Ok but the senior WH official told me that this was always the case. Iran would see no economic relief without demonstrating that X number of ships are moving safely and freely without danger.
A leaked draft of the U.S.-Iran peace deal portrayed Washington as overly lenient toward Tehran, reportedly sending Trump into a fury. He immediately ordered his team to shut down the "weak deal" narrative and made clear that Iran would not see a dollar before taking concrete steps. zurl.co/XM8BW

"AI is being made an ITAR product because so and so fearmongered too hard!" No, AI has been made an ITAR product because it's literally being used in strike planning by the USAF and autonomous targeting is being used by Ukrainian medium range strike drones. IT'S A WEAPON

Notes: -- Fully ambi. Which is not only great, but means I can hit the mag release with my index finger, because my thumb isn't long enough to get on that recessed button. -- Nice sights esp. for a gun of its era, they're actually three-dot with orange paint. It needs to be refreshed but that's not hard. -- Trigger pull is quite nice, both double and single action. Overall its great and I'm happy. I just need a CZ-83 in .380 to keep it company. And more magazines...

Russian Z-bloggers post footage of Ukrainian drones freely flying over Russian-occupied Crimea, attacking fuel trucks and military targets. They predict that soon this will lead to "panic and total collapse of all main roads."
Ukraine is cutting off Russia's logistics in the direction of Crimea. The only remaining route for delivering gasoline and large cargoes to Crimea is the Kerch Bridge. And we remember how beautifully the trucks burn and explode on that Bridge. 📷: October 8, 2022

Two cops played quick-draw with loaded guns. One pointed his gun at the other. The other drew his own gun from inside the patrol car. Then a round went through the windshield and hit the first officer in the shoulder. And somehow, the city called it “horseplay.” If a civilian did this, nobody would call it horseplay. They’d call it a negligent discharge, aggravated assault, or worse. But this is the double standard gun owners deal with every day. We’re constantly told civilians can’t be trusted with guns. We’re too emotional, too reckless, too untrained, too dangerous. We’re told to leave it to the “professionals.” Then two cops play around with loaded firearms and shoot each other. This doesn’t mean every cop is reckless. It means cops are people. Some train seriously. Some don’t. Some are responsible. Some aren’t. Just like civilians. But when one citizen does something stupid, politicians try to punish every law-abiding gun owner in America. When one cop does something stupid, nobody argues every cop should lose their Glock. That’s the inconsistency. So next time someone says “only cops should carry,” remember the windshield. Full video just released on my youtube channel Shop the America hat: Shop.MrColionNoir.com

A Russian fiber optic FPV deployed as a “waiter” on a road is equipped with a second, rear-facing camera. Ukrainian ground units that have eliminated these ambush FPVs by approaching from the rear aspect to shoot the FPV or cut the fiber cable must be wary of this development.
Ukrainian soldiers are confronted with multiple Russian “waiter” FPVs clustered on a main supply road that must be cleared.

Awesome.
Reminder: Zohran and his family keep an extra luxury home in Uganda in a neighborhood surrounded by armed security because everyone else is so poor.

One of my dangerous realizations from Charlie Kirk's assassination is that assassinations work The left mocks the "great man" theory but it is basically true. If you kill a uniquely powerful or effective person, you can decapitate a movement Ken wants his opponents decapitated. He is eager for someone to "misunderstand" his words and take inspiration from his desires and shed blood. There isn't really a good solution to this outside of stripping him of his license to practice law for this encouragement of murder. But most of his colleagues agree with him because every institution is hopelessly corrupt.
The Popehat trajectory has been something to watch

The left won. The world's richest man is an electric vehicle manufacturer who is decarbonising the atmosphere while helping quadriplegics, restoring space travel, and making the internet and freedom of speech widely available across the globe. Unfortunately most of the people who identified as "left" were simply pathological grief merchants with oppositional defiance disorder. They build nothing. They stand for nothing.

Old CRT TVs use a powerful electromagnet to steer an electron beam that ignites the display phosphors. This creates a distinct electromagnetic signature. TV detector vans could detect a TV's signature emanating from a house and reference the property against licensing records.

Blizzard automatically deleted my copy of WarCraft III and replaced it with the remake which didn't even run because I hadn't bought it.
Why do people always act like games getting remade means the original stops existing like p4g is on steam right now man nobody is stopping you from still playing it

The whole incident shows how rotten British police are. They lied and claimed the man was the victim of dangerous 12-year-old girls. This was taken as fact by all of British media and any disagreement became “misinformation.” It turns out that what people saw with their own two eyes was the truth. But it took a year, long after the story died, for police to admit it.
I remember when everybody rubbished the 12 year old girls at Dundee who tried to defend themselves with an axe. A Bulgarian man was just found guilty of making sexual comments towards them and assaulting one of them. A lot of people need to apologise
