these are infrared cameras

who would win: a multi-billion dollar pipeline or one little Iranian rocket boi?

Seizing the island, reopening the straight, etc might work in the short term, but can the US keep them that way in the long term. I read the US is spending 1B$ a day to fund this war. It is not sustainable.

Even if the US is willing to shoulder that cost, Iran will re-arm and undo any progress eventually. Look at Ukraine, its a constant back and forth.

They're adopting nuclear, not renewables.

No, they're "exploring" the possibility of considering it while they just passed a new law to encourage and subsidise gas usage and work around EU carbon markets.

ban both

woah this article sucks

As a Canadian I say this is absolute copium.

why not use rclone

Because icloudpd supports downloading photos from icloud and rclone does not (yet): https://github.com/rclone/rclone/pull/8734

"why not use rclone (?)"

This is the correct - and obvious - response to something like this.

Unfortunately, I believe that rclone has no support for iCloud photos at this time.

war is extrajudicial

America isn't at war.

Not even the "war" on drugs or "war" on terror? Semantic games aside, the precedent for the president engaging in military action without congress declaring war was broken decades before Trump.

I love me a good Tu Quoque defense. Keep em coming! I can't remember if we supported him cuz he wasn't the war candidate or we supported him cuz he was or if it even matters and we just make up bullshit excuses for what suits us at the time with whatever is convenient for the given argument...

So? We hated it then and we hate it now.

They surely need circus for the plebeians. /s

Tell that to the thousands of parents that lose a kid each year. This trash has to stop making it into the US.

Everyone talks about stopping drugs entering the border but no one talks about dismantling the extremely efficient logistic network that makes those drugs available in every corner of each major city.

I guess it’s easier to blow up random boats in the pacific than prosecuting corrupt officials but is it effective?

Why not do both?

Because it's un-American and murder to kill criminal suspects instead of trying them in a court of law.

We know it’s not justified because they aren’t enemy combatants.

One is illegal.

Losing a kid doesn't mean America is at war?

To cocaine? By "lose a kid" I assume you mean death and not some euphemism for addiction.

no
