Yeah a number of the hostages perished from the Carfentanil based gas pumped in during the assault. Not much alternative though when they had several suicide bombers mixed in with the hostages.

Which other massacres? You mean one’s like 2008 Mumbai attacks which were carried out by militants trained by Lakshar-e-taiba and the Pakistani ISI?

Not my words, billy boy - Malcolm Nance’s:

Zero tolerance has a couple definitions, Obama or Putin style?

I think it is pretty obvious what kind of training they had, Tyler: Amateurs can’t execute an operation of this complexity and amateurs can’t massacre 20-30 people, tactically reload, and pick right back up where they left off. It is pretty obvious they are seasoned fighters.

Yep, my case: Learned firearms safety at 10. Barrel swept my dad at 11. Lost shooting privileges for everything, even BB guns for a year.

You have a law degree? Great. Where did you pass the bar?

I would have expected a slew of ACARS data to be transmitted in the moments/seconds leading up to a catastrophic failure (whatever the cause). Any word on these data?

This one still weirds me out:

Great work on getting a nice informative post out right as this news out! thanks tyler.

At first i thought this was a silly, silly thing to say. But there is actually a precedent:

Sure thing jakey poo.

Pretty sure that “...generalizing makes you look like an asshole” counts as a generalization.

NLFSR or LFSR?

Probably so. But with enough data collected and computational power frequency hopping/spread spectrum becomes predictable... esp. when limited by bandwidth (forgot how shitty those CDL speeds are).

This. Sending kerry to OPEC & having them opening up (or keep open) the production full-stop and bottoming out the price of oil pretty much destroyed the Russian economy - GDP predicted to shrink by *6 percent*.

If the reaper is GS/ARGUS configured, then it is piping out gigabytes per second of imagery data via whatever data uplink. The actual flight control is over a satcom link. Even if it is all encrypted the profile/signature/patterns of the EM emissions are sensitive information (or else we wouldn’t have the RC-135).

Love it.

they don’t need to. they just sit right next to it and vacuum up all of the EM emissions from it, and then bring all that data back home for the head shed to hack through.
