Russia unveils newest Yasen-M class submarine The Yasen-M class... attack sub "Ulyanovsk" has left the shipyard and is scheduled for delivery to the Russian Navy by December 2027, the Russian Defense Ministry said. It carries Oniks, Kalibr, and eventually Zircon hypersonic missiles Torpedo tubes are positioned amidships — a first for Russian nuclear subs — to make room for a large sonar array A single-shaft steam turbine nuclear plant provides primary power, with diesel and battery backups The sub will undergo mooring, sea, and state trials before handover This delivery will add a highly capable, multi-role submarine to Russia's fleet, strengthening its undersea deterrent and strike capabilities.show more

A HARDWARE MODDER BOLTED A BATTERY PACK ONTO A... $599 MAC MINI M4 AND TURNED A DESK SERVER INTO A BACKPACK AI RIG THAT RUNS FOR EIGHT HOURS WITHOUT A WALL OUTLET he posts a video of the mac mini with a slim battery module clamped to the side, USB-C plugged into the back. no power brick, no outlet, just the 10 to 30W draw of the M4 chip pulling from a 20,000mAh bank. a full work day on one charge. this is not a portable laptop trick. it is a desk-class AI server that fits in a sling bag the same $599 mac mini i recommended in last week's article as the silent default, now untethered. pair it with a mobile hotspot or a Starlink mini and you have a fully off-grid LLM stack that answers questions in a forest, on a plane, in a power outage. the model lives in the box, the battery powers the box, that is the whole stack this is not a gadget. it is the first time the words "AI server" and "fits in your bag" belong in the same sentenceshow more

Following The Amazon Blueprint For Building A Trillion Dollar... Tech Company Amazon was amongst the first wave of tech companies to hit a trillion-dollar valuation, alongside Apple and Microsoft. They achieved it by pioneering a novel and ruthlessly-efficient business model. On the front-end they united all key consumer markets with a one-stop-shop marketplace. On the back-end, they built the world’s largest fleet of cloud computing infrastructure to power their marketplace, turning these assets into a multi-billion dollar revenue generation vehicle in their own right via AWS. Our vision at PinLink is to adapt this model to the Web3 sector and create the Amazon of DePIN. Our front-end marketplace will be the first one-stop-shop for all DePIN asset categories, whilst the fractionalization model will give retail-level consumers access to DePIN revenue streams. Meanwhile, on the back-end, we’re aiming to build out the world’s largest fleet of protocol-owned DePIN assets, which we will sell fractional shares of on the marketplace. These assets will serve as the equivalent of Amazon’s AWS arm, powering revenue generation at an infrastructure level, whilst fees from our marketplace fund evermore asset purchases, creating an unrivaled revenue generation flywheel. This is how blue chip businesses are born.show more

This is a disappointing take from GetUp!… During COP28,... they posted a video condemning the pledge to triple nuclear energy quoting The Simpsons as evidence. In order to address climate change, organisations like Getup must stick to the science and put their focus back on fighting for climate action- not fighting clean energy solutions like nuclear energy.show more

Tesla’s new Megapack factory in Houston will be their... most capable yet, with an annual production capacity of 50 GWh—25% more than their other two Megapack factories. Once fully ramped, Tesla’s three Megafactories will produce a combined 130 GWh of battery energy storage a year, enough to power ~50 million homes. That's nearly 4.2x more battery energy storage than Tesla deployed in all of 2024. The Houston facility will be the first to manufacture the all-new Megapack 3 in late 2026. This product will partly source LFP cells from Tesla's brand new LFP manufacturing plant in Nevada (next to Giga Nevada). The Nevada facility will begin production in the coming months, making it the first time Tesla will produce and source LFP cells domestically — and from its own operations. Tesla Energy is just getting started🔋show more

Elon just clarified the plan for building the TERAFAB.... The Advanced Technology Fab built at Giga Texas will not be “the TERAFAB.” It will be a smaller fab where they will iterate on chip designs. The TERAFAB wouldn’t even fit on the Giga Texas campus. Several sites for the TERAFAB are under consideration, and it will need thousands of acres and over 10 GW of power at full scale. My opinion: To put this in perspective, Tesla would need 2,000-5,000 acres for the entire TERAFAB lot. This would equal ~87-200 million square feet of available land space for power and battery backup with Megapacks, with ~20-60 million square feet of available space for the actual building. Just for reference, backing up a facility like this with a ~5-15 minute battery backup would require 168 Megapacks and it would for sure need its own power production such as natural gas turbines or maybe even its own dedicated power plant. Here's Grok's representation of the Tesla TERAFAB!show more

🚨 WARNING: A MAJOR SHIFT IS HAPPENING IN THE... GLOBAL ECONOMY RIGHT NOW Japan has sold roughly $71 BILLION in U.S. Treasuries while defending the yen China has sold another $62 BILLION Combined, that is $133 BILLION moving out of U.S. debt But the real story is bigger than the number Both countries are reducing exposure to dollar assets while gold keeps becoming more important Japan is using its reserves to support the yen China is pushing the yuan deeper into global trade through gold, new settlement infrastructure, and alternative payment systems And China has now been accumulating gold for OVER 20 STRAIGHT MONTHS This is not just reserve management anymore It is a structural shift → Treasuries are being sold → Gold reserves are rising → Alternative payment systems are expanding → Dollar dependence is slowly being reduced China is also building out gold infrastructure through Hong Kong, the Shanghai Gold Exchange, and offshore vault networks The objective is obvious LESS DEPENDENCE ON THE DOLLAR And gold is becoming one of the main tools behind that move The chain reaction is simple: Treasury selling → Higher bond pressure → Currency intervention → More gold demand → Less dollar reliance China is not just stacking gold IT IS BUILDING MORE FINANCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND IT Japan is not trying to break markets either It is trying to stabilize the yen But selling large amounts of dollar assets has consequences Bond yields react Currencies react Liquidity shifts Risk assets feel it next This is how reserve systems change Not in ONE DAY Slowly Then all at once THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL ORDER IS STARTING TO MOVE!!!👀show more

HE STRAPPED A BATTERY TO A $599 MAC MINI... AND TURNED A DESK COMPUTER INTO A 14-HOUR PORTABLE AI WORKSTATION 00:03 the battery slides onto the side of the mac mini and the whole setup stops behaving like a desk machine. now it can run from a backpack, power a screen, hold local files and keep working without asking for an outlet. that changes the use case completely. instead of renting another cloud box, one silent computer can handle research dumps, meeting notes, scraped pages, voice transcripts and small automation jobs from almost anywhere. with claude connected, it becomes a moving command center. 45-minute calls become summaries, 120 saved links become organized notes, and messy project folders get cleaned while the machine quietly keeps working in the background. the interesting number is not the battery size. it is the avoided rent. one portable local box can replace $25 storage, $39 automation, $20 transcription and another $30 vps bill if the workflow is built correctly. this is no longer just a desktop. it becomes a portable ai machine that keeps working long after you leave the desk. bookmark this before portable ai becomes the new normal.show more

😳 A Foreigner Shocked by the Huge Variety of... Products in Ukrainian Stores By the way, this is one of the reasons why some are afraid to accept Ukraine into the EU, because our products are of higher quality and lower price. Ukraine’s accession to the EU would mean that products in stores would have to become better in quality and cheaper in order to compete with Ukraine. For ordinary people this is good, but companies and farmers would lose part of their income. That is why some believe it is better not to accept Ukraine into the EU than to improve the quality of life and health of their own population.show more
