Trump tells Coast Guard Cadets that he may illegally still be president in 2032. "I said come on when's the first one coming? They said in '28. I said I'm gonna be here in '28 maybe I'll be here in '32 too." There is absolutely no excuse for this. This is about as unAmerican as it gets.

Reporter: The DOJ has this new fund — $1.7 billion. Why should taxpayers pay for the January 6ers? Trump: Because in my world, loyalty outranks law. They broke the rules for me, so you pay the bill for them. That’s the transaction.

What was the first thing that made Japan feel different to you? The quiet trains? Convenience stores at 2AM? Kids riding trains alone? Tiny ramen shops? The kindness? The safety? I think everyone has that one moment. What was yours?

Maria Antonia of Austria had the highest recorded inbreeding coefficient in the history of the House of Habsburg at 0.3053 — a level even greater than what is typically seen in the children of a brother and sister or a parent and child union. Maria Antonia of Austria had only six great-grandparents instead of the usual eight, and two of them were also directly her grandparents. This happened because generations of cousin marriages, uncle-niece unions, and other dynastic relationships within the House of Habsburg caused the same ancestors to appear multiple times in her family tree. As a result, certain relatives occupied several positions in her pedigree at once, greatly increasing genetic similarity across her lineage. Her ancestry became so concentrated that the overlap exceeded what is normally seen even in many of the closest familial relationships.

"Only fools would announce a mobilization in the fifth year of an unsuccessful war and at a time when the country is already very tired of war, does not want it, and does not believe in victory. With the modern development of weapons of the enemy - the more massive the attack - the more corpses of the attackers with the same (very modest) results." -Russian Igor Girkin

What if everything you learned about history is completely made up? Legendary screenwriter Roger Avary dropped a bombshell. All of history before 1600 has been falsified. “It's all fake.” “All of history has been changed. About a thousand years have been added to the timeline in order to justify land claims...” He explains how the Vatican, the Romanovs, and other powers allegedly colluded to erase a massive civilization, the Great Tartaria, visible on countless old maps along with the Mongols and Huns. According to Fomenko’s astronomical and mathematical analysis, Rome didn’t fall in antiquity… it fell around 1492–1600. “When you see how history is constantly being rewritten in real time, it’s not so hard to believe.” Is this the ultimate conspiracy or the most dangerous idea in history? What’s your take? Has a thousand years of history been fabricated to hide an empire?

La Vérité
Brivael Le Pogam@brivael

Je veux présenter mes excuses, au nom des Français, pour avoir enfanté la French Theory (qui a enfanté la pire des merdes idéologiques : le wokisme). Nous avons donné au monde Descartes, Pascal, Tocqueville. Et puis, dans les ruines intellectuelles de l'après-68, nous avons donné Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze. Trois hommes brillants qui ont fabriqué, dans l'élégance de notre langue, l'arme idéologique qui paralyse aujourd'hui l'Occident. Il faut comprendre ce qu'ils ont fait. Foucault a enseigné que la vérité n'existe pas, qu'il n'y a que des rapports de pouvoir déguisés en savoir. Que la science, la raison, la justice, l'institution médicale, l'école, la prison, la sexualité, tout n'est qu'une mise en scène de la domination. Derrida a enseigné que les textes n'ont pas de sens stable, que tout signifiant glisse, que toute lecture est une trahison, que l'auteur est mort et que le lecteur règne. Deleuze a enseigné qu'il fallait préférer le rhizome à l'arbre, le nomade au sédentaire, le désir à la loi, le devenir à l'être, la différence à l'identité. Pris isolément, ce sont des thèses discutables. Combinées, exportées, vulgarisées, elles forment un système. Et ce système est un poison. Car voici ce qui s'est passé. Ces textes, illisibles en France, ont traversé l'Atlantique. Les départements de Yale, de Berkeley, de Columbia les ont absorbés dans les années 80. Ils y ont trouvé un terreau qui n'existait pas chez nous : le puritanisme américain, sa culpabilité raciale, son obsession identitaire. La French Theory s'est mariée à ce substrat, et l'enfant de ce mariage s'appelle le wokisme. Judith Butler lit Foucault et invente le genre performatif. Edward Said lit Foucault et invente le post-colonialisme académique. Kimberlé Crenshaw hérite du cadre et invente l'intersectionnalité. À chaque étape, la matrice est française : il n'y a pas de vérité, il n'y a que du pouvoir, donc toute hiérarchie est suspecte, toute institution est oppressive, toute norme est violence, toute identité est construite donc négociable, toute majorité est coupable. Voilà comment trois philosophes parisiens, qui n'ont probablement jamais imaginé leurs conséquences pratiques, ont fourni le logiciel d'exploitation à une génération entière d'activistes, de bureaucrates universitaires, de DRH, de journalistes, de législateurs. Voilà comment on a obtenu une civilisation qui ne sait plus dire si une femme est une femme, si sa propre histoire mérite d'être défendue, si le mérite existe, si la vérité se distingue de l'opinion. C'est de la merde pour une raison simple, et il faut la dire calmement. Une civilisation se tient debout sur trois piliers : la croyance qu'il existe une vérité accessible à la raison, la croyance qu'il existe un bien distinct du mal, la croyance qu'il existe un héritage à transmettre. La French Theory a entrepris de dynamiter les trois. Pas par méchanceté. Par jeu intellectuel, par fascination du soupçon, par haine de la bourgeoisie qui les avait nourris. Mais le résultat est là. Une génération entière a appris à déconstruire et n'a jamais appris à construire. Une génération entière sait soupçonner et ne sait plus admirer. Une génération entière voit le pouvoir partout et la beauté nulle part. Je m'excuse parce que nous, Français, avons une responsabilité particulière. C'est notre langue, nos universités, nos éditeurs, notre prestige qui ont donné à ce nihilisme son emballage chic. Sans la légitimité de la Sorbonne et de Vincennes, ces idées n'auraient jamais traversé l'océan. Nous avons exporté le doute comme d'autres exportent des armes. Ce qui se construit maintenant, en silicon valley, dans les labos d'IA, dans les startups, dans les ateliers, dans tous les lieux où des gens fabriquent encore des choses au lieu de les déconstruire, c'est la réponse. Une civilisation se reconstruit par les bâtisseurs, pas par les commentateurs. Par ceux qui croient que la vérité existe et qu'elle vaut qu'on s'y consacre. Par ceux qui assument une hiérarchie du beau, du vrai, du bon, et qui n'ont pas honte de la transmettre. Alors pardon. Et au travail.

Tesla-Fans, mal ehrlich: Ich fahre zu 70 % auf der Autobahn mit 135 km/h Tempomat und mein Verbrauch liegt bei 138,1 Wh/km. Naja, das ist für mich ein sehr realistischer und guter Wert – kein Sonderfall, kein „ich hab’s perfekt gemacht“. Einfach mein echter Alltag. Viele glauben, Tesla ist nur bei 100–110 km/h effizient. Aber auch bei richtigem Autobahn-Tempo bleibt der Verbrauch sehr ordentlich. Was sind eure realen Verbrauchswerte bei 130+ km/h? ⚡ #Tesla #Verbrauch #RealTalk

@JamesLucasIT Zahi Hawass is notorious for denying permits, forbidding excavations and otherwise delaying research for nearly all Western scientists in Egypt. He’s following his own agenda. I wonder what that is.

There is a building in Egypt that Herodotus saw with his own eyes and called greater than the pyramids and the most astonishing thing humanity had ever made. Almost no one alive today has heard of it... The Greek historian, often called the father of history, had spent weeks traveling through Egypt and had described the pyramids in detail. Then, near the entrance to the Faiyum oasis, he came across something he could not describe at all. He wrote: "I have seen it myself, and I found it greater than words can say. For if one should put together all the buildings produced by the Hellenes, they would prove to be inferior in labour and expense to this labyrinth. Though the pyramids beggar description, this maze surpasses even the pyramids. [...] The Egyptian caretakers would by no means show us the underground chambers, as they were, they said, the burial vaults of the kings who first built it. The upper we saw for ourselves, and they are creations greater than human." It is called the Labyrinth of Hawara. It is generally attributed to the pharaoh Amenemhat III, who built his own pyramid alongside it around 1800 BC. According to Herodotus, the structure contained three thousand rooms — 1500 above ground and 1500 below — arranged across twelve roofed courts, surrounded by a single outer wall, with passageways so confusing that visitors needed a guide to move through it. Two centuries after Herodotus, the Greek geographer Strabo visited the same building and described immense colonnades and chambers each roofed with a single colossal stone, slabs so vast they spanned the entire width of each room without any internal support. Diodorus Siculus, writing in the first century BC, said the architects who built it "left no room for their successors to surpass them." Six ancient authors described the Labyrinth across the centuries that followed: Herodotus, Strabo, Diodorus Siculus, Pliny the Elder, Manetho, and Pomponius Mela. Every one of them treated it as one of the wonders of the world. Then, slowly, it disappeared. In 1888, the British Egyptologist Flinders Petrie excavated the area south of Amenemhat III's pyramid and uncovered the foundations of an enormous rectangular structure, over 300 metres long and 244 metres wide. He concluded he was looking at what little remained after the rest of the Labyrinth had been quarried away in antiquity for use as building material elsewhere. For more than a century, the story ended there. Until 2008... That year, the Mataha Expedition — a collaboration between the National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics in Cairo and Ghent University in Belgium — conducted a ground-penetrating radar survey of the site. What they detected, several metres below the sand, was a grid of vertical structures at depths of 8 to 12 metres, consistent with a network of closed chambers. A 2024 study using electrical resistivity tomography confirmed the anomalies. The implication is staggering: there may still be something down there. Possibly much of the Labyrinth that the ancients described, lying in the dark, far below where Petrie ever dug. The Egyptian government has not authorised further excavation. A nearby canal has been leaking water into the underground chambers for nearly two hundred years. And so the most accurate description we have is still the one written by a Greek historian who walked through it twenty-five centuries ago. Herodotus saw it with his own eyes and described it as the single greatest wonder of the ancient world… -- -- -- If you enjoyed this, I write a weekly newsletter read by over 50,000 people who love rediscovering the beauty of the past.

Přemýšleli jste někdy o tom, jaký je největší spalovací motor na světě? Já vám to povím - jde o motor Wärtsilä-Sulzer RT-flex96C. Technicky vzato jde o přeplňovaný dvoudobý řadový motor s přímým vstřikováním, který má v závislosti na verzi 6 nebo 14 válců. Oproti staršímu modelu RTA96C pak má vstřikování typu Common-Rail, a jako palivo využívá těžký topný olej. Tenhle drobeček měří na délku 26,6 m, na výšku 13,5 m a jeho prázdná hmotnost přesahuje 2300 t. Jenom kliková hřídel má 300 t, zatímco každý válec váží 5,5 t. Nejvýkonnější verze produkuje krásných 80 MW, neboli přes 107 tisíc koňských sil. Pro petrolheady pár detailů - zdvihový objem: 1829 l na válec - vývrt: 960 mm - zdvih: 2,5 m - provozní otáčky: 15-102 RPM - točivý moment: přes 7,6 milionu N.m - plnící tlak: max. 1,96 MPa. - spotřeba paliva: uvádí se až 250 tun za 24 hodin A k čemu vlastně taková obluda slouží? K pohonu velkých kontejnerových lodí. Ostatně proto ten gigantický točivý moment - roztočit lodní šroub vážící třeba i 100 tun není jen tak. Do roku 2007 se vyrobilo přes 500 kusů, novější údaje jsem bohužel nedohledal. V roce 2012 pak přišel menší a lehčí nástupce WinGD X92, který obětoval část výkonu ("jen" 77,4 MW) ve prospěch vyšší úspornosti a menšího objemu emisí.
