Globus - The Soviet Mechanical "Space GPS"
Before digital computers took over, Soviet spacecraft used something extraordinary: a fully mechanical navigation computer called Globus.
Installed in missions like Vostok and Soyuz, this device used a system of gears, cams, and rotating mechanisms to calculate the spacecraft's position in real time. As the capsule orbited Earth, Globus would continuously update-showing where the crew was above the planet.
No screens. No software.
Just pure engineering.
By factoring in orbital motion, Earth's rotation, and time, the system could accurately track ground position and even help determine reentry timing and landing zones.
It was reliable, self-contained, and didn't depend on external signals-making it perfect for the early space age.
A reminder that long before digital navigation... spaceflight was powered by clockwork precision.
Japanese man discovers White people are a minority in London.
"White people are at 36.8%? I thought there would be more. If this happened to the Japanese in Tokyo, it would be terrible. I’d be worried about Japan if this happened to us.”
“No vamos a darle ninguna tregua a los violentos”, enfatizó el alcalde @Renzo_Reggiardo
El burgomaestre reafirmó su posición de mantener el principio de autoridad en la ciudad y anunció que no se permitirá ningún tipo de desborde social o actos violentos vinculados a eventuales movilizaciones.
“El principio de autoridad es una medida que yo he implementado desde que asumí funciones. No vamos a dar tregua a la criminalidad o a aquello que genere violencia, que genere alteración del orden normal de nuestra ciudad. Si quieren protestar háganlo fuera del centro y si lo hacen en el centro, aténganse a las consecuencias. Los estamos vigilando”, sostuvo.

Las diferentes amenazas que he recibido tras la aprobación del informe sobre el acuerdo con Odebrecht no me harán retroceder. Seguiremos cumpliendo nuestro deber de fiscalización con firmeza y sin miedo. El Perú merece justicia, transparencia y autoridades que no cedan ante las presiones.
Yo, this is actually disgusting.
Look at this apartment in Kodaira City, Tokyo — completely covered in garbage, overflowing trash bags, and filth everywhere.
This is what happens when large numbers of foreigners with completely different hygiene standards and rule awareness move into Japanese residential areas.
I’m just an ordinary Japanese citizen.
Multiple surveys of Japanese landlords and property managers consistently show the same thing:
- “Garbage disposal rule violations” is one of the top 2 most common complaints with foreign tenants (alongside noise).
- Many report repeated issues with improper sorting, wrong-day dumping, and trash being left to rot.
It’s not “a few bad apples.”
It’s a recurring pattern caused by huge cultural gaps in cleanliness and public manners.
We Japanese have built clean, orderly neighborhoods over generations.
Yet in the name of “multicultural coexistence,” our daily lives are being ruined by this kind of mess.
Japan must stop sacrificing the quality of life of its own citizens.
We have every right to demand that people who live here follow Japanese rules — or go back to where they came from.
Bro, I can’t believe this.
NHK’s “Close-up Gendai” just aired a story about Chinese parents who can’t speak Japanese at all planning to move to Japan with their child.
The father openly says on camera:
“I can’t speak Japanese, but I’m taking my son to Japan anyway. I’m going all in for my child.”
Meanwhile, the number of Chinese moving to Japan has surged — about 50,000 more in just one year. Many arrive without knowing the language, and “little China towns” where people live entirely in Chinese are forming inside Japan.
We’re watching a massive influx of people who have zero intention of learning Japanese or integrating into Japanese society… and Japanese taxpayers are expected to foot the bill for their new life here.
This isn’t “diversity.”
This is demographic replacement happening in real time.
Japanese people are struggling with low birth rates, high costs, and a shrinking population.
Yet the government and media treat the arrival of non-Japanese speakers as something positive.
Does this make any sense?
Japan must put Japanese citizens first.
No more welcoming large numbers of people who don’t want to become part of Japan.
Mientras las mesas 900 decidan las elecciones presidenciales no habrá verdadera legitimidad en los resultados, afectando gravemente cada quinquenio gubernamental.
🇯🇵 A group of Chinese tourists showed up at Watatsumi Shrine in Tsushima and decided to throw stones at it.
Due to their actions, everyone except worshippers were banned from entering for a while.
This type of thing should get you permanently banned from entering Japan.
#IEP revela que el 45% de los peruanos cree que hubo fraude y el 32% que existieron irregularidades que afectaron los resultados presidenciales. Aun así, desde el #JNE y la #ONPE prefirieron insultar la inteligencia de la mayoría de peruanos antes que responder con transparencia.
Lo que pasa en Perú es sencillamente DEMENCIAL.
Te lo explico en pocas líneas.
El 12 de abril se celebraron elecciones presidenciales. En Lima, donde arrasa el candidato de derecha, una enorme cantidad de mesas electorales abrieron muy tarde. La Contraloría acaba de confirmar que esto vulneró el derecho al voto de más de 1 millón de limeños.
El resultado de las elecciones dejó al candidato de derecha (López Aliaga) fuera de la segunda vuelta por sólo 20mil votos. Siendo por mucho el ganador en Lima, si hubieran podido votar el millón de limeños a los que CAGARON, el candidato hubiera pasado cómodamente a segunda vuelta.
Acá viene lo más alevoso: la alcaldía de Lima interpuso recursos judiciales ante el Tribunal Constitucional y el Poder Judicial, para que llamen a elecciones complementarias para ese millón de ciudadanos a los que se les violaron sus derechos. Pero los jueces se hacen los distraídos: tratan de ganar tiempo para que se celebre de todos modos la segunda vuelta, y el objeto del reclamo caiga en abstracto.
Imagínense ustedes, jueces haciéndose los dormidos ante un FRAUDE que la propia Contraloría (órgano máximo de control del Estado peruano) acaba de confirmar.
Esto es demencial. Téngase presente: si los jueces no se expiden, habrán sido copartícipes del derrumbamiento del sistema democrático en Perú.
Nunca mas convenios sin cláusulas anti-corrupción! Cuidado con el lobby de un grupo de congresistas comprometidos con la corrupción de ODEBRECHT y demás cómplices..!
La Contraloría concluye en que hubo 2’450,000 limeños cuyos votos fueron despreciados por la #ONPE afectando la apertura de sus mesas de votación.
Eso no puede llamarse “irregularidades”, eso merece llamarse FRAUDE ELECTORAL

🚨GERMANY WANTS TO WITHDRAW FROM THE 🇪🇺 EUROPEAN UNION!
🇩🇪 Germany’s RIGHT-WING party (AfD), the Alternative for Germany, is rapidly gaining popularity across the nation and wants to LEAVE the European Union if it secures a victory in the upcoming election.
🇵🇪 Keiko Fujimori, who is likely to become Peru's next president, is campaigning on a conservative platform that includes:
❌Expelling all migrants
❌Stopping crime
❌Ending socialism
✅Strengthening ties with the civilized world
I really hope she wins.
