Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

You don’t have to like this guy‘s politics to recognize that everyone who has insisted for decades that The Issues are almost all too complicated and too nuanced to explain to voters let alone address was lying to you.

"The shared-room model promotes camaraderie and small-unit leadership..." I'll tell you what the shared-room model promotes: 1. Cost savings on facilities. 2. Ill-advised marriages to escape the barracks.

S-400 makes sense for Türkiye because they really only have to worry about Russian planes and S-400s are good at shooting them down.

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

Hackers Simply Asked Meta AI to Give Them Access to High-Profile Instagram Accounts. It Worked
The exploit shows the extreme risk of offloading technical support to AI.

This is what defines a professional military—not bullshit about “lethality” or “meat eaters” or jerking off to kill cams, but some unnamed enlisted person who day after day made sure the ejection seat they were responsible for met the standard so that when it mattered, it worked.
