In our case, other than network switches and routers, Syslog is the log of record and Splunk runs on all the VMs. Splunk isn’t forwarding syslog itself

I’ve built custom Prometheus metrics very easily and had node exporter pick up the .prom files. Python and bash scripts reading and translating. Node exporter runs on my Prometheus server next to Blackbox Exporter. Blackbox Exporter handles

RFC 3986 treats %2F as a reserved character that behavior becomes app specific.

Okay it sounds definitely regional/State specific. Some states are more flexible such as counting work hours towards volunteer hours and allowing ACT/SAT/alternatives.

I was not on this flight but another one during this time on Monday (Delta flight out of ATL). Delta came on the intercom and was directed to reboot WiFi and screens across their fleet. Maybe unrelated but seems coincidental

It’s interesting that the license says “You may not distribute or publish the software or Derivative Works.” There is now a published GitHub of a derivative work.

I get what you are saying but one aircraft loss doesn’t constitute loss of air superiority. The way I see it you are inferring “US abandoned air superiority” from losses and reduced sortie generation. That may be your assessment, but it isn

That’s true. China dominates globally but I found that the US installed European and Japanese models. There is a big supply chain concern and set of reviews happening all across the entire government sector. Energy is a national security co

70% figure isn’t dependence on foreign oil for 70% of our consumption. The US both imports and exports huge amounts of petroleum. And most US crude imports come from Canada, not the Middle East. If the Middle East suddenly stopped it would

For onshore wind, probably wind. For offshore wind, not nearly as clear. The US still lacks a lot of the specialized vessels, ports and manufacturing capacity. Solar has bigger upstream dependence on Asian wafer/cell production.

by firesteelrain 3mo ago
I disagree. The US is the largest producer of oil and natural gas in the world. We’re also a net energy exporter. We import some crude because our refineries are set up for it. That’s a long way from being “entirely reliant” on foreign fuel

It was a win for the US military. I agree the political objective ultimately failed. My point is that political failure is not the same thing as military defeat. The US withdrew; South Vietnam was defeated two years later.

by firesteelrain 3mo ago
That establishes that North Vietnam defeated South Vietnam. It doesn’t establish that North Vietnam defeated the US military.

That’s a lot of assertions, but none demonstrate Iran denied US air operations. You’re describing increased friction, not loss of air superiority.

by firesteelrain 3mo ago
You’re moving the goalposts. First it was missile attacks on bases, now it’s logistics and refueling. Those influence air operations, but they aren’t the definition of air superiority. Also, “multiple US jet shootdowns” is an extraordinary

Again, the US ceased combat operations in 1973; the Republic of Vietnam fell in 1975.
