Brazil has aircraft carriers, advanced radar, and 4.5 generation aircraft.
If Delta Force DARED to step into the jungle, they’d be torn to shreds.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Venezuela operated Su-30MKV 4.5 gen aircraft, along with modern radar systems for the S-300VM long range SAM in similar amounts to current Brazilian inventory during the capture of Maduro by US forces.
Brazil also operates a Helicopter carrier, not an aircraft carrier.

So it turns out that Ukraine's issues with Starlink were caused by Ukraine.
Starlink terminals disconnected at speeds above 160 KPH, as determined by the Starlink terminals internal GPS.
To get around this, Ukraine hacked the Starlink terminals to think they were stationary regardless of speed.
SpaceX figured this out, and updated the system software to detect excessive speed by seeing how rapidly the terminal switched from on satellite to another. This broke Ukraine's hack, and Starlink would no longer work at high speeds.
Ukraine was using Starlink in a way that violated the terms of service.
Starlink figured it out and stopped it.

Thank you to everyone who tuned in to last week's X Space with David Palmer (@Metaversebizz) and Parker Spann (@P4Cap).
One question from David stayed with us: when did you last make a normal phone call, or send an SMS? Most of that traffic now runs through apps built on top of the network, and so does most of the value.
For mobile operators, he sees one big area left:
"So I think the last frontier of that is payments, right?"
Listen below.
Always the French…
Hi @elonmusk , we’ve conducted the most comprehensive study to date on tax unfairness in the United States.
We found that you, like your fellow billionaires, pay a lower effective tax rate than the average American.
So if you really want to help the American people, I have a better suggestion than charity: pay more taxes. 🧵

For anyone who missed yesterday’s discussion with Parker Spann (@p4cap) and David Palmer (@Metaversebizz), they covered David’s role as @TelcoinTAO's telecom advisor, mainnet, and how they’re approaching operator adoption.
A few things worth sharing:
• Parker said mainnet is coming later this year. No specific date was given.
• Validator onboarding is happening now. He asked operators and mobile money providers to get their technical and strategy teams involved before mainnet. Reach out to @TelcoinTAO if you are interested in getting involved or to learn more.
• Developers are already working on integrating existing applications and bringing local currencies onchain.
• Part of the plan is to move existing mobile money apps with millions of users onto Telcoin Network.
• Parker said the banking and partner API allows operators, wallets, and fintechs to offer bank accounts under their own brand. Customers could use those services through apps they already have.
• David is already helping them reach the right decision makers. Parker said those introductions are getting them into the right rooms pretty much immediately.
• The first use cases Parker expects to move quickly are remittances, mobile money, and payments between operators, using stablecoins and onchain FX.
• Parker also said they’ve identified an agentic application he’s excited about, but left the details for another time.
David kept coming back to one point: operators need to see how this makes them money. His work includes helping the team build that business case and connect it with the people who can approve it.
He said he hopes we’ll start seeing the results over the next few months. He also described the next 12 to 18 months as a critical window for execution.
No new operators were named, but Parker did explicitly say onboarding and integration work are underway.

Just got this email from @TelcoinDAB…
You can now move USD from your connected bank account into eUSD and withdraw it back to your bank through ACH with ZERO fees charged by Telcoin.
No deposit fees. No withdrawal fees.
This is the kind of stuff that matters when it comes to making digital cash practical for everyday people. Getting money in and out shouldn’t be complicated or expensive.
Another piece of the infrastructure coming together. base:0x09be1692ca16e06f536f0038ff11d1da8524adb1
