Significant advances in GPS spoofing, moving from circles to *cough … complex shapes?

What they need obviously is a refrigeration ship to come in from the other side, to um shrink the problem. Or maybe they could float an iceberg in there.

I was about to post this too.

The way they juggle around all kinds of possible links to anything that looks kinda sorta like it’s remotely connected to Hillary, etc. would be funny if these nutbags weren’t also so prevalent and so prone to violence.

“The MUSIC IS ABOUT TO STOP.” For the umpteenth time.

It was all to plan, until it was done-in by a stiff breeze.

Isn’t that some kind of gynecological procedure?

Evergiven is in the single span canal.

The double span canal is much further north, closer to Al Ismailiya.

And it seems there’s a line outside Port Said.

There are maritime news services with more financial data, but they tend to be subscription only.

If QAnon was right, then their supporters would be finding out why critics of Putin have so many accidents where they fall out of the windows of tall buildings.

The side of a large container ship is a gigantic sail, that simple. The force from a 30 MPH sustained wind would be rather large.

For a Singapore to Rotterdam trip, Suez saves 10-14 days over the cape route. If the cargo isn’t time sensitive, and the cost of the extra fuel is less than the stiff fees charged by the Canal authority, some ships will go thhe long way round.

Add some time for backtracking ones way down the east African coast.

This is from last year.

Sometimes a shipping route is just a cigar.
