We heard the exact same thing in ‘22.

Fingers crossed I’m wrong, for sure.

It’s not like you were wrong; it’s just that some context can help.

The US military reports the cost of individual airframes as “lifetime cost to operate” (it’s required to by law) — this includes things like crewing, maintenance, and fuel over a 30-50 year scheduled lifetime, as well as development costs.

Cost of procurement is much lower. So, it doesn’t cost $200 million to replace those platforms. It’s certainly not cheap, just nowhere near that much.

Hungary is a fully captured state. It is the poster child for illiberal democracy; it’s actually no longer possible for anyone but Orban and his allies to win at scale.

lol yes

It’s just one database file

Yes and more easily

Easy to do on Keepass

I can’t think of a reason to choose Bit/Vaultwarden over Keepass.

I wouldn’t say there’s “discourse.” That implies there are two sides engaging. It’s really just NixOS users telling everyone else they’re doing it wrong.

That really depends tbh.

These munitions could be just being moved from one site to another, not destined for a site supplying the Iranian theater. They could be being sent for decommissioning. They could be loaded just for regular evaluation, loaded test flights. They could be going to the Iranian theater, but the UK government gave special exception for this case. Or it could be what we all thought right when we saw the headline and these are going directly ti theater to be used on Iranian targets.

Without more information, it’s impossible to know. Brits should be demanding more information for sure; I just told my partner and she is emailing her MP right now about this.

This is a common misconception (it doesn’t actually apply to embassies either, from which the myth arose). Every military base of a nation within another nation’s territory is governed by a status of forces agreement (SOF); usually a large general SOF for all locations in the territory and also a narrower SOF that applies to that site specifically.

The US is less reliant on products which traverse the strait then in the other population center on the planet. It actually may be in its strongest strategic interest to continue on a course which keeps the strait closed, ignoring the humanitarian impact and loss of soft power and goodwill.

They are? The suits from major publishers were all over the news when they were started in early 2025.

No, you just seem confused.

It was from a low-level spokesperson’s statement at a press junket that the (then-current) internal versioning system was being abandoned.

It’s absolutely a mischaracterization.

No, because that was a shitty headline that mischaracterized an employee’s one-off statement and was then held up as gospel truth by the internet.

It did, the dateline in this article is from February 19th.

This is a really old test. There are forum posts of the same concept and some news articles with the test that are so old that they 404 now. An unshielded coat hanger is the most common. And yes, this is done frequently with analog signals. No, you can’t tell the difference.
