It’s not. He-3 is supposed to be maybe one day used in fusion power, but we’re talking about tons of this stuff. Not only scale is off, also He-3 burning requires much higher temperature than D-T fusion, and this is just around in next 20 years pinky promise

People who think that it’s a big deal also take Ray Kurzweil seriously, it’s scifi noise

In practical terms, when DHS wanted to get He-3 neutron sensors, they bought out entire global supply for multiple years, for an application where only grams are needed and it’s not used up. It’s made from decay of tritium currently and it’d be less energy intensive to make it the usual way

you shouldn’t mix alcohol and zopiclone mate you’re gonna die from this

at minimum brits have source code. couple of eu countries make parts for it as well

there’s a couple of big failures in american defense industry (like shipbuilding) but F35 is not one of them. the alleged killswitch is not likely a thing because first, it could be used by the most probable adversary, and they already shown capability in EW; and second, it’s not necessary because it requires constant stream of spare parts and maintenance. as if it’s worth it, ask any remaining iranian radar operator for firsthand opinion

some countries switched to euro made jets anyway, but these aren’t likely to be doing the job that F35 is cut to do anyway (SEAD)

it’s not listed because this is not what is happening

italy for example put bridge construction in that military budget (as critical infrastructure)

also the subtext was “spend that defense budget in america” and this is not happening either for variety of reasons, so it’s partial failure already for them

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)

maybe check from openai didn’t clear

this sounds more like another org with ties to a couple of conservative oligarchs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Congress_of_Families

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

that was known almost decade before that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth_Country_Experiment

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

you don’t have to choose a side and you can wish everyone involved a very nice visit to hague

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
