Our brave intelligence gatherers vs their conniving spies
US military is weighing the likelihood that Iran’s retaliation will strain the supply of those crucial munitions while it struggles to replenish them, affecting not just the war in Ukraine but also Washington’s battle plans for any possible conflict with China or Russia. … discussions have focused on the need to preserve those munitions for other theatres, which could force Israel to take more measures to protect itself while the US military shields its own forces and other allies, the official said.
I’ve said it before: :isntrael: is a Crusader State and will wane when Western support wanes.
Critical
for bad design!
Trump did say he would send the criminals out of the country lmao!
I seem to recall a certain nation's senate tried to underpay their troops, and a certain charismatic general promised higher pay and then marched on the capital.....
This right here is proof that all of the ‘propaganda’ our government peddles is completely full of shit. Also especially fuck every single collaborator.
:shocked-pikachu: :pika-pickaxe:
Oh it’s a saga. It’s been all over the Orange site all last week. tl;dr; OpenClaw bot tries to get PR into OSS matplotlib, maintainer rejects, bot publishes hit piece on maintainer, shenanigans ensue. That article also links to future articles in the saga at the top. As a chef’s kiss an Ars Technica article about the incident was written by AI and fabricated even more stuff before it was pulled.
I’m ok at economy, but this seems like nothing compared to the 2019-2020 propup, where overnights were trading in 20b-60b every day for months even before COVID. Right now it’s something to keep an eye on in case it develops into something interesting.
:heartbreaking:
The recent incident of an open source maintainer getting libeled by a bot paints a picture of the future. We can expect autonomous agents to make revenge porn for coercive purposes without any human in the loop besides the victim. We will see more of these laws.
cautiously optimistic
I’m banning this phrase from the public discourse.
Because Germany is part of the West…? :amerikkka: :solidarity: :germany-cool:
Moscow is not acting alone. It is pursuing its revisionist agenda…
Revisionist? I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
Liberals never believe leftists at first, but they come around after being cooked.
During the Munich conference last year, US Vice President JD Vance made comments attacking Europe, saying the EU was wrong to allow mass immigration into its borders and censor free speech on social media.
In recent months, the US relationship with Europe has been strained by Trump’s efforts to seize Greenland from Denmark, a member of the EU and NATO.
Following Rubio’s speech, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said she was “very much reassured by the speech of the secretary of state,” calling him a “good friend” and a “strong ally.”
Preparing to give out the :fell-for-it-again-award:
The school photo company Lifetouch is owned by the Apollo group, who’s founder Leon Black is a major Epstein player. The link is very tenuous, but given how widespread the coverup has been I understand why people are freaked out by even a small connection.
There’s no evidence that Lifetouch, as a company, conspired with or even corresponded with Epstein. Lifetouch’s current CEO, Ken Murphy, is not in the public Epstein files.
These claims began because Lifetouch’s parent company is owned by private equity firm Apollo Global Management, whose ex-CEO, Leon Black, has come under scrutiny for his close financial and personal relationship to Epstein.
Apollo acquired Lifetouch’s parent company, Shutterfly, when Black ran the private equity firm. Lifetouch’s president at the time, Greg Hintz, was not in the available Epstein files.
In a statement, Lifetouch said Apollo is “not involved in the day-to-day operations” of Lifetouch and that the company has never provided images to any third party. A spokesperson for Lifetouch told Snopes that any allegations it was involved with Epstein’s crimes are “completely false.”
Is the contractor Vault-Tec, by chance, because we’re in the Fallout Timeline?
