  8. Well the Brits fought one Afghan War between 1838 and 1832, didn’t like the outcome and had a do-over called the Second Anglo-Afghan War in 1878 to 1880.

  11.  @pyrioncelendil  can’t you just buy plastic lawn chairs and underpants with yuan?

  12.  @ieuanhunt552  it continues to this day. Remember a little while ago when the DOE funded National Ignition Facility announced that they got more energy out of a duterium fuel pellet than they put in to make it achieve fusion? Consider for a moment that our most powerful weapons use thousands of those duterium fuel pellets in their second stage and until now we didn't know how to make them work efficiently.

  13. ​ @erikvan9582 the alternative is to force interest rates down to increase the business borrowing, and pay higher wages that bid up the price of everything and then you starve because the supply of money is at will but the supply of goods and services are finite. Party like it's Weimar Germany.

  14. The real question is now that Zelensky has given the ultimatum of NATO membership or Ukrainian nukes, will Trump invade Ukraine to look for WMDs?

  16. what would have happened today to Russia’s Ukraine war if America had destroyed Iran under George W Bush’s leadership, so there was no Iran to sell drones to Russia?

  17. 1:50 What if somebody captured a world leading chip fab intact and made killer robots? Would that reduce the manpower strain on nations with aging soldiers?

  18.  @ChucksSEADnDEAD  use a gasoline generator range extender like General Dynamics uses on the Mule weapons carrier.

  19.  @jaspervaneck3258  so only we can do the killer robots if we want to. In that case what value is there to take Taiwan intact, rather than destroy/sabotage it and deny us a source of chips (at least until TSMC Arizona comes online)?

  20. Oh no Ukraine accidentally hit the shipment of pagers for Lebanon!

  23. Bitcoin always has to be a dark horse, the payment rail for billionaires to move money between nations at war. If Bitcoin becomes mainstream it won't be cool anymore.

  24. New Zealand is two islands but the NZDF Navy is about three ships strong. Britain and Japan became naval powers but why didn’t NZ?

  25.  @iLovettGolf  the lesser countries of western europe needs france, france does not need western europe.

  26.  @iLovettGolf  greece needs france, italy needs france. The eurozone is a house of cards of loans and handouts. And France needs the CFA Franc to bankroll it all.

  27.  @iLovettGolf  good point. Southern Europe needs France and Germany, and France needs to maintain interests in Africa and Asia to pay for it all. Idk where Germany gets its money or how long it can keep bailing out the Eurozone.

  28.  @iLovettGolf  interesting. Looks like I mistook southern europe for western europe. Maybe western europe would be better off without france and southern europe?

  29. @ chr1s, “Ukraine’s AI Drones Seek And Attack Russian Forces Without Human Oversight” by David Hambling Senior Forbes Contributor Oct 17, 2023,08:07am EDT. Saker Scout can identify and destroy “military objects” autonomously. Also the Aerovironment Switchblade has an autonomous mode, as reported by Forbes magazine.

  30. @ balthasar, maybe attack littoral combat ships and landing craft with autonomous air drones? Or have a floating semi mobile sea mine type drone that can identify the big enemy metal object in otherwise nonmetallic water

  32. Joe Brown from Heresy Financial notes that hyperinflating economies dollarize first, but may switch to something else later. If they ever do dedollarize the us dollars will come home and drive US stocks to the moon.

  37. Snow may be a faint memory for many places soon, replaced with heatstroke slaying man and beast alike as the wet bulb temperature exceeds liveable ranges. The GDP climate risk map and the 2024 conflict map are almost the same map. Notable exceptions are Iran and Brazil. I guess it’s hard to do the “green transition” when people are shooting at you.

  49. A week later it feels like the whole thing was staged to make Zelensky look like a saint and force Russia to reject the deal and face a massive ramp up in European aid to Ukraine.

  50. 4:02 On Caladan, we ruled with sea and air power, the Duke said. Here, we must scrabble for desert power. This is your inheritance, Paul.
