It happened a couple of weeks ago (and I have not used it since then...). For me it was after installing a couple of packages. Not sure what happened. I'll have to use it again from next week so I'll delve into that but if you find a fix before LMK! Good luck!

Africans succeeded in keeping the scale of political society small, but that left Africa vulnerable.

Hi,

I have been awarded a scholarship to attend the 2026 MVP Summit, and I'm very thankful for this opportunity. However, due to several recent actions taken by the government of the United States against foreign citizens, I no longer feel comfortable attending the event in person in Redmond.

I will happily attend the MVP summit in the future if the geopolitical situation of your country improves, and I hope you understand my decision.

Best.
