And you can even play along with an app :d 

This is the greatest thing I’ve ever heard for a quiz show. They should all have apps. If HQ Trivia proved anything it’s people would love something like that.

Speaking of quizzes, sport scientist Ross Tucker (some of you might now him from The Real Science of Sport Podcast) did a sports quiz on youtube last Friday. He says he will probably do another one again soon.

I don't really buy it. I just read the full CNN article, no substantial source at all, mostly by imagination and typical fake news. The only seemingly reliable source in it is from South Korean media Daily NK, he conducted surgery in 12th April and back to Pyongyang in 19th April, but not mentioning grave danger.

Yeah, I see CNN has already been called out in the US too. I shared it mostly because I wanted to see people’s reactions :p

 

We’d know if Un was really in trouble. He’d disappear for a few days, and the South Koreans would break the news; not the US.

Yes. I would rather believe the news from South Korea and I think they must have some kinda secret connection and information sharing system.

DailyNK is always the main source..

Like during the coronavirus situation when he was invisible for weeks?

 

If there's one situation where "we'd know" does not apply, t's about Kim Jong-un's health :p

      Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026 Medal Count

      By copravolley · Posted

      In my opinion, the maximum period in power should be 8 years. Next to, it's already too long, especially since Hungary's economy is much weaker than earlier. Just as Italy has too many changes of government, Orbán's 16 years in power is definitely too long for me. Perhaps only Erdogan and Putin have ruled in Europe longer, but those are semi-dictatorships.    In the USA, just about two weeks before the election, bookmakers were betting heavily on Trump, from what I remember good. They were more wrong in 2016 with Trump and Clinton – then, Clinton was expected to win clearly until the very end.

      Fraud hopefully not, it's true that everyone says it will be like 50-50% as far as the winner is concerned. Hopefully the moron (ov) loses but honestly don't know what will happen.  My main concern is that it was said about the 2024 US election that it will be very close and then what happened... (I mean hopefully these opinion polls are more reliable than the American ones)

      According to our bookmakers, Orban could lose after so long time, but I've read that there may be electoral fraud. What do you think?

      Good to know there will be a women's hockey wch in Budapest this year. Admittedly I was out of the loop for many sports recently (only followed the winter sports world cup circuit prior to the Olympics and not everything from there even) According to Wikipedia the first day of the competition will be Election Day (12 April) Hopefully this will not be a bad omen for any of the teams involved....

      This year, Italy will play against Slovakia in the women's hockey World Championships in Budapest in April. Who do you think will be the favorite?

      Don´t want to speak about Slovak politics amigo. They all were, are and will be greedy, uneducated and corrupted bastards. Point.   Back to sport. We suck as hell, but we know it, However, that´s not a reason to not enjoy the Olympics, it is a once in a 4 years time holiday of sport

      In that time in Poland was ruled by a some center-right government with the support of liberals but a president was a post-communist. It seems to me that in Poland, the president has much more power than in Italy or Slovakia. Btw., during the Yanukovych era, Ukraine also wanted to organize the Winter Olympics in Lviv in 2022
