If Scripture is so obscure that it lacks objective truth without Tradition, then the Orthodox cannot use Scripture to objectively prove the authority of Tradition. They are trying to prove two equally obscure things through one another.
If the written word requires an unwritten tradition to explain its objective meaning, then by what word is the unwritten tradition to be interpreted? The unwritten tradition of the Fathers would require another tradition to explain its meaning, ad infinitum.
If the Bible is not clear enough to establish objective truth on its own, then adding unwritten traditions does not solve the problem; it only exposes the entire Christian religion to ridicule.
The negative air defense reality of a 2,700km range one-way attack drone cannot be overstated for Russia or the USA.
Let us consider for a moment a Cuban "OWA-Drone Crisis" akin to the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.

Via a question to @grok of Cities of 500K(+) in OWA Drone range:
"Distances are approximate great-circle (straight-line/air) from Havana or central Cuba; actual drone paths could vary due to routing, wind, altitude, & launch site (e.g., closer to Florida from western Cuba)

All listed cities are well under 2,700 km.Florida and Southeast (easiest reach)
Miami, FL (~370 km / 230 miles) — Well within range.
Jacksonville, FL (~1,000–1,100 km) — Within range.
Tampa/St. Petersburg area (metro >500k in cities/urban) — ~400–500 km.

Al Carns just dealt the latest blow to the Starmer regime.
But did you know that his election campaign was funded by a pro-Israeli lobbyist with close links to the gambling industry?
I’ve been investigating Carns’ financial disclosures. Here’s what I discovered:🧵

I’ve been investigating Carns’ financial disclosures. Here’s what I discovered:🧵
Al Carns has been eager to establish himself as an “independent” voice, resigning from Keir Starmer’s cabinet on Thursday night.
But his financial disclosures show only ONE donor to his 2024 election campaign.
The ex-head of Labour Friends of Israel, Jonathan Mendelsohn.

The ex-head of Labour Friends of Israel, Jonathan Mendelsohn.
Labour peer Jonathan Mendelsohn is also an ex-trustee of the New Israel Fund’s UK branch.
In 2018, he resigned from the shadow cabinet after attending a men-only Presidents Club Dinner at which female hostesses were groped and sexually harassed.
He denied any wrongdoing.

If we permit a great forgetting, we enable and functionally endorse the same behavior in the future. Senator Ron Johnson is one of the only people in federal leadership willing to reject that forgetting. Here is what he has documented, and what the legacy media will not touch. 🧵
In his own words, from the report he released and the hearing he chaired:
On April 29, 2026, as Chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, I held a hearing and released a report: "Unmasked: How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Toward COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Signals."
Well I hope cops beat the crap out of both of you I live for that type of content hopefully one of you loser's will record it and I'll save it to my hard rough cop action that I love 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

The official story of alpha-gal syndrome is tidy. A lone star tick bites you, and months later you can no longer eat red meat. Tidy stories should make you suspicious. Here is what the tidy version leaves out. 🧵
Start with the obvious question. If ticks cause alpha-gal syndrome, why did the disease only show up in the late 2000s? The lone star tick did not arrive recently. It has been biting Americans across the South for centuries.
So either this is a genuinely new disease, or medicine finally learned to see something that was already there. Those are very different claims. Almost no one in the field will say out loud which one is true.
Gemma 4 12B QAT (dense) achieves 1000+ tokens/sec prefill on 8GB VRAM with 120k context
Gemma 4 12B QAT (dense), TurboQuant (Without MTP), RTX 4060 8GB VRAM:
Prefill: 1000+ tok/s (42% increase)
Decode: 25+ tok/s (25% increase)
Context: 120k (150% increase)
prefill was 700 tok/sec and decode 20 tok/sec with only 48k context without turbo quant (older test with mtp link in the comments)
llama.cpp TurboQuant flags:
-m gemma-4-12B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -c 120000 --cache-type-k q8_0 --cache-type-v turbo3 -ngl 99 --port 8080
tested with a 27k prompt, 120k context loaded.
-ngl 99 here isn't a typo, full 12B dense, every layer on GPU, on an 8GB card. that's the part worth sitting with. The model has vision, audio input, thinking/reasoning and fits your 8GB card.
TurboQuant's KV cache savings are what free up the room to do that at 120k context.
side by side with yesterday: 26B A4B MoE got 320+ tok/s prefill. this dense 12B is clearing 1000+
rig: RTX 4060 8GB · i7H · 16GB RAM
same two flags as yesterday, different model size:
--cache-type-k q8_0 --cache-type-v turbo3
thanks to TheTom/llama-cpp-turboquant, TurboQuant fork of llama.cpp by Tom Turney (@no_stp_on_snek) to make this work.

Dale Carnegie wrote a book in 1936 that has outsold almost every book on earth for a reason.
"How to Win Friends and Influence People" revealed 10 habits that make people want to be around you.
1) A person's name is the sweetest sound they know
"How to Win Friends and Influence People" revealed 10 habits that make people want to be around you.
1) A person's name is the sweetest sound they know
Carnegie found that hearing your own name activates the brain differently than any other word.
It signals one thing: you are real to me.
Use it when you meet someone. Use it before you leave.
Most people forget names because they were thinking about what to say next.

2) Become genuinely interested in other people
The most magnetic people in any room are not the ones with the best stories.
They are the ones who make you feel like your story is the most interesting one there.
You can make more friends in two months by being interested in others than in two years trying to get them interested in you.
