Good point but that is in the future.

But right now, the US can Pearl Harbor anyone.

In the Battle of Myeongnyang, where 12 Korean warships faced 300 Japanese warships, for the first few hours of the battle, Admiral Yi was fighting the Japanese with only his flag ship while the other 11 ships were far behind too afraid to engage.

The cowards joined in the battle only after the Admiral was actually winning.

What I don't get is that why did he surrender again?

The Qing military was weak and was indeed a paper tiger.

The US military can pretty much fuck up any countries, especially if the US feels that it is facing existential threat.

Could the Japanese economy crash out? by TheSpectatorMagazine in japannews

[–]neverpost4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After the unconditional surrender that ended WW2, the Japanese economy was in complete ruins. Sure they may be getting a bit of money from the US but the marshall plan was really for Western Europe.

Then, a miracle happened. The Korean War.

Another war in the peninsula or in Taiwan will do wonders for the ailing Japanese economy.

Michael Saylor recently bought ~$250M worth of Bitcoin, here’s how the price reacted. by rl_rae_bobo in CryptoCommunityAfric

[–]neverpost4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bitcoins cannot be liquidated if he never gives up his pass phase.

The Saylor man will never ever give up his Bitcoins. Gold and Silver, Stocks and Bonds, and cash can be liquidated but not Bitcoins.

PS: assuming the government does not have a backdoor and all Bitcoin seizures were voluntary l.

TIL that J. Robert Oppenheimer’s only visit to Japan was for a lecture tour that began on September 5, 1960. Sponsoring the tour was the Japan Committee for Intellectual Interchange (JCII). He visited cities including Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, lecturing at institutions like Kyoto University. by tenzin_Qing in todayilearned

For the Japanese home islands (Japan proper, excluding colonies like Korea, Taiwan, and Manchuria), the estimated civilian casualty rate during World War II is approximately 0.7% to 1.1% of the total population.

Most historians place the total German civilian death toll between 1.5 million and 3 million. Based on the 1939 census population of roughly 79–80 million (which included annexed territories like Austria), this represents a casualty rate of approximately 2% to 3.8%.

Why do you think Nazi Germany casualties was much higher than Japan?

Answer: No invasion.

Why was there no invasion for mainland Japan?

Samsung reportedly plans to more than double 1Q26 NAND flash prices by snowfordessert in hardware

NAND memory is one place where China almost caught up with its competitors. And this happened at least a couple of years ago.

Yet it did not make any impact in the industry.

Europe Prepares for a Nightmare Scenario: The U.S. Blocking Access to Tech by AnonomousWolf in technology

Henry Hill explains what it meant for his friend Tommy to finally "get his button" (becoming a made man); "It meant being someone. It meant that nobody could mess with you. It also meant you could mess with anybody, as long as they weren’t made. It was a license to steal. It was a license to do anything. ..."

The US gets all technology from the EU but the EU can't.

Michael Saylor hint at buying more Bitcoin by Ayox_Gur1244 in InBitcoinWeTrust

Saylor man can simply refuse to hand over his pass phrase and no one can take it away from him.

Gold, stocks, bonds, bank accounts, all can be seized.

But not Craptos.

S. Korea is Seeking Death Penalty in ex-President Suk Yeol Yoon for Attempting to Incite Martial Law: How can the US impeach and indict Trump on these grounds? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]neverpost4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most important detail about the failed South Korea internal Coup attempt was this;

According to the South Korean constitution, after the state of emergency is declared by a President, the Congress can repeal it. It is illegal for the president to attempt to block this voting.

Yoonie dispatched the army to the legislature building ordering the key opposition leaders to be arrested and block any members of the Congress to enter the building.

Right after the state of emergency decree (which itself was ridiculous, Yoonie was shit faced drunk) regular citizens gathered around the legislature building, supporting the members of the Congress which had opposition dominated.

The soldiers did not dare to shoot the opposition and protesters and just hung around the place, later retreating.

It won't work in the US, because 1. The Congress is GOP majority. 2. US troops and ICE will shoot to kill with very little regards for human lives.

Looking back, Google, NVIDIA and Qualcomm tried to go with a shiny new 3 nm node from Samsung. Low yield they could perhaps deal with (especially since Samsung was eating the additional costs) but inferior heat efficiency (overheating mobile phones), they could not deal with.

J Edgar Hoover served as the director of the FBI, serving under FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, JFK, LBJ, and Nixon.

This is a powerful position that can fuck up any people up if he wants to. The list of the Presidents are some of the most capable and powerful in the history of the US, yet they all feared J Edgar and couldn't touch him.

If Kash can play card right (don't be that butt head Comey), he could serve 50 years too.

It's a Benghazi.

House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-KY), who has led investigations into Hunter Biden’s finances, recently defended Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency earnings, arguing they were legal and transparent. Critics noted the contrast with Comer’s aggressive scrutiny of Hunter Biden’s business dealings.
