Ukrainian AA can't reach these bombers because these were used as launching platforms for long range missiles over Caspian, relocating SAM sites does nothing. Also it's likely that what was hit were good planes, some of which were even fitted with Kh-101 cruise missiles at the time of attack, and part of what is left are planes under maintenance. It could be so that only third or less of long range bombers are usable now, which would most obviously increase wear on them in immediate future

this was before we figured out that you can use stranded aluminum wire and it's fine this way

that, or copper clad aluminum

only residential wiring uses copper, everything from 350kV down to 400V lines is aluminum, and even in houses aluminum can be used too

old power supplies used transformers, which when not loaded behave like inductors, and this causes reactive current to flow. not a problem for the last 15+ years because everything uses switching mode power supplies now

it's not solved, it's just companies saying that they think it will be solved in the future

none of that shit works and won't work for a good minute, cryonics is rapture for nerds that take scifi way too seriously

what we already know tho is that because there's one payment to store meat popsicle effectively forever and this shit is ran by true believer techbros, it tends to run out of money pretty regularly. that means they run out of liquid nitrogen and meat popsicles thaw, and this already happened more than once
