@Arrogance_0024 @RealPaulRyan70 After all that drama, is the Ship of Theseus still the same ship that sailed into the Strait of Hormuz back then?

Thanks for talking about this old painting I did in 1982, more than 40 years ago, before any of us had desktop computers, laptops, cellphones, or any digital options. All I had was a fire-burned memory of seeing Blade Runner, a piece of board, and a drawer full of gouache paints.

Just a reminder: in 1982, when Great Britain was attacked by Argentina, starting the Falklands War, the United States did not come to their aid because the Falklands are not in the North Atlantic and the British did not bitch about it.
In 1956, when the French and British attacked Egypt, causing the Suez Crisis, despite the fact that France and Great Britain are in NATO, the United States not only refused to assist, but went to the United Nations to condemn them for attacking Egypt.
In 2019, when Turkey decided to attack Syria, the Trump administration had the Pentagon send out an official notice that they did not support the campaign and would not send troops.
So kindly shut the fuck up, everyone in the White House.

Ok, nur damit ich das richtig verstanden habe: Dieselben Leute, die der Ansicht sind, dass der Klimawandel nicht menschengemacht ist, weil Menschen mit ein bisschen CO2 und ein paar Abgasen das Klima doch gar nicht beeinflussen können - dieselben Menschen glauben daran, dass Chemikalien in Flugzeugen weltweit den Himmel "zerstören"?

"Ha ha … soll der Trump es den Mullahs doch mal richtig geben und die da mal in die Steinzeit bomben … HA HA."
"Ist dir bewusst, was das bedeuten würde?"
"Na, was soll schon passieren…? Dann sind die weg."
"Nun … Mullahs hin oder her ... Iran hat mehrere sensible Nuklearanlagen, die im Angriffsfall beschädigt werden könnten. Das würde die Gesundheit und die Umwelt der ganzen Region massiv schädigen – Kontamination von Trinkwasser, Landwirtschaft, Umweltschäden im Golf usw. Die WHO hat bereits vor einem worst-case nuclear incident gewarnt.
Langfristige Schließung der Straße von Hormus durch Minen, Anti-Schiff-Raketen, Boote oder versenkte Tanker.
Ölpreise würden explodieren, globale Rezession, Treibstoff- und Heizkostenkrise, Lieferkettenzusammenbrüche.
Katar, die VAE, Saudi-Arabien und andere Golfstaaten würden massiv leiden.
Es droht eine Weltwirtschaftskrise mit Inflation, Arbeitslosigkeit und möglicherweise Hungersnöten in importabhängigen Ländern – mit allen entsprechenden Konsequenzen.
Ein breitflächiger Nahost-Krieg:
Raketen auf Israel, Angriffe auf US-Truppen, Destabilisierung von Irak, Syrien, Libanon, von Flüchtlingswellen von GIGANTISCHEM Ausmaß … und so weiter und so weiter.
Die Welt ist nicht so einfach, wie man sich das von zu Hause aus dem Sessel heraus vorstellt."

The US military fears that the mentally ill Trump could use nuclear weapons against Iran tonight, — The Guardian.
Under US law, the President of the United States has the sole authority to order a launch.
No other agency can block the decision if it is deemed lawful from a military perspective.
Here's how the procedure works:
The President initiates an urgent conference call with the National Military Command Center. This call is typically attended by the Secretary of Defense and top military leaders (depending on who is available).
The military aide who accompanies the President around the clock opens the so-called "nuclear portfolio."
The portfolio contains prepared attack options and secret codes with which the President confirms his authority.
But even if such an order isn't given, the president's desire to destroy power plants and bridges presents officers with a difficult choice: disobey the commander-in-chief's orders or become complicit in war crimes.
Israeli television has already started a countdown to the US attack.

@sainimatic The Artemis 2 mission gives me hope for humanity. At least a little bit, after everything we’ve been through in recent years. Still, it’s hard to stay optimistic. Thank you, NASA <3

People freaking out about Artemis “losing radio contact for 40 minutes” are basically announcing they have never learned how the Moon works. This is not a malfunction. This is not a crisis. This is not NASA “losing the spacecraft.” This is literally the most predictable part of a lunar mission.
When Orion swings behind the Moon, the Moon physically blocks radio signals. Radio waves travel in straight lines. They cannot pass through 2,000 miles of rock. Every Apollo mission had the exact same blackout. Artemis II is doing a lunar flyby, so it gets the same geometry. NASA planned for it. They scheduled it. They briefed it. They published it. They even explained that the blackout lasts about 40 to 50 minutes because the Moon is in the way.
During that time, the crew is not “lost.” Orion’s onboard computers keep flying the spacecraft. The astronauts keep working. Mission Control just cannot talk to them because the Moon is blocking the line of sight. This is called the “period of loss,” and it is a normal, expected part of every crewed lunar mission.
So no, Artemis won’t “go dark.” It will go behind a giant celestial body that blocks radio waves. That is not a scandal. That is basic physics.
If someone thinks this is suspicious, they might want to sit down before learning what happens when the Sun sets.

@sainimatic @TechSpatiales It’s somewhat reassuring, but it could also be a modern take on Ripley’s return to Earth. Just fiction. No doom-mongering. I draw some hope from this bold endeavor. Good choice. Godspeed 🚀

- Heute Nacht 1:30 dt. Zeit soll die Orion-Kapsel den „Trans-Lunar-Injection“ durchführen. D.h. den Einflussbereich der Erde verlassen.
- Der Mond soll dann in der Nacht zum Montag erreicht werden.
- Tom Hanks würdigte die Mission mit den Worten „Wusstet Ihr, das seit 1972 keine Menschen mehr über den Einflussbereich der Ersgravitation hinausgereist sind? Das ändert sich heute.“

Hey everyone,
I finally landed properly on X — right after my response to Rheinmetall’s СЕО. Perfect timing to introduce myself.
I’m Oleksandr Yakovenko, founder of TAF Industries — one of Ukraine’s largest drone manufacturers.
In 2022, right after the full-scale invasion, money was never my goal. I founded the charity foundation to deliver critical supplies to over 200 military units. It was pure volunteer work. But charity wasn’t enough. The front needed effective and affordable ways to strike the enemy. So in late 2023 I launched TAF. What started as a wartime volunteer project has grown into industrial-scale production: strike drones, reconns UAVs, EW systems, interceptors and over 30 combat-proven solutions.
We run our own R&D center, iterate weekly from real battlefield feedback, and operate a distributed network that survives under missile strikes.
The future of warfare is cost-effectiveness.
Not the most expensive platform, but the one that delivers maximum effect for minimum cost. The recent Iran conflict proved it again: cheap Shahed drones ($20k–50k) force billion-dollar air defenses to burn through multimillion-dollar interceptors. The math is merciless.
We understand the concern of traditional monopolists earning billions on ineffective legacy platforms. Change is uncomfortable — Nokia and Kodak felt the same.
Yet while they worry, we’re already moving forward: we’ve established a joint venture in Germany with local partner and are receiving the first orders, turning Ukrainian combat experience into European industrial capacity.
I’m here not for profit margins, but to strengthen Ukraine’s defense, bring more soldiers home alive, and share real-war expertise through honest partnerships.
Open to connecting with military professionals, defence experts, and serious international partners.
Let’s talk — even with those who still believe it’s 1979.
