Here’s a timelapse made from my RAWs if you want to see how this thing was moving

[apples @ApplesAndRust]

Packing all my animu for the move

[John Ʌ Konrad V @johnkonrad]

We had a good thing, Britain.

A really good thing.

You taught us this game. Mahan studied you. We just wrote bigger checks.

The deal was simple. We spend the trillions. Fight the hard wars. We even let you sit out Vietnam. And you? You hold the chokepoints you already own. You run Lloyd’s. Ships in the narrows, insurance on the hulls.

That’s all you had to do and we would back your interests with the strongest military and financial markets in the world.

That was the deal.

Now look at you.

You gave up Aden. Fine. You kept Diego Garcia so we could reach it with bombers. Now you’re giving that away too. To a Chinese client state.

You built Israel to guard Suez. Now your Foreign Secretary threatens to arrest their PM.

You built a base nearby to back it up. Iran hit your base in Cyprus. You didn’t have one warship in the Mediterranean. Spain got there first. Spain.

You gave up Hong Kong but backed Taiwan. Now you’re letting China build the largest embassy in Europe on top of London’s fiber-optic cables. We gave you Five Eyes. You gave Beijing a SIGINT platform in the heart of the City.

Gibraltar. Three hundred years. Actual sieges. Now the Spanish run your border checks.

You lost South Africa but kept the Falklands so we can overfly the Magellan Strait. Argentina could probably take that with rowboats today.

Your king kept ownership of the Canadian, Australian and New Zealand navies to fill the gaps. Those navies are now a laughing stock.

Your warships and bombers patrolled the GIUK gap. Now you don’t have enough but you also don’t want us buying Greenland. Fine. You do it. With what?

We gave London the @IMOHQ to regulate shipping, you backed the EU agenda to carbon tax every ship to build woke UN slush fund.

Iran closed Hormuz. In the ‘80s, 540 ships got hit. Lloyd’s never blinked. Because your navy was there. Now Lloyd’s cancels. Because it isn’t.

You scrapped your only amphibious ships. Sold them. To Brazil. You have more admirals than warships.

You built two light carriers but they keep springing leaks and you don’t have enough escort ships to support them.

The English Channel. Stopped Napoleon. Stopped Hitler. Now you can’t stop rubber dinghies.

You had one job.

Have the warships, diplomatic backbone and insurance to support shipping through the straits.

That’s it. That’s all we asked.

And you blew it. Chokepoint by chokepoint. Called it progress.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Now hundreds of ships are stuck in the Persian Gulf and the world is blaming us.

But that’s ok. All those solar panels you bought from China will keep you warm in that dreary weather I guess.

@Trigonom3tric Sweeeet! How do you feel about driving with a caravan compared to your old camper van and stuff?

[apples @ApplesAndRust]

The US is the only country in the world where these kind of things happen. Yet you have lethal weapons but do not use them to fix your country

My Tsukhime Trial Edition (月姫 体験版) finally arrived, one of only 50 copies in the world. Only to discover that US Customs had removed all the bubble wrap and physically destroyed the floppy disk. Will file a report but literally crying right now😭

[Oliver Jia (オリバー・ジア) @OliverJia1014]

I would be absolutely livid. I hope you get financially compensated, but this is a piece of rare gaming history destroyed.

Customs opening a package is one thing, but there was absolutely no reason for them to break the floppy disk to pieces. Horrible.

@RupertLowe10 What the fuck are you doing in the UK? Go out in groups armed with hunting rifles and knives and kill all the politicians who enabled it. Kill the police who attempt to stop you. The police who is not corrupt will join you.

Greentext summary of the article:
>be me, computer nerd
>looking into the company that checks your ID when you sign up for websites (Persona)
>stumble across a weird hidden web address: "openai-watchlistdb"
>why the hell does OpenAI have a watchlist?
>dig a little deeper and find the company's secret portal for government agencies
>some idiot programmer accidentally left the site's entire source code completely public
>didn't have to hack, didn't need a password, literally just clicked download

>start reading the code to see what they are actually doing with your data
>turns out, when you upload your ID and selfie to use ChatGPT, it does way more than just check your age
>an AI scans your face to see if you "look suspicious"
>it compares your selfie to a massive database of world leaders, politicians, and criminals
>it runs over 200 background checks on you in seconds, including tracking your crypto wallets
>saves your face in a biometric database for up to 3 years

>if the AI decides it doesn't like your face or background, it flags you
>the system has a built-in button for the feds to instantly file a "suspicious activity report" on you to financial police and intelligence agencies
>the exact same company taking your passport photo for a chatbot is running a massive surveillance machine for the government
