@kdx125 @stike it is fucking amazing to me that, with all I post, the 1/1000th which is paywalled always gets called out BY PEOPLE I OTHERWISE HAVE NEVER INTERACTED WITH.
Maybe I’ll just start blocking them so they won’t have to endure my shabby service any further
So really the opposite of Memri TV ... which kinda just shows that every nation in that region talks like that towards each other. Israel is not part of the west; it's like its neighbors but with billions more in military forces.
I wonder Tuckers angle in all this. I think he's clearly been a CIA puppet for a long time. Is he now just planned opposition? Splitting the Trump supporting base on Israel means we're going to see a lot more justification for digital ID and deportations for temporary visa holders who are anti-Israel. More bullshit like "the big beautiful bill" that's intended to destroy the economy.
I literally gave you a link with videos and evidence to suggest at Tucker might have connections to the CIA. He has unexplained things in his past including time in Nicaragua. Instead of just asking "what?" you insult me because I guess I insulted your core beliefs.
If you cannot question you cannot think. Stop being an asshole.
Nah you just went right to name calling and you're STILL light switch braining this and still name calling. Something is broken with you:
Someone with "connections" to the CIA means they're a "bad guy".
So: Maybe you like anally raping ppl to death. Maybe you enjoy mass murder. Maybe you really are just low IQ. Definitely uneducated, but that's THE American problem.
I tried to give a way out of your ridiculous comment.
Why was Carlson in Nicaragua? On his interview on Megyn Kelly a few years ago, he literally said he never gets on news sites or social media; that he has staff that texts him what to read.
You're the one who accused me of taking the jab, an ad hominem attack. I shouldn't have responded in kind, but that doesn't mean you're not an asshole.
@eriner @djsumdog every time I that no tucker is CIA....he comes out with some rant like at TPUSA recently and he pulls me right back. That shit is not intelligence asset speak
"Iran’s ballistic missile attack on Washington’s Al-Udeid base in Qatar last month resulted in a direct hit on a US communications site, according to satellite imagery reviewed by AP on 11 July" So, the US geodesic dome housing equipment used for secure communications, got destroyed.

Polish prosecutors have launched an investigation into far-right leader Grzegorz Braun after he declared the gas chambers at Auschwitz to be “fake” and said it is a “fact” that Jews have committed ritual slaughter of Christians. Denial of Nazi crimes is an offence in Poland that carries a jail sentence of up to three years.
Braun, who finished fourth in the recent presidential elections with 6.3% of the vote, made his remarks during an interview today with radio station WNET. The veteran far-right politician, who is a member of the European Parliament, has a long history of hateful and conspiratorial rhetoric regarding Jews and other minorities.
During the interview, Braun referred to what he claimed are the “lies of the Talmud, the Haggadah [two Jewish religious texts], and the Holocaust”. He said that Jewish organisations “condemn those who tell the truth that ritual murder is a fact and Auschwitz with its gas chambers is a lie”.
A longstanding antisemitic canard is that Jews murder Christians, in particular children, and use their blood for religious rituals. Meanwhile, many modern antisemites deny the fact that gas chambers were used at Auschwitz and other German-Nazi camps to murder Jews during the Holocaust.
After the interviewer contested Braun’s remarks, he reiterated them, saying that the Auschwitz Museum provides a “pseudo-historical account” about what happened at the camp and blocks research into the gas chambers. He also cited a book by an Israeli historian that he says proves Jews carried out ritual murder.
That led the interviewer to immediately cut short the broadcast, saying that there “are limits to political cynicism and sensationalism when it comes to several million victims and their memory”.
Subsequently, Anna-Maria Żukowska, head of the parliamentary caucus of The Left (Lewica), one of the groups that make up Poland’s ruling coalition, announced that she was filing a complaint to prosecutors regarding Braun’s remarks.
She accused him of violating article 55 of Poland’s law on the Institute of National Remembrance, which criminalises public denial of Nazi and communist crimes. Those found guilty can be punished by up to three years in prison.
Late on Thursday afternoon, the district prosecutor’s office in Warsaw announced that it had initiated an investigation into whether Braun had committed the offence of denying Nazi crimes.
Meanwhile, Piotr Cywiński, the director of the Auschwitz Museum, which is a Polish state institution, issued a statement condemning Braun’s “scandalous” comments, which he said were not only a violation of the law but also “an insult to the memory of the victims of the camp”.
“Grzegorz Braun’s words are not a ‘political provocation’, but a conscious lie and an act of ideological, antisemitic hatred,” said Cywiński. “They cannot remain without a decisive response from the state and all decent people – for whom the memory of Auschwitz is of particular importance.”
The museum director noted that, while it was primarily Jews who were victims of the gas chambers of Auschwitz, ethnic Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, and Roma were also murdered in them.
At least 1.3 million prisoners were transported to Auschwitz during the war, with at least 1.1 million of them killed at the camp. Around one million of those victims were Jews, most of whom were murdered in gas chambers immediately after their arrival. The second largest group of victims were ethnic Poles.
Cywiński said that the museum would itself file a notification to prosecutors regarding Braun’s remarks. He also appealed to Polish media to stop giving space to Braun, who “has repeatedly shown that he cannot function in the public space without vandalism, lies, hate speech and racism”.
Last week, Braun was presented by prosecutors with seven sets of charges relating to four incidents, including his attack on a Jewish religious celebration in parliament two years ago.
He is also being investigated over a series of incidents during the recent presidential election campaign, including when he vandalised an LGBT+ exhibition, made antisemitic remarks during a televised debate, and removed a Ukrainian flag from a public building.

@Emmanuel Florac Opening windows is a start and taking plenty of very cold showers or laying in a bath tup of cold water. When I lived in cities that worked for me.
Il est intéressant de créer de l'évaporation, c'est le principe du frigo sauf que le frigo crée du froid enfermé pour restituer la chaleur par son… radiateur. En créant des glaçons pour se rafraîchir, on crée de la chaleur dans la pièce, c'est ballot. Alors, supposons qu'on a des voiles devant les fenêtres, ben l'idéal c'est de les mouiller par vaporisation. On n'est d'ailleurs pas obligé de se limiter aux fenêtres, on peut mettre des linges mouillés un peut partout, de préférence au plus près du sol, car la vapeur d'eau froide va se réchauffer pour monter, elle va créer une turbulence, une brise infime mais efficace ; l'air frais va progressivement monter pour refroidir l'air chaud du dessus. On peut même dormir sous un drap humide, on se doute bien que c'est froid. Et c'est froid pourquoi ? Car l'eau s'évapore, comme le gaz dans les parois d'un frigo. Mais dans un frigo, c'est un circuit fermé, le moteur (qui chauffe) va recompresser le gaz en liquide ou le circuit exploserait. L'eau est composée de molécules serrées qui en s'évaporant vont prendre plus de place jusqu'à chasser les molécules d'air chaud, idéalement vers l'extérieur, comme un frigo par son radiateur. Notre corps aussi est un frigo, en buvant de l'eau, une certaine quantité va s'évaporer par notre peau. Lorsqu'on a trop chaud, il faut s'hydrater. Pour la circulation d'air, il vaut mieux ouvrir petit face au vent (à l'entrée) et ouvrir en grand à la sortie. Il suffit de tester en soufflant dans sa main : en fermant les lèvres comme pour souffler sur la soupe, la sensation sur la main est froide, tandis que si la bouche est grande ouverte, c'est chaud. Et comme la chaleur monte, il faut faire entrer l'air frais par le bas, de sorte que l'air chaud soit chassé par le haut. On peut combiner les deux techniques d'évaporation ventilation en ouvrant légèrement la porte d'une cave humide si on ne l'a pas trop isolée, l'air humide va monter et sa vapeur d'eau en expansion va chasser l'air chaud par le haut. Pour une meilleure circulation de l'air, on ne bloquera pas l'entrée d'air par les soupirails et on ouvrira les fenêtres à l'étage. Un peu le principe du puit provençal. Et il y a moyen de réfléchir encore. Par exemple à mettre derrière les vitres exposées au soleil des couvertures de survie, réfléchissantes. Il y a moyen d'aller très loin dans ce type d'idées. Par exemple un ventilateur crée un courant d'air frais, en irradiant de la chaleur par son moteur. Toute énergie consommée produit de la chaleur : une centrale nucléaire produit de l'électricité et de la chaleur, l'idéal est donc d'oublier l'énergie en été pour n'utiliser que la physique. Bon, pas tout à fait, car l'énergie c'est de la physique. Et il y a de bonnes et de mauvaises idées. Je voyais un meme où quelqu'un dormait devant son frigo ouvert. C'est bien à l'avant, mais à l'arrière du frigo c'est de la chaleur qui est produite. Donc ça ne sert à rien, sauf à augmenter sa facture énergétique et dans l'absolu à augmenter la chaleur globale par consommation énergétique. C'est se tirer une balle dans le pied. Et à l'échelle de la planète, toute énergie fossile ou minérale (comme l'uranium) consommée le sera finalement pour réchauffer l'atmosphère et créer des turbulences insoutenables : vents, pluies, sécheresses. Ce qui est efficace, c'est la transformation d'un liquide en phase gazeuse, c'est la ventilation et l'isolation, mais en gardant à l'esprit que c'est toujours une question de vases communicants. Rien se crée, tout se transforme. Et c'est une mauvaise idée que d'utiliser un corps solide comme énergie, car elle sera en expansion de manière gazeuse à un moment ou un autre. Un caillou de charbon ou d'uranium consommé va augmenter la chaleur globale selon son potentiel énergétique. Et toujours à augmenter l'effet de serre, en se transformant en gaz divers. C'est absolu.

Do you have good engineers yet in America? I was listening to a compilation of old top gear episodes where they talk about American cars. Only slightly interested in cars at all but the 3 guys are good.
I notice a theme off American cars having shit handling around corners and bends. Fair enough. You haven’t got any.
But then also the theme of massive big motors, and then you get less horsepower than a small European city car. 6L V8 motor and it makes like 180 horsepower.
@wy7usa Okay but do they now have good build quality? or is it still like what they said on top gear. designed to last maybe 3 years made of plastic. like what German car makers now do

Between 2021-2025, five major reports from major, influential global institutions outlined a remarkably similar vision for how the world should be governed.
Russian President Vladimir Putin sent a wreath to the farewell ceremony for former Transport Minister Roman Starovoit. Russian media reported that it was placed in the ceremonial hall of the Central Clinical Hospital (CCH 1) in Moscow.
White Coat Waste (WCW) investigations have documented how the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is doubling down on dog and cat testing while it's been eliminated by agencies like the Navy and Dept. Of Veterans Affairs.

Are all #ISO #auditors this fucking dumb or is it an act, to lure you into oversharing, revealing your process dirty laundry?
Srsly this guy (once again, 4/4 new auditor in as many #certification audits/inspections) is asking fundamentally basic questions that make me think "have you... ever... engineered anything in your life before? why are you an auditor."
Like explaining what a jira workflow is... or what a branch/merge strategy is. Fuck's sake.
Before I retired my coworker and I used to love our auditors. Love fucking with them, that is. Seriously, made our day sometimes, and we especially loved fucking with the new greenhorn auditors that just graduated college and got hired by Toilet & Douche (Deloitte & Touche) and we were their first assignment.
We didn't have ISO audits but we did have SOx-404 audits. (Sarbanes-Oxley.)
So many auditors were left crying and questioning their life's choices after we got done with them.
We never had a deficiency in the 17 years I was in my position, even after Deloitte (and their auditors) were told to find deficiencies that it looked bad that we never had any.
Then there was the time Compliance wanted to audit my PKI so they brought in some auditors from E&Y. Supposedly their top PKI people. Brought on a consultant for that since I was confident in my practices and implementation but I didn't have the same air of "authority" as someone who made a living doing PKI audits and PKI consulting.
Still passed with flying colors even after the E&Y auditors tried to claim that everything we were doing was bullshit.
I hate auditors. Love fucking with them, but hate them none the less.
Edit:
AND YOU'RE RIGHT ABOUT THE OVERSHARING. I used to tell new employees when they came into our group: Treat the auditors like you would the Police.
Never divulge ANY information unless specifically asked for.
Never lie, but don't tell them anything.
And never let them take your evidence away with them. They want to see evidence, they can look at it on your screen in your cube. They can take notes. But they can't take anything physical.
I would love messing with our auditors, but save for the one guy we had up to 3 yrs ago when he retired who actually _knew_ shit, it seems like we always get idiots. Or maybe they're experienced in a hardware engineering concern and know what a BOM is, might know what "change control" means, but start talking software development and its like you're speaking martian. And heaven help you if you're an agile shop, it breaks their brains.
For us, most of our important backend systems were UNIX, Linux, and Mainframe. When I retired in 2022 we were well on our way to moving stuff to Windows but we would never be able to get completely off *NIX or the Mainframe and it was fun to see these auditors that had no idea was a Mainframe was, what an LPAR was, JCLs, /etc/sudoers, or *NIX permissions for files and directories, trying to make their square pegs fit into our round holes.
They'd come at us and tell us they've found all these deficiencies and we'd show them how their methodology was flawed and how there weren't any deficiencies, or they were inserting control parameters into our SOX controls where none existed.
Every year we got audited. Sometimes the same auditor would come back for a couple of years but the vast majority were stupid greenhorns who couldn't navigate the command line.
The fact that all of our processes were automated (and auditable) really made things simple for us too.
..........
BOM? Going to take a wild guess but is that a Bill of Materials?
..........
And oh doggy did we have change control. Ran the complete gamut where every tiny change had to be documented and approved. Which naturally slowed everything down and made the entire department less productive.
To when I left minor changes still needed to be documented but the approvals were much more streamlined. It was mainly honor system but everyone knew if you implemented a change and marked it as minor and it took something down or caused an outage you were going to have to get in front of the entire change advisory board the following week and explain why your "minor" change caused the outage (with the idea being that maybe it shouldn't have been a minor change to begin with.)
