Suppliers lie.
I know a guy who is the sole reason that software written by <adversary> isnt being currently used in <host countries most top secret defense environment>. His boss told him to lie if asked, and he refused to and informed <end user>.

Just like normal humans, then?
I wonder how many pager carriers were on planes at the time?
The violence of a Li-ion explosion is loosely correlated to the battery’s state of charge, so near flat batteries would just pop and fizzle. That would be a very unpredictable and inefficient strategy.
The splodey ones all came from the same batches that were bought by Hezbolla-linked companies and distributed by them to hezbolla members. They didnt just ‘upgrade’ every pager made by gold apollo. Only batches destined for Hez.
Of course, theres undoubtedly a lot of people who ended up with one of the booby trapped batch, who are just regular doctors, nurses, workers, etc, and theres no certainty that the person who was issued the pager was holding it at the time. Could have been their kid, or wife, or whatever, so the attack was still not very discriminate.
Viet Cong. Bad news. Never get out of the boat.
Omnipresent super-soakers full of paint will ensure they wont.
Dont let roombas learn how to use machineguns.
Zeus feared that with fire, humans would become powerful enough, maybe not to rival the gods, but certainly enough to stop fearing them so much, and to stop relying on them.
Zeus believed (rightly so) that humans who could master fire would undermine his power and control over them. This would be a threat to the stability of his rule over the pantheon.
He wasn’t a loving god, and he never really approved of us to begin with. We were just playthings for the gods, created from the earth, but animated by esssences from the gods (tears, sweat, blood, I dont fully remember) and made in their likeness, with big intellects and free will, but smaller, like dolls.
Then the gods started breeding with the humans and everything went completely to shit.
Use https://fallingfruit.org/ to get free, fresh food. Maybe once a week ill hit up the fruit trees and get a huge amount of free citrus, mangoes, almonds, loquats and fresh herbs (lemongrass, rosemary and lavendar mostly). There is also a ridiculous amount of olive trees on public land in my city, if I had the time and inclination to brine them properly I could probably make 20kg a week during the fruiting season. But I could never use or even give away that much olive.
I havent paid for limes, lemons, oranges or mandarins in years and I consume at least a couple kilos a week.
So many red lines crossed its starting to look like a red carpet.
This is bullshit. What we see as the moon is actually the earth, after the reptillians ruined it. What we live on is actually a domed space station orbiting the moon-earth.
We didnt go to the moon, we went back to the moon.
I make no promises.
Ok so the orcas are the navy, eagles are the air force, otters are obviously the marines.
Find a new job.
Statistically, we need more bad guys with guns, to stop themselves.
At sea level. Welcome to La Paz, where the triple point is made up and the freezing point doesn’t matter!
I like it when they are circling a question where the answer is "Nobody knows yet.’ And when they get there I can hit 'em with the finishing move, “Maybe you’ll be the first person to find out!”
Hooks them every time.
