Qatar Minster of education Lolwah bint Rashid Al Khater to the US: “…we just need you to leave us alone. To stop igniting wars so that weapons’ companies can make more money. We need you to Stop Bombing Schools, to stop trafficking and raping little kids.”
This directly contradicts Trump and Hegseth’s claims that Iran bombed the area where the Iranian school was hit. We knew it, but it’s good to have the video.
New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

Doorway in Volterra, with an enticing glimpse into a courtyard.
One of many in hilltop walled town in Tuscany that's been occupied since C8 BC.
Es hat seinen Grund, warum die Physikfakultät im Gegensatz zum Rest Belgiens QWERTY-Tastaturen verwendete. FORTRAN auf AZERTY zu programmieren ist... mühsam.
An older trailer model of the Belgian transport company Van de Poel was used to hide Iranian missile launchers in Iraq.
New photo of the Russian LNG tanker Arctic Metagaz, which suffered a massive explosion in the Mediterranean early yesterday.
1/x What we have to watch now is if the other companies come with a "buy back" option. It seems that Lloyd's has been blindsided by the start of the war which is unprecedented. It is no secret that Lloyd's, besides having a very competent intelligence service, has a pipeline to and from MI6.
French helicopters assisted Belgian Special Forces to board the MT Ethera. MT Ethera is flying a false flag, which is in violation of international maritime law. As such Belgium has the right to board as per international law. MT Ethera has been brought in to the port of Zeebrugge

There's a "is anyone even reading this" sort of honesty you get in the software update release notes from a project that's been around for a long time.

Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.
1/ Russia may be preparing to announce a mass mobilisation, a bad peace deal with the US, or confiscate people's savings to fund the war effort, according to Russian warbloggers. They suspect that the government wants to ban Telegram to block public dissent over such moves. ⬇️
For context, there are basically only three hard drive manufacturers in the world. So two of the three are out for the year. Good luck buying anything computer for the foreseeable future.
Sometimes only a part of a ship is launched. Flotation tests are performed on individual pieces and then the vessel gets assembled. This on the @Fincantieri shipyard in Castellammare di Stabia. The Regio Cantiere di Castellammare di Stabia was founded in 1783.
Oh no... not her favorite blankey
Emmy Noether was arguably more important for physics than Einstein.
Poincare or someone else would have fully discovered relativity later that year, but anyone other than Noether being able to literally pull the laws of physics right out of abstract algebra would have been unlikely.
This seems like a stupid hill for the IOC to die on
It's interesting that Fallout, which began in 1997 (which was 29 years ago btw) depicted Vault-Tec in a way that you simply can't do after seeing the last quarter century of Epstein-adjacent billionaire freaks completely annihilate the cold war idea of malicious competence.
While this absolutely sucks, we are going to see a lot more places implementing universal global age verification over this next year, because the number of states and countries legally requiring it has gotten to the point no one can keep up anymore.
GM: Charisma check.

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot.
I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

1/x OK. First of all, let's explain what AIS is. AIS is an Automatic Identification System for ships. It's like a transponder unit transmitting position, identification and some navigational parameters (course, speed, ...) #maritimenews
Marine Le Pen is funded by Russia.
"meeting yesterday with the French right wingers, including Le Pen, her husband, about refinancing the National Front Party because apparently a good part of their money comes from Russia. Two thoughts here, these guy seemed like idiots, pure Ruritania"
