    Ah! That could make sense too. All internet access or just mobile?, I don't know how they do it now, but some months (or years) ago I heard Ukrainian drones carried smuggled Russian SIM cards and used phone networks to relay control. (they were more remote controlled than autonomous, or with...

    Some world maritime authority said that sailing with the transponder off is dangerous, and I've heard the passage is narrow. If they sail slowly in daylight maybe it is easier to avoid collisions, (but harder to avoid being targeted). If there are many of them in a narrow pass at night without...

    Well,it seems to be selective indeed. India claims their oil tankers can pass. You know it's bad times when it becomes news that a ship sailed and arrived without problems. I've read speculation than the Iranians would be thinking of raising levies, or taxes, or call-it-what-you-will from anyone...

    Absurdism corner

    I read today in Reuters that some of the Epstein files where stolen from the FBI in 2023. Why in the "Absurdism corner"? I liked that the cracker left a note (text file) in the computer of a New York FBI agent saying that he had broken in and found nasty files about pedos. And then the cracker...

    Tony Hoare has died (at 92). I'm so sad, I can't bring my feelings in order.

    I would believe they're trying to end the war if it wasn't because Trump is saying it. Also, if they didn't know how to start a war, I'm not sure they'll know how to end it. Let's hope it's true. Today I've read France is sending a dozen vessels to ensure the Strait of Hormuz is open to...

    Thank you, I learned something today. I had heard bits and pieces but I wasn't aware it was so massive, planned and long. I always heard more about WWII than post WWII. Since you said to "educate the German people what their country did was wrong", I thought you meant something happening in...

    That depends on who you ask. Trump would probably tell you you're impatient, he just needs a little longer to build his resort, and Nethanyahu that colonisation is fast but not so fast. For Netanyahu it's a need for self-justification in front of judgements and elections, which needs some well...

    Yeah, it's so obvious all those million people so morally wrong will now be convinced that those foreigners who leave them without fresh water to drink and clean air to breathe, bomb their schools and kill civilians are the righteous knights than can and will save their country from depravation...

    I can't be sure, but I looked up photos of a BYD Atto 3 and it is roughly this shape. Also the car could have been deformed by the shock. Not sure. First thing I thought is they were driving and the missile fell a little behind the car, but what do I know? "how many times do I have to tell you...

    Well, I said China wasn't happy, but apparently BYD takes advantage of the war to advertise its safety design. It's reported that a BYD Atto 3 survived a missile near hit (not direct hit) in Jerusalem. The 5 occupants survived. I find the last 2 paragraph specially absurd, like pure advertising...

    I'm not sure. I think it will drag on. It's like Iran is just trying to force anyone with western air defense munitions to use them up, so that they end up as weak as Iran, and nobody knows how many drones or missiles and launchers Iran has still left hidden somewhere (do even the Iranians know...

    That won't bring a tear from me, but still, killing an 86 old (criminal) man isn't revolution, justice, liberation... It's impatience. They'll put someone else in his place as they would have done, if there wasn't assassination, in 2 or 10 years when he died of old age. The only problem is...

    Yes. I don't know much about Iran, but I think in general a regime change takes much more than bombs. So much more than it looks like it really shouldn't take bombs at all. You have to understand the groups there, their relationships, what each can accept, how to coordinate... who can be trusted...

    For what is worth, I hear they start on the Sabbath before Purim, so maybe the jews would have Esther's Fast on monday, the Muslims are in Ramadan (fasting during daylight) and most Christians should be partially fasting in Lent ? Whatever, maybe they should be biting more food instead of one...

    The Artemis II long overdue, overbudget and oversized human flight around the moon has been delayed again, and it won't launch in March. Next possible launch window opens: on April's fools day. Yeah. P.S.: I guess this way it's more ecological than other space programs that distort climate with...

    Yes, I don't think I have a reason to prove my age or hint my identity to any website. They already steal too much info from me for me to go helping them... If I have to prove my age somewhere it's likely a place with "know your customer" or administration or such places where they need my full...

    Well I tried to find some data both in the references @kuru sent and some references in the Commission response to that parliamentary questions, and I could spend some more effort, but at a glimpse it looks like @ElPoco would be right. It called my attention that many of the anti-Christian...

    Having few kids is OK. There's kind of too much people in the world. If we live longer than before and use more and more resources, there should at least be fewer of us, not to deplete resources. Or we should be much more clever in allocating resources, which we aren't at all. Oh. I didn't...

    I don't know what "desecrate" may mean. Or what "them" means (houses? churches? people?). Burning is generally bad. Desecrate sounds good, but I don't know exactly what it is. Is it what Charlie Hebdo did to Islam ? Because what Charlie Hebdo did was good (or at least tolerable) and what some...
