KKKLIP ART posted:I know the answer is “they’re dumb” but how can you try to entrap someone in a pedo ring if all of your bait is clearly above age and seemingly the guy was told she was 36 and looked age appropriate? This is the dumbest honeypot I think I’ve ever read about. it does note that "sarah" has a child, so i think the thinking is that the only reason a man would want to have any kind of romantic relationship with a 36 year old single mother is because he is a pedophile and wants to commit child abuse

from the 2023 dot&e report on gerald r ford on emalsquote:During FY23, DOT&E observed EMALS reliability remained consistent with recent developmental test (460 MCBOMF in FY21 and 614 MCBOMF in FY22). Despite engineering upgrades to hardware and software, reliability has not appreciably changed from prior years and reliance on off-ship technical support remains a challenge. As part of an effort to provide short- and long-term improvements to address EMALS reliability degraders, NAVAIR delivered a software update and upgraded all catapult position sensor blocks prior to CVN 78’s deployment and is continuing development on further improvements. Furthermore, a situational awareness display was added in the EMALS Maintenance Workstation that facilitates troubleshooting during operations. Additional details can be found in DOT&E’s classified EFR. and sortie generation quote:In FY23, CVN 78 conducted almost as many flight operations (as measured by the number of aircraft launch and recoveries) as it had in the previous five years combined since commissioning. From the first arrested landing on CVN 78 in July 2017 until the end of FY22, CVN 78 had conducted 10,826 arrested landings. In FY23 alone, CVN 78 conducted 9,266 arrested landings. The reliability and maintainability of CVN 78’s EMALS and AAG continue to adversely affect sortie generation and flight operations, which remains the greatest risk to demonstrating operational effectiveness and suitability in IOT&E. Despite these continuing reliability challenges, https://www.dote.osd.mil/Portals/97/pub/reports/FY2023/navy/2023cvn78.pdf?ver=P_MZ-w03KEk_gBALt1FjtQ%3d%3d

trump also used that line in a recent campaign ad that opened with the number of americans killed on 10/7. obviously one cannot conclusively prove what would happen if trump were president today instead of biden but his rhetoric at least is substantially more bloodthirsty and violent

there was an article (https://www.ft.com/content/537bc62e-500b-4316-89db-594590a56d4a) in the FT a few months ago where they talked to a hedge fund manager who has come around on sports gambling companies. it doesn't sound great!quote:Chanos closed his short after witnessing the growth in riskier forms of betting through which operators are able to boost margins because the odds are less transparent. These include in-game bets, proposition bets where gamblers wager on certain events happening and multi-string, accumulator bets. the apps make it so, so much easier to place prop bets, in-game bets, ridiculous parlays etc, which have terrible odds. sure prior to these apps it was possible to lay five leg parlays with your bookie, but now you can do it on your couch, in the middle of a game, trying to chase bad money. this stuff is especially bad if you look at sports coverage now, which frequently promotes exactly these kind of long-odds, opaque, lovely bets. eta: here (https://www.theringer.com/nfl/2024/2/9/24067121/super-bowl-prop-bets-betting-guide) is a stupid guide to placing bad bets on a prominent sports website, including endorsing a three leg parlay as "a good bet" that the writer "truly, genuinely believe will cash". and uhh it did not in fact cash! only correct leg was the george kittle under catches. bad bet. lobster shirt fucked around with this message at 17:12 on Feb 12, 2024 |

Shrecknet posted:I don't know what the Vig is exactly on sports betting but I imagine they're keeping just a fraction of that haul. the FT article i posted notes that sports books typically keep about five percent for "traditional" betting (over/unders, money line, stuff like that) but can make substantially more money with more opaque bets, which they promote, like in game wagers, parlays, and prop bets.

it would be interesting to know how many people gamble because they think they can make money off of it, as opposed to those who gamble for fun or due to being addicted (who probably started because they like the dopamine hit, i.e. gambling for fun).

I can't understand why you would ever make such an announcement informally and prematurely. https://abcnews.go.com/International/live-updates/israel-gaza-hamas-war/?id=107535302 quote:A senior Israeli political source told ABC News on Tuesday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was "surprised" by U.S. President Joe Biden's remarks that he was hopeful a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas could be in place "by next Monday." perhaps not an intentional rug pull but it absolutely does not sound like a done, or even close to done, deal

The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to preview the announcement, said the operation will not require that American troops be on the ground to build the pier that is intended to allow more shipments of food, medicine and other essential items.
