Given Iran said they’d retaliate, and said when… there must be a technicality here. Like “it wasn’t notified via the UN” or “they didn’t email it to war@whitehouse.gov” or something.
WASHINGTON/BAGHDAD/DUBAI, April 14 (Reuters) - Turkish, Jordanian and Iraqi officials said on Sunday that Iran gave wide notice days before its drone and missile attack on Israel, but U.S. officials said Tehran did not warn Washington and that it was aiming to cause significant damage.
Turkey’s Foreign Ministry said it had spoken to both Washington and Tehran before the attack, adding it had conveyed messages as an intermediary to be sure reactions were proportionate.
But, the administration of every president in my living memory would likely have reacted the same way. There seems to be an impressive inertia in the USA’s Middle East bullshit that seems to transcend president and party.
Marketing has to be one of the most fungible business activities there are. That any business maintains its own marketing department (you’d still need someone to be the marketing director) is a waste of resources.
“Here’s $1m, put my products in front of 200,000 of the best market segment. Oh here’s some art to use.”
You’d think that, of all the peoples of the world, the one people who’d least want to be, who’d know better, the agents of genocide and forced migration would be der Juden.
The farmers standing with their arms crossed outside a sheep barn in rural Brittany were absolutely furious, completely en colère. For a visiting centrist politician, that made for an earful. For Europe’s far right, it has provided an opening....

Yo dawg, I heard you like XML over HTTP so I put XML in HTTP in your XML over HTTP.
So many technologies doing crap that plain old HTTP already does:
My search-fu is failing to find any material about George and Lori that isn’t regurgitated news of their deaths.
I was hoping to find some material in medical journals describing the nature of their craniopagy and what the complications are regarding what neurological elements are shared. That might have been helpful understanding why they were not separated and what might have happened to the twins leading to their deaths.
I have an HP Stream 11 that I want to use for word processing and some light web browsing - I’m a writer and it’s a lightweight laptop to bring to the library or coffee shop to write on. Right now it’s got Windows and it’s unusable due to lack of hard drive space for updates. Someone had luck with Xubuntu, but it’s...
I’m curious how software can be created and evolve over time. I’m afraid that at some point, we’ll realize there are issues with the software we’re using that can only be remedied by massive changes or a complete rewrite....
We needed a new X with some of the archaic crap removed. I.e. no one needs X primitives anymore, everything is its own raster now (or whatever it’s called).
Evolving X would have given us incremental improvements over time… Eventually resulting in something like Wayland.
