yeah china just makes things, i doubt that iranian military ever had a shot at getting american gnss receivers. any of modern civilian ones allows for use of signals from all 4 constellations anyway, and the jamming resistance comes from either using encrypted signals or by using more sophisticated receivers that have tiny phased array and can cut out a zone where jammer is (to some degree)

The traditional way to exchange brain worms has been replaced by LW forum tho

still 84% to go

idk i think it's new that someone in mainstream sort of calls them cultists, namedrops EY as cult leader and fanfic writer and everything that you could hear about in our circlejerk, but also shortly before EZ said that he's been called doomer and a crank but now he's vindicated to a degree not thought possible. this all happens after drop of that openai financial info, so EZ also held off, and EZ is PR guy so i guess he knows what he's doing, and maybe he thinks this might be it, or maybe he doesn't have anything better and plays his hand in best way he can. i wonder what comes next

keep up, chinese are waay ahead of you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prayer_wheel tell the president about narrowing prayer gap immediately

zitron's last podcast calls anthropic/openai top brass weirdos and cultists they are, describes their beliefs about building the machine god as bad philosophy and something that must go hard when you're 12 https://omny.fm/shows/better-offline/the-ai-industry-must-stop-doom-trolling-w-cal-newport

you'll be lucky until you aint, then you'll get banned for ban evasion

that destination could be still somewhere with access to stranded fuel and with access to other port, like oman, or they could perhaps truck it to yanbu and ship from there, but it doesn't matter because price increase would probably need to be even bigger for it to make sense. facility would also need to run only on fraction of capacity, and there's probably no point in that if you can't export everything that's made there. currently it might be damaged anyway. what i mean is, there are problems solvable by throwing money at them, but it's probably not one of these

well it would be if refineries nearby would be running, but they don't, because there's no good logistics chain in place

all that jet fuel is right there
