@zbrdazdola69 I bought a used Tesla Model 3 Performance with only 35,000 km, battery died after 5000km. Tesla replaced it with a refurbished battery and that has been working fine for another 25,000 km, but not sure I would want to depend on it after warranty expires.

LVM ir karetejā politizetā valsts kapitālsabiedrība. Vajag mazākuma daļu palaist biržā, nodrošināt gan finansējumu, gan arī caurspīdīgu uzņēmuma pārvaldību, valstij paturot “zelta akciju”.

50M zaudējumi nozīmē, ka katrs nodokļu maksātājs samaksāja €50 par šo prieku. Arī pensionāri. 🤬

@valstsmezi ir milzīga barotava "shēmotājiem"!

Tas ir iespējams tikai tad, ja pie varas ir dēles un muļķi, kur pirmie ir piesūkušies pie barotavas, bet otrie nemaza nesaprot, ka barotava eksistē.

Oleksandr Yakovenko, the founder of TAF Industries, one of Ukraine's largest drone makers wrote a good response to @RheinmetallAG's Papperger's irritating statement. I used AI to translate it for you. It is worth reading in full.

"Dear Mr. Armin Papperger, CEO of Rheinmetall,

When you called Ukrainian drone manufacturers “Ukrainian housewives with 3D printers in their kitchens,” you demonstrated how deeply the European defense establishment still fails to understand the nature of modern warfare.

This is not about emоtions. This is about battlefield reality.

Here are the figures your industry refuses to acknowledge:

In 2025 alone, Ukrainian drones carried out 819,737 confirmed strikes. They accounted for 90% of all combat losses of the Russian army—more than all other types of weapons combined.

A single company, TAF Industries, produces up to 100,000 FPV drones per month. Over any given 90-day period, the products of my company alone have more confirmed hits than your entire fleet of equipment over its entire history of combat use across all conflicts. And most importantly—I built this company and achieved these results in two years, not fifty. Think about that.

Our drones achieve greater kinetic effect in three months than your flagship platforms have in half a century.

Why? Because the battlefield has changed, while your business model has not.

Russian electronic warfare has rendered GPS-guided Western munitions (Excalibur, GMLRS, etc.) almost ineffective.
Expensive and complex systems designed for wars with air superiority and conventional “peer-on-peer” conflict have become easy targets for drones costing $500–2,000 that attack them from above.
The cost-effectiveness ratio has been turned upside down: one 120mm Rheinmetall shell or one anti-tank missile costs more than a dozen of our drones—yet our drones still prevail.

This is not a “Lego game.” This is industrial Darwinism in real time. We iterate weekly. We lose factories to missile strikes and rebuild them within weeks. We print parts in basements and deploy 100,000 strike systems per month, while your engineers still require 3–5 years and hundreds of millions of euros to certify even minor upgrades.

The war in Ukraine is not a temporary anomaly. It is the first true drone-industrial war. And it has already proven that outdated European platforms—no matter how expensive or “serious”—are becoming increasingly irrelevant if they do not integrate the very technologies you are mocking.

So when you say “this is not innovation,” I hear something else: “We do not want to admit that the future is being written in Ukrainian workshops, not in Düsseldorf offices.”

The hashtag #MadeByHousewives is trending for a reason. Because these “housewives” destroy more enemy equipment every month than entire European armies do over full campaigns. And they do so while your industry continues to sell 20th-century solutions at 21st-century prices.

The invitation stands, Mr. Papperger. Stop laughing at the kitchen table. Come and learn how the war of tomorrow is actually fought. Because the next time someone asks, “Who needs tanks in the age of drones?”, the answer may be simpler than you think:

Those who still believe in 1979 will lose to those who are building in 2026.

With respect (but with facts),

Oleksandr Yakovenko

One of those “Ukrainian housewives”"

Lūk, elementāra matemātika.
Ja no Ukrainas piemēra jau zinām, ka arī iespējamam pretiniekam/ iem aiz 406 km garās robežas dronu karš ir ikdiena, tad Latvijai ir no brainer ieviest šo pašu formulu un būt gatavai to izmantot X stundā no pirmās minūtes.

Tāpēc ir vajadzīgi tūkstošiem dronu decentralizētas ražošanas spēju attīstība Latvijā un daži tūkstošu spējīgu dronu pilotu.

Dronu apmācības, dronu sacensības, dronu salikšanas pulciņi ir prasmes, kas jāsāk vidusskolā un tehnikumos. Arī e-gaming zāles un aprīkojums.

3D modelēšana, 3D printēšana - jau no 8ās klases. Turpat arī elektronikas platīšu lodēšana.

Valstij ir jāveido un jāfinansē kritiskā industriālā ražošanas bāze elektronikas industrijai. To kā apakškontraktoru miera laikā izmantos civilie uzņēmumi. Šim jāpiesaista ES fondu. Individuālu uzņēmumu vēlmei ar ar ES fondu atbalstu pirkt industriālas iekārtas - CNC, spiedliešanas iekārtas utt - jāpasaka stop. Tā vietā jāveicina uzņēmumus nākt pēc P&A grantiem jaunu produktu izstrādei.

"Bitcoin wastes energy!"

In Finland, Bitcoin mining is actually replacing oil and gas heating.

I investigated these secretive projects... and I was amazed.

Not only do miners warm these snowy towns but they also balance the energy grid 🤯

I don’t need a New Year’s resolution. It’s the year’s turn to be better.

[IN ∞/21M WE TRUST. @trendkraft]

Santa Claus from Latvia actually arrived right on time. This made the anticipation all the greater to finally see the NerdOCTaxe stand, made of powder-coated aluminum, in real life, which was created through the collaboration between PowerMining and me. The minimalist, functional, and elegant design is truly a feast for the eyes.

But that's not the topic here... The #OCTaxe, with its 2/2 oz manufacturing process, an additional 4-pin fan connector, and a square hole in the PCB (I haven't figured out what it's for yet), looks pretty cool. And there's certainly a lot more to discover here...

So it's back to the test phase for deepdrive. How does a NerdOctaxe fare in its first mass production run by one of the world's leading open hardware manufacturers?

We'll know more soon... but I can already say... if you don't have one, it's your own fault... even if you missed the Christmas discount... Here's a code for you and all your friends to save 10%. Grab it while the few units from the first batch are still available: https://t.co/VbuPA8quhK

CODE: OCaxe

More soon in the test report. Of course, it will take a while, as we want to examine everything from all angles and uncover its strengths and weaknesses – as always 😊
