Would not expansion of submarine fleet be a much safer alternative? Or sell some subs to Taiwan, I know US helped brocker sole deal to help them build indigenous boats with MHI help, but this might take too long

I think smart trainer with Zwift + classes would be a perfect combo. Trying not to get dropped is damn fun. Personally I need outside time be it running or riding a bike. And I don’t care to train at home for improving my performance. Still

Rebuilding is not a problem. It is the birth rate that is a problem. Tokyo is vacuuming everyone from countryside. You get some refugees in their 30s moving back but it is a trickle. This fund is a typical Japanese corporate bullshit. You c

Which is irrelevant when you do not have lift capacity, landing assets or any ability to actually supply the landing force. They could MAYBE land a brigade(which they could not supply for any length of time), said brigade would get squashed

Once the pandemic is over and if still WFH, get a spot at a coworking space. This is what I been doing for years. Alternatively find a coffee shop, ride there for your morning fix of caffeine.

Ah yes short victorious war. Because taking over an island is so easy. Chinese economy is also completely dependent on imports. US does not need sail its carriers to Taiwan, it needs to park half a dozen attack subs on Chinese trade routes.

Original step to help with manufacturing of the subs came when US brokered a deal with MHI 3 years ago. The somehow magically "retired" MHI engineers appeared in Taiwan to help in development US does not have expertise to make mod

There is a massive business opportunity here. Funny enough Gab is probably best positioned to take advantage of it. It has been deplatformed years ago and survived by basically building whole stack from scratch. There were many many many mi

USSR controlled half of Europe and had enough ground forces on hand to bust through Germany and be in France in a week(without nukes being involved). PRC is nowhere close. It is a threat to Japan, India, Russia, Vietnam etc to US and Europe

Remember US newspapers running cover for Communists exterminating millions? Not much changed, lure of the totalitarian regime with nice commie tint that can tell plebs what to do is still strong.

Because of the publish something that does not say Orange Man Bad they will loose a bunch of their subscribers. Getting subscribers is much harder then loosing them. Let’s say they covered Hunter Biden scandal. How much would that cost them

This is why teachers unions do not want you to have a choice where you send your kid. Because no sane adult would send a kid to a school that did this.

I think there is definitely something here. I never get sick in summer, spring and rarely fall. I run and bike with exposed skin quite a bit. In winter I get sick all the time :( I think this winter I will run an experiment on myself.
