Theres a very large 3rd party armored car industry. Low key cars are very common. I dont know if this was or not, that image looks like it wasn't or was real cheap.

Precedent? Hi, welcome to planet Earth. We humans are literally the most dangerous organism on this planet. After we perfected murdering other animals with spears and arrows, we took to killing each other. That got boring so we started bori

Yea, it's still cheaper, faster and easier to use a 12 man hunter/killer team of knuckle draggers or even crayon munchers than to use what's described in the article. When Israel bombed a heavy water facility in Iran, they di

Fair, but ap 9mms aren't that bad. Also, I'm just laying down a template, I dont claim to have any insider info. We can even argue if their sidearms were Jerichos or P320s. I'm not too concerned on weapon specifics. It does l

Lol right? The system they're trying to convey is such a logistical and dev nightmare. Plus, it's also funny how the media likes to portray US and Israel intel agencies are either completely incompetent or omnipotent when it suits

Also, just like other specialty lics/certs, I want them to command much higher salaries. Increases the cost of even trying to exploit personal data. The company needs a real damn good reason to do so. Taxes, re-certs and randomized aud

Wtf? So you take the statement that we can recover and shouldn't believe in doomsday as let's just kill each other? What are you, a Stalinist? You realize the rhetoric of life being over as we know it is increasing suicide rates.

The us population in 1918 was about 100 million. It's now about 330m. We have 3 times plus the population since world war 1. 116k americans died in ww1 with a 100m population. 271k died of covid with a 330m population. One death is one

Being "well diversified" is subjective. But in freelance/contracting, the rule of thumb is to never have a customer account for more than 25% of your yearly income. You diversify your client base so when one walks away, it&#x
