@DerekPederson3 @glencoe2004 Except, even with our current limited technology, the fastest human probe could make it there in 6600 years, not 1000000, which raises the question of why we don’t see von Neumann probes.

@Davidhetfield2 @TrentTelenko Yeah my main point is that the us military isnt "obsolete" just because its behind in one niche.also 10k drones have no way of stopping a b2 bomber using its maximum range.
English
@honouredone1237 @TrentTelenko A high end asset fills a gap left by a lower end assets, but doesn't necessarily replace it.
A B2 bomber would be of much less use to ukraines frontlines than 10k drones.
English
This is the hardest truth.⬇️
The US military hasn’t the remotest clue how to use 10,000 drones a day and an institutional culture that will have to lose a war before it will give up its addiction to big/expensive/few platforms and “platinum bullets.”
Tymofiy Mylovanov@Mylovanov
Petraeus: The U.S. has not remotely learned the lessons it should from Ukraine. This is the future of war: Ukraine alone uses 10,000 drones a day, and 90% of Russian casualties are caused by drones. That should force institutional change. 1/

@honouredone1237 she actually still has the same avatar state it’s not weaker just because there are no past lives. there is NO surviving that poison idc how strong your avatar state actually is, it was designed to kill the avatar. the avatar state at that point would only serve as a factor-

None. The poison was created to kill the avatar. That was the point. Even Zaheer said Korra should have died but she was able to fight it off

What other avatar do you think can survive this?

@mixcenturion I wonder how the modern us political system would respond to experiencing the weekly average military and civilian casualties they get

>Ukrainians watching Americans debate our losses in the Iran Thing
Intelschizo@Schizointel
We have lost 42 aircraft of which 24 are drones so that leaves us with 18 manned aircraft losses. Out of these three were friendly fire and 7 were from the rescue operation of the F-15E that was shot down over Iran. 24 aircraft losses spread out across over 10,200 air sorties striking over 13,000 individual targets. With nearly 40% of the aircraft lost from a single event, I don't think that's a sign of US power decline in the slightest.

@AlHendiify Authority=power.the us is far more powerful then cuba.this is also why the citizens and residents in the us have to listen to the court their backed by the government and it has a monopoly on force and violence.
English
Okay? why would Cuba, a country famous for not being part of the US, have to listen to what our Supreme Court says.
The New York Times@nytimes
Breaking News: The Supreme Court ruled that a U.S.-owned port business could sue over assets Cuba seized in 1960, possibly opening the door to similar claims. nyti.ms/3RkvMLz

@DamnitBiggie Avatar roku bending when he took over aang counts since he was obviously dead at that point and it certainly wasnt aang.

That’s what makes her the greatest air bender in the franchise because not even the avatar retained their bending in the spirit world.

Is this Jinora just airbending in her spirit form?

@starryxchaos Toph mastered sand bending afterwards and still holds the best sandbending feat in the verse that being creating a miniture city in an instance.

Sí. Estoy seguro de que Toph Beifong, quien encontraba el control de la arena increíblemente difícil porque es controlar la tierra como si fuera un fluido y no podía percibir el mundo a través de ella, podría controlar la lava. Directamente tierra líquida.

Toph invented metalbending by feeling earth in metal so why can’t she lavabend?

@shellyous It's bad parenting if u beat them, but u can help them explain why it's necessary to pray, it's a parents duty to teach the religion to their kids, unfortunately a lot of trauma comes from parents who won't do the explaining and resort to beating their kids

Can the child say no and what happens if they do?

@mistevalis @USAMaritimeX Thats not how it works.american companies will get replaced by companies with much more government support as with countless other industries the us has lost that way.
English
@USAMaritimeX America will dominate because there will be a market with low barriers to entry for American companies.
But you know this because you’re a cruel rent seeker who wants everyone to suffer for your personal handout.

The Jones Act is far from perfect, but it’s one of the only things keeping the remaining American Maritime industry alive.
When people talk about repealing it with absolutely no alternative plan, it’s incredibly frustrating. It might solve a few problems short term, but it will just let the 🇺🇸 industry we have left slowly die, and then we may find ourselves back in the same WW1 shipping scenario that helped trigger the creation of the law.
And there is room for discussion and change, but why don’t we come up with a plan that actually helps Americans keep their jobs or even grow the industry?
With the recent Jones Act waivers, there was no attempt to even get foreign shipping companies to transfer more ships to the 🇺🇸 flag, hire any American crew, or even repair a commercial ship in a U.S. shipyard as a condition of receiving these waivers. So what are we doing? Are we trying to bring back American Maritime or just accelerate its decline?
We need better maritime policy, and SHIPS for America would be a step in the right direction. But I also think we need a lot more than just that.

@sathishpgw @AstorAaron If iran won why are they under a blockade?
English
@AstorAaron When you lose the war, you don't get to frame the terms..Iran won it and they will want their sanctions to end..also, it is good for the World when an Oil and gas major comes back into free markets
English
This rumored "deal" is so humiliating for the US that I have to believe it's bogus.
Gregory Brew@gbrew24
If accurate, the deal being negotiated right now is very favorable to Iran. US unfreezing funds and exempting Iran from oil sanctions while negotiations proceed; recognizing Iran's right to enrich at low levels. The sticking points remain phasing (US wants a deal immediately,

@deepfriedWA @dietrichBonh @HormuzLetter If they control the strait why havent they lifted the blockade on their most important export?.theres nothing iran can do to the gulf states that the us and isreal cant do to them they dont have a monopoly on force in region.
English
@honouredone1237 @dietrichBonh @HormuzLetter But they control the strait, and therefore have Trump by the balls. And can destroy all of the Gulf states, so doubly so.

BREAKING: Iran is rebuilding its military industrial bases much faster than expected and has already restarted its entire drone production line during the ceasefire, producing hundreds a day. Two-thirds of all missile launchers are now operational, with Russia and China actively providing major new support including missile and drone components, per CNN.
The Iranians have "exceeded all timelines the US had for reconstitution," a US military official said. Iran has also moved a large number of new mobile launchers across the country and kept its coastal cruise missiles largely intact, preserving the ability to strike ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz.
