yes. Porthos. Cynicism. Limit it and life gets horrible.
Fight it, and ye fail.
cynicism is to be enjoyed, like the warm wind blowing over your dying carcass on the tranquil battlefield.
booya!
now I am waiting for his DD214
I saw Zulu in that voicechat, and was getting my darn headset.
Never read the three musketeers. @Maw have we found out if he had crippling debt or just a not confirmed cancer diasgnosis?
Don't think so, not with like 4+ vehicles 2+ homes, an RV, and more.
Motive is a strange beast but in my mind money and health issues are final straw factors. Once a person is dead does HIPPA apply or can a medical professional confirm his diagnosis?
Generally the authorities can get this information with sufficient reason.
"For example, the Rule limits the type of information that covered entities may disclose to law enforcement, absent a warrant or other prior process, when law enforcement is seeking to identify or locate a suspect."
AKA: They're subject to warrants too.
But generally the law cannot give this info to the public.
Ok. Thank you.
The AT&T building on 2nd Avenue suffered significant damage in the blast. That facility includes connection points for regional internet services as well as local wireless, internet and video. In the hours that followed the explosion, our local service remained intact through temporary battery power. Unfortunately, a combination of the explosion and resulting water and fire damage took out a number of backup power generators intended to provide power to the batteries. That led to service disruptions across parts of Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama. More than 48 hours later, some customers are still experiencing outages. We know it is frustrating and we apologize for the inconvenience. We also thank you for your understanding. -AT&T statement
Explosion happened a fair bit further to the right than that picture shows.
I was going to post this...
It looks like the blast was almost centered on that louvered area of the building, we're I speculate the generator systems would be housed. The louver area could be one of the least blast resistive areas also.
Just over the radius of the explosion to the right.
...
Are people still saying the dude that this because of 5G?
...
It's like the center of the rightmost half of the AT&T building.
I know. I know this sounds bad. I just have to ask. Is it possible that this was just a test run to see how much damage could be done with a smallish bomb source? It knocked out phone and internet connection, people could not call 911, but what blows my mind is that some people are mad that card readers at retails stores are not working because they are internet based. Stores had to close because they could not process transactions. So could it be a test run to see how quickly things can adapt and how easily backup generators could be compromised? I read that they are having to pump water out if the area and that some of the backup generators stopped working.
Wasn't very small for one.
Hey, Hey, thanks for engaging! I would love to answer your post but I'm not sure what or who you are referring to when you say "guess" and "investigation".
How big was Timmy McVeigh's, in order of magnitude?
@Livingstone if you knew the specifications for the building one could likely calculate the amount of explosives required to do x amount of damage. It's an engineering problem.
Holy shut I haven’t seen that picture
That is not small at all
Oklahoma City
I asked poorly. I meant relative to this one, in orders of magnitude.
Oh. Ok.
2.3k kg of ANFO, iirc.
The Beirut embassy bombing was conjectured to be the largest conventional explosion ever engineered in human history.
And this one was like 100 kilos?
