Was it targeting a civilian on densely populated area or was it targetted at a military structure with bunkers and lower density when out in the open during an attack? If it was more the former case it would be closer to the early death toll of Russian missiles striking apartment complexes in Ukraine but with greater destruction. A MOAB has a destructive capacity of approximately 18k lbs of TNT and is usually used in an air burst deployment where as IEDs are more of a small grade explosive used to kill undefended civilians or unsuspecting soldiers or to take out small vehicles.

ReVanced and Grayjay do the same thing but for free and are open source so long as Google keeps trying to engineer enshitification the proud people of the open source community will engineer a solution.

While by number of casualties that may be correct a single military grade bomb can be something as small as a claymore on the onehand to as big as a MOAB which is designed to be the size of explosive as a small nuke without the nuclear fallout.

That and he knows about the Antichrist.

Since they are open source and in france criminal organizations have already forked the OS for more security how hard would it be do anyone to find a slightly older version if ever Graphene does get forced and continue the good work without said requirements?

So Democrats will do the bare minimum or low hanging fruit decisions without making actual decisions that will potentially stop the next Republican administration from going even more authoritarian?

Is that the John Stewart we have at home?

I am getting that yellow bastard vibes from that guy.

If we can’t get billionaires to pay taxes and stay out of politics then at least they are stupid enough and have enough hubris to spend billions and years on stupid vanity projects that go nowhere so that they will eventually lose said billions.

You know I think it will be similar to how kids in the south for the last 100+ years have dealt with seeing their ancestors names on Confederate monuments and in school textbooks, it will slowly be massaged into being a “good thing actually” or “not that bad” and you will have those who will deny that Noem killed her dog in a gravel pit or something.

I hate how relevant this appears to be to daily life.

That may be true due to the backlash from people on his political spectrum.

He did at least 2 genocides in the movies before the OT, where he destroyed a planet with tarkin, but didn’t he do some genocidal things in the clone wars shows too?

I’m not saying they do, but to assume that Iran transferred all data on how to produce a Shahed drone without some kind of ensurance that they will keep getting paid out in some form and not just forgotten the moment being friends with Iran is inconvenient for Russia is a graver error to commit. They may not be being paid in money but before this current bombing campaign I’m sure Russia was transferring the minimum they could get away with to Iran without hampering their own technologly transfer for the drones. All dictatorial governments (call them small coalition governments for more accuracy for this discussion as all brands of autocracy have their own rules but rely on a small group of people to run the government with loyalty to the ruler being paramount) have a corruption issue, be it Russia with their crony Oligarchy or Iran who has a specific group of people who handle the money for the country and can never be legally prosecuted for money disappearing from the government coffers. If we can know for sure that both of those governments have corruption issues we can also surmise that pocketing as much money as they can is going to be a part of their governments standard operating procedure and to avoid being robbed if they have a licensing agreement they will have physical impedements to avoid the licensing infringement, and they are not the only people to do this the F-35 for all exports except for 1 have a similar scheme in place.

They could be major in your local area and go through multiple states but the big ones ending in 0 or 5 tend to go across the country. And I-80 and i-95 would fall into that category, if those roads stay in a lower tier or get expanded later is another story.

While they may produce most of the components for the drones Iran probably kept some production parts homegrown to ensure Russia pays their licensing fees. That doesn’t mean Russia can’t make their entirely homegrown production line from beginning to end but that would take time when most of the production line was set up on Iran and they could purchase those components for their production run. Even if that isn’t a factor in a shooting war you probably want the maximum production of weapons needed to continue shooting.

Yeah it’s probably like corruption the optimal number isn’t 0 but as close as we can get without hamstringing society. Make it just hard enough so that those who would do it if it was easy can’t do it easily and then you have 90% less corruption. Think of it like piracy, it was big in the 2000’s when buying DVDs was a thing and storage was getting cheap but record labels and studios were not able to update their business model and the easiest way to get most media for the average user was something like Napster. When streaming came along and Netflix had a massive catalogue and was better in every way to cable and same with music streaming platforms at first piracy almost stopped completely and is only coming back due to enshitification. We need to implement a model like Netflix streaming which aligns incentives for politicians to make good policies and not sell out the country from under us for personal gain by making said decisions have actual negative and immediate consequences, be it trading in the stock market while in office or for a ster period of 2 terms after they serve their time in office, being a lobbyist for a set amount of time before or after presenting themselves as a candidate, and enforcing an open period after a law is drafted for public review and ability to lodge complaints and a 2-4 year reassessment of the law to see if it is actually doing what it was set out to do or not and repeal it if not (with exceptions for laws that govern long term policy such as schools where it can take 14 years for the policy to actually show concrete results.

I think it is usually multiples of 10 as well so for example I-5 runs from the border in San Diego (or close enough) to the border with Canada. I-10 runs from LA in California to Jacksonville Florida, smaller routs ending in 2, 4, 6, or 8 are small sections that terminate a few towns over usually or connectthe bigger highways to eachother.

I mean yes it raises gas prices which will help Russia on the one hand but for their war in Ukraine that may not be as big a help as having Iran still standing and putting political pressure on NATO assets as well as being a weapons manufacturing hub that Ukraine couldn’t easily infiltrate and bomb.

But that would make sense and be an effective way of making laws and governing and more importantly would stop those who haven’t meaningfully added to society from being able to easily profit from it in a way that others can’t.
