It’s a bot

There was absolutely nothing specifically naming Mr Kaplan afaik. It was just those slogans in his bio.

Here is where they accused MrKaplan of zionism

Why would you leave out the bit where they called MrKaplan a zionist?

If someone said “Murder all Martians. Rimu is a martian.” and then we spend hours debating whether it’s ok to kill martians or not then that would be a waste of time. Because I am not a martian. Obviously there are situations where murdering Martians can be justified - the problem is someone calling for me to be killed based on made-up bullshit. Let’s talk about that.

The current admins continue to vigorously defend the admin who resigned.

Gulf War 3

In tropical countries I carry an umbrella everywhere. It’s much better than a hat because it has more airflow and provides more shade.

This addresses some really difficult and long-standing problems and I really look forward to seeing the result.

I’ve had my eye on FIRES for some time and this funding will take it from fringe niche thing to the big time.

I’ve noticed a lot of those big-in-microblogging folks have figured out what gives viral among their audience and just keep repeating it over and over in different forms.

Why? Hooked on the validation? It doesn’t seem healthy.

No I’m just saying you might as well give up on that dream - the regime will have more support than ever, now.

help the Iranians overthrow the despots

The time to do that was before bombing hundreds of Iranian children. And civilian infrastructure. Way too late now.

Lol

A very entertaining read. I’m completely unsurprised, based on my experience trying to use Azure. Garbage platform.

And now they’re hacking on that shitshow with CoPilot. Jesus wept.

I am very surprised that Australia and New Zealand did not wean themselves off fossil fuels decades ago, given they are developed countries with wealth and skills and democracy.

After everything that has happened, Iran cannot trust any deals.

Iran will not reopen the strait until the whole world knows that attacking Iran is not worth it. They need to inflict enough pain so that decades from now future US presidents remember what happened.

We are a long way from that.

If you installed or updated Claude Code via npm on March 31, 2026, between 00:21 and 03:29 UTC, you may have inadvertently pulled in a malicious version of axios (1.14.1 or 0.30.4) that contains a Remote Access Trojan (RAT). You should immediately search your project lockfiles (package-lock.json, yarn.lock, or bun.lockb) for these specific versions or the dependency plain-crypto-js. If found, treat the host machine as fully compromised, rotate all secrets, and perform a clean OS reinstallation.

Lol 😂

It’d stop them launching ships to lay mines, or launching midget submarines and naval drones, which is a start. It might keep the Iranians too busy fighting on land to aim at ships. It’d basically be an open wound for USA though - completely unsustainable.

Then there’s the fantasy of naval escorts for tankers. Each tanker would require a couple of ships to shadow them (anti-air, anti-sub, anti-drone) for the entire length of the gulf (not just the strait) and in normal times 120 tankers pass through there every day. You’d need a fleet ~400 ships strong, running 24/7 (no repairs or rest). And it only takes one hit from an anti-ship missile and hundreds of sailors die. So that ain’t happening.

To do that they’d need to occupy 1000+ kms of extremely rugged coast. That’s quite a commitment…
