This threat was discussed my entire career. Time and time and time again myself and countless others pointed out the incredible vulnerability of our bases… the AF did nothing. We’ve stood out on the flightline and said “imagine how easy it’d be to just fly a drone with C4 onto one of these jets…”

Isar Aerospace's launch was aborted during autosequence. After a hold in countdown due to a range violation of the danger area by an unauthorised boat, the countdown reset exceeded the launch window. Isar Aerospace is working towards a new launch date. Further updates will follow.

Guess I’ve been putting it off long enough, but time to can this bitch.

It's still fantastic to me that the Dragonfly will drop out from under its parachute-and-aeroshell and fly itself to the surface under its own power. No skycrane, no airbags, it's a real creature of the air from the moment the backshell falls away!

this rules

you see me wearing this shit you should chop my head clean off like a samurai

i'm a 9/11 truther. by which i mean these towers never existed. "there used to be this big tower in new york that looked like a boring gray prism. actually there were two of them. no we didnt just re-use a 3D asset to fake the pictures, real people died in them!" you guys actually believe this shit?

"Where did all those people we brutalized, murdered, threatened, arrested, deported, and slandered go?"

A burnt offering being made to an idol of Zamparan, patron god of oath-takers, warriors, and repentant adulterers. According to legends, he was decapitated by the jealous spouse of his lover, only to be reanimated and given the head of a dog. Worshipped in Karazad.

The Knight of the Flowers, by Georges Rochegrosse (1894)

I have been part of pipelines that use AI (though I dont use it myself). And I still want to see it all burn.

So the jury deliberated long enough for Meta to earn the revenue needed to pay the verdict.

just some quick napkin math on this, $375 million is 0.18% of meta's reported 2025 revenue of $200.97 billion, or 0.62% of meta's reported 2025 profit of $60.46 billion. $375 million is the maximum penalty allowed by law. the system just like, fundamentally doesn't work lol

For reference, this is equivalent to a $180 fine for a person who makes $100,000 a year: literally rounding error to them.

You know, once a jury has made its decision you are extremely justified in dropping the "allegedly"

This is purely financial. Video generation is astronomically expensive in terms of compute without any actual use cases or potential cash flow. They were staring down the barrel of a $5+ billion bonfire of cash annually to make AI slop. They're already hurting for cash as the bubble starts to pop.
