    You think a relative technological breakthrough is less likely than the guy who is providing Ukraine with Starlink for free is at the same time telling the Russian how to jam it? So he would make sooner or later public a vulnerability in his own technology (which he sells)? Doesn’t male any sense. It’s easy and satisfying to think that all evil people plan together evil things all the time, but more often than not the answer is simpler than a cospiracy theory based on feelings.

      Musk had to have his arm twisted to provide Starlink to Ukraine, and actually tried to shut down their use in the past. Further, jamming satellites is not a mysterious breakthrough vulnerability, its tech thats older than most of the people here.

            I’ve never tried, our local dairy industry tends not to adulterate its products, and chocolate milk tends to be made instead with cheap shelf-stable UHT rubbish.

            Are you avoiding my question?

                That’s a yes then. Would you like if I explained the relevance of the question, perhaps with a comparative example that doesn’t trigger your automated defense of your, uh, anti-imperialist freedom fighters? Do you think he would be calling the Irish incapable of advanced technology if he noticed that our airforce consists of like 2 Pilatus PC-9s?

                    That very much depends why I took them off, with a complicating factor of temperature. Shower - pants. Bedroom activities - shirt. Warm - shirt. Cold - pants. The relationship between these isn’t linear either.

                    Have you always been a coward about defending your convictions or was it a learned behaviour because of repeated rejections?
