Noteably their crawler script captures most of the forums, just not things like LF, BYOB, and FYAD. And a lot of the forums pages are behind the login wall, which you obviously cant use since its a snapshot and not the real forums.

Trump has been more nuts on twitter today than usual.

This explains it.

https://twitter.com/MLevineReports/status/932429886047780864

quote:

Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team investigating whether President Donald Trump sought to obstruct a federal inquiry into connections between his presidential campaign and Russian operatives has now directed the Justice Department to turn over a broad array of documents, ABC News has learned.

In particular, Mueller's investigators are keen to obtain emails related to the firing of FBI Director James Comey and the earlier decision of Attorney General Jeff Sessions to recuse himself from the entire matter, according to a source who has not seen the specific request but was told about it.

Issued within the past month, the directive marks the special counsel's first records request to the Justice Department, and it means Mueller is now demanding documents from the department overseeing his investigation.

Special Investigators/Councils/Prosecutors generally go wherever they want and investigate whatever they please. Remember that Ken Starr got started investigating Vince Foster and Whitewater and ended up writing a lurid report about Bill Clinton getting his dick sucked in the Oval Office.

“We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”
Why is the US Military so loving dumb when it comes to punishing everybody when one dude fucks up.

One dude does something irresponsible so let’s gently caress over thousands of other people that aren’t doing anything wrong.

Safety briefs about alcohol? Do they seriously loving think there is somebody in the military that doesn’t know drinking and driving is bad?

Soldiers get DUIs because they’re loving stupid, not because they don’t know drinking and driving is bad. One more safety brief beating a dead horse won’t stop someone from getting a DUI and killing someone.

There was a poster that talked about OPSEC where they photoshopped a 240B *or 249* with portable USB drives in place of ammo on the link ammunition.

That taught me a lot about the capability of the militaries automatic weapons and their ability to fire different caliber rounds, be it 5.56, 7.62 or 10GB flash drives.
