Apparently Lockheed hired a Chinese front company to handle its logistics of the most advanced and classified airplane modules to Australia that ended up rerouted to China instead!
F-35 stealth parts, including a classified radar-absorbing canopy, were rerouted from Australia to Hong Kong this summer. The Pentagon says some components are missing.
Politico reports the shipment was traveling from Australia to the US for repair when an intermediary handling logistics for Lockheed Martin diverted it across the Pacific to Hong Kong instead. Nobody has publicly explained why. Nobody knows who currently has the parts.
The canopy matters specifically. It's coated with a classified radar-absorbent material that makes the F-35 invisible to radar. That coating is available only to the US and its partners. A physical canopy lets an adversary study and potentially reverse-engineer the material, something stolen digital blueprints alone can't fully replicate.
Congress has been receiving briefings since June. The Pentagon confirmed the incident and said it's working to retrieve the parts and add safeguards. Lockheed said it follows all regulations but won't discuss specific shipments. The Chinese Embassy said it wasn't familiar with the matter.
For context: a 2023 GAO report found over 1 million F-35 spare parts had gone missing over five years, and the Pentagon couldn't audit the losses because Lockheed holds the data.
The most advanced stealth fighter ever built. A classified coating that makes it invisible. Last seen in Hong Kong.

There you go... This entire "AI is going to kill us" was an orchestrated psyop.
Dario Amodei was on @FaceNationCBS this morning saying "The government and the public needs to have a stake" in AI and that he wants the entire AI industry regulated.
Translation: We need a taxpayer funded bailout but we'll call it an "investment."
They want government "regulation" because it means protection from the open source Chinese AI models.
As I said, this entire Jacob Coxon media frenzy was an orchestrated psyop to manipulate public opinion into providing a bailout.
When companies go public they must file paperwork disclosing their financials.
Doing so would expose the massive cash burn OpenAI is using. Therefore, Sam Altman can't go public but he also has run out of money.
Enter "whistle blower" Jacob Coxon.
It made no sense how an obscure nobody got 165 million views on his first X post saying AI could kill us all. Then he was on every news station within 48 hours, scaring the public.
This was a psyop to "regulate" the AI companies... aka give them government funding to "protect the public from the dangers of AI."

Many have forgotten about the Orchard exploit for $ZEC (which was never accidental to begin with, it was intentional)
I have it on good authority that an equivalent amount of the supply has been secretly minted
And at the right time, Zec is a luna 2.0 waiting to happen.
You have been warned.

A hacker just drained $75 MILLION from a lending protocol so they shut down the entire blockchain to stop him
The attacker pumped a token's price 100x in 20 minutes, then borrowed against the fake value to drain everything
Cronos, the chain built by Crypto com, froze all activity mid attack, which trapped $60 MILLION of the stolen money before it could escape
Only $6 MILLION made it out
Now the validators have to decide, restart the chain and let him keep it or roll it back

Today hashrate spiked from 20EH to 38EH in a matter of hours on $PRL. That is almost a 100% increase.
Next exploit inbound?

Elon Musk says the AI boom hits a WALL this year when we run out of power to run the chips.
He says the whole industry is about to learn a hard lesson in hardware.
Chip output is exploding, but electricity is nearly flat everywhere outside China.
So the two lines cross this year.
He says by the end of the year, we will be making more AI chips than we can actually turn on.
Millions of them pile up with nowhere to plug in.
In his words, the bottleneck for the next year is not chips, it is raw power.
Whoever can turn on the most chips fastest wins the race.
In the end, the AI race comes down to one thing:
Raw electricity.

3 months of @eBay data on NVIDIA’s CMP 170HX in one chart.
For months it sat around $200
Then the market woke up
6x repricing in a week → cooldown → second leg to $1,775
Turns out the “dead mining card” was sitting on A100-class silicon
The volume tells the real story:
once people noticed, it never went quiet again

For anyone comparing these models
DeepSeek v4 Flash 0731 is better than Qwen3.8-27B in real world use. Qwen scores well on benchmarks, but when you actually use both models, you can clearly feel the difference in intelligence, especially when running DeepSeek on Max.
One-shot prompts are not enough to compare these models. Actually use them for debugging, working with large codebases, modding, analysis, etc., and you’ll feel the difference in quality. I guarantee it.

i think it's time to sell the 3090 and 4090's... the performance of the 170hx's is out of this world.

This week I accepted a position at a new company. Excited to change gears after 22 years at Cisco.
Came home from dinner to find a nice little welcome package.

qwen 3.8 max is basically free right now if you know where to use it 😳
vibex is offering the model at a 0.01x rate with up to 10 billion tokens per day
what you get:
- qwen 3.8 max
- up to 10B tokens daily
- 0.01x usage rate
- openai compatible api
- works with cursor, cline and aider
why this is worth checking:
> huge daily token allowance for a flagship qwen model
> plug it into tools you already use useful for testing coding
> agents without burning expensive credits
getting started:
1. open vibex.runninghub.cn
2. create your account
3. open the api section
4. copy your api key
5. add the key and endpoint to your ai coding tool
6. select qwen 3.8 max and test it
already have an account?
skip straight to the api key
pro tip:
try it with a real coding task instead of a simple hello world prompt
10B tokens a day is a lot of room to experiment with
worth checking while the current offer is available

New exploit: “xor dword [0xf80c2094], 1<<22”
Unlocks CPU microcode, the platform security processor, system management mode, and every internal processor register, all at once, on 100 million AMD CPUs. As far as I can tell can’t be fixed.

We've identified a critical consensus vulnerability in Ravencoin's KAWPOW validation, one that also affects other projects and forks sharing the same logic and privately disclosed it to the @Ravencoin development team a few days ago, along with a full technical report, a proposed fix, and supporting evidence.
The flaw can let blocks bypass an important part of KAWPOW validation, with further implications for node restart and synchronization.
We're intentionally withholding exploitation details while a fix is prepared. Once it's patched, I'll publish a full technical breakdown, root cause, affected code paths and remediation.
