mccMy Twitter account is currently locked and I don't look at it, but I'm hard deleting it this month. If you have a Twitter account you don't read, I also recommend full deletion before Nov. 15. Here's why.
Twitter has their TOS now in an unusual state https://x.com/en/tos with two copies of the TOS printed one after the other, with a notice the new TOS goes active November 15.
The major difference I see is starting Nov 15 they give themselves explicit rights to train AI models on your posts.

LukefromDCVideo: Palestine Action stops F-35 production for up to 18 months with supply chain attack on Teledyne
On Oct 2, pro-Palestine resistance fighters in Britain got onto the roof of a factory where Teledyne makes F-35 parts. These parts like many electronics must be made under clean room conditions, a single lint fiber can destroy them. Palestine Action managed to locate the clean room, then wreck it from above, cutting open the roof and allowing dust and debris to enter.
British cops have estimated it may take up to 18 months to recover, and during that interval F-35 fighter-bombers cannot be built once any existing stocks of Teledyne parts are consumed. For the next year and a half, Lockheed-Martin can no more build F-35's without these parts than I could build rubber powered model aircraft without access to rubber bands or radio controlled ones with no access to some key circuit board. This comes not long after Lockheed-Martin recovered from the last disruption to F-35 production.
THIS is direct action, real strategic action to destroy an enemy's ability to fight. Israel uses the F-35 to bomb Gaza, now more F-35s cannot be built. Same basic idea as the US Air Force itself bombing German ball bearing plants in WWII, figuring it's hard to build Nazi panzers without access to ball bearings.
UPDATE: It appears the F-35's were not the only fighter-bombers Israel lost. Some F-15's were blown up too.

Stef WalterI would like to meet the designer and congratulate them, because this is perfection. The nasty judgmental look of the crow is amazing. No notes.
