  • Great, so then we agree. The article only describes someone being killed, and all it does to justify that killing is to label them an active shooter.

    But the only person the article describes as firing any shots, is the one who killed the supposed threat.

    Maybe that person was a threat, I don't know. I just know the article was so poorly written and sourced, that it shouldn't have been published.

    "Man kills another man, but pinky promises that guy was about to kill a bunch of kids. No further information necessary, obviously checks out".

  • The article claims an active shooter was neutralized.

    The article only discusses shooting in the context of someone being shot, the alleged active shooter.

    That article, at the time that I read it, did nothing to describe anyone else firing a gun, except for the "hero" who allegedly neutralized that's supposed to threat.

    Let me put it this way. Let's say I'm walking past a middle school with a gun, I see you, and promptly gun you down and claim that you we're an active shooter threat - even though you fired no shots.

    The article, as it was written, could just of easily been written about that fictional scenario.

    You understand my problem with it now?

  • Did I miss the part of the article that described an active shooter?

    All I read was there were shots, kids ran, and "threat was neutralized".

    That chain of events could just as easily describe someone gunning down a random innocent person who actually posed no threat.

    Maybe this happened as the headline would like us to believe, but that article isn't enough to prove it.

  • They don't say who was targeted, but I bet this is a backdoor way to infiltrate specific projects. So if they have a list of 163 projects they see a benefit in gaining some sort of access to, they then compile a target list from the relevant developers/contributors to all of those projects, and go from there.

    This isn't the type of campaign that can be spammed to anyone and everyone both due to logistics and to minimize exposure of the tools being used.

  • This isn't a movie where there is a definitive implosion moment when foreign powers will able to just waltz in and "secure" their mass stockpile of nuclear weapons, or all of their ICBM silos.

    This is a massive country with a distributed nuclear triad who's capabilities are meant to withstand a first strike, and still be able to absorb a few more rounds of nuclear armageddon.

    Guess again on how that scenario of foreign powers invading to capture their nuclear weapons would unfold.

  • What are the odds this is Germany's "deep state" aka bureaucratic institutions stitching them up because they're unable, or unwilling, to democratically stem their rise?

    It's not like Western governments haven't been doing that to socialist and Communist parties long before the Cold War even started.

    Of course, the news that any contemporary far right organization has ties to Russia, including financial, isn't surprising. Maybe it's a bit of both, because I have serious doubts that Germany's other parties could withstand financial audits tying their members to shady dealings with China either.

  • This guy didn't come to West for freedom, he come to be educated by, and live in, the current global hegemonic power. By itself that is valuable experience, but it also carries significant social and political currency to the individual when they move back to China.

  • This isn't a problem that can be solved with a technical solution that isn't itself extremely dystopian in nature.

    This is a problem that requires legislation and criminal liability, or genuine punitive civil liability that pierces the corporate legal shields.

    Don't hold your breath for a serious solution to present itself.

  • Labour has been self-sabotaging and removing anyone from leadership that isn't cut from the same neo-liberal cloth that runs the Democratic party.

    That doesn't make the Tories any less of the inbred pederast hucksters that they are, but it has played a significant role in helping the Tories stay in power.

  • Maneuverability is much less of a factor now as BVR engagements and stealth have taken over.

    But, yeah, in general a pilot that isn't subject to physical constraints can absolutely out maneuver a human by a wide margin.

    The future generation will resemble a Protoss Carrier sans the blimp appearance. Human controllers in 5th and 6th gen airframes who direct multiple AI wingman, or AI swarms.

  • Can't wait for the Biden apologists to give their hot takes on this one.

    Israel doesn't exist without American military support, period.

    Redeploy the carrier groups, and Israel's entire strategy goes up in smoke, as they are reliant on Aegis to protect their airspace.
