New research claims that Russian Twitter campaigns in 2016 didn't change voting behavior.



The Russian trolling campaigns have one problem. Makers of those campaigns believe in the authority and selfish ideology. So those campaigns are telling ideology, that is against the values of most Western people. Or those values against the ideology of Western social media users. Another thing that decreases the effectiveness of Russian trolling campaigns is that people know more about Russian and Russian internal affairs than in the past.  

The third thing that is is decreasing the effect of Russian troll campaigns is that people afraid that somebody will target them for cheating and trolls. If people are afraid to join those groups where propaganda- or information operations happen. Delivered information would not reach their targets.

We know that many people are afraid of trolls and other kinds of things. And we are all faced with cheating and trolling. The Russian trolls are operating under the control of the Russian government. And they sometimes use very bad language and terms like "bitch" about their targets. So, those words might seem funny, but they belong to some child's mouth. 

The thing is that criticizing Russian trolls is prohibited in Russia. The Russian government also uses trolls in the internal political area. If somebody doesn't believe Putin. And shows loyalty to the Russian government, that thing causes a very bad situation for a person who dares to talk against the government. The person who doesn't support the Russian government and the Ukraine war is automatically a Western agent. 

The difference between Western and Russian culture is that Western people are more critical than Russian people. The key element in Russian ideology is that "government's leaders are wise men, who are above the society". That is why nobody should review those people. The role of regular citizens is just to obey their leaders. If somebody is against their leaders that means discrimination, and that happens immediately.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
