The tool, which is able to cut lines at depths of up to 4,000 metres (13,123 feet) – twice the maximum operational range of existing subsea communication infrastructure – has been designed specifically for integration with China’s advanced crewed and uncrewed submersibles like the Fendouzhe, or Striver, and the Haidou series.
Yeah, but that’s only as long as they target the US with their bullshit. Dictatorships don’t exactly have a history of stopping after „defeating“ their enemy. They’ll find new ones (spoiler it’s gonna be Europe).
Is this like how they targeted African countries economies with the Belt and Road Initiative?
Idk. That at least has some mild benefits for the countries. In the form of investions and infrastructure.
Cutting cables is just an act of war if you ask me.
Cutting cables is different than “I can cut cables dont touch me.”
Fr dawg.
Also, I don’t really want to have to learn Mandarin, nom sayin’?
I’m firmly in middle age and don’t have the mental capacity to memorize 30,000 Chinese characters or whatever the count is.
You don’t have the mental capacity to learn mandarin? lol that’s pretty nicely worded. I simply don’t have the fucks and would rather die than learn that language. I had enough trouble with French. And they use „normal“ letters.
Nothing about france can be called normal even with quotation marks.
