This report is probably true. However, this desperate act by the US will not intimidate Iran & will not affect our relations with our great friend & ally Russia, & we will continue to support them in any way we can. They helped us when nobody else did, time to return the favor. pic.twitter.com/wrLbh7Uwa9

It's quite simple. We all declare ourselves transgender now and no matter what discipline we fail in, we are simply the best then.
There is no point in fighting nonsense in direct confrontation, only kung fu will help there.

The main reason for my wish to change this society is that so many human skills have no chance to come to fruition. Instead they are used in a really sick way so that people are maintaining their own suffering from wars, hunger and illness. But it can not be changed "top-down", only in some kind of "grassroots revolution" or better "evolution" where more and more people work together to get rid of TPTB (whoever that is).
No need for a "big event" but development. One of my ideas to reach it: Don't play "their" games - don't use "their" rules - don't think in the box of "their" paradigms.
It's more "refuse" than "resist" - without too much ideology. You don't need to know much about "what's going on behind the curtains", it's mainly to create your own rules together with like-minded people.
That is what I mean with "I'm on the side of the people".

Huawei EUV Scanner Patent Suggests Sub-7nm Chips for China - By Anton Shilov published December 23, 2022
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/huawe-euv-scanner
SMIC Mass Produces 14nm Nodes, Advances To 5nm, 7nm - By Anton Shilov last updated September 16, 2022
Chinese state media on Thursday said that Semiconductor Manufacturing International Co. had initiated mass production of chips on its 14nm-class fabrication process at its Fab SN1 near Shanghai, China, citing a local official. Perhaps more importantly, the report also claimed that despite being unable to procure advanced chip production equipment, the company is proceeding with its 7nm and 5nm-class nodes. "With the completion of Shanghai's industry cluster for the 14nm chips, more advanced projects in the 7nm and 5nm processes will be accelerated," said Chen Jia, a research fellow on strategy, in a conversation with state-owned Global Times
14nm Is Here, So Is N+1 SMIC has been talking about its N+1 fabrication technology - loosely considered the company's 7nm-class node — since early 2020 and described it as a low-cost alternative to TSMC's N7 node that relies on deep ultraviolet (DUV) lithography tools. N+1 aims to reduce power consumption by 57%, increase performance by 20%, and reduce the logic area by up to 55% – 63% (for select structures) compared to a similar chip implemented using SMIC's 14nm.
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/smic-mass-produces-14nm-nodes-advances-to-5nm-7nm
According to a report from Taiwanese media outlet UDN, Huawei has filed a patent on extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography equipment in China. Currently, actual working EUV technology is ASML's realm to rule, though its predecessor technology, which involves deep ultraviolet (DUV), has some competition.
EUV is incredibly important: It enables the manufacture of chips with transistors (the tiny switches in a chip that handle the computing process in a computer) just a few nanometers in size. Chips designed at this microscopic level are what power our smartphones and high-performance computing like AI in data centers. Decades of research and a handful of key acquisitions have put ASML many years in the lead when it comes to EUV technology know-how.
...
However, filing a patent -- especially a patent solely for use in China -- is not the same thing as actually building a working piece of equipment. It took ASML many years to complete a working EUV prototype, and many more years after that to actually commercialize its most advanced machines. If the patent is granted, Huawei merely possesses a legal document. It will still need to build its EUV machine. Which, mind you, requires many thousands of critical and specialized parts, some of which are made in the U.S., where there are restrictions on exports of advanced chipmaking technology to China........ Other recent news of China's chip-making progress include a report that China achieved 7nm more quickly than expected (and is working on 5nm), and that China will release a domestic chip with performance allegedly comparable to Ryzen 5000 / 11th-Gen Intel in 2023.
Patent filings reveal that Huawei has made advances in a crucial method of chip manufacture, raising the prospect that the company could eventually start making some of the smallest and most powerful microchips by itself. The highly specialised technique has only ever been cracked by Netherlands-based company ASML. A €208bn business, ASML’s chipmaking secrets are jealously guarded by both the company and the West. Dutch foreign trade minister Liesje Schreinemacher told the country’s parliament in November that ASML’s chip technology was a jewel in the country’s crown to be protected. EUV machines each cost between $150m and $300m and are about the size of a London bus. Factories typically need between 9 and 18 machines, driving the cost of new chip plants well into the billions. ASML’s microchip manufacturing machines are used by world-leading chipmakers such as Intel, Samsung and Taiwanese chip giant TSMC. In January 2022, Intel ordered five EUV machines to help fit out a new chipmaking factory. https://hardforum.com/threads/chinas-huawei-files-new-euv-lithography-patent-moving-forward-with-its-drive-to-semiconductor-self-sufficiency.2024509/
Chinese are really close to same level of chip technology as "west". and they are still accelerating. ASML is finished. if Chinese figure out the technology (and even surpass it) china will sell to rusia and china..and probably india and iran...big market. and "western" market is getting smaller and smaller. it is not a matter if..it is a matter of when.

The Washington Post writes that the US promise to deliver Abrams tanks to Ukraine was given only to Scholz to deliver his leopards to Kiev.
At the same time, the article openly notes that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken formulated this idea "for long-term needs", that is, delivery may be delayed for years.
The United States will postpone the delivery of its tanks until the last minute. This is pure business and nothing more.
If the German leopards start to burn in Ukraine, their market price will fall, and Abrams will appear on the market as the only and undisputed option for Europe and even for the whole world. Accordingly, orders for tanks will go to America.
