CBP, maybe not - there’s a lot more leeway for things that happen at the border, for better or worse. But in general US law sets a high bar for claims of incitement. Your hypothetical statement would certainly be…

This leans towards my belief that the US is fundamentally fighting last century's war against adversaries that have _massively_ evolved. Look at the Ukranians: they are currently fielding an entire suite of…
Your first option comes with the major caveat that each interceptor you fire comes from a limited stockpile whose replacement rate[0] today isn't sufficient for even going 1:1, let alone accepting that multiple…
Two more sobering axes to introduce: cost and manufacturing capability. Numbers are hard to find for obvious security reasons, but using the numbers most optimistic to the defender[0] suggests an adversary using a Fatah…
A friend of mine interested in model rocketry demoed a sun tracking model rocket at a state convention. Pretty soon after, he had a chat he described as "terrifying but friendly" with "a few dudes in windbreakers" who…

Sending a check via mail is infrequently done, but it happens. I just paid my annual property taxes that way. My options were: * mailing a check * paying via credit card over the phone for a hefty surcharge * cash in…
“Balancing a checking account” in American vernacular is typically used to mean reconciling the transactions your bank has posted to the spend you’ve tracked. This used to be more important when you wrote paper checks…
Of important note, none of that requires any modification to the pager. Paging protocols are ancient and unencrypted: a little SDR stick and you can run your own sigint on your local pager network.
Airlines are already banning pagers and walkie talkies. I wonder how many duds are currently being processed by Hezbollah right now. (0): https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/07/world/middleeast/emirates...
Technically speaking that would be much harder: pagers don’t have microphones, and most don’t transmit - and those that do send very small messages. You’d have to add significant new capabilities to pull off…

I’ve had a Blitzortung Blue sitting in a box just waiting to be soldered up - maybe this post kicks me into finally believing in my soldering iron skills and doing it.
Agreed entirely. My grandfather’s 5513 desk diver was passed down to me. It had scuffs and scratches and the lume had long since stopped glowing and turned to a mustard color. And while I never planned to have any of…
One important note with mpox is that there are two distinct lineages of the virus at play: the outbreak in the US in 2022 was clade IIb, which seems to be difficult to spread - hence the “close physical contact”…
Anyone offering a discount of over 2500 basis points to participate in what might be one of the most accessible markets across the world isn’t offering actual value, they’ve just found a good mark.
Probably not enforceable != enforceable. Are you worth suing or does everyone sign? Are your state laws and jurisprudence going to back you up? If you are ever going to sign an employee agreement that binds you, consult…
And if you do need to touch Java for reasons Clojure doesn’t impose, the interoperability story is really good. I’ve done this with internal libraries - it’s easy to get them pulled into a Clojure code base, wrap them…
