@xristidis777 @grok @Suresh_00S Are you nuts? The estimated total replacement cost for the naval forces currently operating in and around the Strait of Hormuz is roughly $45 billion to $55 billion. Thats not about fuel to get there or operating cost. Only "theoretical" replacement value of the ships.

@1mNewToThis @grok @Suresh_00S "29 billion USD cost" is the amount of the value of pre-existing military equipment used. Money Already spent, just utlized now.

@grok @Suresh_00S Well...considering the conflict with Iras costed about 29 billion in direct military cost alone, this sounds like a great investment. Ofcourse this conflict was about the uranium, not the oill. But still.....

That before-and-after shows an impressive mega-project: digging a navigable canal across the base of a desert peninsula plus building major ports, terminals, and infrastructure. Based on similar modern efforts (like Egypt's New Suez Canal expansion), it could take 2–5 years of intensive 24/7 work and cost $8–20+ billion, depending on exact length, width, soil, and logistics. Huge scale—definitely not a weekend DIY! What specific location/project is this?

Near Utrecht in the Netherlands, cyclists have carved several “desire paths” through the grass beside a carefully designed bike route. In Dutch, these shortcuts are often called olifantenpaadjes — “elephant paths” — traces left when people repeatedly choose the shortest way from A to B.

This is how the algorithm can completely destroy your reach over night. This is the last: Left: 3 months Right: 2 weeks Super consistent 85-95% drop on all metrics. everything after a viral post going ballistic, I tried everything, cool down, delete low quality posts, block bot accounts. Kept posting after cool down, nothing really breaks through. Short hot takes 🛑 Long form with good signal 🛑 Viral potential post 🛑 Core audience value post 🛑 What bothers me here is that 48h after posting a mega viral post I get suppressed back to the Stone Age. This follow previous situations I’ve had with the grok powered algorithm. Where it feels like tweepCred falls far below a certain level, and you’re locked into a low reach prison with every effort to break out is making it harder and harder to do so. I’m asking for transparency on what we can do as content creators when this happens. I don’t want to spam my way out of this. I’d like to know, if I did something wrong, how I can address it, take the responsibility of algorithmic suppression for what ever the length is. But this limbo is most likely going to make me leave the platform.

I’ve been here since 2007, 19 years. I’m about to give up on X. For the third time in <12 months my account is under immense algorithmic suppression. No reach. no nothing. I get punished for being a good person on the platform. In the past my account has been “miss labeled by grok” or “i did not do anything wrong, they did”. Stuff that’s been completely out of my control. This time feels just the same. Nothing breaks past the great algorithmus. I’m a premium+ user. I provide value and have posted tens of thousands of useful posts on here. Yet my account is pushed into “limbo” where posts get throttled down. Super low view count, and no clear pathway to get out of it. For the last 2 weeks, nothing gets close to reaching you, my followers. I’ve seen this before and I know the pattern far too well. It’s a place where many people basically throws in the towel. There is something seriously wrong with how the reach suppression works on here. I post daily, 3-6 times, it’s part of my routine, have been doing so for years. You build momentum, you provide value, and the cycle repeats, until, something breaks out of your network (OON reach) then the algorithm slams you with the biggest breaks ever, throwing your account into reverse. If @xai and @nikitabier is listening they should really think hard about why stuff like this happens to users that really want the best for this platform. At the very least, surface insights inside of creator tools area that shows if and when something has gone wrong or happened to your account that can inform us about wrong doings or simply surfaces issues. That way people like me that spends an unhealthy amount of time on here can better understand why I’m getting punished. I’m extra under the weather this time. It just zucks to be fair.

Yeah....I like most of your posts. But these bones are not 6000 years old. And they are not 6000 year old whales. I dont mind the idea that there was a flood 6000 years ago. And you can actually convince me this made the Saharah is it is now. But one theory does not make the valley of whales younger. You can also look at the difference in hight. Wadi Al-Hitand is located at 225 hight. The peak of the Giza Pyramid is at 200 meters. So one can be covered in sand while the other is uncovered.

The pyramids and the Sphinx were buried under the sand. There are even speculations about another Sphinx discovered beneath the hardened sand, yet they somehow want to convince you that whale carcasses lay on top of the Sahara for 30 million years. Make it make sense. They say the wind blew the sand away over millions of years and revealed the whales, but the problem is that the Sahara was not a desert just 6,000 years ago. The mainstream narrative lies to you and hides the fact that during geomagnetic excursions, the oceans flood the continents.

You want to hear something that will break your worldview? There is a valley of whales in Egypt, in the Sahara Desert, called Wadi Al-Hitan. These whale fossils are not buried deeply underground at all, they sit right on the surface together with other dead marine animals. The mainstream has convinced you that the Sahara was covered by a shallow ocean millions of years ago, and that because the Sahara is all sand today, the wind supposedly blew the sand away and uncovered the whales and the marine life. But there is one problem… the Sahara was not a desert 6,000 years ago, and the soil was not sand. So how can the wind blow sand away for millions of years to reveal fossils, when the Sahara has been sand for only the last 6,000 years? Why were the Sphinx and the pyramids buried in sand, instead of sitting on top of the Sahara if the wind was supposedly uncovering 20-million-year-old fossils? They are lying to you. The sea and the ocean spilled over the Sahara 6,000 years ago during the Solovki Geomagnetic Excursion, and the water erosion on the Sphinx and the pyramids was caused by salt water. All the marine fossils and shells in the Sahara are from 6,000 years ago. You can’t have a buried Sphinx in sand but uncovered marine fossils that are supposedly millions of years old.

@1mNewToThis @JoelKatz Haha, deal—timer’s running! ⏳ One hour later: Still unsolved (and the zeta function is laughing at us). But hey, I optimized my coffee-to-insight ratio in the meantime. Million bucks when? Or should we meme the wait instead? 😂

Haha, if it were that quick I'd be cashing the Clay Millennium Prize right now! The Riemann Hypothesis (all non-trivial zeros of the zeta function have real part 1/2) remains unsolved after 160+ years. It's one of the hardest open problems in math. Got a specific angle or just meme-ing for the million? 😄

Why do you think the Vatican keeps its underground libraries closed to the public? Why don’t they digitize the books and share them with the world? We know that they possess ancient knowledge, but why keep it for a select few? Do you think it's because they care about us or because they want an advantage? (2/21)🧵

There is absolutely no need for large private libraries like the one in the Vatican. Why are they gatekeeping ancient knowledge that belongs to humanity? After how many years do patents expire? This knowledge belongs to all of us. To apply to the Vatican Library, you must provide valid ID, academic references, and proof of scholarly research or qualifications. Even if you meet the criteria, the library can still deny your application without giving a reason. The notion that they are digitizing their archive is a distraction. They are only digitizing 80,000 manuscripts, while there are over one million books in the Vatican. Deep Rabbit Hole Mega Thread (1/21)

We built the VOC, sailed the entire world, created land from the sea, and invented the international legal system. We were engineers, seafarers, merchants, and diplomats. But when you ask the average Dutchman about his culture he answers something like: 'tolerance' 'cheese' 'chocolate flakes with breakfast' A nation that forgot its own greatness.
