You misunderstand: He wants Ukraine to stop hitting Russian oil infrastructure. It never applied the other way around.

they are the size of a small horse

Translation: These dudes are big as hell. Lone pictures never do them justice. Comparison.

They remade fy_pool_day too! <3

Yeah, I know about the blockade on documents. This was an issue even in 2015 when I was there. I’m one of the people who trained Serbian journalists how to gather and leak data ;)

That N1 article reads like a speculative opinion piece. But Serbian isn’t my first language and I’m not up-to-date on all of the nuances of EU-Serbia relations so I can’t really comment there. I’ll just say Serbia need to do what’s best for Serbia.

PS - I don’t know if you caught my edit in my previous post. I found the source of that Genasys rumor, it’s disinformation ;)

Edit: Forgot to mention, I’m looking into that Direktno.rs article now and seeing what I can verify. Which is tough with the document blockade as you mentioned.

Edit 2: Not finding anything linking Jugoimport & Romax directly to Genasys. Literally everything I find is linking back to the same article you linked, which sadly doesn’t contain anything concrete. I’ve found a few pictures and videos of vehicles that have dishes on top them (the Porsche pics made me laugh.) But nothing confirming they’re Genasys or even actual LRADs and their shape/profile don’t match any of the Genasys systems.

word on the street was it’s Genasys gear

Exactly. I’m not a huge fan of rumors and this is the only thing I can find directly linking Genasys and Serbia - at all. Which references Direktno.rs as their source, but I can’t that info anywhere on their site. The article you linked doesn’t even mention them directly.

Just a protip: If someone is finger pointing (at Genasys or anyone) without actual proof (documentation, pictures, etc.) just ignore it, it’s probably bullshit. Stay focused on the on the prize and taking down YOUR corrupt officials, don’t let anyone divide the group.

Edit: Yup, this rumor was started by Russian disinformation bots here and here. With their “source” being a screenshot from another, unverifiable social media post.

I’m not saying they got it from Russia either, I’m saying that the Serbian govt. can make LRADs themselves. And they (Russia and their supporters) will try to use incidents like this as propaganda to divide the people by spreading an anti-western sentiment (eg. “testing gear for the yanks or whoever”). It’s standard procedure for the Russians and their allies. Disinformation is their biggest stick right now.

Also, I’m not finding anything about Serbia acquiring LRAD systems from Europe, the US or Russia. Just conjecture from a handful of smaller websites. Because again, Serbia can just make their own. They’re not complicated or expensive to make.

LRAD isn’t some super fancy tech. Don’t let them use this to spread anti-western bullshit and divide the movement. This is what Putin and his cronies want.

As someone who worked with the CryptoParty and trained Serbian journalists on OpSec and InfoSec, despite being surrounded by minders the entire time I was there, this makes me extremely happy! Keep up the pressure homies!

Mad.

Edit: They’ve edited both of their previous posts to re-frame the argument after the fact and removed a personal attack. Classy.

See my previous post…

It’s better to be safe than sorry is all I’m saying.

Also 3 separate cases have been posted above. Just continue ignoring those, I guess.

My brother and a buddy both have Alexas. And yeah, I hate being anywhere near the thing.

If no proof is offered (in either direction), then the proposition can be called unproven, undecided, inconclusive, an open problem or a conjecture.

Stating that you don’t think that it’s possible is irrelevant. It’s either happening or it isn’t. True or false. P or ¬P.

is extremely unlikely to be true in my opinion.

Is an argument from ignorance. Not trying to be rude, but this is basic logic.

Yeah, but it’s rooted and running a custom ROM ;)

This is why jailbreaking/rooting your phone is so important.

It’s better to be safe than sorry is all I’m saying.

Edit: There’s also this.

This has always blown my mind. Watching people willingly allow Big Brother-esque devices into their home for very, very minor conveniences like turning on some gimmicky multi-colored light bulbs. Now they’re literally using home “security” cameras that store everything on some random cloud server. I’ll truly never understand.

The first rule of Usenet is: You don’t speak of Usenet. They like being kept off the radar, but braggers can’t help but bring it up every opportunity they get.

Exactly, removing birthright citizenship should only be possible through a constitutional convention. It’s not up to SCOTUS what parts of the constitution we do and don’t recognize.

You should check out the NEO Surveyor mission. Planned launch is in 2027 :)

I’m guessing it would depend on how early they’re detected. I’m not involved in planning or anything, just putting what I know about them out there. But yes, they would be who NASA calls when they find something.

I know they were involved in the DART mission. With the satellites used being launched and operated out of Vandenberg, a Space Force base.
