Let's hope they do a better job keeping those f-16s hidden.

That's astonishing if true. Israel has been neutral in this conflict so far.

South Korea has a population of 52 million. NK about half that. Iran 89 million. Russia 144 million. Ukraine 38 million (ouch! down about 5 million since the war started) I don't know how North Korea makes use of their citizens. Given these numbers I don't think sending their young for meat...

Cool. My vacation in Ukraine when this is all over will be much easier now.

Why do these idiots go vacationing in an active war zone? Is the beach really that nice?

I don't have the link handy but I've seen an interview with this guy on the subject. Whatever good reporting he's done in the past he doesn't come off as very even tempered now.

Now the question is did your credit card company just eat the loss or did they manage to get anything out of 057tech.

I've heard this before. I find it utterly baffling. I don't know if he really believes this or if he just wants the world to think he believes it. If this war is getting too painful, just leave. It's not like Ukraine is going to invade Russia.

The thing is, everything he's saying is stuff that's been debunked 2 years ago. Did he step out of a time machine?

Why would it be a problem for us if Russia had a defense treaty with Mexico? Are we planning on invading Mexico? Also we haven't offered NATO membership to Ukraine, not that that's how it works anyways. Please show me where you're getting this information from.

It would not be a waste of your time to examine these claims because they all came up leading up to the war The short version is most of these points are not entirely false but tweaked in a way to where it's basically Russian disinformation. We never committed to not expand NATO. We committed...

Depends on if they have to remove the battery or not. Newer cars have the fuse hatch on the bottom.

Not true. Fake news. Trump has clearly stated that if Russia doesn't accept Ukraine's unconditional surrender then he'll continue to fund Ukraine.

Surrender. The word you're looking for is surrender. I think it might be some quirk of the Russian language but what Putin just offered as a "peace" plan looks like nothing of the sort.

Elon predicts a lot of things. He also predicted that blow things up in Crimea would start WW3. I don't know how much more he has to get wrong before he realizes he's just not an expert on this subject. In fact his instincts are surprisingly bad.

I'm unclear as to what exactly this vote means. Is it legally binding or is it just for optics? https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/06/musk-says-hes-winning-tesla-shareholder-vote-on-pay-plan-by-wide-margin

Was your bank one of the ones listed? I get the impression that not every bank was down.

Wow what a bad day for Russia.

I'm sort of torn on how to think of this from a rational point of view. As someone who actually drives a Tesla this is bad news since the man has no interest in cars anymore. I'm not a share holder but if I were I sort of see the logic in voting for it. Running Tesla as memestock is great for...

Look on the brightside. We'll get more grok and Optimus stuff. If there's any budget left over they might put it into vehicle development.

Don't get my hopes up.

I was just joking. I thought it was a good chance to bring up a funny meme.

I don't see the issue here. It's clever planning actually. If you're starting a colony on another planet you want your crew to be mostly female since they're the ones that are making babies. Clearly Elon is recruiting all females of birthing age to his Mars colony.

2015, yes.

I am now part of the club :(. Fortunately I don't have to drop the pack. It seems easy enough. Easier than an oil change actually. The only problem is setting the new fuse type. Apparently Tesla is extorting their customers for $170 or so per day for the privilege of working on vehicles...

They might aspire to be more than a car company but the reality is according to their website they're a company that sells 5 products and some accessories to those products. These 5 products are all automobiles. Maybe I've missed it but looking at Elon's interviews and tweets he just has no...

Tesla share holders should vote this down for the simple reason that Elon Musk is no longer interested in running a car company. And Tesla remains a car company.

Some important differences there. One that comes to mind is that America wasn't bombed into the stone age during ww2.

France is donating Mirage 2000 jets. Interesting.

Unlikely. Russia doesn't exactly have a surplus of these weapons to export for some reason. It's like they're in a war or something.

I don't know if I believe this. Where are the cope cages?

This is par for the course for Biden. He moves in the right direction just frustratingly slow at times.

Well this is interesting. Apparently the US was furious that Ukraine was using Patriot systems to snipe Russian aircraft.

Try to be optimistic. Maybe they'll use the distraction to withdraw from Ukraine and pretend like the last 10 years never happened.

Ah. I get you. He creates this Xai company which is obviously a fraud and sees how many Tesla employees defect to it to weed out the deadweight. That's kind of clever actually.

If he really wants AI and robots then he should make a company that does that instead of hollowing out an existing car company.

I recall that Russia seized quite a bit of property from the companies that tried to leave Russia in 2022 already. If that's the game Russia wants to play then I think those companies have a claim to Russia's frozen funds.

Confusion. No confusion here. It's more stupid games to try to intimidate the west. The only appropriate response is to give Ukraine more firepower.

The source appears to be Elon Musk...

https://electrek.co/2024/05/20/elon-musk-confirms-threat-give-me-25-of-tesla-or-no-ai-robotics/ This is a very confusing threat. Give him more control and money or else he'll stop using Tesla's resources for stupid nonsense like AI or robots. Decisions, decisions... what to do...

I saw someone link to a news article on twitter that implied that his pro Russian stance wasn't quite as strong as it seemed and that he was on the verge of turning on them. Hardly proof of Russian involvement but its interesting. Then again going more conspiracy brained on this I might say...

Unfortunately Russian's success in Kharkiv appears to be due to Ukraine dropping the ball there and not constructing actual defenses. Also this projectile that hit belgorod seems to be an S 200 or 300 air defense missile, a thing Russia has repurposed for ground targets. So another piece of...

Who in their right mind would take him up on that offer? He's probably going to overdose on ketamine and fire them again in a few months.

I'm not 100% sure but I think that number is casualties, not KIA.

Holy cow! 1740 combat losses today! I don't think I've seen a number that high.

Interesting. Not too far off from some of the non-russian estimates.

Maybe. Or maybe he's just some citizen in Russia giving us his perspective however misinformed it might be. If it's the latter then I'm interested in what he has to say.

No but more often than not something like this is done by Russia. That's just been the track record for this war. Honestly Ukraine doesn't have the luxury of bombing civilian targets. They don't have the ammunition and it wouldn't get them closer to victory. Out of curiosity can you refer to...

I think that might have been one of those older tanks they fill with tnt and send it to the line of contact. I remember seeing a similar Shockwave.
