  • Horseshit. USAF doesn't need AIM-7 Sparrow or MIM-23 Hawk missiles, these aren't even in service anymore. But Ukraine can use these (Hawk missiles can be used on Buk launchers)

  • who's the third white weirdo?

  • they were still a party to NPT the entire time, and they didn't meet obligations of that treaty for over 20 years. NPT also includes inspections by IAEA

    say what you want, they can't unbomb Fordow so any discussions about future iranian nuclear program are pointless

  • ah yes, the completely civilian nuclear program that for last month+ was busy using up 5% enriched uranium (on upper range of enrichment in normal reactors) and 20% (usual in research reactors) to get 60% enriched uranium (no civilian applications)

  • neither. the same kind of propaganda activity targeted at iranian internal audience like after assassination of qasem soleimani. like in 2020, it's pretty obvious that trump takes this offramp

    but also, this time international response is wildly different

    in 2020: UK and Qatar called for deescalation, Saudis said they stand with Iraq, Turkey offered diplomatic support for deescalation

    today, Saudis, UAE, Qatar (obviously), Bahrain, Kuwait, (countries directly impacted) but also Oman, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco, Lebanon, Turkey, Yemen (Aden) and Palestinian Authority all condemned Iranian strikes

    today also iranian proxies are much weaker, and we already know how incompetent their air defences were

  • if it's permanently installed high power device, it only makes sense to wire it directly, like it's done with ovens, and EV charger draws even more power. why there's even plug on the way there? it's not gonna be moved anyway. and while we're at, why you people don't have three phase circuits for big loads like this? standard euro five wire three phase 32A circuit (or plug) gets you 22kW, that plug tops off at 9kW

  • 80000 hours are the same cultists from lesswrong/EA that believe singularity any time now and they're also the core of people trying to build their imagined machine god in openai and anthropic

    it's all very much expected. verbose nonsense is their speciality and they did that way before time when chatbots were a thing

  • bro tried to recruit jihadists in roblox (failed) and now screenshots from this all are a matter of public record 💀

  • bong rip you know what would make bots vanish* tolerable? eye-devouring shitcoin-based authentication scheme (illegal in EU)

    the other people's bots, that is

  • it also helps if your air defense network doesn't collapse immediately because it turns out that in order to guard these nukes you need also regular capable conventional military

  • Yeah, who else. Nuking Dresden at that point would be useless

  • either that, or nukes would be used first in korean war instead. imo it's a good thing that nukes were first used against the most cartoonishly evil fascist state imaginable at that point

  • is the evil funding man going to eat the gimp pepper

  • iirc L-aminoacids and D-sugars, that is these observed in nature, are very slightly more stable than the opposite because of weak interaction

    probably it's just down to a specific piece of quartz or soot that got lucky and chiral amplification gets you from there

    also it's not physics, or more precisely it's a very physicy subbranch of chemistry, and it's done by chemists because physicists suck at doing chemistry for some reason (i've seen it firsthand)

  • sounds suspiciously like something a rabbit would say
