    Simply the new digital security maxim.

None can be trusted and they are now quite capable of digitally destroying each other, not only directly by via the governments the strive to control. So companies trading with the US government will have to be US companies because the threat of catastrophic hacking is too high and software and hardware must be secured and audited.

Basically right up until the end, with the US navy waving it's dicks about trying to force the other ship to alter course regardless of international maritime law and then and only then, when they visibly new the other ship would not be able to take sufficient evasive action, did they in a panic attempt to alter course and failed, through incompetence upon a course set by swollen testicles and an erection.

    I don't know how idiots run a Navy but logic would demand a constant state of training, I would expect naval vessel to see and not be seen. Run courses to target and identify every ship they come across as training and to strive to not been seen ie shadowing patterns, this again as training. I would expect that the crew at all times keep full control of their vessel and that it would be impossible for any merchant vessel to ram them no matter how hard that merchant vessel tried.

    The final failure was steering but what led to that point was not, that was a purposeful exercise by the US Navy to force big dick authority upon all merchant vessels. Maybe the captain was too busy in his cabin having some getting off time during the stupid manoeuvre.

  15. Re:FIX: Re:Feels like stupid...or stale on Study Links Rapid Ice Sheet Melting With Distant Volcanic Eruptions (upi.com) · · Score: 1

    Nope you completely missed what it is about, why it seems hyperbolic to you. This is not about climate, this is about weather, there is a huge difference between the two. When you start trying to forecast weather extremes, compounding negative probability outcomes can become quite severe when expressed. Than the decision is whether or not to and to what extent to protect against those forecast severe weather outcomes. So how strong does a building need to be to survive a measured risk over time for a weather event. Now think about that, that pick the worst probable storm for a fifty year average (they have had worse but in any fifty year average, the likely worse will be this guess, what ever it is), so you build accordingly, move it, get hit by an average 1,000 year weather event, the day after you move in and you all die, kinda sucks, killed by probability gambles.

    So they are trying to forecast weather extremes, that can be generated under new climate conditions. So a typical band one, is what happens if a high temperature heat wave settles over the Russia perma frost, with very low wind for a long time, mass thawing out methane. Can enough methane be collected so as to become a fuel air explosion over tens of cubic kilometres, probably, how likely, hmm, well you'll have to do a whole bunch of measuring and calculations and climate modelling to 'guess' that with a reasonable degree of probable accuracy. Is it worth spending money on, well the risk, a fuel air explosion containing cubic kilometres of an explosive mix would be extraordinary destructive, so evaluating, working out likely warning signs and coming up with emergency techniques to diffuse the mix and push it bellow flammability would be wise. Because if that bomb went of just once, it would very likely trigger a series and do some pretty fucked up things with out atmosphere. This is a real risk because of changing climate and a build up of methane over thousands and thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years and that methane is now climatologically accessible to atmosphere and potentially a series of bloody big, really, really big, booms tied to weather extremes.

    You start looking at weather extreme to manage risk and that is a whole lot more difficult and is about real potential outcomes, that could occur next year, a decade from now, many decades away or never. Don't know until you do the research that Republicans really hate because no profit, you are just mitigating losses, extreme losses but greed driven stupidity never looks beyond it's own greed. So you say the risk is low but what happens when a methane cloud drifts over a major town and blows up destroying the town and killing most of the population and they say the risk was known and you did nothing, NOTHING (the survivors will probably want to kill you). So risk and probabilities, want to know, you need to do the research and all sorts of extreme will come out and you will tackle the most probable of the worst outcomes because the risk is so extreme (unlikely to happen but if it does totally catastrophic, so just in case).

    Well the information at hand. After the plane disappeared the phones still worked for a couple of days after, so definitely not underwater and close to a tower, so not in the seas either. The pilot had various training programs and a really odd one for landing at all places Diego Garcia. A plane was spotted not far from there flying really low and not much more came of that but airliners do not just wander about the place, expensive piece of kit and only so many. The only wreckage now found was bits of the plane, but unique bits in the way the would float in water, vertically and pretty much nothing visible above water, very hard to spot and nothing else publicly declared. Now those bits floated on set currents and where they ended indicates they did not come from where the searched in fact, somewhere in the Diego Garcia area, rather than any where near Australia. Now Australia plays with very, very long range over the horizon radar and they can see much further than they will ever claim and they should have been able to see that plane in the location they had searched and have been able to accurately locate where it went down, if it was there (not typical radar). Now put that all together and see how the bits fit. The plane went down, sounds like much closer to Diego Garcia (a US/UK spy plane and drone base, stolen from a native population who were dumped else where with nothing), the luggage did not get waterlogged and so someone must have picked it up and it must have ended up near a mobile phone tower and the only wreckage to show up was what would have been extremely difficult to find if you were purposefully cleaning it up using boats to pick up and drones to spot and of course you need lots of people for the clean up, dishonourable people with no integrity.

    So it kind of looks like based on the little evidence at hand, the pilot try to fly and land at Diego Garcia, was spotted by long range radar out of Australia who informed the US and the US shot it down when it got to Diego Garcia. The Australia government peeved in being caught up in the mess, demanded it be kept secret and set up a search side show to give the US time to clean up it's mess. So they grabbed the luggage floating on water but being the typical lead addled fuck wits they are forgot the mobile phones and brought them within range of the towers on the island and stored them in a shed until the luggage and the phones could be destroyed. Basically "when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth" http://philosiblog.com/2012/05....
