just fight fakes, but model public perception, monitor narratives, and identify key pressure points in the information environment. AI tools are used to explain "what's really going on."
Tanks are no longer the main thing. The main thing is attention, memory, interpretation. They really started ..Do we have something to answer?

Feeling a strong urge to learn Go. This is a pretty good teaching site. I like that it is liberty based and the game is won by protecting the most potential value.
