Paranoea posted:Thanks for the GLSDB analysis, everyone. I went and checked, and I probably misremembered some wishcasting from Defmon a few months back. Also, the Sweden thing was because of the Saab in Saab-Boeing, while I completely forgot Boeing was involved. *cough* So, I guess it's still several months away until we see these kinds of booms. There was some speculation that small amounts could be delivered in April, but the details were pretty vague...

WarpedLichen posted:I don't really know anything about the pro-Russian bloggers, is this a Strelkov type figure who is critical of the Russian MOD or some hard-right guy? Analogous to the attack on Dugin? Considerably less pseudo-intellectualism: https://mobile.twitter.com/yarotrof/status/1642562394298646531 (Also unlike the attack on Dugin this one is more likely to have hurt random bystanders, unless the cafe was closed to the public for the event).

Dick Ripple posted:The real question is why would someone risk leaking Top Secret/Classified documents that are just calculated losses and a pretty looking month old situation report. Could someone be so stupid? Probably. But there is nothing spicy enough in there to risk going to jail for. Maybe if 4chan dude livestreams the FBI knocking down his doors we will know the true answer. There is more than that... Another one seems to list what units are receiving what equipment and when. (And there is also a mud map/calendar...). Both are pages seem to just be "secret", which seems odd in two different ways.

Don't know who this is, but text seems vaguely consistent with my attempts of reading the Polish text with my poor Ukrainian: https://mobile.twitter.com/Jeff21461/status/1644364129019260929 ... at any rate, I wish something like this were done for production a year ago....

And even earlier source: https://twitter.com/AricToler/status/1644382617381240846 ... Though this doesn't identify it. Also I am not sure if it's worse to post US docs of this nature for an American or for someone with "polski" in his name.... Edit: https://twitter.com/AricToler/status/1644385195238227982 This seems to have non-Ukraine-related stuff? OddObserver fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Apr 7, 2023 |

On that note, WSJ has a very good article detailing what's known: subject matter of documents, where they came from, official responses, etc: https://mobile.twitter.com/yarotrof/status/1644459346200256512 quote:In addition to documents pertaining to the war in Ukraine, the leaked files included purported copies of the daily intelligence report provided to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Mark Milley, Central Intelligence Agency reports on leaders of Israel’s Mossad spy service, and intelligence on discussions within the government of South Korea on sales of artillery ammunition to Kyiv. Most of the documents are dated in February and appear to have been posted online shortly after their creation. Many contain details of future operations. Edit: I am not sure they accurately portay document travel racist discord -> meme discord -> Minecraft map discord, but that's probably not that important for the topics covered....

Ynglaur posted:I seriously wonder if this leak is someone bringing stuff home they shouldn't have, and a kid getting ahold of it and trying to score cool points online. If it is, they have been doing that for a long time. Trad Orthodox also sounds like a convert, so less likely to be a kid-kid. Edit: on second thought, it was apparently reposted from the racist server to the meme server by a kid, so maybe my expectations are out of whack.

Bar Ran Dun posted:Yes some versions are modified. To be more specific, there is an obvious poorly done alteration of at least one document that has happened somewhere in the Russian internet space that's not present in the earlier leaks of that same document. There is no obvious indication that those earlier leaks were altered, but it's not like normal people have originals to compare against. Some photos were taken with a bottle of paper glue in background, but I don't think the use of that would be invisible...

I dont know posted:If you are spying for a foreign power, you might get smuggled out of the country. If you are leaking for ideological reasons, you might score a presidential pardon from a sympathetic lame duck. No one is going to help someone trying to impress bored, teenage white supremacists. If he gets to Russia he probably has a TV guest gig waiting for him. Good chance he gets arrested in Bulgaria or something, though.

Antigravitas posted:It's TYOOL 2023 and it certainly feels from my work that it hasn't really set in just how incredibly far-reaching Sysadmin-Level access is and how much responsibility and power lies in that role. And because management typically doesn't care about computer stuff it becomes a huge liability with basically no supervision.

It's just the nature of the job that you need access to everything. Edit: to elaborate: yes, it's probably impossible to make the chief sysadmin unable to access data, but it doesn't mean a random kid whose job is to make sure the router is plugged in right should be able to read the Dense Secretary's daily briefing.

I feel obligated to point out that someone has remarked on how інцелпостінг is comprehensible in Ukrainian (sadly can't find whom to credit), which really shows the influence of US cultural stuff (as do things like Ukrainian, or for that matter, Russian, rappers). I do wonder to what extent this happens in countries with lower familiarity with English, though.

FMguru posted:It's damage control for China's ambassador to France saying in a TV interview that none of the post-Soviet breakaway nations (Estonia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, etc.) aren't actually sovereign nations. The hilarious part is that it technically applies equivalently to Russia (if not more so...?) P.S. Get Russia out of Kazakhstan's permanent UNSC seat! Edit: and the Baltic position, which US theoretically recognized, but blatantly acted against when it came time for independence, was that they were never legally part of USSR in the first place, but rather under occupation.
