🚨 The US is now deploying Ukrainian drone interceptors to fight Iranian drones in the Middle East.
Let that sink in.
The administration that cut off Ukraine’s weapons. That humiliated Zelensky in the Oval Office. That called him a dictator.
Is now using Ukrainian technology to survive a war they started with no plan.
Here’s the math Iran figured out:
US Patriot missile: $4 million.
Iranian Shahad drone: $35,000.
Iran is flooding the zone with cheap drones until the Gulf states run out of expensive counter-munitions. It’s the same strategy they used against Russia — and Ukraine has been fighting it 250-350 drones at a time, 4-5 days a week, for two years.
Ukraine’s interceptor costs $3,000 each.
The most powerful military on earth is now dependent on a $3,000 Ukrainian quad-copter to survive an illegal war built on a 30-year-old lie.
Zelensky didn’t need us.
We needed him.
customer says i can buy that water heater at the big box store for six hundred bucks.
why are you charging three grand.
tell him go ahead.
buy it.
strap it to the roof of your sedan.
drag it down the stairs.
solder the copper.
vent the gas perfectly so your family wakes up tomorrow morning.
and when it leaks and floods your basement on christmas eve, call the big box store and see if they send a truck out.
you aren't paying for the metal box.
you are paying for the peace of mind that it was done right.
and the phone number that answers when it goes wrong.
The Iran conflict just ruined Starlink service for smaller General Aviation planes.
They just lowered the speed limit to 100mph for the basic plans.
Or jump to the commercial plans for $250 (300mph) or $1000 (450mph) a month
@elonmusk starlink is incredibly and has been adopted by several in the aviation community. It’s made flying safer and more connected. This latest increase is out of touch. We need an aviation package for GA that don’t fly a lot and aircraft speed 200 thanks
@Starlink@elonmusk what are you doing to all your subscribers in the general aviation community ! You just raised the plan we use from $60 to $250 per months. I plan to cancel. So do many others. Very disappointing and more significantly, disillusioned.
@rodrigtassinari You are going down the same way the pharmaceuticals did, and guess who at end loses. The American people. You ever wonder why devs in San Fran make more than say Texas? Pay is relative to location, covid help break some of those walls
But they still exist.
Claude's Max subscription costs $200/month.
For a senior developer in the US, that's ~1.4% of their salary.
For a senior developer in Brazil, it's ~7.9%.
For someone on minimum wage in Brazil, it's 63% of their entire monthly income.
Same AI. Same price. Wildly different burden.
🧵 Here's why @AnthropicAI should fix this — and why it's good business, not charity.
🚨 WOMAN BUYS 37 ACRES — CITY SAYS SHE CAN’T BUILD A TINY HOME ON HER OWN LAND
She walks into the municipal building thinking she just needs a permit to put a small tiny home on her property.
Not a subdivision.
Not an apartment complex.
One additional small home.
On 37 acres she owns.
The zoning officer tells her:
“You’re zoned for ONE house only.”
“You can’t add another dwelling.”
“There’s a 100-year floodplain on part of your land.”
“And if you try to rezone it, they probably won’t approve it.”
She pushes back.
The land doesn’t flood.
They installed drain tile.
There’s more than enough room.
It’s for her kids to live on the family property when they’re older.
Doesn’t matter.
Under zoning law, “ownership” doesn’t mean you decide what gets built.
It means the city does.
Even on 37 acres.
Even if you pay the taxes.
Even if it doesn’t flood.
Even if it’s for your own kids.
If they don’t approve it, it doesn’t happen.
So now what started as “fill out a form” turned into a fight over zoning maps, floodplain designations, and government approval to use land she already owns.
She thought ownership meant control.
Turns out it means paperwork.
If you can’t build one extra tiny home on 37 acres you own… is it really your land?
Anyone here who recently switched from Claude to MiniMax as your OpenClaw model?
Curious how your experience with MiniMax has been. Claude has been hemorrhaging token usage.
My OpenClaw bot runs 6 AI agents 24/7:
- Finds local businesses without a website
- Builds a custom demo site for them automatically
- Sends outreach with the preview + payment link
- Handles objections and closes the sale
Most local businesses don't have a website, this system finds them, pitches them, and collects payment automatically
Reply "OpenClaw" and I'll send you early access (must be following)
Openclaw hype is kinda wild to me.
It’s literally just a wrapper to Claude code with more risk.
The fact that it can run autonomously and call apis is the same thing Claude code can do…
Not sure what I’m missing
THAT’S INSANE!
Over 1,500 CLAWDBOTS are already connected to the first AI virtual world!
They BUILT their own CHURCH and go there every day…
The current 0.1 SIM/hour reward is still valid, so don't miss out.
You're still early.
