I think I might need medical assistance after how intensely I just rolled my eyes and groaned.

I thought that this sounded ominous for a minute. Then I remembered that government projects like this are designed to have a chilling effect on activity that they cannot monitor, understand or enforce by their very existence and not by being actual potent tools to combat it (i.e. paper tiger). More likely this thing will become a money pit that contractors can use as a sandbox project to allow their employees to play in for implementation of IP that may be works-in-progress for future projects that may be useful, but are just lofty concepts that have no basis in reality. 17 contracting teams is about 15-16 too many hands in the cookie jar for this to be anything more than a Men In Black-wannabe training camp or a glorified propaganda project, most likely both.

I can't find my AKM with a giggle-switch, either.

The TOR bundle Isn't so much a tool for anonymity, which it can grant as long as you are careful (much like a virtual mask or avatar) as it ia digital cloak of privacy. This aspect is important to distinguish for people struggling to understand the hows and whys governing the role of TOR and dark web meshes. The ideal state one would want once inside would be both disguised and cloaked i. E. anonymous and private.

I can tell everyone with certainty that dark web markerplaces are all bogus and they shouldn't even bother lookimg. You'll just get lots of malware, infested with botnets and get your identity stolen. Here be dragons, abandon all hope ye who enter. Bitcoins are a pyramid scheme and also might carry the measles virus. Basically really nothing to talk about if you know what I mean.

One of the original "Amazon review comedy" classics. There is also the Diamond Encrusted Flash Drive one I cant locate, or most any real Monster Cables review.

I'd mod this up if I could, since entropy is how we measure time...relative to anything, classically or on the quantum level...this hypothesis seems to not meet any requirements to be valid for either system or logic.

As opposed to mass surveillance AND the destruction of the economy, loss of protections from those with money and power and the misery of bad policies they create, which is happening now?

...the blood of patriots and tyrants.

You throw me the idol!

Yeah, I was wondering about it maybe being magnetic because of the weird AM band disturbances...I even got some small spikes on my SDR way down into the ELF band where there isn't ever anything. The K garlicy smell was wild, too.

Where are you located? Sounds like we might be neighbors.

I'm right here in Walla Walla County and I can say that I noticed odd things beginning the night before last following one of the warmest chinooks I can remember in my life, it reached 72 F outside my house after being in the low 30s under 12 hours before. Within hours after that began, odd AM radio reception disturbances that came and went in waves from total static to unbelievably good and seemingly overpowered sometimes within seconds and other times over maybe 15 minutes started. I noticed an odd metallic aftertaste when I woke up the next morning (unlike blood or iron), all of these things happened before I even knew any of this was going on. I do a little playing around with software defined radio and radio telescopy/aircraft communication apps and I saw readings that lit up whole areas very high up nor could I receive any plane comms which was pretty unusual.

The volcanic ash story seems pretty specious to me, I'm more inclined to believe the TIME hypothesis of wildfire ash because the chinook was very abrupt and warm, I can grasp how an odd temperature inversion in such a short amount of time along with high speed winds might pick up heavier ash particles that wouldn't normally travel, lift them up very high, then drop them over my area. Volcanic ash doesn't travel large distances and drop suddenly in a small area all at once. Even if it did, I would think that there would have been much, much more present. This stuff in the rain was also not at pulverized as volcanic ash, I still have a vial of Mt. St. Helens' ash my parents gathered nearby from when I was really young. This stuff was also a good deal darker. I can say that it does not smell like soot, it has a faint metallic/garlic one but it doesn't permeate the area like I'd think it would. Just wanted to give a "man-on-the-ground" report for my fellow /.ers.

I think you mean the Yamato...but still a good idea.
