this reuters article is one.
the problem is that all public news articles will be sketchy this early in the game. most relevant information is still classified and not available yet.
Did they have intel that Pakistan was actually involved in a tourist attack or is this assumption?
EDIT: to clarify, pakistan itself is not involved on the killing of tourists, but there is evidence to support that the group that did kill the tourists have complete patronage of pakistan’s army and government and are shielded by them.
the intel or its source is not shared publicly yet, though. nobody can say for sure why it hasn’t been shared yet but the conjecture is that it’s to protect a sensitive set of sources based in pakistan from retaliation.
india has put itself on the backfoot. fighting this war is like trying to wrestle with a pig–india will only muddy itself while the pig loves it. they wouldn’t put themselves in such a position unless there was compelling evidence to do so.
separately, this isn’t the first attack on indian civilians by members of groups sheltered in pakistan by all their official and legal machinery. this isn’t even the first successful such attack.
these attacks are akin to the september 11 attacks on the twin towers (in that innocent civilians are targeted by a deeply planned and coordinated attack with the sole aim to spread fear and terror). and that was reason enough for the usa to conduct an operation in pakistan’s heartland to “get” osama (who himself was sheltered by the same people in pakistan’s army and government).
Proponents say detailed demographic information is crucial for the targeted implementation of India’s social justice programmes, including earmarking nearly half of all university seats and government jobs for socially disadvantaged communities.
some context: people of all the “lower” (sic) castes receive special privileges in the form of reservations for university and government jobs, as well as financial incentives to foster greater equity in society.
the purpose of such a census is to understand how best to administer such programs (rather than perpetuating the social ills of the caste system).
this is the AI model that truly passes the Turing Test.
what even rhymes with “luigi”?
blue squeegee?
they weren’t feeling lucky?
awesome! so there is scope to literally piss all over AI! where does one sign up?
why can’t they use piss, instead, though?
years ago, i came across the phrase “resting bitch face” online somewhere. i don’t know in what context i read it or where, but i do remember being utterly confused by the concept. like, what even is that phrase supposed to mean?!
and that consternation had only deepened and strengthened right up to the recent past when photos of jd vance began to surface. now it’s 100% clear what the author of that long-forgotten post must have meant when they typed out those three little words.
because people can’t misuse laws for pet euthanasia in order to get an early inheritance, or to get their toe in before a will changes.
in many scenarios, euthanasia does make sense but there is ample opportunity for greedy people to misuse such laws. it would be hazardous to enact such a law unless adequate protection is provided.
is this our timeline’s version of “there are no atheists in foxholes”?
what? and ban all flights to australia?
fucking humans!
no, concrete wall.
wow, premium in the usa is expensive. it’s a little under $3 per month here in india for the family plan and even that’s after a recent 16% hike. the individual plan is even cheaper.
i guess these rates are in store for us as well in the future?
if niger is 25m and nigeria is 230m, then it follows that the “ia” suffix is 205m by itself.
so you’re saying that there’s a possibility that some of those email messages i receive from nigerian widows looking for a partner to launder money out of the country are real?
the employee, from Walker, Michigan, allegedly stabbed the company president in the side during a staff meeting.
see, he should have known that, in meetings, it’s bullet points that are more acceptable.
that doesn’t add up. did they mean 00:30 GMT?
