Spanish investigators have confirmed that the Russian cargo vessel Ursa Major, which sank off the coast of Cartagena in December 2024, was carrying undeclared nuclear reactor components likely bound for North Korea.

According to La Verdad, the ship was part of Russia’s shadow fleet and took an unusual route from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok through the Mediterranean.

Though the ship’s manifest listed only empty containers and port equipment, aerial images revealed two large, undeclared containers at the stern. Authorities later identified them as housings for VM-4SG nuclear reactors.

What does a housing for a nuclear reactor look like?

it’s just a factory shutting down

They linked it because of the reason Volkswagen was selling the factory.

You either didn’t read the article (I get it, it’s paywalled) or you’re intentionally misrepresenting the link.

Either one makes your argument look bad.

Something wrong with that link

No, like this:

TOKYO: A man was arrested after stabbing eight people and injuring seven others with what was believed to be bleach at a rubber factory in central Japan on Friday (Dec 26), officials said.

Curious to find out the backstory.

I used to have narcissism, but then I helped myself out of it.

I did such an amazing job (the best job, in fact) that I don’t have it anymore.

I went down a retro pc gaming rabbit hole a while ago. It was the one game I couldn’t get working on my machine. Feels good that something useful came out of it

There’s

Leadfoot?

Sounds like Spelling Jungle. I remember that game had the dumbest ending - something about leaving the hose faucet on.

Edit: it was a faucet

I don’t mean SimAnts.

Microsoft Ants came out a few years later, on the Microsoft Gaming Zone.

It died when they pulled the plug on the platform, and part of me wishes they’d release it on Steam. But that’s probably the nostalgia talking.

This is by far the largest music metadata database that is publicly available. For comparison, we have 256 million tracks, while others have 50-150 million. Our data is well-annotated: MusicBrainz has 5 million unique ISRCs, while our database has 186 million.

Does this mean the MusicBrainz database will soon go from 5 million to 186 million tracks?

My cat would hate this because the footing is so uncertain.

I have read this three times and still have no idea what your app does.

Am I going to scan a barcode and it tells me whether something is healthy?

Do I give it my grocery list and it suggests alternatives?

Do I turn on the microphone during a food pub and the TTS voice says “that’s a lie”?
