Fortunately does one just need to ask again.

Re: Here's hoping.

Well ...... I wouldn't like to pass comment on whether it is saner heads to prevail, nematoad, but I wouldn't choose to disagree with everything else you share there for it may very well be perfectly right, although one does hope that there be evidence in a future prosecution of a persistent vehicle of change which can be enthusiastically explored and questioned about operations that new lessons actually have been learnt and all things are agreed to be changed, rather than continue to descend into the Pits and Cloisters where Madness and Mayhem Run in Asylums.

As for exceptional help to the UK Cabinet [and anything else is just obscure window dressing] one could do an awful lot worse than ask Dominic Cummings [wherever the hell he's snuck away off to] what he is going to do with Future Shenanigans for Present Processing with Past Product Management/Established Operations.

Re Imagination Technologies Comment policy: "We love comments and appreciate the time that readers spend to share ideas and give feedback. However, all comments are manually moderated and those deemed to be spam or solely promotional will be deleted. We respect your privacy and will not publish your personal details." ..... it would appear that the company's AI prowess depends on and defaults to manual interference making decisions and taking actions on what is to be made more widely known or kept locked down as if a secret for future servering .... or not as the case may be whenever such simple servering is realised and feared future disrupting ‽

Such a policy though is both counter-productive and self-defeating, for the cans of worms kicked further on down the road just appear somewhere else, and whenever foreign and/or alien, be instantly way beyond their command and control, which is surely a bug and 0day opportunity to be ruthlessly and exhaustively exploited and it has been asked on/of https://www.imgtec.com/blog/taking-the-hyperlane-with-img-a-series/

“Inside every A-Series, from the smallest to the very largest are eight individual hardware control lanes, each isolated in memory, enabling different tasks to be submitted to the GPU simultaneously, for fully secure GPU multitasking. It means we can have eight completely different workloads and run them simultaneously; it’s a feature that’s unique in the market.“

Is Imagination Technologies able to assure and ensure in the case of A-Series HyperLane Controls, a minimum of eight completely different workloads running simultaneously as if in a virtual parallel towards or from a mutually beneficial positively reinforced goal/safely secured base/core source …… rather than being busied in tasks which are not entangling nor greater empowering ‽

Such then surely has one pondering on the relatively easy availability of an Almighty Singularity which enables the extraordinary rendering of completely different pictures for realisation and presentation …… which in its turn opens up a veritable Pandora’s Box of Novel Opportunities and Exploitable Operations attractive to many questionable and unsavoury characters too.

A Gladiatorial Fight to the Death with Handbags Drawn at Dawn

amanfromMars [2004151921] ......... observing on https://www.zerohedge.com/political/pentagon-ig-strikes-blow-amazon-rules-10b-award-microsoft-proper

Amazon’s Amazon Web Services (AWS) unit had long been considered the front-runner in the contest, because it pioneered the commercial cloud industry; still commands more than twice the market share of its nearest competitor, Microsoft Azure; and is the only vendor already authorized to operate at a “secret” or “top secret” level, having provided cloud services for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) since 2013.

Surely that simple single fact alone disqualifies Amazon as it would compromise and divide, and even decimate its allegiance and support for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) ...... and always have the Departments of Defence and War rightly fearful of split loyalties regarding sensitive authorities/deadly matters.

The research from the MAUD committee was compiled in two reports, commonly known as the MAUD reports in July 1941. The first report, "Use of Uranium for a Bomb", discussed the feasibility of creating a super-bomb from uranium, which they now thought to be true. The second, "Use of Uranium as a Source of Power" discussed the idea of using uranium as a source of power, not just a bomb. The MAUD Committee and report helped bring about the British nuclear program, the Tube Alloys Project. Not only did it help start a nuclear project in Britain but it helped jump-start the American project. Without the help of the MAUD Committee the American program, the Manhattan Project, would have started months behind. Instead they were able to begin thinking about how to create a bomb, not whether it was possible.[40] Historian Margaret Gowing noted that "events that change a time scale by only a few months can nevertheless change history." .... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_Alloys

Re: Soviet Army in Manchuria

IT was/is all about capturing and priming/inventing and presenting a leading apocalyptic narrative, Grinning Bandicoot, which does not necessarily need to be widely known, just ably supported by a desperate few.

However, such right dodgy pathetic spin which cannot suffer simple deep forensic investigation and would contort and confound itself to try and bury the truth from discovery, is no longer a viable option for effective deployment and population command and control.

And that creates and guarantees, in fields and jurisdictions which pimp and pump such conditioning tales, stealthy deadly opposition and intangible revolutionary activity, which is shared here as a question for the cold false comfort which any disagreeable denial may supply?

Planet Earth has new existential drivers/private pirate policy owners/wannabe invincible imperial leaders and their practical form is ethereal in nature and therefore they and their forces and sources are virtually untouchable.

US prez Trump's administration reportedly nears new rules banning 'dual-use' tech sales to China

Another View of Somewhere Else Not So Very Far Away. Does it Impinge and Entangle here?

Another thorn in the side of transpacific collegiality is China's handling of the COVID-19 outbreak, prompting Trump to repeatedly call the pathogen a "Chinese virus" in briefings and social media.

Hmmm? Crikey, Batman ...... who'd have a'thunk it? Uncle Sam jumping the gun and the shark and behind the curves and catastrophic ripples ahead? ....... Crimson Contagion... October 2019

What an unfortunate coincidence there are so many similarities in the current real life global pandemic emergency just as was expected in the functional exercise.

The Crimson Contagion 2019 Functional Exercise scenario was based on a novel influenza A(H7N9) virus that originates in China and is antigenically distinct (not matched ) from stockpiled vaccines.

The scenario starts off with tourists becoming ill in China with non-severe acute respiratory illness and then departing the Lhasa airport to other cities in China before flying back to their respective countries. During their flights home, additional tour group members, who were not ill when they embarked on their return flights from China, begin to experience the onset of respiratory symptoms and some develop fever. Figure 3 below shows how the virus begins to spread around the world, as the ill tourists fly back to their countries of origin.

The virus rapidly spreads via human-to-human transmission around the world and to the continental U.S., where the virus is first detected in Chicago, Illinois. The virus continues to spread to other metropolitan areas across the U.S. Figure 4 below shows the extent of the outbreak across the U.S. at the start of the exercise.

Conduct of the Crimson Contagion 2019 Functional Exercise began 47 days after the identification of the first case of H7N9 in the U.S. By this point in the scenario, the HHS Secretary has declared a national public health emergency and the World Health Organization has declared an influenza pandemic — the 2019 Influenza Pandemic. The federal government has decided to use stockpiled H7N9 vaccines as a priming dose for selected persons at high risk of complications from influenza and designated critical work force groups, but vaccination has not yet been implemented.

Figure 5 depicts the epidemiological curve associated with the outbreak. During the Crimson Contagion 2019 Functional Exercise, the H7N9 virus is in the “ acceleration phase”,the phase during which the number of cases consistently increases. Figure 6 depicts the virus' high transmissibility and clinical severity, resulting in high-morbidity, and how the H7N9 pandemic compares to other historical pandemics. In the exercise scenario, forecasts give a 90 % chance that the pandemic will be of very high severity, with 110 million forecasted illnesses, 7.7 million forecasted hospitalizations, and 586,000 deaths in the U.S. alone.

Who needs novel enemies whenever weak elite executive back office administrations are so invested and infested with so many corrupt and bankrupt ne'er do well friends, apart from those perverse and subversive shadowy administrations of course. No enemies ... no wars .... no need for obscene secret military spending, easily also personally abused and misused whilst touting and dumping/pimping and pumping products and services no body really wants nor needs to buy for a peaceful coexistence.

Surely you know War is a Racket even if you haven't read Major General Smedley Butler, United Sates Marine Corps telling you so there.

It sure is a mad, rad, bad, sad world you create. Are y'all retarded with debilitating learning difficulties or is that restricted and confined to a chosen few pushing and pulling levers at the top of weak elite executive back office administration branched trees? And why ever would you allow that other than one admit it be just a bad madness?
