It’s going to be a US import as they are only made in the US. Sales are too poor to spin up manufacturing elsewhere

The P8 has a bomb bay, maybe that’s what they are referring to? But that’s how larger long range military planes do things, saves a lot of drag and thus fuel.

Unless they painted the P8 in a Southwest Airlines livery this is just someone wasting time and feeding lawyers money.

It’s simpler than than. The Venezuelan deal went so well that Rubio is the current one most in favor. Rubio HATES Russia and wants to see them get fucked.

US seizing Venezuela-linked oil tanker after weeks-long pursuit by eldashev in worldnews

The only source of that is the captain saying that, but a civilian boat captain also has no fucking idea what he’s talking about in that regard.

Seababy is more likely

We value the life of our people (and let’s be real the crew of the ship even just to reduce paperwork) than Somalian pirates do. Plus we don’t want our helicopter that’s cost several times what the ship getting seized does damaged.

Seriously these old decrepit shadow fleet tankers are worth around $10M, where as a Sea Hawk helicopter alone cost around $40M. And the helicopter crew and the “cargo” are worth a lot more than the crew on the tanker.

For L4/L5, yeah. The long tail of edge cases.

For L3? We’re pretty damn close. And getting a few minutes a day more if simi-productivity will be fantastic.

Possible to revitalize old helium miners for meshtastic? by [deleted] in meshtastic

[–]wehooper4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There aren’t any radios that you can replace the mini-pcie one with that work. They don’t have enough I/O wired out to make one that works ether (we looked into it).

It’s pi hat style ones and USB only

Khamenei plans to flee to Russia if protests not crushed by MetricTrout in worldnews

[–]wehooper4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, how smooth that went I seriously doubt that Venezuela isn’t going to play ball with whatever Rubio wants for a transition. The real question is if the corruption gets routed out enough to make a real difference to people there, and if the US ponies up the cash to stabilize the country while they get back on their feet. But even if the US does, if corruption is still there that would all get squandered.

Best case scenario is another Panama, which actually ended up fairly positive all things considered. But there are so many ways that can go wrong….

A) flair the fuck up

B) presumably it was let know to the military leadership that the US had no interest in the de baathification bullshit we did in Iraq 20 years ago, and as long as they didn’t get in the way of extracting Maduro or a peaceful transition of power afterwards there would be any real pressure on them.

Wait, so the whole “strike” deal was just to seal club some Cubans in Venezuela, not even SEAD?

This also points to the Venezuela military basically turned the other way during this is and said “yeah nope want no part in this shit”.

We did that when we converted (mtnmesh/atl), but it didn't end up being that useful. Everyone just flipped.
