With his in mind, Gray decided to use one of NECA’s awesome life-size facehugger props to increase the coolness factor of his mask thenfold.

Dawncloack posted:I speak foreign. Can you help me parse? ^^^^^ He uses a special breathing mask to help him sleep at night. To make it more interesting he added a model prop to the front of the mask. This prop is from a movie where creepy aliens attach to your face, gently caress it and implant alien babys in your stomach. This is disturbing.

the loving root cert  seriously just draw and quarter every C level at Facebook at this point. alex stamos already left the company a few years back, so don’t worry too much. IN COMPLETELY UNRELATED NEWS Facebook just hired a handful of its toughest privacy critics https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/01/facebook-just-hired-a-handful-of-its-toughest-privacy-critics/

https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-spying-raven/quote:Stroud had been recruited by a Maryland cybersecurity contractor to help the Emiratis launch hacking operations, and for three years, she thrived in the job. But in 2016, the Emiratis moved Project Raven to a UAE cybersecurity firm named DarkMatter. Before long, Stroud and other Americans involved in the effort say they saw the mission cross a red line: targeting fellow Americans for surveillance. Nice that that's the red line.

It's loving evil. If you're late with the rent, they automatically cover it and you're on the hook for it. They'll also loan you the deposit up front, so you're never not in hock to them. It's great from the pov of the landlord because you don't have to do anything but collect the monthly payment.

The whole article is filled with gems like the the secret list for American targets was called the "white category" and quotes likequote:Some days it was hard to swallow, like [when you target] a 16-year-old kid on Twitter. But it’s an intelligence mission, you are an intelligence operative. I never made it personal.” quote:Stroud said her background as an intelligence operative made her comfortable with human rights targets as long as they weren’t Americans. “We’re working on behalf of this country’s government, and they have specific intelligence objectives which differ from the U.S., and understandably so,” Stroud said. “You live with it.”

Raven is “the offensive, operational division of NESA and will never be acknowledged to the general public,” the Black memo says. NESA was the UAE’s version of the NSA.

Australia has a problem with dryland salinity. Basically cutting down vast forests and planting wheat caused the water table to creep around and bring salt to the surface which is generally regarded as bad. One answer was to dig huge canals that would draw away the salty water and at the same time replant the forests which would pull the water table back down and over time the salt with it. Then the final piece was to cut down parts of the forest and bury the trees in the now dry canals as a form of carbon sequestration to buy carbon credits as a way of compensating farmers for the loss of otherwise soon to be worthless land. It sounds dumb as hell but it would probably work over time. Instead they went with the far more sensible option of ignoring the problem as more and more land becomes a salt encrusted wasteland. Thanks for reading.
