That might very well be the case, however, why are all of these apps so incredibly bad?

Jira especially seems like the definition of feature creep. It's more bloated than a lactose intolerant child after a tub of ice cream.

None of this drama affects those people who could reasonably be expected to support any OS.

Maybe a handful disgruntled devs will look into Redox, but ultimately, it's a toy project without any real use case. Not that that's bad, but it's not exactly the best motivation to invest your free time into.

Don't let scammers hear that. They'll sell 16TB "SSDs" for cheap and defraud thousands of people.

Some people are just completely deranged, like, pathologically deranged. Those people just annoy me, and I don't want to get annoyed/angered every time I read their bullshit.

He's already at Haitians eating cats, it's not that far to Voodoo.

.. because the evil leftists destroyed your beautiful airlines, the best airlines, the biggest planes. And now you can't afford the trip to Europe.

/s, just in case.

I'd prefer not to have any smell, but that is apparently really hard to do.

And why do all products for men have to look like I'm cosplaying a sci-fi tactical commando?

Germany has Spaghetti ice cream, but that's at least real ice cream just made to look like spaghetti.

I feel like there's a very fine balance for the effort required to publish a package.

Too easy and you get npm.

Too hard and you get an empty repo.

I feel like Java is actually doing a relatively good job here. Most packages are at least documented a bit, though obviously many are outdated.

The leadership on both sides would not only lose power, but likely end up in prison or dead, if there's ever peace.

They won't do anything towards a peaceful solution.

I don't need your location.

Pager transmissions contain a sender and a receiver. That's all the information you need. If a known Hisbollah sender sends to a receiver, that receiver obviously has some ties to Hisbollah.

By tracking who sent what to whom?

If you know the phone number of a Hisbollah member and they send messages to a set of pagers, these are likely Hisbollah pagers. If you do that to several phone numbers, you get a pretty comprehensive list of members. You don't need to know, where exactly they are. That's simply not relevant.

And again: if it's a supply chain attack, you don't even need these contacts. Just a single entry point into the supply chain of the organization.

So, what exactly do you think would be a proper reaction here?

Hisbollah is de facto a state actor in Lebanon. Lebanon is doing nothing against a group whose declared goal is the destruction of Israel, including shooting unguided rockets into civilian areas.

Now, how would you address that? Unless you have any idea how else to solve this, you're simply talking out of your ass.

Maybe the guys shooting rockets at Israel?

Don't play dumber than you are.

No, they are not.

As I wrote, you can track which pager got paged when. And you can identify who uses that pager. The pager itself does not need to transmit anything for that.

You obviously don't know how tracking works.

...and you know which telephone numbers send data to the pager and at which time. That is sufficient to track or identify individuals.

If this is a supply chain attack, the attacker already knows, which pagers are part of the organization they want to target.

What this thread here shows really well, is that the general population vastly underestimates the abilities of intelligence agencies and technology in general.

Not that I think the Israel is the good guy in this conflict, but your argument is pretty weak.

Pager are designed to be trackable. If you have such deep access to these devices, you know exactly who got called by whom and when.

Yes, there will be collateral damage, but that's almost a given in any armed conflict.

Nope, 65th place, slightly behind the US and the country of old men: Albania.

And a whole lot of content that I frankly would have preferred not to have seen.

When you're 12 and your parents have no idea what you're doing, you'll end up in very dark corners.

It's the same in China.
