In case it isn’t clear from the video, he is an active IDF member and was manning a checkpoint in the West Bank at the time. Attacker might not have even known he was the son of anyone special.

I wonder how that compares to the “normal” rate? Carriers are pretty big and soldiers aren’t exactly known for their mental stability

lol I wish, 90% of them will just say things would be worse if we had a Dem president

Except Iran, which is the relevant country here

Ending it with “Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

Unfortunately still funny. Trump-isms are gonna be rattling around in my brain till I die

The elevator pitch is that it’s an easy to install and use Linux distro with extensive AI integration. From Alibaba’s perspective, it’s an AI project in a time where AI is booming that also isn’t directly tied to big US tech firms. In theory, it could become a Windows/Mac competitor.

majority of Dems support a military coup to remove Trump

They’re probably worried that the recent massive drone strike from Ukraine will prompt some kind of retaliation from Russia (or at least worried enough to stay out of Poland right now)

Arknights is jingling keys at me

It’s not actually all that political, the imperial Russia equivalent is comically evil but the revolutionaries are a mix of students and anarchists that don’t have a very strong ideological component. Maybe they’ll take it in a more interesting direction in the future, idk.

Also trying Archipelago with some friends. It’s basically a cross-game randomizer, fun but kinda frustrating depending on the game. On the technical side it works quite well, though.

Love AoE III but it never had much to it beyond the campaign for me. Feels like they didn’t quite know how to give it the AoE II treatment so it’s just okay now

this time for sure

Also Macron is vagueposting for some reason

Does Europe seem a little spooked to anyone else?

Macron Warns of Rising Russian Threat at Confidential Élysée Meeting

UK says high-readiness forces ready for Suwalki crisis

István Kapitány: Hungary’s gas supply will be possible even without Russian gas by next October

All from the last 24 hours. Obviously the Saudi oil supply vanishing has a lot of people on edge, but there seems to be an expectation that something will be coming from Russia also. Is this Ukraine’s last winter?

A shipment of F-35 fighter jet parts was rerouted to Hong Kong this summer — then vanished.
Congress and DOD are investigating, amid the possibility that China may now have access to the highly-classified program.

From Politico

100%, AI has admitted gotten further than I thought it would but they’ve kinda run out of training material for it. It may stick around but it’s not gonna create a singularity either and they need to delay that revelation

Seems to originate from an interview with Axios a few hours ago

I don’t think a military of any size could stop Ansar Allah from hitting Saudi oil infrastructure

They would have been (and likely still are) in more danger from a competent local military than they are from Ansar Allah. There isn’t much risk of the war making it’s way to Ridayh, even now. Still a failure, but more of a political one.

In response to the new travel laws, some Chinese outlets are reporting that Huawei founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei and his family have fled China. No comment has been given by Huawei either way.

Or is it different because Brexit somehow?

Potentially? Looks good for the EU if the one member state that decided to leave later balkanizes for the privilege of rejoining.
