I mean, we know for a fact that they used Palantir’s system for planning the invasion which is an automated intelligence analysis system.

That alone makes it entirely possible for them to have information and not know about it, on top of all the other existing ways that information can be compartmentalized, or thorough analysis and double checking can be skipped.

We do know that the US was targeting the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corp (IRGC), and the school is in an IRGC compound.

The most likely explanation seems to be that they intended to target an IRGC building, but instead hit the school. Whether that’s an issue with the missile’s guidance system, the plane’s targeting system, outdated maps, or a flaw in whatever process the military is using to select targets, is unknown.

It’s of course, possible that the US intentionally bombed a little girls school, but it seems somewhat unlikely. Even the most hawkish war mongerers recognize that randomly slaughtering hundreds of school girls is not going to gain support for your war.

No, it wasn’t, he got lucky. You want to know what a high Cha score looks like, look at Obama.

Trump is mid cha at best, he was just born rich and does evil shit so can get ahead at others expense.

I feel like in DnD terms, Bush would have low-mid Int, high char, mid wisdom.

Trump, would have low Int, low wisdom, low-mid char but high luck.

Good. Get off the internet and do anything else.x

This is literally how he always acts. There’s a reason that many instances do not federate with lemmy.ml, his instance.

He’s incredibly pro communist, pro Russia, pro China, and will ban you for even mentioning that something could be foreign propaganda.

At the end of the day, hopefully your instance builds their server code from source and inspects it to make sure there’s nothing nefarious. It would be nice to use a decentralized Reddit like platform not coded by him, but no one else has the time, resources, ability, and/or dedication, to step up.

I would still rather use Lemmy over Reddit, though I did switch to donating to piefed, the Canadian instance runners, over donating to him.

Also a fair point

Why the hell would you sail a warship around without any munitions…?

Because they were invited to an international naval exercise that required them to be unarmed…

Yeah, no one’s arguing that whoever was ordered to push the button was ordered to push the button, the point is that it was a shitty order to give.

It’s also rich to be like “we had to attack them, we’re at war”, when you illegally and unilaterally started the war several days earlier.

Are you a vegan?

Fair that they’re not mutually exclusive, but you did imply that that’s why the majority don’t switch.

There’s also lots of people who become developers because they want to build the best software they can and don’t care to spend time thinking about whether one open source hosting platform is better for their code over another if they accomplish the same thing.

Your response is insanely narrow minded and judgemental, not everyone chooses to fight the same battles you do.

I mean fair point, I can’t find any info on whether or not anyone verifies that the ships are unloaded or if it’s self reported. And it does seem unlikely that a nation would let another country inspect it’s warship.

If they had no intelligence of the ammunition situation (doubt) it could be risky to try to board a warship.

I mean, there’s literally no way the US didn’t know it was on the way back from an ammo-less exercise. The Indian naval exercises were very public, with 74 countries participating.

Wow that’s fucked up on multiple levels.

1. to attack a literally defenseless warship … Could you not have, you know, boarded it instead? Forced it to surrender? Feels like at that point you can just threaten to do what you did and they would have to comply.

2. if you’ve seen the released periscope footage of the attack, and realize that that explosion was fully from the torpedo and not from an ammo store blowing, it makes it look that much more like an intentional massacre. Is there really no smaller munition on board that sub that can be used to disable a defenseless target?

Literally every Samsung Android phone has come with their Dex desktop for like 10 years too.

I fucking hate Google at this point. They’re just an even shittier version of apple now. Locking down their shit for no reason, and claiming decades old innovations are actually new and theirs.

Let’s be clear, for a feature that Samsung phones have had for a decade at this point.

Self-Driving works decently in predictable environments but anything outside of those limits can make it literally crash and burn.

Public road transportation by individuals just has too many cases where real decision-making is required.

Despite all their resources, I think they’ve given up. All the brilliant engineers and scientists have given up, because they know what we’ve suspected for a long time.

I mean, Waymo is still actively expanding to new cities and expanding its coverage areas within cities.

Tesla may have given up on the consumer market for that reason if they were banking on a super llm based self driving system, or it could just be because they got burned when Elon rallied consumers against them.

Like, so much insanely cleaner than your food.

Sewers are the giant pipes with all that air at the top.

Your water pipes are filled almost the entire time, and the trunks are literally constantly flowing. There’s little to no air for anything to grow with, and at the very beginning there’s almost no bacteria since it’s treated water being pumped in. All on top of the that copper is a natural sterilizer.

Tha’ts more of a goal than a plan.

We should do this regardless
