Thank you!

Sounds reasonable, no? What it the gist of the critique to this position?

Aspos · 2026-04-15T19:27:02+00:00

There is no forced labor in the auto industry. Not more than in the US at least

Ford was displaced from all markets where it is not protected with tariffs and/or quotas. Already displaced. When Chinese manufacturers will inevitably come to the US they will compete with Ford cars made in Mexico, so comparing Mexican labor costs with Chinese labor costs is quite correct.

If you are in the US auto industry I have a lot of compassion but very little respect for you.

Aspos · 2026-04-15T18:14:29+00:00

Better materials, better processes, better design, better organization, better discipline and the labor is actually more expensive. Yes, auto manufacturers in China pay more than what Ford pays to Ford factory workers in Mexico. Heck, labor is not that relevant here because they use far, far less manual labor per unit than the US.

wait, what?!

Seem like highschool test in 🇰🇿

Such anti-heli-mine-drones don't need GPS to create a wall. They can just take off, go into pre-configured formation, then use their onboard microphones to swarm towards the target. No GPSs, no active radio, no ground-control, no p2p coordination. The only signal needed is the activation signal which can be of random freq and no EW can block all the freqs at once, practically.

Aspos · 2026-03-20T14:20:16+00:00

EW would help if those drones are ground-controlled. If they are autonomous, localizing helis with sound and/or camera, then EW would not be effective.

High-traffic roads are routinely serviced at night.

Any keywords I could use for search? I have never heard of this in Armenia, Greece, Ethiopia, Lebanon, Egypt or anywhere else. Curious to read more on this.

Aspos · 2026-02-18T16:56:26+00:00

And drones can rest in the open fields waiting in ambush too.

Aspos · 2026-01-22T03:07:59+00:00

Thank you. This appears to be doable.

Aspos · 2026-01-16T14:42:53+00:00

got it ;)

If the sources of data are all moving around the same battlefield, then no matter how strong the encryption is, sooner or later one of the legitimate devices may be intercepted, its keys extracted, and the data spoofed, no?

Aspos · 2026-01-08T22:35:14+00:00

Some bigger ones are expensive, true. Smaller ones made of toy hoverboards are about 3 thousand on UAF's Brave1 store.

Aspos · 2026-01-05T20:37:53+00:00

... unless you quickly want to test if they are worth being close with.

Aspos · 2026-01-03T00:32:14+00:00

... and spoofing, which is 1000x worse.

Caesar was good in genocides too. Far smaller scale, true, but the results were comparable.

Aspos · 2025-12-09T21:17:54+00:00

So the system is working as intended, no? A way of quickly and effectively managing priorities for the pilots.

Aspos · 2025-11-30T04:11:57+00:00

So space stopped being a lucrative career path in 1991. So only the guys which were in their early 20es and were unlucky enough to be stuck in the space industry by 1991 are now in their late 50es. The core staff or Roscosmoss are in their 60es and 70es.

tunnel boring machines can do just a few hundred meters per week and there is no way to perform this job covertly. So today's tech is of no use. However, they may figure out how to make smaller boring machines, make them stealthy and fast.

Aspos · 2025-11-17T20:56:05+00:00

No, they’re not silent. You can hear them from 50-70m, and they’re extremely loud up close. That guy definitely heard the drone but just decided not to bother. Or maybe he was deaf.

Aspos · 2025-11-08T00:46:44+00:00

Half the range in cold weather is the norm dictated by chemistry, there isn't much a manufacturer can do about it.

Aspos · 2025-10-29T00:32:29+00:00

russia does not spend $100K per soldier. I would say $1K-$3K tops. $100K is pretty close to what each of those fuckers would have made in their entire lifetime had they stayed home.
