The Daily Stoic guy is crashing out because Ivanka Trump praised Meditations. This is the worst thing to happen to stoicism since Marcus Aurelius found that gladiator with his wife.

People who have lived in the country understand this!

帅气！以前都不知道看个啥！击剑世界大赛将引入“剑尖可视化系统”。该系统由日本人开发，曾在东京奥运会中使用，无需标记即可追踪并呈现剑尖的运动轨迹。

No. This line is a bitter and simplistic cope. Strikes on the Iranian theocracy have achieved the below: 1) From Khamenei down, the entire belligerent mad-mullah leadership of the Iranian theocracy has been completely eliminated. We are thus now talking to a new leadership in Tehran who will negotiate a long term peace that will actually last. 2) The Iranian theocracy’s demand for a ‘global jihad’ against America failed. By attacking Sunni Muslim Arabs during Ramadan, the Iranian theocrats overreached, and exposed their malicious regional intent, thereby permanently harming their coveted claim to Islamic leadership. 3) Israeli and Iranian mutual permawar games are exhausted, have never been more unpopular and are now exposed for the entire world to see. Trump will now resume his Gaza peace Board & continue unhindered with his grand regional settlement for peace. 4) Iranian regional colonialism has ended. The Iranian theocracy’s attacks on Sunni Muslim Arabs have caused a major ‘Middle-East Nato’ security realignment of Sunni Muslim states, via nuclear Pakistan. This will lead to the emergence of an independent Sunni Muslim regional power bloc, in addition to existing US, Russian & Chinese regional blocs. It is a new dawn for Sunni Muslims. 5) Russia & China stayed out of this, increasing the chances of solving Ukraine and Taiwan in similar spirit. We are hence actively avoiding any chance of WWIII & the Thucydides Trap. 6) In the process of these major & historic permanent *strategic* shifts, tactically, the Strait of Hormuz was closed by Iran’s - NOW DEAD - leadership. It is only natural to demand that the Strait be reopened. This does not cancel out the above strategic wins.

🙏 My wonderful friend, the host of splendid and well attended cigar nights, the father and husband to a beautiful happy family. 🙏 If I may share my thoughts, i believe them to be well founded. Should I be wrong in any point, trivial or consequential , i invite correection. use PL and as it so happens, I’m also an investor 📈 My take is: a. we know that there is Chinese sat imagery. This is undeniably true. But that doesn't mean the data is reliable. b. What is unknown is the AI enhancement, detection, tagging etc. “this is WHAT we are looking at” c. The output of the AI, in itself, is not ‘actionable’ - because just like LLM’s - these things hallucinate - and frequently misinterpret the data - it can, and does lie - AI creates artifacts and then the AI treats it as “true” Side note: this is one big reason why Hegseth and rank have referred to a “kill chain” that’s been taken out - because getting “information” is one thing, but acting on that information, or not, is something different - when the kill chain has been killed, what do you do? It’s a very big problem for Iran right now - They have no way of knowing if what China has given them is “true” and they no longer have that layer of war decision management to make a top level determination. d. No doubt Iran has used China imagery militarily - but also no doubt they are willing to kill by friendly fire very large amounts of their own vast expandable forces. - They have a very high pain tolerance for civilian casualties - if they are given a pizza pie it has the potential to be used militarily e. One very likely reason the Trump administration has closed up PL imagery is because China extensively relies on Western data and removing that imagery is one less crucial data point for them to draw on. Yup! They buy the data and then reprocess it - “attribution” f. The only way to determine if what China “has” is “true” is to do pixel by pixel forensics and cross reference with other data points: 1. known satellite ephemeris/ orbit paths/timing/etc 2. ground data, flight tracks and shipping etc of the type that is not in the public domain 3. visuals assessment from multiple angles AND, probably what's most important is Historical accuracy. In America the "experts" who inform top down decisions and pundits and 'news people who got a tip from a source' - don't get killed, nor do their families, when they're wrong, or have lied for political reasons, mischief, subterfuge, or financial gain. In China and Iran - those same people get killed, as will their families - and in the most inhumane ways conceivable. - It's shock and awe so that the others know not to "do what that guy did" g. China, like any other customer, buys Western sat imagery from PL, and then blends that product into its own clusters of data from its own indigenous military and commercial sat providers sell - then they add those same layers of AI etc that I've already discussed. h. Not all satellite imagery is the same. How can this be thought of? How can i judge a good Jitterbug dancer from a bad Jitterbug dancer if I don't know the dance and the rules of the contest? No doubt the simple photo data from Chinese satellites is reliable for the BROAD features. In my example the dancer is dancing - But the added AI tagging etc introduces uncertainty. In my example the person is making what appears to be wild motions. You have no idea if what you have seen the dancer perform is good, or not. You can't judge it. It is my experience that 'OSINT' is garbage and its a world of cut and paste. OSINT seems to derive from obscure'd source(s) of unknown provenance and then diffused out via social media thousands of times. Each paste'r adds a little here, subtracts a little there, adds, their own stylistics, and then posts, of fourse claiming authorship or attributing some part of their source info to another post'r doing the same copy and paste. i. The info from China must be treated as a “credible operational threat” to American forces - because if its not treated in this manner people may die, just as bomb threats are treated. This is a long response to a short question that i felt should be broken into bite-sizes. PL has been closed up because it is the right thing to do to keep our service members alive. China has, like with people dying on the streets of Wuhan, released videos, or directed others to release images and videos on its behalf, that must not be believed without critical analysis - and the tools of analysis and forensics, we, you and I and everybody else here, do not possess. Only a few people do, and they just rescued a service member deep in iran Should Trump and Hegseth release the actual coordinates of our service members in and around Iran to prove China sat imagery is lying? /end You are a wonderful person Mike, beautiful family and a happy life. Everything else, is just everything else. Your friend, Adam

I know it’s impossible to get a ticket but why can’t teams charge for food or drinks like the Masters does? One of the most historical events ever charging $8.00 for beer and a chicken sandwich at most when a team 45 games under .500 charging you $54. Make it make sense. Make going to a sporting event affordable

Interviewer: Can you perform under pressure? Me: I can do the Bowie part, but I don't have the upper range to sing the Freddie part.

🚨 today this happened 👇

An interesting thing that happens on here and TT is recursive slop - some big account gets psyopped by slop - in this case fake AI images of Tel Aviv - and then they promote their own delusion, without even referencing the original debunkable image. You get this on TikTok too, some big account will start a video saying “some girl on TT said” and there’s no link to the original, but her audience trusts her so it becomes hard or impossible to debunk. You basically end up with a chain of hearsay repeating and broadcasting what is originally slop. I don’t have a solution, there’s no community notes that can fix this, people will settle on a normative belief (“Israel bad”) and then actively seek out information to confirm this (“Tel Aviv being destroyed by Iran”). Once they find that information they stop. They have resolved the tension between what they see in MSM and what they want to be true. This is more evidence for my theory that most people are not fully conscious
