No. Not a conundrum … just greed in action.
It got hammered by the critics and was pretty much a box office flop - but they are wrong. 🎥 The Alto Knights was everything I expected and more. De Niro, of course was great - and in this one - ‘twice’ as great as usual. More thoughts in the comments when I get round to it.
That’s ‘undo’ - not undies …

The decision of the U.S. to shut off intelligence and throttle the military version of Starlink called Starshield to Ukraine …
Not wrong - BUT as he points out just a couple of paragraphs later;

It has a sense that ‘all’ is preordained.
I’d just finished building a dashboard that does what I want. Then I read this.
