I mean that would be a little bit more plausible, although the article claims the opposite—that the device is super mysterious and the Americans don’t even know how to use it.

It sounds like someone pulled off a sweet scam though, getting “eight figures” for what sounds like a backpack full of cobbled together radio hardware.

This isn’t even tinfoil hat level, it’s literally something they’ve done before (with crack).

No one has blown the whistle on it yet, but I will be 0% surprised if they do.

Havana syndrome is a joke.

The Steam Deck’s AMD Custom GPU 0405 also saw a sharp dip in this revision going from 21.41% now to 13.37%.

I would have thought the Linux share would be mostly made up of steam decks, but seems that’s not the case!

The people have to do it.

Ha! Good one 🤣

So when the US “neutralized a Venezuelan tanker”, that wasn’t an escalation, but now when Maduro takes measures to prevent this happening again, now it’s a “significant escalation”??

Software as a disservice.

🤣

I like to show them this:

I kinda see liberals as generally fitting into two categories.

One is straight up horrible people who just want to maintain a decent image. (This includes like 99% of the politicians)

Two is generally well meaning people who just aren’t that politically savvy, and they hear scary stories about the “far right” and “radical left” so they figure “somewhere in the middle” must be the sweet spot.

“The West” is Europe and its colonies. Funny to assume anyone you don’t understand is brain dead.

People love to idealize the past…

I mean it starts off with “we have killed your leaders”, to which my immediate thought is “oh sweet, good job aliens,” and then it just keeps making sense from there.

And then you have to rebuild them farther away, creating even more traffic!

I’ve literally seen a test with 4 cars driving around a circle, and they tell the drivers, “go at a consistent speed and maintain the distance in front of you” and after 5 minutes they’re all bunched up on one side of the circle. No amount of zipper merging and nice ramps will fix this.

This is the correct answer. There isn’t a city on earth that has fixed congestion by building for more cars. It’s the places that build for trains and bikes that are best for driving, ironically.

I sent this to my wife.

“Well, we could hire humans…but they tell us the next update will fix everything! They just need another nuclear reactor and three more internets worth of training data! We’re almost there!”

It obfuctates its sources, so you don’t know if the answer to your question is coming from a relevant expert, or the dankest corners of reddit…it all sounds the same after it’s been processed by a hundred billion GPUs!
