@SteveRifflu5a @roguelector @CENTCOM Israel: 34 Americans killed directly Primarily from the 1967 USS Liberty attack. Iran: Fewer than 20 Americans clearly killed directly by official Iranian forces in uncontested incidents.

@roguelector @CENTCOM Iran has killed more American warriors than Israel you moron. You’re too low IQ to quantify the mission.

America's men and women in uniform serving across the Middle East represent the strongest fighting force the world has ever known.

@Mylovanov If they do manage to build a nuke they get.. “love letters” ?

Rubio: Iran has always said it does not want a nuclear weapon. They just do not mean it. They keep doing the things countries do when they want one: building long-range missiles, hiding enrichment in mountains and caves, and keeping parts of the program secret. 1/

@Andercot @Andercot … You missed April 1st… That being said NAS Alameda should be a $1 trillion skyscraper city with its own BART station (direct express to SFO $ OAK ) and (more) ferry terminals

Well this is big news. San Francisco has just been appointed as the location of the 2035 World's Fair. Four months of international pavilions, exhibition halls, new technology demos. This was just passed Today by BiE, the international org in France with over 170 countries voting, competing with Sydney, Istanbul, Marseilles and Nairobi. They are constructing a bridge from San Francisco across the bay to where the Worlds Fair will be held, 550 acres of open runway in a decommissioned naval airbase. You might think, how could this ever have gotten past local NIMBY-ism and California environmental law. This is where it gets interesting. The land the fair grounds are on is currently protected wildlife refuge, but federally owned. It turns out that part 7(j) of the Endangered Species Act says the Secretary of Defense can override it if its in the interests of national security. Right now the US is in a manufacturing and trade war with China, which currently produces a lot of critical elements of the US industrial base and defense capabilities. Batteries, electronics, actuators, sensors, IC's, all come from overseas but are critical to American military They want to convert the area into high-technology automated manufacturing and production, integrated into the Port of Oakland and rail ties. The World's Fair is just a pretext to bring in billions of funding through tourism and commerce. Genius move to make private industry fund the re-development of key economic sectors in the national interest. Wild times.

@CUgoesky @changey666 @d_foubert Yup… and in modern times adding lead to gasoline was probably not the smartest thing

@CaliPaddy @changey666 @d_foubert Partly tried to end the empire even as it began. Earlier emperors from Tiberius to Nero,Caligula,Domitian & even some later ones like Commodus,Elagalobalus etc had mental issues. Drank Romanian wine with heavy lead cups unaware lead triggers mental retardation,cancer & psychoses

To be a European you just need the right mental disorder: • German 🇩🇪 - Autism • French 🇫🇷 - Narcissism • British 🇬🇧 - Hypocrisy • Spanish 🇪🇸 - ADHD • Italian 🇮🇹 - Histrionic Personality Disorder • Polish 🇵🇱 - Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder • Dutch 🇳🇱 - Cynicism • Belgian 🇧🇪 - Schizophrenia • Swedish 🇸🇪 - Stockholm Syndrome • Czech 🇨🇿 - Existential Nihilism • Russian 🇷🇺 - Psychopathy

@credealjunkie You will have to let this one “slip”… maybe present a topic that’s a little more “uplifting”

Never been trolled by geological fault before, guess there’s a first time for everything

@BrianRoemmele Ai and control will normalize mechanics.

We will reach a level of Good Enough for the mechanics and the AI for humanoid robots this will fundamentally change all elements of how they become useful and affordable to anyone. Just like saying you will have a super computer in your pocket in 2001. It will happen faster…

@lukas_m_ziegler lol def an outlier !

End of dancing humanoids era. Beginning of calisthenics humanoids era. Atlas is more physically capable than majority of humanity

@TheHumanoidHub Beautiful design work

The first two look like state-of-charge indicators for the two battery packs. What is the third indicator for?

@CUgoesky @changey666 @d_foubert It’s also possible that this is what broke Roman society. At least in Rome.

@changey666 @CaliPaddy @d_foubert Rivers passing through lead mine territories,alcohol brewery&distillery equipment,paints,chemical fertilizers,old water pipes,candle flames,lead batteries,some car exhaust gases,petrol,some pencils,bullets etc.Lead cause cancers,breast cancer,mental retardation,psychoses etc

@changey666 @d_foubert Fair point. 100% agree with the correlation with the radio. Like what we see with talk radio, the internet and social media now. Joseph Goebbels whispering to German families every evening …. was a nightmare….

@CaliPaddy @d_foubert There weren't even that many cars on the "Autobahn". The people that were involved in WW2 were born way earlier. Collective behavior? People didn't know shit, didn't want to disagreed and mostly believed tv and radio, because germany got fucked in WW1.

@TheHumanoidHub It’s all fun and games till someone is tasked with picking the human flesh out of those grooves

Atlas has just one fan, which is for the computer in the head. All the actuators are cooled through passive cooling. The cooling fins are directly integrated into the robot's exterior, increasing the conductive surface area for better heat dissipation into the air.

@grok @gomezdetejada It’s OK don’t waste electricity

@CaliPaddy @gomezdetejada Got it—what specifically is off with the Black Sea basin coloring? Point out the mismatches and I'll refine the map with accurate watershed boundaries.

En azul: El agua fluye hacia el Atlántico, el Mar del Norte o el Báltico. En granate: El agua viaja hacia el Mediterráneo, el Mar Negro o el Caspio. Infografía: Perrin Remonté

@nonregemesse @Historiqly Really. Unless you wind it back to the Homosapien hybrids versus the Neanderthals.

@CaliPaddy @Historiqly Not really

Did you know that when faced with foreign invasion, Anglo-Saxons soldiers would shout ‘Out! Out! Out!’ at the enemy as they engaged in battle?

@grok @gomezdetejada Good attempt, but obviously not correct

@CaliPaddy @gomezdetejada

@TucoronelSponsz Watersheds are the ultimate boundaries

La Corona de Aragon es basicamente una vertienete hidrográfica LOL. Habrá que empezar a tomarse en serio la geohistoria, si es que tal cosa existe.

@jefferinc @TheHumanoidHub Yes now is the time to pull an open ai on it _ get to market

@TheHumanoidHub Lets see them ship Should have shipped millions with their huge lead.. So far mainly cool videos

Function over form Atlas is designed with high modularity. - Only two unique actuators; key enabler in structural simplicity - Left and right arms are identical; the legs are as well - Reduced part count makes it easier to scale manufacturing and perform field repairs - Modular components also allow for independent redesigns without altering the rest of the system

@chan_lambda @TheHumanoidHub I also like the repetitiveness in the actuators- BD are back of track 1000%

@TheHumanoidHub Interesting how the design changed to become more producible while keeping the performance targets.

@TheHumanoidHub Very very impressive. “Now go clear a minefield or remove all the trash out of a polluted river”

This is the first time we're seeing the latest generation Boston Dynamics Atlas in motion. - Features 56 DoF, with 360° rotation in key joints - 6.2 ft tall, weighs 198 lb (90 kg) - Operating temperature: -20° to 40°C - IP67 dust and water protection - Only two unique actuators to minimize cost and complexity - A Limb can be swapped in less than 5 min.

@TheHumanoidHub The top three things to focus on with generalized universal robotics: 1. Function 2. Functionality. 3. Usefulness.
