Trump weighs Iran strike as Pentagon officials privately divided over ‘bunker buster’ bombs Exclusive: The likelihood of a successful US strike on the Iranian nuclear facility buried deep underground at Fordow is a topic of deep contention, defense officials say The effectiveness of GBU-57s has been a topic of deep contention at the Pentagon since the start of Trump’s term, according to two defense officials who were briefed that perhaps only a tactical nuclear weapon could be capable of destroying Fordow because of how deeply it is located. Trump is not considering using a tactical nuclear weapon on Fordow and the possibility was not presented by defense secretary Pete Hegseth and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff Gen Dan Caine in meetings in the White House situation room, two people familiar with the matter said.

A Chinese motorist claims that his new Xiaomi SU7 Max driver fatigue warning keeps triggering because of his really small eyes.Mr. Li, a young driver from China’s Zhejiang Province, recently bought the luxurious Xiaomi SU7 Max, a beautiful EV sedan powered by a powerful motor capable of taking the car from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.78 seconds. It’s one of the most coveted electric cars in the world right now, but for Li, it has been a pain to drive. Soon after taking his new ride out for a drive, the Chinese man started hearing the “Please focus on driving” warning sound, even though he was not distracted and was watching the road in front of him. The message “Focus on driving, pay attention to safety” kept showing up on the car’s digital display as well, and it took him a while to figure out that his eyes were the problem. https://www.odditycentral.com/news/chinese-man-with-small-eyes-keeps-triggering-cars-asleep-at-the-wheel-warning.html
