Reply to Ukraine fighting is deadlocked, spy chief Kyrylo Budanov tells BBC by apple_kicks

What he actually said:

>Mr Budanov said Russia was "now completely at a dead end" suffering very significant losses, and he believed the Kremlin had decided to announce another mobilisation of conscripts. But, he added, Ukrainian forces still lacked resources to move forward in multiple areas.

So I don't think the headline is accurate. If Russian forces are taking significant losses and Ukrainian forces are not, then it is not deadlocked. The same if Russian equipment is degrading while Ukrainian equipment is improving.

Advanced Russian sperm freezing system: they dip their testicles in a bowl of liquid nitrogen. After all, they won't be needing those where they're going.

Reply to comment by baphometromance in Taiwan's TSMC founder says 3nm fab will be built in US by jussulent_tummy

3nm is a bullshit marketing name. The minimum spacing between wires on "3nm" process is 24nm, the minimum spacing between gates is 48nm. Impressive enough, considering that the wavelength of the ultraviolet light used to create the circuits is 13nm. The actual density increase vs 5nm is roughy 1.25.
