@ShadowWizardLoveZelda what's up? Have things settled down a bit?
@M.A.R. well, 331 missiles and UAVs were launched, so Iran calls this fact alone a win, and that it "seals the case". Not a single of those penetrated our defense system, we have 0 casualties so.... if Israel is smart, we should also call it a win, and put this back on low fire, until the next big clash.

The worst thing about all of this is it only takes once for things to spiral out of control.
But ego and future elections won't let that happen of course, so we'll launch our own attack, and begin endless cycle of attacks. :(
@M.A.R. exactly. ^
Everything has already been said. We should just link older chat messages
Mine is older, I win!

Agreed.

Now I need to find a way to work the phrase "barnacle offense" into a Tavern conversation.

Q: Where does my pee go when I flush at 35,000 ft?

Danny BeckettOne thing I guess a lot of people wonder is: what happens you flush the toilet in an aeroplane? Does it fall out the belly of the plane and disintegrate? :) A kiwi woman complains that "aeroplanes are taking a s**t on her driveway", beneath the flight path. Is there any way this might actuall...

If it wasn't a weekend I'd be surprised it was up so long
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda What? Our news media reported a 10-year old boy had either been severely injured or killed.
 
1 hour later…
13:39
@JourneymanGeek nah sometimes it sticks for hours on normal days, quite randomly.
@AndreasmovedtoCodidact last I read couple of hours ago severely injured. Not by a direct hit, rather the intercepting missile shards that fell to the ground.
And... not Israeli, so our primitive people don't count it anyway.
(she's part of the Bedouin tribe)
The Negev Bedouin (Arabic: بدو النقب, Badū an-Naqab; Hebrew: הבדואים בנגב‎, HaBedu'im BaNegev) are traditionally pastoral nomadic Arab tribes (Bedouin), who until the later part of the 19th century would wander between Saudi Arabia in the east and the Sinai Peninsula in the west. Today they live in the Negev region of Israel. The Bedouin tribes adhere to Islam.From 1858 during Ottoman rule, the Negev Bedouin underwent a process of sedentarization which accelerated after the founding of Israel. In the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, most resettled in neighbouring countries. With time, some started returning...
For some reason the attack was focused there, in the south area of Israel, and not in the center where it's more heavily populated.
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda some reports is they were trying to hit Dimona (which is dumb)
13:57
@JourneymanGeek ah... not sure it's dumb.
The Shimon Peres Negev Nuclear Research Center (Hebrew: קריה למחקר גרעיני – נגב ע"ש שמעון פרס, formerly the Negev Nuclear Research Center, sometimes unofficially referred to as the Dimona reactor) is an Israeli nuclear installation located in the Negev desert, about thirteen kilometers (eight miles) south-east of the city of Dimona. Construction began in 1958 and its heavy-water nuclear reactor became active sometime between 1962 and 1964. Israel claims that the nuclear reactor and research facility are for general "research purposes into atomic science", but the reactor has been involved in...
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda risk of regional fallout?
not smart
@JourneymanGeek nah, they're well aware chance for that is minimal, the defense there is x100 more tight. It's so they can tell themselves "We bombed their nuke reactor" and call it a win.
I think Hamas planned to take it over as well in October 7 attack, let's see...
hmm nothing official, just this for example, which make sense.
> Hamas planned 2nd wave of deep raids on October 7, including attack on Dimona where Israel’s nuclear reactor is located; other terror squads aimed to reach Shikma prison in Ashkelon to free jailed terrorists
If not for the few civilians and unorganized military forces that stopped them, they could very well have done that.
Now I wonder, what could have happened if they took over the reactor.
That can be a nice book. ;)
In theory, it's worth more than 1000 hostages, as they can threaten to blow it up, or even "just" to expose to the whole world exactly what's going on in there.
Anyway, let's hope things are back on low fire for now.
Yeah. The Dutch government just advised to not travel to the middle east. That didn't happen before :/. Please stay safe.
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda Everyone knows they make nukes there
14:43
@rene thanks!
@JourneymanGeek sure, but I mean exact numbers and kind of nukes, etc.
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda I don't think they'd be keeping them around there
@JourneymanGeek maybe not the nukes themselves, but plans, documents, etc.
there's probably a plan for that
Plan for 100 well armed terrorists coming to take over the reactor? Doubt it.
They're ready for 6-8, not 60-80
or a hostile military force
I mean, we allegedly have a plan for a nuclear incident
and we don't have any nukes
14:47
@JourneymanGeek ah, but that's exactly where everything failed: Israel did not consider Hamas to be/have a real military force.
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda ah, see, we vaguely assume everyone is out to get us
Except Johor
Johor is nice :D
@JourneymanGeek who is it?
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda the nearest malaysian state
their king has a habit of telling their government to knock it off when they're too belligerent
14:49
King? Thought world don't have actual kings anymore, except maybe honor title e.g. England.
Ah, and Jordan.
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda malaysia basically has a sultan a state except Penang and Malacca
Interesting. So it's going from father to son?
then they have a rotating monarchy. (They switch between them to be king of malaysia, not that the actual monarchy rotates)
well statewise, generally
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda there's a lot of monarchies actually, even absolute ones
15:29
@JourneymanGeek sure, I mean king as in old times, with crown and all. ;)
Don't think North Korea leader wear a crown, for example. Or does he?
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda There are currently 26 - see unofficialroyalty.com/…
16:31
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda dude, you live in the Middle East and you haven't heard of kings?

@Sha hey you remember Tim Post?
18:23
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda who huh what
@DavidPostill nice!
@M.A.R. well, technically we have a king too... lol D:
@Petəíŕd The Spring Wizard yeah, but that's random... why?
@V2Blast hi! Bit too late now, it was meant to draw you into Happy Hour. :-D
So while you're here, what's up?
18:44
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda I'll explain when you answer
19:15
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda Not much, having a good weekend. How about you?
@Petəíŕd The Spring Wizard but I did answer... the first word. (aka yes, I remember)
@V2Blast here we had blast of a weekend, literally! :P
Personally I'm still fine, the only actual effect the attack had is disrupting routine by aborting all activities, so kids are at home. Hopefully later this week things will get back to normal.
19:53
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda I'm glad you're safe, in fact, I'm glad everyone is safe in Israel!
20:07
@Marco thanks!
@Petəíŕd The Spring Wizard everyone remembers Tim Post
@M.A.R. even as Tiny Tim?
Maybe
That's a bit more blurry
Jan 6, 2014 at 9:35, by Flyk
@TimPost oh no, you renamed, and you still show as Tiny Tim, and I can't refresh, because I'll lose my ears
@M.A.R. no no, that is @rene, you should get your eyes checked.
hmm I wonder if @Shen pings?
Guess I can test with a 1 rep sock, but too lazy to look for its login details, my main sock has too much rep. :(

@ShadowWizardLoveZelda what do you mean, his avatar is perfectly clear
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda While you're at meta.stackexchange.com/questions/77834/…, can you please add the badge criteria FAQ as another target?
