He was wearing one. Later in the BBC article it mentions him posting pictures of his ruined helmet on twitter Instagram

Any idea when these are gonna be available in the US?

Strictly speaking, that doesn’t really answer my question. Would you be physically holding onto designated copies for people?

What’s the point of you storing physical copies? Is this deal only valid at the time of sale, so you could essentially just put the physical copy back on the shelf if they want the ebook, and then just grab a copy if they wanted to exchange? Or are you planning on dedicating a large amount of storage space to the specific book each customer purchased and then wanted the ebook of?

Well Castro came to power via revolution in 1959, which pissed off the US, and started the push towards the Soviet Union. The nation also hosted Soviet nukes for a very brief time in 1962.

Operation Praying Mantis II: Naval Boogaloo?

In all likelihood, they’ve been open for business to make it easier to nab intellectual property from the rightful owners. China has probably just decided they’ve learned enough to make their own “homegrown” products, and can safely kick all the western businesses out of the market.

Like all these multi-level-marketing scams, the scam part is that you have to buy your stock from the company/from your “upline”, and then whether or not you make money depends on you reselling your stock.

John Oliver did an excellent video on the overall topic. Definitely worth the watch.

I’m starting to think the Houthis think all it takes to be Israel-linked is to have once put in to the same port as an Israeli vessel.

Either South Korea or Vietnam! Not China, surprisingly!

I mean, similar to that argument, I’m not using Chinese software/hardware, so at least I’m doing something?

The only guarantee for privacy is to not be online at all, but that ship has sailed for all of us

Every country tries to hack each other. Doesn’t mean we should make it easy for them.

Near as I can tell, Iran sold the plane to Venezuela in 2022, but it has been grounded in Argentina since then [for some reason I don’t quite get]. Argentina is trying to score brownie points with the US, so they handed the plane over to Washington, and that’s how we got this headline.

Okay. The F150 Lighting has a range of 240-300 miles per charge, and an MSRP starting at $50k, compared to the cyber truck starting at $81k.

Yes it does. Ships of any nation have a right to transit international waters.

When Iranian ships (or ships of any nation, really) engage in acts of privacy, then they open themselves up to the consequences, whatever those may be.

If a ship is in international waters, it has every right to be there, regardless of nationalities involved.

No civilian causalities…because we’ve been shooting down all the missiles. The Houthis have been firing off rockets, drones, and missiles pretty indiscriminately at passing cargo boats, some of which do have US nationals aboard. If the US and allies hadn’t been there, there’s a good chance there’d be a half dozen cargo ships at the bottom of the Red Sea, and then there would be civilian causalities.

Also, a falling soldering iron (or knife) has no handle

That vinegar one feels way too specific to have come about naturally. Did that happen to you at one time?

Does the EGS store even have a shopping cart feature yet?
