The 77th Infrantry Division would be the counterpoint to “older conscripts are harder to train and can’t keep up”.

It ain’t that easy to shoot down stealth aircraft.

Hell, it’s not easy to shoot down non-stealth aircraft

The pilot evaded all six missiles while not being able to deploy any chaff/flare countermeasures.

There’s oil there, Alaska isn’t going anywhere.

Would explain why the Air Force used PS3s, can’t be behind the tech curve!

Alaska has entered the chat

If you remember to do it after getting pissed off enough at it, sure 😀

No, it’s not.

What you’re talking about is UAC flipping out because you double clicked on something and it want’s admin privilege (the GUI equivalent of what bioemerl talked about).

I’m talking about exactly what bioemerl was: You open cmd window, try to run a command and it bitches that you need admin rights, as an admin. So, you have to go back, search for cmd, then select the option: Run as administrator.

Probably the fact that, even if you define the account as Admin in windows, you still need to select “Windows sudo” (run as Administrator) before it actually elevates privilege.

What he said. When the Patriot system started killing Khinzels, it was hit by debris. Russian trolls on the internet immediately claimed a “dead Patriot” for what turned out to be like an hours work when they realized the system was behaving oddly…

That being said, if they really did kill an S400, I guess that means it wasn’t an S400 that allegedly shot down a HIMARS rocket the other day.

Don’t think that value includes “items in the ship” (like aircraft) as part of the weight. This article seems to lay out what some of the differences are. Seems to boil down to “not evey Navy counts every canoe that they own”.

I suppose a few trillion dollars per year will do that though

Yep, American Un-Healthcare at its finest 😁

Depends on how you count “size”. US Navy is 4th in ship count, 1st in tonnage at 3.5m tons.

Russia is second at 800,000 tons

China is third at 700,000 tons

Japan is fourth at 400,000 tons

Please show me where any country is “shitting themselves over Russia” after the master stroke in self destruction Russia has displayed in Ukraine?

How did they justify this statement? A press release from Putin.

Effectively, yes.

The consortium just linked to the original story from Indian Punchline (the author’s personal blog) where the author quoted the statement from a TASS article.

It’s not hard hitting, factual news. It’s an OpEd piece from a blogger.

If we wrapped Robert Parry’s corpse with copper wire and surrounded his casket with magnets, we could probably power a small city with the electricity from him turning over in his grave at how far Consortium News has fallen in publishing articles like this.

If you set up hardware encryption, be sure to change the master password and set the security level to maximum.

Be aware, this password is different than the Physical Secure ID (PSID) printed on the front of the disk. PSIDs are used when the release to reset command doesn’t work, typically due to key issues, and the drive gets “locked”.

You use the PSID to run a revert to factory defaults command, unlocking the drive. Since this triggers the drive to release its’ key, the drive is considered “cryptographically erased” when you do this.

If you revert the drive, data on it is unrecoverable.

If you’re going to revert a drive, I suggest using a QR Code reader to get the PSID off the drive. Some venders are sadists with the font they choose making it so much fun to figure out if it’s a 1, l i I I O or 0…

It sounds like the article is an update to the age old performance issue discussions between hardware and software RAID solutions.

If you use a software solution for anything where there’s a dedicated hardware solution, the software solution is always slower due to CPU overhead.

Article recommendation boils down to: If you’re going to use encryption, and you want your full disk speed, use a hardware encryption solution. In their test their hardware supported OPAL.

No, they don’t.

SSDs, unless you buy a specifically encryption supported drive, are not encrypted. If it doesn’t indicate SED, SED non-FIPS or a FIPS certification level, the drive doesn’t have an encryption circuit.

Most of SSD already has good encryption methods

Unless you purchase a SED-non FIPS or FIPS SSD, no, they don’t

and an easy way to safely wipe data without re-writing each byte.

ATA Secure Erase is a god send for SSD.

You’re correct, it was the truck
