Opinions differ

You’ll always have that in any field. I think that is why politics and diplomacy were invented (but I could be wrong), so I saw the headlines from people on YouTube on how Disclosure day is such a failure. I do not share that opinion that movie is absolutely brilliant, it is not as perfect as Project Hail Mary, but it ranks with the best 10 movies made in the last quarter century. I also believe that Courtney Grace is due the Oscar as a female in a supporting role. She acted with such emotions, it is absolutely breathtaking. She might only be in the movie the last 15 minutes, but she made her role impactful, she was that good. I reckon that Ryan Gosling gets best actor and the special effects team for PHM will get one too. Still, Disclosure day is about changes and the chase scenes in the beginning falls quiet against the end scenes in the studio and how all other channels pick it all up, it is mesmerizing to see. Steven ‘Jaws’ Spielberg outdid himself. I cannot tell if it is the best movie Steven Spielberg ever made he made too many over the last half a century and honestly I might not have seen them all. I know I never saw the Fabelmans (due to other influences not related to cinema) and I missed a few more. It was the start of a thought train, because it set things in motion. Not the opinion of others, they are entitled to those, whether I agree or not. You see, some of you might remember Beyond Two souls with Elliot Page and Willem Dafoe. The game was a great experience, now add Life is strange which gets us a time reset ability. Now consider Disclosure day, or better still Wardex. How they have been doing that for decades and that could make a massive level, almost in the trend of Guns of the Patriot (same kind of levels). Still they started small, so getting to ‘dissuade’ people from getting anywhere until you get the government attention and resources. But the game is not linear, you get to get to the end station on all levels with a score and with results. Now the setting changes and whilst the game is in the last level and you get a ‘disclosure’ like end result, but that ending only goes to what they got a hold of and that is decided throughout the game and a total victory is that the newscast is thrown out, the biggest loss is the newscast you saw and global attention.

The two games Beyond two souls and Life is strange are mere examples of the setting and I reckon a game like this has never been made before (as far as I know) and even I wonder if it could be done. You see, gaming is like any border setting. It is about moving the edge of that terrain forward. Through that you get better writing, better scenery and a better experience. So would it work? And it can be a unique setting, I am merely using the stage of Disclosure day as an example. The same could be done in several ways by pushing the great inventors of time making Gothenburg invent printing technology, making others make their contributions but you keep out of sight in all that. Archimedes, James Watt and a few more and that makes the game an educational tool. See how they came to the inventions that shaped our world. The issue is that we all have that now, but they did not, so what makes it work? See and get them to complete the design. It makes for a different puzzle, one you need to think your way through and there are hundreds of these examples and optionally expansions to such a game with an educational edge. So some see Hedy Lamarr as an actress (she was that too) But she set the groundwork for “she also co-invented a radio guidance system during World War II.” But in this age people seemingly have it all. The only way to teach them to surpass the boundaries of what they cannot see is to introduce the boundaries people had from the 2nd century BC onward. By teaching that, we might also create a much better engineer. It was Microsoft that created libraries of programming and it made sense when they did that, but now a 45KB app has 250KB attached junk and becomes an open wound of zero day settings. I do not blame Microsoft here, it made sense when they did this, but too many systems have devices and they are all filled with junk parts. And these junk parts could interact when there was no reason to do so. As such we need a much better trait to exploit and educations gaming might be a solution (there might be other solutions too), it is merely an idea I am considering, it is after all how I got to create several kinds of IP, out in the open and less so, but they are all original and I have placed several online so they become freeware. I wonder what more I can come up with at the end of my life.

Have a great day and if you haven’t done so yet, watch Disclosure day and Project Hail Mary. They are worth your time and great movies.

First the giggles, then the howls

Yup, it all started late last night when I was alerted to an article (at https://www.defenseone.com/ideas/2024/01/how-china-winning-middle-east/393483/) where we see ‘How China is winning the Middle East’. It is here that we are given “China is working to present itself as a responsible alternative to the U.S. in the Middle East, just as many are questioning Washington’s long-term commitment to the region”, the article was originally from January 19th 2024. Now consider that on September 9th 2021 I wrote ‘Lemon of the Century’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2021/09/09/lemon-of-the-century/), so I mentioned that danger over 2 years ago and it started happening a year later (alas, not my involvement) I initially wrote “I made a case to sell (as a corporate individual) to sell the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia either the British BAE Typhoon, or the somewhat better match the Chinese Chengdu J-20. Now, this is not on principles, but the US making Saudi embargo after embargo, all whilst it is mere puppet play and there was no direct need to stop the sales, especially as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was under direct attack by Houthi forces directly sponsored from Iran and the people were eager to ignore that fact. So there I was taking a stab at a 3.75% sales commission, and in light of a $11,000,000,000 sales ticket could bank me $412,500,000 over a few years. Now, I know, am I greed driven? Nope! But I am not walking away from such a massive mealticket!” As such it took defense one well over two years to see the dangers I saw clearly coming then. How laughable is that? What are these American three letter organisations doing? This wasn’t a surprise, this was clearly in view.

So now we see “China’s narrative in this effort is one of not just opportunity for Middle Eastern states, but constant subtle or overt comparison between U.S. and Chinese goals in the region.” Say what? This was in clear view and I made several mentions in the last two years alone. So whilst you giggle on that consider that I am now calling the match Me (myself and I) versus DARPA a win with the final score being 6-0. I just realised that around three years ago I designed a stealth solution to sink the Iranian fleet (cost around $750K per vessel) yet I suddenly remembered that solution (I keep on designing other stuff) and the principles of Archimedes apply globally, as such they should have no problem with Russian vessels either. Not bad for a person that some see as a loser (well they do), but in the end it is creativity that wins innovation, it wins IP on a much larger scale and in support of that it could win a war too. If you doubt that, consider that “the basic idea of radar had its origins in the classical experiments on electromagnetic radiation conducted by German physicist Heinrich Hertz during the late 1880s.” So the Germans did not see the applications and they could have had an entire war advantage half a century long. In the end it was Watson Watt, Wilkins, and Bowen that turned it into something functional and that gave them the edge somewhere between 1930 and 1940. The application of my solutions are reimagined solutions of something that was out in the field. OK, my idea to melt down nuclear reactors came from a snow globe, so that is one that is all mine.

When you consider that and the fact that I am calling a 6 point sore on DARPA you might howl with laughter and that is fine. But consider that I kept a lot on my blog. There is a timeline and DARPA has nothing to put against that and now we see that Defense One makes mention of a ‘danger’ all whilst I made clear mention of that well over two years ago. That is what it means to be asleep at the wheel. And I am not innocent of that either. You see I made mention of an idea some time ago and I just realised that it could be applied to the series Engonos (season 2 or 3) but I forgot about the idea (another reason to keep a blog). Now as it resurfaced in my mind I also realise that as I am concentrating on another script (How to assassinate a politician for Al Saudiya) that I am new to that. As such all writers (not just me) seem to think in active terms. There are four parts in any script (no technical reference), they are active, reactive and both can be endotherm or exotherm. Implying that from within or from outside sources. That was the part that as a storywriter you take notice on, but in writing a script that setting goes different. As such I suddenly remembered Ate, daughter of Eris and suddenly other ideas come flowing in, OK, some based on ideas my mind had created, but I never considered it as the entire setting of Engonos was not on my mind. That came well over a year later.

You might wonder what one has to do with the other. Well, creativity goes in several directions and it was creativity in data that gave me the view of China becoming a much larger provider of Middle Eastern defence structures. It seems that Defense One only caught on a week ago. Now, that doesn’t make me ‘more’ correct, but when you see the settings how it was THEN, most people with BI insights would get similar conclusions. I did my ships engineering in the 70’s. Those principles gave me the idea for the stealth solution I designed decades later. Education matters, it might not matter now, but it allows the creative mind to see additional solutions, solutions that do not even exist when the thoughts were created. That is true innovation and that leads to larger advantages in any field. That is what some fat cats forgot about and as the stations are brought to bear they will all cry that it was unfair, but the reality was that they slept on. Only 20 hours ago the Business Standard treated us to ‘The online ad cookie is crumbling as Google Chrome secures privacy’ whilst another source gives us “Advertisers aren’t willing to pay as much for random internet users, so every time the page loads for a cookie-less Chrome user, it’s bringing in less money than it might have before.” The problem with these trains of thoughts was that I saw the announcement AT Google well before the first Covid shutdown, so it has been a while, so these people never prepared. How silly is that? Howlingly laughing silly. And that is where we see the stage. We giggle on some news, we howl at news and clams and we lose our shit laughing when we see that the non prepared mind should have known better and they all connect. Because change forces us to become creative, in two cases that wasn’t done. So whilst some may sneer and laugh at my claims, I put my claims out in the open on a blog and I did it 2 years earlier. The snow globe solution is there too, not sure how much I put online on the stealth vessel sinking solution (oh, SVSS sounds cool) but there you have it, we cannot anticipate everything. But I do like the idea that my idea could be applied to Russian vessels as well, as such, DARPA eat your heart out.

Have a lovely Monday. Tuesday started just now here.

Deployment Evolution

We all evolve what we make, what we consider and what we design, it is a natural act. There are no hidden flaws or weaknesses. We evolve what we see, what we can. It is in our nature. So, two years go I came up with two ideas, the first was to meltdown an Iranian nuclear reactor in a new novel way, and the second one was to take care of the Iranian navy (America was doing efff all). And would you believe it, these two ideas should work on Russian hardware too. Yet today a thought occurred to me. I am not aware if it is true, but the Russian deploy water microphones to make sure no one gets the drop on their strategic locations. As I was thinking that, I remembered something from my youth. In 1775 David Bushnell designed a one man submarine. I saw the blueprints, they were awesome. He came up with the idea, the concept and the design almost a century before Jules Verne came up with 20,000 leagues under the sea. He was that much of an innovator. So now we have better equipment and we could make a carbon fibre solution. Yet what about those microphones? It seems to me that these microphones cannot detect chemical propulsion. People are so about machines, fossil fuels and nuclear rods that they forget that chemical propulsion comes from the 19th century. I would call that vessel the USS Antoine Lavoisier, credit where credit is due and the French had their great moments.

In addition, when we deploy a silicone hose that at deployment is coated with the same chemicals a clamp has to attach itself to anything and the hose is filled with two elements. The first is thermite. The second is a wire with attached balls and we deploy it over the length (or a large enough length) of any boat or submarine and we end the connection with a chemical fuse no one would be the wiser. And the nice thing is that if that activation is nicely timed, we do not merely take out the vessel, we take out the port as it is blocked for a considerable length of time. The second one was already designed, the first part was new. I hd initially a drone in mind, but in this way there is no signal, no nothing. Merely silence and a suddenly sinking craft. The balls are no more than in inch. You see, the explosion need not be big, merely enough to create small gaps in the inner hull, the outer hull has a strip missing bigger than the titanic, as such the outer hull is now filling with water changing the rules of Archimedes on that vessel, the blasts will create enough small holes so that the inner hull starts filling too and even if the alarms sound, the two dozen small gaps is flooding in water and by the time the crew is alert the damage is too far gone and Archimedes waves at the vessel no longer able to remain afloat, and out next generation turtle (optionally looking very different) moves way like Don Juan silently into the night avoiding a livid husband.

Whatever will I come up next. Perhaps a new way to deploy EMP drones. This should keep the MIG’s in their stables. So in three small mental exercises (two at present) I took care of Russian reactors, The Navy and soon the airforce. No need to do anything about the Russian army. The Ukrainians are slapping that near to death horse. So what has DARPA been up to lately?

I earned my cookie today! And all of you? Enjoy the final day of your weekend.
