They should express this in dollar terms comparison YoY, not barrells to fool the gullible

Of what use is selling 600,000 barrel of oil at $49 average to India when the market is selling at $70-$80. Russia has nearly blown it's yearly budget deficit target already by end of March. Propaganda for Putidiots.
The paper quoted said their revenue from crude export increased compared to same time last year, so what are you talking about? Moreover, it shows that the sanctions were merely academic in name.

Where did the paper say that

The paper said their barrels increased to deceive gullible folks like you to your conclusion while they sell at deep discount

That their revenue has fallen is no secret. Last year March they received $1.2 trln rubles, this year March $688 bln.

⚡️ G7 nations are considering a near-total ban on exports to 🇷🇺 Russia, Sources say - Bloomberg
They keep on sanctioning themselves thinking they are sanctioning Russia grin cheesy

They think the world still revolves around them. Russia don't need the so called G7 anymore.

BRICS is the there for Russia. BRICS economy is bigger than G7 economy.

I pity the like of Germany, France and Japan. They will suffer well well. Germany is undergoing deindustrialization because she no longer import cheap gas from Russia for it industries.

NORD stream 2 gas pipeline has been bombed by their so called ally called America cheesy cheesy They are now importing LNG from US which is 4x expensive more than the one they import from Russia

The economic power of the G7 is fast decreasing. Russia doesn't need them again. Infact, they need Russia more than Russia need them.

GloriousGbola:


i asked this because this statement clearly marks you as a computer illiterate who has no idea what he is talking about

what was the fastest processor in 1993? what is the fastest processor today?
i asked about thermal efficiency because todays chips also use less power and generate less heat . the whole purpose of reducing chip size

if you have actually owned used and maintained computers you will know that your 1ghz processor of 1999 uses more power and generates more heat than your 1ghz processor of today.

do you think you can control a modern drone with 1993 tech?

As usual, lies and deceit and deniability are the hallmark of your ilk. And when your lies are called out, you resort to insults, blackmails, and name-calling.

If you're talking microchips, you must know about Moore's Law. If you don't know the law, then I wonder how you think microchips work or what you even think microchips are.

First things first, today's microchips neither use less power nor do they generate more heat than microchips of 20 years ago. If anything, they even generate more heat.

Have you heard of clock speed? it is the rate microchips process information. It has been stagnant for a while because as microchips get smaller and take up less space, they generate more heat and need more cooling, which manufacturers cannot provide. So they stopped making devices faster.

All these are summed up in Dennard Scaling, which states that power consumption remains the same. But with these things generating more heat, even Dennard Scaling is starting to fail and microchips are hotter than they are predicted to be. This is one reason many gadgets running the latest microchips are further slowed down because despite running at lower clock speeds, they still generate more heat.

So your claims about chips being made smaller because smaller chips generate more heat, is wrong.

The whole point of making microchips smaller is to allow them to be inserted into everyday commercial gadgets. Smaller chips mean smaller TVs, smaller home PCs, smaller phones, smaller toys, smaller laptops, smaller everything. But they don't mean smaller bombs or tanks or aircraft since those have enough space to accommodate any size of chip.

Could we have produced the iPhone with the microchips developed in 1993? Yes. If we had everything else (the screen, battery, and all). But if we used the 1993 microchip, the iPhone would be the size of a room.

Again, you keep talking about computers. Do I need to school you on what a computer is? You are talking military tech one moment and talking commercial tech the other. You think Macbooks and PCs and laptops are the definition of computers? Are they military tech? Do you know the classes of computers there are? Do you even know what a computer is?

Laptops and phones are just one form of computers. Calculators are computers. Filling station pumps are computers, and I'm barely scratching the surface. If you're talking military tech, talk military tech. If you're talking commercial tech, talk commercial tech. Both intersect at some point. But that point is not with microchips.

Lastly, what is your definition of a modern drone? The US-made MQ-9 Reaper? As I mentioned in an earlier, many modern US military ships run on Windows XP, which was released in 2001. What I did not mention is that many more, like nuclear missiles and aircraft, still run on Windows 95.

Talking of the MQ-9 Reaper, It flew for the first time in 2001 and was introduced in 2007. You know when it went into development? In the mid-90s.

So what microchip is in it? Mid-90s microchips or 2007 microchip? Or 2023 microchip? It is the mid-90s microchip or at most, an early 2000s chip. What of the OS? It will be Windows XP or even 95. Don't be surprised if they still use floppy disks to do one or two things on it.

If they had to change the microchip or OS midway, then they had to restart the production from scratch because the microchip is the "brain" of any electronic device. So why will they change a microchip midway? Because they need more space? Space to put what? Your ignorance? Get an education and stop rambling.

👍🏻 Double likes for this.

U.S, Taiwan have the fastest chips but Russia has the best military tech. They can keep their fast chips IDC.

Till date the U.S have not been able to field a hypersonic missile. Something Russia has constantly used in the war.

Sometimes, I wonder how some of them reason. They begin shouting something and hinge every other claim on it. Ukraine is important because of grains. Taiwan is important because of microchips. Netherlands is important because it produces the machines used to make microchips. So what isn't important at this point? They barely know what a microchip is, what it does, or even how it works. Ask them one or two questions about it, and they will begin grumbling and talking all over the place. grin grin grin
