Singaporean Propaganda 🥳

Rachel’s birthday party. The guests are not a motley bunch. They hail from either her Christian or social work circle: respectable, eloquent and above average. Chatting in polite clusters against a backdrop of neatly shelved LKY books.

Yup, he would have been proud.

Death of the honorable Mr. Ali Yusoff. He had been the only one to photograph our founding father, Honorable LKY, when our country was expelled from Malaysia.

New Asian-based team LKY SUNZ announces bid to join Formula 1 grid in 2025 | 2025 F1 season

Another potential new entrant to the Formula 1 grid has announced its intention to join the series. LKY SUNZ says it has secured backing from US sports fund Legends Advocates Sports Group and other Asian investors. It plans to submit an entry ahead of the FIA’s deadline for new applications, which were invited earlier this year. The project was co-founded by Benjamin Durand, who was previously involved in another attempt to enter a team in Formula 1. His Panthera Team Asia project was announced in 2019. Its other co-founders are Andrew Pyrah, who has been named chief commercial officer, and Paul Fleming, its chairman. LKY SUNZ – which takes its name from a combination of ‘Lucky’, which it calls a “nod to the Asian heritage of the team”, and ‘SUNZ’ representing the sun – intends to operate from a location in Europe. However it intends to construct a “state-of-the-art net zero green energy-powered factory complex” in the south-east of Asia. The team “aims to be on the grid for the 2025/2026 season”. “We are excited to see our investors share our vision of fusing youth culture and racing to create a team that will disrupt F1,” said Durand. “The sport’s popularity has grown exponentially and every current stakeholder in the sport has been responsible for that, but our guiding principle is to bring something different into the sport to appeal to new audiences. “By being the only team operating outside the traditional F1 corridors and developing bespoke programmes to attract talent from underrepresented communities, we can bring a diversity of thought yet to be seen in F1. “We of course aim to be competitive on the track but we also commit to entertaining fans off the track. To support our plans, we have already onboarded an impressive team of motorsport executives, music and entertainment industry experts and creatives who will help bring this vision to life.” Other parties have already declared an interest in joining the F1 grid after the FIA said it would consider applications to compete from the 2025, 2026 or 2027 seasons. Michael Andretti was the first to throw his hat into the ring, with a project backed by General Motors brand Cadillac. Former F1 team principal Craig Pollock is seeking to enter a team called Formula Equal, which intends to accumulate a workforce with an equal gender split, and has funding from sources in the Middle East, believed to be in Saudi Arabia.

新入手 ThinkPad X1 Tablet (2nd Gen/2017)

这是我第二台自己的ThinkPad了，小时候梦寐以求的二合一平板（其实是苏菲Pro4）

后翻支架不太好用，底角度根本没法画画。所以翻出来了原来在台电10寸寨板用上的MOFT支架，意外的可以用，尽管对于12.3尺寸来说有点小了。而且换手机卡跟SD卡也要拆下来。。

i5 7Y54 披着i5皮的m5，性能不亮眼但续航很不错，远程桌面的用途已经足够使用了，加上扩展电池能撑5个多小时以上还有电。我不确定跑Affinity会不会很耗电，毕竟远程桌面没办法透传手势呀。

12.3寸屏比iPad Pro 12.9稍小，但裸机比iPad Pro重，很多设计很像iPad而不是Surface。

再用惠普平板没用上放到手帐本的书签笔插，搭配纳米胶带稍加改造，占到上侧…还可以吧，不过感觉不如弹力绳好用。原来记得给Venue 8 Pro配过一个弹力绳的笔贴，但是找不见了，只能重新买吧。

机身附带的键盘已经掉皮和接触不良了，先忍着，之后再换吧。小红点稳定性比蓝牙键盘稍好，但是手感因为短键程的关系削太大了（宛若CSGO的R8左轮发展史），因为高度太短即使找LKY跟Saoto也无济于事（他俩甚至统一涨价到300元。。）

触控板居然不是精确式的，研究了一天也没找到比较稳定的方式，小小驱动成功了一次但是还是被我弄不好了…我想起给Yoga710折腾黑苹果的时候，只不过Synaptic的方案以及小红点特殊性比普通触控板要更复杂些。

VOR of... *spins the wheel*... Dwight Eisenhower, William Wilberforce, Lee Kuan Yew.

Dwight Eisenhower: Low confidence here, but I would say low VOR, probably C Tier. He definitely was "very good" at consensus management, but that was done during an era of good feelings towards the idea - and punishment at the ballot box for radicalism, particularly in 1954. Ending the Korea war was something most would have done (the process started under Truman) and based more on Soviet & Chinese exhaustion, the highway system was conceived of under FDR, and the details were primarily threshed out by others like Lucius Clay, Eisenhower wasn't a visionary on. His foreign policy 'achievements' are again spotty, with real attempts at things like Soviet rapproachment fizzling out. NASA funding was consensus. And so on.

Its almost not his fault, this was an era of American economic prosperity and plentiful resources for investments into obvious projects, and strong bipartisan consensus. It had its share of drama and fights, don't get me wrong, but none that I think he tipped the scales on that matter.

William Wilberforce: I don't know enough about him! I have never dug in detail into the British abolitionist movement compared to the US side - that is a gap, I should do so.

Lee Kuan Yew: He is probably overrated! Still strong of course, A-, but two things I think. First, the foundation of Singapore was a chaotic mess - it was part of Malaysia for a few years! Which Lee Kuan Yew led the effort to achieve! Then it backfired and was forced to secede. Those early years were a lot of actors in the pool, LKY certainly was a big one but he wasn't implementing some unitary vision. Secondly, when you hear about the policy visions of Singapore, its a lot of "oh and then Lee Kuan Yew implemented the public housing projects yadda yadda" but from my view it was way more often the party apparatus coming to a decision on that and him agreeing with that consensus. He sort of gets credit as the mouthpiece of the party, but he wasn't as active as one might think. I would like to dig into this more though, admittedly

His A- does have to come from his party leadership - the PAP was not the ordained-from-on-high ruling party of Singapore. LKY started out hustling trade unionist votes in his first election, he would organize elaborate smear campaigns against opponents, or employ legal tricks to monopolize air time on the radio for his own faction. In 1961 the left-wing faction of PAP was expelled by Lee to push the party right and monopolize his control - which he did while being secretly allied with the Communist Party of Malaysia!

So he certainly played a unique role in building monopoly power in Singapore; I just don't think he is a visionary on what to do with that power the way some other leaders in history have been.
