The accident was due to a pilot entering incorrect coordinates, said a military official who declined to be identified because of the sensitivity of the matter. The official said that the two jets then dropped four bombs each, with all of them detonating.

Authorities would suspend live-fire exercises until there was clear understanding of what went wrong, but the incident would not affect major joint South Korean and US military exercises due to begin on Monday, the official said.

Residents in the area have protested about the disturbance and potential danger from nearby training grounds for years.

Steganography may be interesting in that vein. Hiding data within larger images / sound files etc.

Classic correlation v. causation. The sweet spot for productivity is believing in and wanting to do your work. For some people, this motivates them to spend tons of time working. For some people, this boueys then to high productivity even while exercising great work life balance and avoiding burnout.

Google used to know this, and spend huge amounts of effort and resources on trust, enjoyment, innovation. Now that's something to find at other companies.

What horrifying asses Trump and JD are.

Yeah, about half the time I refresh the page I get "access denied FE". Not that I refreshed it that many times, that could cause unnecessary load on the site.

TIL, I would have thought (if done correctly) you'd just pass out and then die. Though I guess altitude sickness is pretty unpleasant. Anyway, still opposed to the death penalty — too easy to be wrong, no need for state sanctioned murder in this age, etc.

Those who administered the method, according to Greenberg, described graphic scenes that included seizures, bleeding from the nose and mouth, and other issues as the animal died. Those in attendance of the nation’s first execution by nitrogen hypoxia shared similar disturbing details after attending the execution of Kenneth Smith in Alabama earlier this year, who was the first person to die in the U.S. by administration of gas for execution.

According to Death Penalty Info, wit­ness­es report­ed that Mr. Smith appeared awake for sev­er­al min­utes after the nitro­gen gas began. They observed that he “shook and writhed” for at least four min­utes before breath­ing heav­i­ly for anoth­er few min­utes. “This was the fifth exe­cu­tion that I’ve wit­nessed in Alabama, and I have nev­er seen such a vio­lent reac­tion to an exe­cu­tion,” said media wit­ness Lee Hedgepeth.

Quite the virus:

Measles is one of the most contagious diseases known. The virus travels through the air and can linger in the airspace of a room for up to two hours after an infected person has been present. Among unvaccinated people exposed to the virus, 90 percent will become infected.

In the US, about 20 percent of people with measles are typically hospitalized. Five percent develop pneumonia, and up to 3 in 1,000 die of the infection. Later in life, measles can also cause a fatal disease of the central nervous system called Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. And the virus can erase immune responses to other infections (a phenomenon known as immune amnesia), making people vulnerable to various illnesses.

Reuters if folks prefer that.

Just waiting around for tens of minutes wherever you were supposed to meet someone, when they didn't show on time.

Thanks!

Ah, that's what that blue bull with yellow hair is.

P.S. Syntax for spoiler markdown.

Fun, even works on Linux (Ubuntu) after turning on Proton for all games. I like the level-based design.

that discussion of topics that was more popular on Lemmy, like Linux, would drown out my other interests

I certainly run into that. I don't think I have the energy for multiple accounts, but I wish I could ask for roughly equal numbers of posts from my top 4-5 communities, instead of News + WorldNews dominating everything.

Yeah that one's a mystery to me. Sometimes disappears, sometimes gives you gold. I was wondering if it's related to the blue bull in some way.

I wonder what version of Windows the systems are running.

And that security is by app not by network rules.

Does she have a more upbeat view than Parable of The Sower? I could use some optimistic sci fi (having run out of Becky Chambers).

And sell a lot of equipment to genocide perpetrators.

Having learned more about the patterns, I can see that I should have

So with the board state as it was I couldn't necessarily have done better, but better strategy could have let me survive on the same initial board.

Still nowhere near the times some people are posting though.

I was just reading the Ars article about the new seafloor detector and comments on that. From that, it sounds like there's a cascade of the neutrino decaying into other particles and emitting light/radiation as it goes, so I would assume that gives you a vector and I wonder if different stages emit different wavelengths. Glad to be corrected though!
