🇯🇵THE BULLET TRAIN WAS A DEATH TRAP - UNTIL A JET ENGINEER FIXED IT Japan’s original Shinkansen design shook so hard at 200 km/h it nearly vibrated itself off the tracks. Engineers blamed the wheels. Wrong. The real problem? A suspension system so bad it couldn’t survive a joyride....

The sad thing about the fanatics is that they do not realise how the world laughs at us when they hear our leaders say these things. It costs US$160 million per kilometre to build a bullet train network. That is why Stephen Sucker called it an Alice in Wonderland “wet” dream. Even South Africa does not have a bullet train, yet it is three times larger than Zimbabwe in terms of land size. To build a bullet train rail from Bulawayo to Harare costs US$74 billion, just to connect Harare and Bulawayo alone. Is that the immediate need for Zimbabwe? Can Zimbabwe afford that now when, out of the total road network of 97,267 kilometres, only 18,000 kilometres are tarred? Hospitals have collapsed, schools have no books, and more. Surely, the fanatics must realise how embarrassing it is for a leader to jump to something that the country cannot afford, even without corruption. It gives the impression of someone with presidential ambitions but without an understanding of the task ahead and what the country truly needs! When we critique, we are doing so to help him realise how misguided his ideas are in relation to the immediate necessities of our time. I say our time because nobody above thirty will see a bullet train in Zimbabwe, not because of the cost, but the hierarchy of needs. You first fix hospitals, schools, ordinary rail, roads, dams, and all the basic necessities of life. As of now, there are only 15 countries with operational bullet train or high-speed rail systems. Not even Britain has a bullet train, we can’t talk of bullet trains when our people are walking on sewage and have no clean drinking water. I understand why, psychologically, our people hold on to useless illusions and get angry when their favorite leaders are critiqued. It is because we grew up in a country with only one television station, where journalists lined up to bootlick politicians, even as they said useless things! So we are a society that doesn’t understand the essence of real journalism, we want our journalists to write for politicians instead of about politicians! It does not make much sense for Zimbabwe to prioritise a bullet train at this moment, given our current economic and infrastructure challenges. While a bullet train, or as it is conventionally known, a high-speed rail system, could be a long-term asset for modernising the country’s transport network, there are more immediate needs that should take precedence, such as fighting corruption and fixing our hospitals.

🇨🇳 CHINA'S MAGLEV HITS 700 KM/H IN 2 SECONDS - PLANNING 1,000 KM/H - WHILE AMERICA ARGUES ABOUT FIXING POTHOLES China just tested a maglev platform that accelerates to 700 km/h (435 mph) in 2 seconds. Target speed: 1,000 km/h (621 mph). That's faster than commercial aircraft. On the ground. The acceleration alone is borderline violent - 0 to 435 mph in two seconds is 9.8g. Fighter jet territory. Passengers would need specialized seating just to survive the launch. But let's address reality: This is a test platform. Prototype speeds don't mean operational trains. China announces ambitious projects constantly. Some materialize (their existing 430 km/h maglev in Shanghai works). Others disappear quietly. The pattern though? They're attempting scale nobody else is. High-speed rail connecting every major city. Maglev research pushed to extremes. Infrastructure spending that makes Western investment look microscopic. Meanwhile in America: Amtrak averages 105 km/h between cities. California's high-speed rail project started in 2008, burned $10+ billion, and hasn't moved a passenger. The fastest train in the U.S. hits 240 km/h for exactly one 54-mile stretch. China's going for 1,000 km/h. Even if they only achieve 800 km/h operationally, that's still triple America's maximum. Here's why this matters beyond trains: Infrastructure capacity signals industrial capability. If China can build and operate 1,000 km/h trains, they can manufacture the precision components, power systems, and control mechanisms that transfer to aerospace, military, and manufacturing. The U.S. won the 20th century partly because it built the Interstate Highway System when others couldn't. China's betting the 21st century winner will be whoever builds impossible infrastructure first. They might fail. Engineering challenges at 1,000 km/h are extreme - air resistance, track precision, emergency braking, passenger safety. But they're trying while America argues whether to fix the L train in New York. Even Chinese failure puts them ahead. You learn more from attempting the impossible than from successfully maintaining mediocrity. Source: Xinhua, CGTN

The Lyrics of Imperfect Mew : Every moment in the song is based on a true story. 🗣️: Can you share some of it with us? Mew : Looking at the lyrics, the first verse starts from the moment of waking up. I wrote it when we were on a cruise, we went to the Caribbean together. The image of sunlight shining on his face, that messy, bedhead look right after waking up... just how incredibly cute he was 😆 Mew : The next verse talks about things we’ve experienced together, such as when we went traveling and missed a train. When we look back on it now, it’s actually funny. Or when it suddenly started raining and we didn’t have an umbrella, so we had to take off a shirt and cover ourselves. In those moments, the imperfection somehow became perfect for us. 🗣️: So this is all based on a true story? Mew: All of it is real. 🗣️: Not a scene from a series? 😂 Mew: No, it really happened. The train incident happened in Munich. Usually, he’s the one who checks the schedule. Like, where to go, which platform and what time. But that day, it looked like he read it wrong, so we rushed because we thought we were going to miss it. But actually, he didn’t read it wrong, the train changed platforms. We had to go to another one. It was funny. No one was at fault… the platform was the one that was wrong 😂 Mew : When I told him which moments behind the song, he related to it so much. He listens to it every night now. He probably knows the lyrics better than I do 😂 Mew : Usually when I write a song, I let him listen to it first. He relates to this one so deeply that he especially loves it.

CRUCIAL ANALYSIS of Charlie Kirk assassination. There is NO WAY a .30-06 round hit Charlie directly in the neck period. The damage would be tremendous, especially out the back. We need to continue to ask questions and work together. Not get mad at one another for bouncing theories and ideas off of one another. The SIDE SHO*TER FLASH does flash before the crack of the rifle sound which is consistent with the speed of sound, seeing the flash of a barrel before hearing it. Take notice to the direction the T-SHIRT pulls, this is interesting if Charlie was wearing a vest and a bullet fragment hit him in the neck, therefor causing no exit wound. Bullet entry wounds are usually small in the front and large out the back, especially with hollow point rounds because they flatten on impact. The neck is very fragile especially considering if a main artery is ruptured or torn from a gun shot. There is no way he was shot with a .30-06 round because there is no extreme damage on the neck and especially behind it with NO BULLET EXIT WOUND. It would of been catastrophic damage. The only thing that makes sense is if it was a fragment of the bullet round itself off the bullet proof vest. But what if he wasn't wearing one? We need to verify if Charlie was wearing a vest and what kind. This question should have been answered immediately, but it was never even asked. No way a .30-06 round hit Charlie's neck straight on PERIOD. Unless it was an exit wound from a completely other gun, sho*ter, or object, angle, etc. There are many more layers and theories but this needs to be said. Keep asking questions and keep digging. Would love to hear your thoughts and feed back. cc: ProjectConstitution

John Renoir on filming the train scenes in 'The Human Beast' (1938): "'The Human Beast' (1938) was a rather difficult film to shoot, since much of it takes place on locomotives. You can't shoot on a locomotive the way you can in a studio. There was so much to install. I must say that the state railway system was marvelous, they helped us, gave us some extraordinary assistants who took part in the film, who advised us, who prevented us from making mistakes. Because here again I insisted on exterior reality, I wanted very much for it to be respected. Believe me, there isn't a detail in this film that isn't exact. They gave us a track that wasn't being used during the time we were shooting the film. On this track we put a train, composed of a locomotive, our locomotive, our character, the Lison, the one we photographed. Behind it, we had a flatcar on which we had two generators to provide the electricity. We lit the locomotive exactly as if it were a character in a studio: instruments, lights, backlighting, everything you need. And of course all that was connected with wires, with straps, all that. It was all very complicated, because we were moving at sixty miles an hour! To reach sixty miles an hour in a hurry, we had another train push us from behind, so that we picked up speed quickly. We did it with two locomotives. We also had a few normal cars in which the actors could wash up, relax when they weren't shooting, reapply their makeup, have something to eat, and so on. It all was very organized. I must say that the photography was exciting and rather dangerous at times. My nephew, the cameraman, Claude Renoir, was almost knocked off once. He was in charge of a camera that was against the side of the locomotive. We had measured everything. The camera was fixed against the locomotive, but we had miscalculated, and the camera stuck out maybe one centimeter, and when we entered a tunnel - we were filming in a tunnel - the camera was knocked off and smashed. Luckily Claude saw what was coming just before it happened, he guessed it, and he flattened himself against the train and wasn't knocked off too. Luckily he's still alive." ('Renoir on Renoir', translated by Carol Volk, 1989)

Unique footage has emerged showing remote control of interceptor drones. The 190th Training Center of the SBS reportedly used a drone-interceptor to shoot down a Shahed UAV remotely, with the pilot located at a significant distance from the launch site. The system used was LITAVR, developed by FDrones. According to the company, an operator can control the interceptor from hundreds of kilometers away from the launch point. The F7 LITAVR is already a well-known and highly effective system. As a reminder, here are the technical details (this is all open-source information): Development of the system began in autumn 2024. It was successfully tested and officially adopted in summer 2025. Serial production and deliveries to the military started in autumn 2025. Maximum speed: 350 km/h Flight time: up to 15 minutes Equipped with two cameras: daytime and thermal imaging The officially stated tactical range is 36 km, though in practice it can reach up to 60 km and operate at altitudes of up to 9.5 km. The warhead (separately codified) weighs 500 g. Detonation can occur via kinetic impact, self-destruction upon contact with the target, or manual activation by the operator. The system uses inertial guidance without GPS and features automatic terminal guidance (“last mile” / target lock system). At present, it reportedly destroys hundreds of targets per week, including Shaheds, Gerberas, Molniyas, Orlans, Lancets, and others. What is fundamentally new? Until now, mobile air defense fire groups and frontline crews using interceptor drones required a qualified pilot on-site. It has now been successfully demonstrated that a different tactic is possible: pilots can operate from protected, remote locations. The only requirement is internet access at both the control center and the launch site. Ukraine’s defense sector continues to develop innovative solutions. 📹 Oleksii Kopytko/Facebook

Here’s The Uncut Version Of The CIA Chief Of Disguise Confirming They Use “Full Face Masks” To “Walk around as someone else” This is why Joe Biden needs both a drug test and a DNA test before the CNN Debate with Donald Trump “I was Chief of Disguise. The office I worked in was like the Q in James Bond. We were the Q for the CIA and the intelligence community. So there were different parts of it, whatever you needed. ‌ If you needed a bug, if you needed secret writing or a microdot or a concealment device or whatever you needed, you had to come to us and we'll put something together for you. Okay. What's the most memorable moment from being in disguise for you? Um, there were a number of them, but the one I mean, one that has to stand out, I went to the White House and I briefed George H. W. Bush, the president, at the time while I was wearing a full face mask. ‌ So we're sitting, like, this close together, and I'm telling him that I'm gonna show him the best disguise that we have. And he's looking for a bag, like, where where is it? I said, well, I'm wearing it, and I'm going to take it off. And I reached to start taking it off, and he said, stop. And he got up and he walked and he looked and he looked at it. ‌ He couldn't he didn't know it was a mask. He wasn't sure what I was wearing. He sat back down. He said, okay. So I took it off. ‌ And I was holding it up in the air so he could see it, my whole head. It had hair and a face and a neck. So you could walk around as someone else? Absolutely. And that would be the disguise. ‌ Absolutely.”

🚨🇮🇷Real Reason Pentagon Is Losing Sleep: Iranian Top Drones Tehran has developed a diverse fleet of strike drones designed for different combat roles. In addition to the famous Shaheds, here are the top-notch Iranian drones that keep Pentagon planners awake at night: 1️⃣ Mohajer-6 — The tactical backbone of Iran's proxy forces. This drone is a battlefield multiplier, equipped with electro-optical sensors and capable of firing the Almas anti-tank missile with pinpoint accuracy. It has been exported and used in conflicts from the Caucasus to the Red Sea, systematically destroying armored vehicles and fortifications; 2️⃣ Mohajer-10 — The next evolution in strike capability. It boasts triple the range (2,000 km) and double the flight endurance (24 hours) of its predecessor. Most critically, it can carry a 300 kg payload, including up to six smart bombs or cruise missiles, allowing it to saturate small sections of an air defense network; 3️⃣ Kaman-22 — Iran's "wide-body" combat drone. With a 3,000 km range, it can reach the furthest US outposts. It carries a 300 kg payload of air-to-ground missiles and glide bombs, designed to hit command centers and radar sites deep behind enemy lines, far from the front; 4️⃣ Karrar — The jet-powered speed demon. Unlike propeller drones, the Karrar races to its target at high subsonic speeds. It can be configured as a swarm leader or as a "mini-cruise missile" itself, carrying a 225 kg warhead to strike time-sensitive targets before defenses can react; 5️⃣ Fotros — The heavy hitter. With a 2,000 km range and a 30-hour flight time, it carries up to six missiles. Its large airframe allows for powerful, advanced communication relays, meaning it can guide other drones or missiles to their targets while staying outside the immediate kill zone; 6️⃣ Arash-2 — A loitering munition specifically designed to hunt radars. Once a US Patriot or THAAD battery turns on its radar, the Arash-2, with a range exceeding 1,000 km, can home in on that emission and destroy the system, effectively blinding the base's air defense; 7️⃣ Hadid-110 (Dalaho) — A jet-powered stealth loitering munition fresh from real combat. It hits 510 km/h with a radar cross-section below 0.02 square meters, evading F-15E and E-3C detection. With a 350 km range and a 30 kg warhead, it precisely targets Persian Gulf infrastructure, slipping past Western defenses silently; 8️⃣ Meraj-521 — A man-portable loitering munition that fits in a backpack. With a 5 km range and interchangeable 500g-1kg warheads, it silently strikes bunkers and armor via live video feed. Launched in swarms from ground or air, it dismantles fortified positions without exposing a single soldier to return fire.

🚨THE FASTEST ANIMAL ON EARTH ISN’T A CHEETAH. 🏎️💨 It’s a living missile that breathes like a jet engine and punches with the force of a bullet. Meet the PEREGRINE FALCON. 🦅 If you think you know "fast," think again. While a cheetah tops out at 70 mph, the Peregrine Falcon leaves it in the dust, clocking speeds of 242 MPH (389 km/h) during its hunting dive. Here is the engineering masterpiece behind nature’s ultimate fighter jet: 1. THE "STOOP" MANEUVER 📉When a Peregrine spots prey (often pigeons or ducks) from thousands of feet up, it doesn't just chase them; it drops. It tucks its wings into a tight teardrop shape to reduce drag to near zero. This gravity-powered dive is called a stoop. At terminal velocity, the bird becomes a projectile. It doesn't grab prey with its talons initially—it strikes them with a clenched "fist" of claws so hard that the impact alone is often enough to kill the prey instantly. 2. JET ENGINE NOSTRILS 👃At 200+ mph, rushing air would normally inflate a bird's lungs until they burst. To survive, the Peregrine evolved bony tubercles (baffles) inside its nostrils. These act exactly like the intake cones on a jet engine, slowing down and swirling the airflow so the bird can breathe safely while diving at Mach speeds. (Aerospace engineers literally studied this to design supersonic jets!) 3. BUILT-IN GOGGLES 🥽If you stuck your head out of a car at 240 mph, your eyes would water so badly you’d be blind. The Peregrine solves this with a third eyelid called a nictitating membrane. It works like a windshield wiper, clearing debris and spreading moisture without blocking vision, keeping their "target lock" clear during the dive. 4. THE TOMIAL TOOTH 🦷Unlike hawks or eagles that squeeze prey to death, Falcons are precision killers. They possess a specialized notch on their upper beak called a tomial tooth. If the initial high-speed strike doesn't finish the job, they use this "tooth" to sever the spinal cord of their prey with surgical precision. 5. G-FORCE IMMUNITY 🌀When pulling out of a dive, Peregrines can withstand up to 25 Gs. For context: F1 drivers experience 5-6 Gs. Fighter pilots pass out around 9 Gs. The Falcon takes 25 Gs and keeps flying. 6. A CONSERVATION MIRACLE 🌿In the 1970s, the Peregrine was nearly extinct in North America due to DDT poisoning (which thinned their eggshells). Thanks to bans on DDT and captive breeding programs, they are now one of conservation’s greatest success stories. BONUS FACT: Genetic studies show they are more closely related to Parrots 🦜 than they are to Hawks or Eagles! Next time you look up at a skyscraper, look closely. The fastest animal on the planet might be watching you from the ledge. #PeregrineFalcon #Nature #Science #Wildlife #DidYouKnow

i watched gemma 4 12b build something genuinely impressive today, and then loop itself to death right in front of me. the full run is in the video, sped up but completely uncut, watch it to the end and you will catch the exact moment it stops building and starts looping right in the middle of the work. the task was clean, build a single file gravity simulator, n-body physics, orbits, collisions, running locally on one 3090 through an agent. and for ten minutes it was a joy to watch. it reached for a symplectic integrator on its own, the correct one, the kind that keeps orbits stable instead of spiralling out. real gravity with softening, proper orbital velocities, momentum conserved on collision. the physics was right. the thing actually worked. then on the very last step, writing a few tests to prove its own code, it fell into a loop. not a crash, a loop. it started repeating itself and would not stop. ten more minutes, thirty four thousand tokens into a single answer, the same fragments over and over, until i killed it myself. so it's not that gemma can't code. it did the hard part beautifully. it cannot finish. it cannot hold a long task together without unravelling, and finishing is the entire job in agentic work. here's the part that stings. i run this exact task, same harness, same card, on the chinese open models, qwen especially, and i never see this. they build it, they test it, they stop. every single time. google has the raw capability, you can see it sitting right there in the code, and then the model loops itself to death on a task a 27b from alibaba finishes clean. open weights, apache 2.0, so much to love on paper. i just need it to know when to stop talking.
