I posted this in February of 2023 on the VivaBarnes locals, and it seems the top brass agrees with me. Not sure how I should feel about having the same idea as the twats in DC, but maybe it's useful to be able to get in their head.

"In watching how AI is rapidly developing, I think we're on the cusp of wars changing in ways we can't imagine. And my imagination is running wild.

Four legged robotic soldiers and AI controlled tanks patrol the space. A complex network of fixed wing and quadcopter drones roam the battle space with sensor arrays. Every piece of equipment is connected to an AI commander, which maps out the battlefield down to the tiniest detail. Enemy tank has been spotted and tracked for 6 minutes. Main gun orientation and likely moment of attack are calculated. AI commander prepares to give friendly tank order to avoid, but enemy fires 0.19s earlier than expected. Wind speed is accounted for. Shell speed and trajectory are calculated. Size and speed of shell provides 99.73% assurance it's a 125mm AP round, manufactured by Dynax Manufacturing. Saved specs indicate high risk of penetration. Protection needed.

A 50cal round is fired, grazing the incoming shell. The shell ricochets off the side hull. The enemy tank is hit by a high explosive guided rocket launched 6 minutes ago."

Clown World of the Year Awards - 2025

It's that time of year, vote now for the Locals Choice for Clown World of the Year - 2025.

Poll limit of 8, so please add in the comments sections choices that may not appear in this poll. Some additional nominees: Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, Ursula von der Leyen, Donald Tusk, Alexander Stubb, Annalena Baerbock, Al Jolani.

MOA's take on the latest CIA/Mossad-engineered (with a big assist from Elon Musk) color revolution in Iran. Here's how the article begins:

"Every two years or so the CIA and Mossad are instigating regime change riots in Iran. These attempts inevitably fail.

Currently a few thousand young men are during nighttime burning cars, mosques, shops and police offices in various cities of Iran. Armed agents are firing at and killing policemen. All these cells are coordinated via Internet connections.

It usually takes a week or two until Iranian government forces find the connections, trace down the ring leaders and shut them down. That process may take a little longer this time because some of the terror cells have been equipped with Starlink terminals."

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
