also “party of personal responsibility” when they choose to not investigate any of this

that key to heaven was probably something between mistranslation and bs, but there’s so many more awful shit!

electric swamp - iraq used swamps as a natural barrier, laying mines, placing mortars and HMGs around, and also putting high voltage wires in water. when iranian raid was detected, they’d just fire a bit until iranians fell to water, then turned power on

BWR fights - phoenix missiles on iranian tomcats. iraqis had no idea what’s going on to the point that they suspected sabotage (mirages just fell apart in air for no reason)

war profiteering - lots of countries sold covertly weapons to iraq or to both sides, but swiss were probably worst: they sold gas masks to iran and chemical weapons precursors to iraq

ww1 era warfare complete with said chemical weapons, and also genocide of Kurds for some reason

and all for nothing (result: status quo ante bellum)

it wasn’t worth it with covid and all it did was a magnet for spurious, ill-understood effects. it isn’t worth it even if you throw a chatbot at it, especially considering how dogshit these things are at anything factual https://cen.acs.org/pharmaceuticals/drug-discovery/Is-drug-repurposing-worth-the-effort/99/i3 https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/drug-repurposing-how-often-does-it-work

Or maybe strike was supposed to happen just before deal came into effect but someone was late, or they fucked up timezones

No good faith there either way

the problem becomes size and amount of expensive materials, technically it’s not even particularly interesting, all parts are there and some designs were tested when thermonuclear weapons were first developed

50s were also sorta time of finding out what practical limits were, but when Teller showed them 1000Mt device USAF decided that it’s a bit too much, couple Mt is plenty. when USAF tells you it’s too much boom you might have gone insane

other than that, Teller was a fucking asshole, he stole credit for other’s people’s work, he clinged to his own failed ideas against evidence (that makes him a shitty scientist), despised Carl Sagan, he was responsible for getting Oppenheimer out of Los Alamos, also a schemer and a rabid mccarthyist the entire time. so maybe you’re onto something

if he was worse at physics he’d be probably setting acetylene bottles on fire in some field or something like this

that’s 50s nuclear weapons development for ya

also probably didn’t help that it’s likely that Teller had autism and just wanted to make bigger bomb until he was removed from nuclear weapons design teams

PiS pro-russian? what the fuck are you talking about

you can say a lot about them, they’re corrupt, they dismantled judiciary, they’re anti-EU, they’re nationalist, they are republican cocksuckers, but they’re not pro-russian

e: just like 2 days ago i’ve heard that Duda wants Americans to station nuclear weapons in Poland. that’s pro-russian PiS for you. who do you think are these supposed to be used against, aliens?

stop reading youtube comments

update 2: why the fuck i’m arguing with 5d old account

Euromissile was a company that after mergers and such is now part of MBDA

(i mean HOT-2/3 missiles)

No, you see, euromissile that we have now is antitank weapon that you can fire out of eurocopter. There’s many more of these things than ASMP-A or -R

now just figure out how to strap euromissile to it and put euronuke in that

(one russian commander specifically ordered that minefields should be 4x denser than in manual. i think that might be surovikin)

Keeping consumers alive as a class is indirectly encouraged in capitalism.

but that won’t show in results for next quarter, so they don’t care

what can i say except to quote david gerard:

AI alignment is literally a bunch of amateur philosophers telling each other scary stories about The Terminator around a campfire

this is all year+ old info
