Russia's high tech side of their military industrial complex is incredibly weak compared to the old USSR days, and even their low tech side is struggling.
At least 1 month ago I recall seeing articles about it.
Maybe stop reading articles that are for some reason supportive of the drug and sex trafficking gangs that have caused the most recent collapse of Haiti?
Can vouch for Viture being much more open source friendly, there's a redditor making a plugin for the steamdeck to make it work far better with the Viture's, and Viture has apparently given them access to some things that Xreal has refused.
Their openness is what won me over for them over other AR glasses. Not only are the willing to help what's effectively a competing software developer, it's also incredibly helpful when the product is so niche, don't have to worry about a company going out of business and your device suddenly becoming a paper weight.
It's called second campism, and it's been happening for a long time, it just used to make more sense when it could actually seem like there was two hegemonic camps during the cold war (still an oversimplistic view).
Now they just support any regime that's anti-US/the original capitalist camp because they have no hegemonic camp of their own to support, just a broad smattering of authoritarian regimes with completely different ideologies.
It's definitely troll bait, but the underlying logic isn't faulty.
Putin could walk away from the war today and face nothing more than embarrassment. If Ukraine surrenders, they lose the eastern half of their country, if not their whole country.
Yeah idk it certainly is confusing, I have multiple ideas from him wanting it to be more dedicated to the gods than just him, to the inscriptions not having the time to be finished before he died.
Just seems weird to me that we have a bunch of Tomb pyramids, and then one that isn't so tomb like but still has a Pharoah inside.
Hopefully this is one of the things we'll find an answer to.
If it was the guy’s tomb, why isn’t his name anywhere? All the other tombs are positively lousy with art. But not this one. The one - graffiti, not official, not sanctioned - name is hidden in the equivalent of a closet and that is in shorthand even?
I don't know a ton about Khufu, but us it possible that he just didn't want as much iconography? I know it's been common for several other cultures (some of Byzantine and Islamic) to not what to have icons or representations of people. Definitely odd, and I'm not sure why almost all of the other pyramids would be tombs and then his wouldn't be.
While there is probably a large amount of support for Hamas in Gaza, that's completely disregarding all of the people who dont support Hamas and have been forced into silence or murdered by them since 2007.
I'm not sure the CIA was doing stuff as advanced as Stuxnet in its LSD days when it was supplying Iran.
Though now that you mention it, I'm surprised we've never heard of the CIA doing more things like obscure Stuxnet style sabotage on leaders' aircraft and the like.
