1/ In what may be a bizarre case of mistaken identity, the Russian FSB has killed a group of Russian people it claims are pro-Ukrainian saboteurs – but who reportedly appear to be Airsoft enthusiasts who were engaged in live-action roleplay of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video games. ⬇️

What can Norwegian Black Metal albums teach us about strategy? Black metal album covers are darker than other metal albums, but followed the same color trends. The goal is to be distinctive, but not too much, allowing you to fit into a recognizable category while standing out.

pay attention to how architecture makes you feel. hideous cookie-cutter structures are intended to subdue the imagination and extinguish the will. if we had more buildings like the one below, testosterone levels would skyrocket, and the antidepressant industry would rot.

Was just reminded of how the navy seals that the raid on bin laden all ended up writing their own contradictory novels about how it went down and I'm cracking up at the idea of adapting them all as one movie told in the style of Rashomon

I created a public @RiskIQ project with domains and IP addresses which @citizenlab has linked to Pegasus infrastructure over the years. Sadly no way to indicate a timeframe for each of the entries. community.riskiq.com/projects/c345b…
