Sure, but obviously an active shooter changes the situation in a way that authorizes deadly force.

By whose definition? Gang members ARE civilians, (assuming they’re not actively shooting at things). Just because they’re damaging to society does not change that definition.

Even if they WERE gang members, civilized nations do not shoot civilians.

They could have boarded the ship and detained them, but they chose violence.

This is some serious “let them eat cake” shit

I love projects like this. Do one thing, super well, without adding a kajillion dependencies. I love the vanilla HTML / CSS approach.

Serious: this is a fascinating discovery that could have enormous implications for agriculture. Being able to command a plant to perform actions on cue could let us optimize growth.

Silly: the researcher’s last name is Assmann lol.

It’s not about Americans, it’s about humans. I’m just quoting the article directly.

The religious significance of an uninhabited island seems like a nothingburger compared to this:

Along with allowing Musk to rain schrapnel down near Mokumanamana, the FAA also granted SpaceX the ability to do so around Hawaii’s eight main islands — which are populated with American citizens

Maybe they were joining two snakes?

All that would do is get Jeff Bezos to hire a hitman to take out Trump.

I love the iconic Far Side glasses on the mother bird.

Protest MUST disrupt something or it will be ignored. That’s why riots and boycotts get shit done while normal protests fizzle out.

Every major social policy change I’m aware of was accompanied by riots.

Disrupting parliament is far less violent than a riot yet still makes the point effectively.

Plantation never was the dirty word in history. Slavery is the dirty word.

Wait, if we could harness that level of fuck off power, we could transition to renewable energy much sooner.

When it’s espionage. I don’t know if it was in this case but military bases are supposed to remain mostly private.

One U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said there was high confidence that Pakistan had used the Chinese-made J-10 aircraft to launch air-to-air missiles against Indian fighter jets - bringing down at least two.

The air-to-air missiles were carried off of the ground isn’t the flex you think it is. There’s definitely brain rot going on here but I’m pretty sure it’s not me.

Mmm yes, missiles aren’t REAL fighting. It only counts if you do it traditionally — pilots shooting at each other with pistols from their open cockpits.

The “dog fight” between Pakistani and Indian fighter jets, which Pakistani officials say downed five Indian planes, was one of the “largest and longest in recent aviation history,” a senior Pakistani security source told CNN. The Pakistani claim has not been corroborated and could not be immediately verified by Newsweek.

5 planes downed would be a lot, I wonder what the actual count is.

Algae is also more efficient per cubic meter, if I understand correctly.

No but it is tone deaf (heh) to use Claude, a non-self hosted AI, and Suno, another non-self hosted AI to literally sing the praises of why you shouldn’t use corporate software.

Especially when open source and open weight models exist to do both of those things, albeit at a lower quality.
