    Fear is the first step. I am not saying it IS an orchestrated attempt, but to  view simply say "NO ONE WOULD EVER DO THAT!"

    I understand. Based on what is currently released it seems like this guy has issues and did this himself. A few things, 1 you don't go for the head in an orchestrated attack to get support for yourself, 2 especially not with a semi auto(bolt actions are more accurate and typically have higher bullet velocity) 3 yes both side will try and use this to their advantage, though the side this was done agianst will have a large advantage.

    Bystanders? Yes, they do.

      Reveal hidden contents

     

    But in the face? No way. Fake attempts aim to the chest and belly, where a good bullet proof vest would take the hit, or in the arms of legs where the wound would not be fatal.

    This one was real.

    "Interesting" things are going to happen in the next months. Fasten your seat belts.

    (Your edit has a typo)

    But yes. I agree I was wrong about the bystander part. We'll need to prepare for a bumpy ride.

    I hate that things have deteriorated into such a state.. that I picture scenarios where some whackadoo is conditioning people with the purpose of escalation. As unlikely as that seems... I honestly think it possible. Let's take a few more liberties & justify eavesdropping.

    Even if its not some false flag That's a generally negative situation either way. 

    You don't shoot a bystander(actually you do) and yourself in the face for a false flag...

    I was testing out the circle to search / translate on my phone and it's getting scary good. The text is just off in size. Screenshot_20240711_144511_Google2.jpg?e

    Yeah, I'm fairly sure that most industries use metric in the US. I actually hate the imperic system with all of my soul because it's terrible, inconsistent, and metric is so much easier and everyone else uses it. Not to mention that we have to memorize conversions between the two units because metric is used pretty much anywhere that actually matters.

    Inches and feet are better than metric, pretty much nothing else is(I love base 12)

  6. We gotta make a bot to archive all this on the Internet archive or something. That'll well be easiest. Though posting won't be possible we can make another bit to scrape that just in case the forums go down soon.

    An idea, have it check every link on a page and dump it to the archive(I think they have an API) and the sequentially go through each link for sub links to archive. Though this would be reasorce intensive.

     

    According to http://archivebot.com/3 this site is currently being scraped. From my knowledge this seems to be official or semi official for smaller sites like this one.

    We gotta start scraping. Maybe we all find someone getting some drives and a cheap server to run the forums? Or get a subscription for AWS and rebuilding the forums? If they shut down of course.

    I think I'll try making a prototype for a continuation. If I succeed I'll post it on GitHub so people can help improve it and start a GoFundMe or something to get funding to host it. If I do start hosting I'll offer all current mods to moderate there too.
