The Norks Kims are world leaders and KC3 isn't? Did I accidentally stumble into a .ml echo chamber?

On looking at the OP's list I was also wondering why Trooping the Colour wasn't on it, as it is a military parade for the (official) birthday of one of the leaders in the G7.

King Charles III is not symbolic; he is the ruler of the UK and the Commonwealth. He refers to Parliament as "my government" in his speeches and no new laws can be passed without his approval (Royal assent). He is the head of the military and the Church. So referring to Charles as a symbolic figurehead is factually inaccurate. Deferring power to Parliament doesn't change that. Taking it up again may cause a constitutional crisis, but I believe it is an option.

This seems like a fairly reliable source, on the grounds that although it's "only" a blog, solicitors aren't known for posting misinformation. https://www.milnerslaw.co.uk/could-king-charles-iii-dissolve-parliament/

Maybe it's a Samsung phone and a "Made in USA" sticker, shipped in as components and stuck together in the USA, thus fulfilling both "designed" and "made" in USA even though there are some foreign-made components (2). Then onshore those components bit by bit until the process is complete.

Technically that's 100% buffering.

I once got rid of ants by leaving a small pile of sugar out for them.

I like to think the ants that found it took it back to the nest and said "hey guys look what we found!" then got "don't be so stupid! humans never do that! It's obviously a trap, don't ever go back there"
