The LA Tesla truck situation is very odd.

My take is that it wasn’t a bomb to blow up the building but a very hot fire in the truck to make the body unrecognisable. The calibre of the gun would be useful in destroying dental recovery.

Just being able to label them as “Person 1b6f6” and see the list of times your glasses have hit that person revealing that they were driving by when you left home in the morning, parked at the same coffee shop as you, were shopping at the grocery when you were, and then showed up at the same place to have dinner as you later in the day.

I think I mentioned this a while back, but around ten years ago a friend and I went out to lunch. We usually went to a fairly nice chain restaurant in another town, every four or six weeks, depending on our schedules.

Over time, we knew what we liked and always made the same orders; I have various substitutions, and he always picked up a to-go order for his wife.

The waitress – one we’d never seen before – came up, asked for our orders, and as soon as Mick started talking, she rattled off the rest of his order, and mine.

It freaked Mick out. We both always use cash, and they never had a credit card number, or even our names. Yet the waitress recognized us and knew our usual orders.

He’s a former IT guy too, but hasn’t kept up with things. I pointed out how it was likely done;. (remember, ten years ago)

There was off-the-shelf and open-source facial recognition software then. Reliability wasn’t great, but even 50 to 75% would be enough. The rest would just be a SMOP. (Simple Matter of Programming)

A) Put a camera by the door to get the face of each customer entering the restaurant. Put that in the database. That’s your primary key. When the waitress keys your order into her Point-of-Sale terminal, grab that data and link it to the face key.

B) A customer walks in and the camera+database say the customer has visited before. Pop the POS terminal data up to show their previous orders. When the waitress is assigned his table, she checks to see if there’s an order history for them, and remembers it long enough to ask if they want to order it again.

Why? Because that’s “excellent customer service”. People like to be recognized and remembered. For the waitress, that’s a chance for a larger tip. For the restaurant, it’s a happy customer likely to return more often. Everybody wins a little.

Companies usually get so fixated in collecting customer demographic information they often forget that they don’t always *need* an ID and demographics to provide their service.

Everyone’s situation is different. I’ve been a TI for decades now, at a level that is intense (but not AC’s level of targeting). At this point, they are really hard for me to miss. But maybe they aren’t as overt with you?
Anyway, my point is, if you want to send them a personal message, after you ID them, just walk up and start talking. You might be surprised at how it goes.

Russians, instead of having 15 men riding on one vehicle which can be bombed by drone, are having each soldier ride a single e-scooter, so instead there are 15 targets.

I’ve had a “lottery money” idea for a while to start a defense contractor on spec that makes 1 and 2 man electric go-karts for infantry that all charge up tethered to an IFV or a supply carrier type vehicle.
The idea for the supply vehicle was a M561 type vehicle with a modular trailer to just swap the back end based on mission. Diesel electric propulsion, with the engine compartment being a diesel generator, electric motor on each wheel hub, moderate sized battery pack, plenty of excess electric for the bed module or charge tethers. Infantry config is a command bed with platoon comms, TAK style terminal, and the rest is storage for rations, ammo, etc. Second vehicle is ambulance, literally the same bed but just designated for the medic and casualties. AC/heat in both. Stick a CROWS turret on top for self-defense.
As long as the trailer has motors on each hub, you just end up being limited by the power you can generate on the number of trailers you train along.
Once you start with this thing, every role on the battlefield will want one. An FSO version with a tethered drone for spotting. A mortar buggy. An FAC version with its own low-power radar station. Make one that’s just a huge water heater that drives around and gives troops a hot shower every few days.
Keep the buggies simple, though. Same electric drive idea, all battery power. No frills. A TAK tracker that can be controlled on the device (and turned off from the GOAT for emissions control) on a super low power mesh network, low intensity lights, crazy bright lights, and a hitch for an litter trailer. Keep your snivel gear on the GOAT to keep weight down on the buggy, you can get to it when you have to charge. A super simple “cruise control” so you can set a course and get both hands free for your weapon, but doctrinally you fight as dragoons, not cavalry.

There’s a reason the Toyota Hilux continues to win as the troop transport and agile equipment hauler top choice of insurgencies.

What you have may seem like a relatively straightforward build until you take into account how specialized it is in terms of repair scenarios.

Now if you can work about 80% of the HUD and mission logic into standardized components, with wiring kits to do mods in the field, that might be something that interests Big Western MIL and insurgents alike, especially if the mods are cheap, relatively fast and hard to fuck up, and can be moved as kits conveniently for installs and repairs.

But the first thought of any insurgent commander with money to spend on transport would be how many Toyota Hilux trucks they could buy for the price of one Gizmobuggy or its mod kits.

The second thought, of course, would be how many motocross bikes could be added to that order.

They might get most of the bang for the buck out of a mod kit in a backpack they can exfiltrate in a hurry, and so their third thought might be why they need to bolt all of this other shit on their perfectly good trucks and bikes.

Keep in mind one of the more successful military “mod shops” for Western militaries is up in Canada and they take Ford industrial trucks and harden them for conflicts.

They don’t build the core truck, they mod the truck as a rebuild, and they upsell the entire thing at a substantial premium. But in terms of concepts, you would be competing with anyone already working in that space for Western militaries, including those people if they decide to get out of the Ford MIL Hot Rod business and into buggies.

The Russians are thinking cheap, implementing cheap, and fucking with an opposing force who has trouble adapting to cheap hacks because of the Wondertoys at their disposal, hence the whinging of their women and also a few of their commanders.

Still, that Gizmobuggy sounds like it’s nice for some battle commanders to ride around in, the insurgents will be sure to swarm them with motocross bikes so they can requisition their own. 🙂

I don’t know when they did it, but SOMEONE (guess which tribe lol) edited the Wikipedia page for Louis Brandeis and changed the Early Life so that what had been a more than sufficient description of Brandeis’s parents being Frankists is now a fragment and also slapped with a “citation needed” as if it’s even remotely questionable when it is, in fact, 100% FACT, and had neverrrrrr before been doubted. In other words: STREISAND EFFECT DEFCON-1, we found a winner, lads, this is a juicy target, frens, so, FIRE, by the grace of Saint Barbara AND Saint Barbra, for EFFECT! Spread the absolute shit out of any and every reliable source for Brandeis being a Frankist. There must have been way, way more famous Frankists than just Brandeis (maybe ALL the Jewish justices were Frankists, who knows yet) but more of the crypto variety. Here is a meme, attached, SPREAD IT, please. And here is a complementary Bitchute video with that meme as a preview pic and a YouTube video where some proud Jews paid video tribute to Jewish justices (without realizing it could be repurposed, probably) sped up and set to the Night Court theme song, creating a new video I’ve titled “Mite Court”, and if you like it, SPREAD THAT, also, please.

Trudeau announced his resignation.

One of the ways the Canadian political system is backwards is that they use a British style parliamentary system, combined with an American style convention system to select the party leaders. That means that months can go between a party leader stepping down and the replacement being selected. It doesn’t work if a replacement for the Prime Minister has to be selected now.

They are going to work around it by getting the Governor General to prorogue Parliament until March 24th, so no no confidence motion can be brought against the government in the meantime, and hopefully select the new Liberal leader then. This person could set a record for the shortest tenure as PM in Canadian history. But if the Cabal has a big move planned and coming up, this could all be just to buy time and freeze the Canadian political situation until they launch.

Its hard to believe this could be possible, but all of Trudeau’s potential successors are even bigger WEF stooges than Trudeau himself:

Russia’s e-scooter soldiers

This is why long ago I came to the conclusion that some sort of walker, like a big ostrich, would be optimal. For speed, mine protection and cost.

Slanted bottoms and high off the ground would protect from mines like South African’s troop transports. Solar power roof with battery for 12 hours and diesel or even better heat engine back up for means cutting resupply lines. Weapons could be two Men, machine guns, portable anti-tank and they could also carry 120mm or other motors on swivel mounts. I wrote about this here with a, very bad, picture.

Needs a “Turtle” shell added like the Russians do in Ukraine.
And I’d mix it with Bradley like vehicles with Turtle Shells added for heavier firepower.

Whatever design you go with needs to be focused on being small, plentiful, fast, and cheap.
Don’t try to make the vehicle damage proof, weapons have surpassed defenses unless some new breakthrough occurs, it just needs to defeat small arms and hopefully allow the men onboard to survive and escape after it’s hit.
Lots of targets that are a waste of whatever heavy weapons are used on them is the way to go.

Air assets should go the same way as long as they aren’t replaced entirely by drones (manned vehicles can’t be jammed).
Instead of 2 or 3 expensive attack helicopters send out 20 minicopters.

The same needs to be done for weapons for different reasons, keep some of the bleeding edge high tech stuff, but make a bunch of low tech high volume rockets with warheads that just fly where you aim them.
Fire a pod of 9 at once at targets like a rocket shotgun.
Bring back ultra high rate of fire multi barrel mobile AA guns to swat drones out of the sky with a wall of lead.

Apply the same philosophy to every system you can think of.
The US and Russia won WWII, Germany lost.
So why have we been imitating Germany’s strategy of pushing the tech envelope instead of making something pretty good in mass quantities?

“…Whatever design you go with needs to be focused on being small, plentiful, fast, and cheap…”

“…Don’t try to make the vehicle damage proof, weapons have surpassed defenses unless some new breakthrough occurs, it just needs to defeat small arms and hopefully allow the men onboard to survive and escape after it’s hit…” Yes. I would armor to the level that it would defeat .50 cal. machine guns. High slanted walls as shown can take a remarkable blast from mines and not be destroyed. The legs might be blown off but that;s why Iincluded back ups.

“…The same needs to be done for weapons for different reasons, keep some of the bleeding edge high tech stuff, but make a bunch of low tech high volume rockets with warheads that just fly where you aim them…”

There is a role for some high tech if we could keep them from looting the treasury. You can get a ESP32 microprocessor that can do face recognition. It could easily lock on a target you select and then fly to it even if it moves as it would constantly be updated, so even if it moved it would be locked to the object, person, vehicle, whatever. These things cost about $4

“…ultra high rate of fire multi barrel mobile AA guns to swat drones out of the sky with a wall of lead…”

Agree again.

“…Apply the same philosophy to every system you can think of…”

Yes

“…So why have we been imitating Germany’s strategy of pushing the tech envelope instead of making something pretty good in mass quantities?…”

There is a problem with this. They almost won. I could think of a few slight changes Germany could have done, of course easy to see after the fact, and we would have likely lost. There’s also the distinct possibility that we are not seeing some things that Germany built that if they would have done so earlier and got some numbers in production could have ruined us.

And we’re not talking about much time either. If 6 months earlier Germany had 20,000 of those heat seeking missiles they made combined with their jet fighters they could have shot down every bomber and it would have crushed the pressure on them. Without air dominance we could not have taken France much less Germany.

One of my favorite examples is the Me323

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messerschmitt_Me_323

If they had 10,000 of those when they invaded Russia they could have taken the oil fields in the South and then rapidly flew Men and supplies all over the steppes, cutting off Russian advances. The Germans lost Stalingrad because of insufficiency of transport. Or that’s, sort of, according to David Irving. To be clear he does not exactly state that, but it’s easy to come to this conclusion if you read all his books. That plane had great rough field capability. We should have this, now, ourselves.

In fact what we need is a heliplane. I have no idea why we do not. Boeing made a small one but abandoned it because it wouldn’t bring in quick revenue. A rotating/swing wing would be the ultimate transport. The one we do have, the V-22 is retarded and stupid. It doesn’t make a good helicopter because its propellors are too small, and it doesn’t make much of a plane either because of all the drag from those big ass propellers. It’s just stuipid.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_X-50_Dragonfly

They had most of the ideas right here by using the jet engine to drive the tips of the wings. Not like the retarded V-22 which burns holes in the runways with its engines. So take this and combine it with,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_wing

Wings that rotate like helicopters need far less power to take off. They use the speed of the air over the spinning wings and can slowly lift off. So you spin wings to take off, after you take off, stop the wing and make it perpendicular, for medium speed and high lift, or at high speeds (and low drag) scissor the wing obliquely. You also get short take off and landing at low speeds because you can make the wings long for low speed and by swinging them still have low drag at high speeds. Another benefit is if you have a runway you can way over load it, spin the wings or just use a long runway to take off and get in the air. But once you burn fuel and unload, then it’s easy to land and take off again for unimproved fields. So you get huge range from fixed runways while not giving up random fields to take off and land at.

Robots are nowhere near good enough to be bipedal, and even further from being good at bipedal motion. It’s far too complex of a movement system for robots to comprehend for the next century at least.

Then there’s the intangible of being elevated unnecessarily high off the ground as a tactical failure point: can’t rapidly get out without risking injury, if it is legged or tips over you risk fall injury or getting crushed, you can be seen from further away, removed from natural ground-based cover and concealment, etc.

Tracked vehicles have dominated a variety of terrain for dozens of years. Easier to maintain, moves across a variety of terrain efficiently, less fiddly bits to get wonky than bipedal bots.

Simplicity is good.

Use the gyro that keeps Segways from tipping over. The trick with bipedal transport is the constant balance. If the turret was stable that solves most issues. Abrams tanks use them in the turret to keep a stable firing platform while the treads are going all catawampus underneath.

You’re just flat out wrong about this. Next century???? Try next year. We already have rudimentary ones now. Musk has one, and here’s robots playing soccer by themselves. They are preprogrammed and decide on all their moves independently. They look a bit retarded but that’s only because their actuators are not as flexible or able to bend in as many degrees as humans. But for a big mech human flexibility would not be necessary.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbyQcCT6890

“…Then there’s the intangible of being elevated unnecessarily high off the ground as a tactical failure point: can’t rapidly get out without risking injury…”

I’m way ahead of you. Ever see a camel bend down to let people off? Same.

“…if it is legged or tips over you risk fall injury or getting crushed…”

The solar panel is mounted on a big roll bar. See the spare legs. You trip, the leg shoots out front and rolls you to keep you from face-planting. You also wear a helmet with a head/neck brace. They use these on Formula One race cars for the drivers. There’s a video of a racer that had his steering break, he runs into a wall at 140 miles per hour and while he does get burnt some when it catches on fire(they got him out), he is otherwise not hurt. You can take really high decelerations “IF” the neck is supported so it doesn’t break. I’ve put some thought into this.

“…you can be seen from further away, removed from natural ground-based cover and concealment, etc…”

Two ways to look at this. You can be seen from farther away up high, or, you can see farther ahead, up high. If you can, being higher up, see people sooner, you can shoot at them sooner. And don’t forget, it can squat like a camel
comment image
and shimmy forward. Let’s also not forget that ALL troop transports now are high because they all have slanted bottoms like the South African transports because to not do so means everyone is killed by mines if they hit them so…Normal new tracked transports can NOT squat down like this one can, so it makes mechs lower than what we have now.

“…less fiddly bits to get wonky than bipedal bots.
Simplicity is good…”

I suspect a few linear actuators driven by electricity would be far, far, more robust than tank tracks with all the serious major friction they have. Rolling metal parts with hundreds of bearings around in the mud is not a recipe for reliability. Electric actuators could be totally contained.

We already have the electric motors, we have the batteries, we have many large AI’s that could game the software, we have the solar panels and surely we can make a 3HP diesel. It mostly just needs someone to put the pieces together. I bet with a team fully concentrated they could build a prototype in 6 months, do the programming by running the things all over, self-correcting its walking programs by “walking it” for another six months and you would have it.

Somebody wants him gone, and this is the length they will go to in order to do it. You know he doesn’t go down alone for this.

People have been complaining about Trudeau for years. The media drum beat against Trudeau started hours after he said that he would uphold international law. Specifically, the arrest warrant on Netanyahu. The toppling of Trudeau is a measure of Jewish power and influence in Canada.
