Oh. I don’t doubt that, I was taking the shadow fleet as a commercial fleet like the Russian one is. I have zero doubt about all non landlocked countries using civilian registered vessels for at least signal intelligence and special operations forces.
I don’t think calling the western fleets shadow fleets is really accurate, but you are right about the issue: in lawlessness everyone is an outlaw.
There is a reason why western countries care about maintaining maritime law and it is to maintain freedom of navigation for themselves.
The big question on security guarantees is how to enforce them. Ukraine already has security guarantees from US, UK and Russia, but look what happened. Nobody cares.
The promising part about this proposal is, that it proposes a tripwire force, but is that sufficient?
How much is one of those fancy pants laptops?
I can barely tell the difference between 720p and 1080p. I will probably never buy another TV.
Maybe I need glasses?
I don’t know if the same applies to sodium batteries, early indicators are that they are less sensitive to depth of discharge as a degradation driver.
Still, the expected lifetime is going to be at least between 4-8 times NCM (traditional li-ion), which is massive.
Less than 200k to have a presidential aide spy for you sounds cheap.
Conflict.
Turkey did it and look what happened to them!
Their airspace was not violated again.
I played an ungodly amount of Tapan Kaikki 3 with my brother.
Best game ever.
No, I was definitely thinking about bees so…
Yay, new anxiety!
Really? This is super interesting. I have been stressing out about when the swarms of murder bees reach me here in the north still in 2020s and you are telling me this is one of the few things I didn’t need to worry about…
Hey, I had been searching for a reasonably priced NC hosting for a while. I even considered a VPS from Hetzner but somehow didn’t find this. Thanks for pointing it out.
Yea, I am not surprised given that the regular lane keep is still ghost braking when going under bridges.
Still, I am surprised how well they are doing, using only cameras.
A little while ago I met someone whose job is to worry about international affairs and they were worried about operating systems.
After that I started worrying about every end user device in Ukraine shutting down until peace was negotiated.
But of course.
The only choice if you are buying one to run a local LLM-AI-Girlfriend.
I don’t think they solved the smelly nerd problem. Replacing the scent cartridge requires disassembling the card. For someone who can’t be bothered to shower, how do they expect their users to do this to smell nice?
Public costs and private profits eh?
I think even a general strike would fall short as an action.
