If I don’t see it on Lemmy, my parents usually let me know.
No don’t worry they are progressives so it’s almost always NPR or local.
woah holy shit a bio?

We can call it state terror, but an attack of this scale is an outright attack by Israel on Lebanon, which is arguably worse. Terror attacks target indiscriminately, this was intended for combatants (yes, civilians died, that’s why it’s worse).
Think about pearl harbor vs 9/11. Pearl harbor was a state attack by Japan on the U.S. using horrific means against a naval base. 9/11 targeted the planes and buildings, regardless of who was in them
Yeah, that’s what I read too. It’s a smart way to force the weaponized pagers into the hands of your enemies.
Also sort of shows the attack wasn’t too sophisticated. Mossad might not even have compromised the cell phones, they just fed bad intelligence to whoever and they had a likely supplier already compromised.
In all - it doesn’t look too good for any intelligence personnel in Hezbollah.
I don’t think the thousands of pagers built this way really count as “improvised.”
That being said, it makes me wonder if this went in any way according to plan - 8 deaths and 2750 injuries is a large scale attack, don’t get me wrong. But they’ve now announced Mossad has compromised the supplier of the pager, which they will undoubtedly audit, and instill new policies on device security. I wouldn’t be surprised if that means they discover a lot more compromised electronics, allowing Hezbollah to pinpoint the compromise. Because 2750 survived, you now have 2750 people very interested in finding it.
In all, for 8 deaths, they’ve made their own work harder.
That being said 2750 injuries could be a large enough number to scare members out of the org.
I’m assuming no one needs that explained to them.
Not really, because he wasn’t a Black guy talking to Black people. He knew what he did.
It’s a racial slur. That’s it. Don’t use it, don’t think it, don’t think you can say it with your Black friends.
If it’s in your regular enough vocabulary to “come out accidentally” you are a racist.
You also can’t ‘unsay’ a racial slur as much as my ex can’t ‘unfuck’ someone.
What’s also neat is that it also shows one’s intelligence. If you give him a pass “oh he said he was sorry” you’re a racist AND dumb.
So I got a dumb question - how do you know where to start cutting the whales head off?
They ain’t got no neck
Man I saw this one too.
I can’t go on to Facebook without a directly link to the friends feed page. Otherwise it’s just crap like this. Ad blocker doesn’t do anything because it’s Facebook themselves serving up their ads.
Instead, I just don’t go on Facebook until someone says “so and so” has pictures of “event or person” there
Technically they don’t employ their children. But this policy also technically makes you evil.
Man I really can’t shake the thought that’s shes something not human wearing a skin suit.
Which bothers me mostly because that constantly reminds me of the aliens from They Live that occupy my nightmares with the Time Eaters from Legion.
My nightmares are scary
Step 3 was your earliest big clue. You’ll never give that to a person. You’ll only ever be asked to enter it on the website it originated from.
That being said, the other commentors are right too.
Complete inversion of entropy
The Profit.
They wouldn’t buy the attack on the Pentagon. I can’t see a scenario where you could threaten the military central of the US that somehow it was endangered from within or outside.
The airport would be a better bet back then.
Probably needed a better concept of a plan to replace it
She was getting that handshake.
That was her warning shot that it was her stage.
Ah, we’re in the endgame now.
Remote detonation sounds much safer.
EoD guys looked at all available military possible and said “nah I want one with real risk.”
