Yeah, it was definitely intended as humor an attempt at levity.

Pagers, often used by civilians and healthcare workers for communication, are small, battery-powered wireless devices that receive text messages, audio, and visual signals.

Boy do I feel old now…

According to Walla, the operation “neutralised a significant part of Hezbollah’s military command and control system.”

This was the next sentence. My personal pity-party was subsequently cancelled.

A further linked article speculates that the pagers were rigged with explosives. As their main power source is an alkaline AAA battery. No crazy Mr. Robot hack, just regular depravity.

Followed shortly by ‘oh shit’ and ‘we dropped two weights’ then ‘guys, it’s getting kind of wet in here…’

Just kidding, mostly.

Serious question: how does a submarine know how much it weighs?

👀

Dopemobile?

Is there an award for the most British headline?

We were doing fine until the SuperCoral™ evolved the ability to breath air back in 2047… must’ve been some of that salamander DNA that we used. 

There was always that rumor he was a military sniper before becoming a kids TV show host.

Clearly Predator porn.

Well. I’m off to purge that image from my brain:-)

It’s definitely not lupus 😝

I call it: Man With Two Right Arms Draws House Md. During Colonoscopy

Not sure, but fish get ladders ;-)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I went looking for… well there was another site that listed them but it seems to be shut down now, so thanks for posting that.

I also ran across and article that mentioned IMDB having a page for every movie that had details on its original shooting format e.g. 2K digital/35mm/sony handycam (looking at you Blare Witch Project)… but I think that’s gone subscription only? Not sure, maybe just gone.

Yeah… not always. Especially older stuff that would need to be rescanned from film.

I just sent it to the two friends that are always whining for me to grab them a CAM :-)

I just meant someone could uprez an old 1080p transfer themselves ;-) Hopefully there’s a bit more going on with these releases, extra pixels aren’t everything… but I’m one of the folks that believes it should be a new scan, not just some fancy uprezing algorithm.

My parents always warned me that sitting to close to the TV would rot my brain :-)

Nice little list of piracy sites that Hollywood is having a hard time shutting down at the end of the article ;-)

Gotta’ machine gun them out before people realize they can make their own 4K version at home now ;-)

Fair point. In my defense I hit a paywall and just kind of gave up, did a bit of assuming there 😅
