except irgc and friends, nobody's sticking out their neck for theocracy and ayatollah, definitely not majority of iranian population (survey from 2024, and this is before irgc did 4 srebrenicas), and i'm not even sure about allegiances of regular military (artesh, not irgc. i heard that irgc disarmed artesh just before january crackdown, not very sure about it). let alone handful of pilots and marine officers that would conduct bombardment

have you? vietnam was backed by soviet union and china when these states were at peak performance, and north vietnamese government was genuinely popular. iran today is not it, who's gonna stand up for them, fucking north korea? mullah's regime doesn't seem to be popular either https://gamaan.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/GAMAAN-Iran-Religion-Survey-2020-English.pdf also iranian air defences were already shown to be unable of touching american aircraft last year, and nobody's talking about ground invasion
it's a type of heat engine. heat engines require temperature difference to work, and the lower it becomes, the less energy is there in the first place and a very fundamental limitation, that is carnot cycle efficiency, goes down very quickly. in practice, all heat exchangers have some thermal resistance, and the lower temperature gradient you can afford to use up on this, the bigger heat exchanger becomes, making low grade heat powerplants extremely big and expensive on top of barely generating any electricity
i don't think there's a lot of energy to be squeezed from daily variations in air temperature vs lake temperature, you'd be better off just by using solar panels on the same area
take any aluminum can, cut it open, cut a plate fitting in your wallet, insert it there so that it sits on external surface if your walket, done, that's your yeehaw rfid blocking sleeve, extra mass 1g
if you want to scan bus pass you can put that card on external side of it
They could state it's Saudi right in the title
the waste heat comes from cryogenics system that keeps all of this helium at below 3K. turns out you need to spend a lot of energy to cool down things to temperatures this low
it's easier for dear leader to blame americans for any and all problems (not an exaggeration, first example i found https://www.upi.com/Top_News/Special/2009/11/02/Irans-IRGC-blames-US-for-problems/32571257206055/ it was stated on iranian state media verbatim recently, i'll add it when i find it) than to accept responsibility for their oppression, corruption and inefficient governance.
yeah mate nixon personally descended from heli to brainwash khomeini into making basij a thing. every irgc grifter is a mossad agent actually. i bet that cia shat their pants too
Fuck this clickbait title. It's no secret that no tears will be shed in Riyadh if something would happen to islamic republic leadership, and Saudis made this known recently https://www.axios.com/2026/01/31/saudi-us-strike-iran-kbs-trump
if you believed that "no saudi land or airspace will be used to attack Iran" was genuine i have a brigde to sell you
if there was a way of faking presence of lower display, then you have free tv and extra screen
this is some idiocracy level shit tho
there's nothing wrong with 3rd party batteries, if it's worn down so badly that it no longer does the thing that it is supposed to then replace it, idk why it's a question. I replace mine when they're at 60% of original capacity
right, let's see... they propped up unpopular (some 70% iranians oppose islamic republic rule, source), authoritarian, religious minority rule (only 32% iranians reported to be shia in 2020 survey, so before 2022 protests, it might be even less today), that was in a constant state of crisis and when president nho dinh diem got couped and killed, people danced on the streets (iranians burned down mosques and statue of soleimani during january protests). yeah, maybe iran is like vietnam after all, to be more specific like south vietnam during buddhist crisis
i don't think that regular iranian population, that protested every year in almost decade and these protests were all met with crackdowns, mostly deadly, would like to see islamic republic rule to continue. neither i have heard anything about ground invasion, so all you've got out there is couple of pilots (officers) in the air and some more on ships
