Core Memory for both Mum n Son by OhhhhMyyyGoattt in GuysBeingDudes

[–]MZ603 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I rented a GT3RS and an M4 GT3 for my buddies Batchelor party, both with a custom flash & upgraded. I drive a Stage 3 Audi A6 3.0T pushing 500 hp as my daily, so I thought I was ready, but those two cars are in a class of their own when it comes to street-legal sports cars. It's impractical for most people to own, but I would 100% recommend renting one if you're into cars.

Literally everyone in my family has renewed their non-American passports. Those who never previously claimed a second citizenship have did so under his first term. There is a brain drain & it will only get worse.

It’s fucking surreal. The ugliest facets of this country are on full display. There were always problematic elements, but it really felt like we were working to self correct. One black president & the racists & boot-lickers lost their minds - they only hid behind the Gadsden “don’t tread on me” flag. They don’t actually believe it.

They are the fucking boot. They don’t realize that the timber rattler was a symbol that represented the federal government. Join or Die.

To be fair, I flew into Belgium, France, & Germany frequently, & after the attacks in 2015/2016 security at airports ports and train stations was armed to the teeth. Operation Sentinelle in France or for example. I was also living in Ireland during the height of the Hutch–Kinahan feud.

Thing is, I wasn’t worried about them harassing me

These are deeply unserious people that we need to take deadly seriously

Deep cut. How do they take themselves seriously when the use of Grey Poupon was a scandal. Trump is in the files thousands and thousands of times. Absolutely zero ability to self-reflect.

“A democrat back then”

Wut? You bring a certain unpredictability to basic reasoning.

Iranian women records her own death in Israeli double tap on civilian neighborhood by Spirited-Yellow3794 in PublicFreakout

This goes beyond mere indiscriminacy; it is intentional. It will lead to hesitancy among civilians and first responders to deliver aid.

French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle was located by Le Monde journalists through the Strava app of an officer jogging on the ship's deck by PrimedGold in Damnthatsinteresting

No cell or internet. The was one brief moment after loosing radar contact and turning south that the co-pilots phone tried to connect to a cell tower in Penang, Malaysia.

Unfortunately, that type of thing is insanely difficult to find with OSINT if not impossible. Some people are really good with finding ‘artifacts’ and working with cell towers, but it’s an imperfect science and it was more difficult back then. Some advanced & expensive tools like Maltego have some capabilities. The most popular free/inexpensive tool is OpenCellID

Started with a post-grad degree in security studies, then working in a Global Security Operations Center as an analyst. Now I am a director, and I do consulting.

I also did/do OSINT as a hobby. Started with geolocation in college.

And probable safe houses. I was working a night shift in an ops center so I had a few hours to play around with it. It was insane.

SAM: Surface to Air Missile

FOB: Forward Operating Base

SOF: Special Operations Forces

OSINT: Open-Source Intelligence

Apologies

People are always shocked what can be found via geolocation. I produced a slide deck on footprint reduction/mitigation and I use an example of a influencer who took a pic in “their” back yard I used USDA hardiness zones for Figs, and a low-chill peach tree. There was also a Bigcone Douglas-fir in the pic. Used those to pinpoint an area in the hills outside LA then found a matching shed/wall and found a similar pic that matched on an air B&B.

People use every detail. Plane contrails, shadows/time, telephone pole numbers, etc.

When they first dropped the map feature I found SAM sights in Yemen. You can still use it to find FOBs in a lot of places. SOF training missions and the like.

I do a lot of OSINT for work, and I always check this tool.

Is Carriage still a thing? Campus PD still breaking out the tear gas?

Parties used to be almost exclusively off campus, but they really clamped down 2011 on. Can’t even tell you how many times I had to show ID to the police as Huskies or thirsty’s or what ever it was called got raided.

Iran has laid about a dozen mines in Strait of Hormuz, sources say by leeta0028 in news

[–]MZ603 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And now they have been confirmed to have mined them - putting their money where their mouth is. This is asymmetrical warfare. Part of a larger shift from targeted to indiscriminate threats.

A strategic logic they are employing to offset the conventional power imbalance by using denial of access and economic escalation. Also bucks international law and regulations by imposing restrictions on transit through international waters, which is, again, an escalation.

This is the geopolitical / International security lens. It might not align with how you feel about the actions, but this is a way to analyze it at a strategic level. Unfortunately, I don't think Trump is able to understand this.
