This is not brain rot, it’s propaganda, just painfully obvious instead of subtle.

The TEE-01B satellite, built and launched by Chinese company Earth ​Eye Co, was acquired by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Aerospace Force after it was launched ​into space from China,

So an Iranian satellite.

This is the intelligent non-invasive way to implement this. Basically using a similar cryptographic signing scheme as SSL certificates. We’ve known how to do this for decades.

No question.

I think the US has been significantly worse than Russia over the last century if not more. They’ve been in various capacities in Vietnam, Korea, Phillipines, Panama, Cuba, and those are just the ones off the top of my head. Read about their colonial, commercial and other wars as well as their regime change ops that has brought countless right-wing dictators around the world, that have killed shit ton of people.

It’s funny how his calculation factors in the completely immaterial price of tokens variable instead the material one which is the number of tokens or better yet the productivity gain per token.

5T to continue, 2.5T to stop.

yup

Oh yeah, I see that in the graph now.

Government spending on R&D in China increased by 90% to US$133 billion in the decade leading up to 2023, according to the most recent purchasing-power-adjusted data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). By contrast, in the United States, spending rose by just 12%, to $155 billion.

I think they’re not taking into account PPP. China is very likely spending more on science in PPP terms which is what really matters.

I guess they’ll have to board and kidnap those tankers then.

Wait what happened with systemd?

E: Thanks both!

I also enjoy discussing attack vecrors with my wife.

Is Bibi looking for an off-ramp? Cause it’s not up to him anymore. It’s up to Mojtaba now, or whoever else is left after they kill him. They can keep destroying the world economy with a few drones a day for many years to come.

I’m sure some US oil execs think they’ll come ahead from this, and they’re probably whispering in Trump’s ear. Except they might not survive the incoming economic shock themselves in a classic capitalists-ignoring-agregate-demand situation.

Could it be just good cop / bad cop like they played during the so called negotiations?

Recently watched an interview with Sanchez and I was quite impressed, especially in comparison to the UK meatheads.

I feel like Israel wanted this at least in part.

Copy-pasta from my comment on the topic from a diff thread:

“The masks are off,” Dmitriev wrote. “U.K. and EU warmongers are showing how deeply anti-Trump they really are. They tried to hide it for a long time, but now everyone can see it.”

State-level trolling.

At the same time, Dmitriev’s comments were widely seen as effectively encouraging additional countries to join military action against Tehran — one of Moscow’s key strategic partners.

Except it may not be contradictory in terms of goals. Russia does not want the EU to be a US vassal. Not for altruistic reasons but because it’ll be easier to restore trade with an unaligned EU. At the same time Russia might (perhaps correctly) consider that NATO cannot reopen the strait given how trivial and cheap it is for Iran to keep it closed. The longer the war lasts, the longer the strait stays closed, the more everyone needs Russian fossil fuels. And at the same time any naval assets that enter the strait are likely going down, which would diminish the naval capabilities of these actors as well as their military power projection.
