Stabbed By Angry Cock

An Indian man was stabbed to death by his own rooster after he attached a 3-inch knife to its leg for an illegal cockfight, police said Sunday. Thangulla Satish, 45, was stabbed in the groin last week when the bird he had just armed for the fight fluttered in panic, according to police in Lothunur village in Telangana state. “Satish was hit by the rooster’s knife in his groin and started bleeding heavily,” police inspector B. Jeevan said Sunday, revealing that the victim died on his way to a local hospital. Police are now looking for over a dozen other people involved in organizing the deadly cockfight, warning that they could face up to two years in prison if found guilty. The rooster survived, with photos of it tied with a rope and pecking on grains at the police station went viral locally on social media. “We may need to produce it before the court,” Jeevan said. In the fights — banned in India in 1960 — two birds with a knife or blade attached fight until one either dies...
Are Incels Terrorists?

As attacks linked to the misogynist “incel” movement mounted in recent years, authorities around the world have begun to treat the ideology as a more serious terrorism threat. Since 2014, men who call themselves “involuntary celibates” and blame women for their own lack of sexual and social status have carried out mass killings in California, Florida, and Toronto. On Wednesday, a judge in Canada delivered a guilty verdict for the perpetrator of the 2018 Toronto van attack, which left 10 people dead and 16 injured – the deadliest incident linked to the incel movement. In her verdict, the judge found that the attacker’s resentment towards women was one among several motivating factors, but experts warn that such incidents are becoming more frequent, and that the ideology behind them is spreading internationally. 2020 saw a string of incel-related incidents, including a machete attack at a Toronto massage parlor, a shooting at an Arizona mall which injured three people, a man who...
Air Force Can't Make Their Own Heat Sink

In a surprising turn of events, the United States government is calling upon its country’s industry to reverse engineer components for the Air Force’s B-2 Spirit stealth bomber. An official call for this highly unusual kind of assistance was put out today on the U.S. government’s contracting website beta.SAM.gov. Mark Thompson, a national-security analyst at the Project On Government Oversight, brought our attention to the notice, which seeks an engineering effort that will reverse engineer key parts for the B‐2’s Load Heat Exchangers. While it is not exactly clear what part of the aircraft’s many complex and exotic subsystems these heat exchangers relate to, the bomber has no shortage of avionics systems, for example, which could require cooling. The notice does provide details of what it expects engineers do to support the upkeep of the silver-bullet stealth bomber fleet: “This engineering effort is to reverse engineer the core of the B‐2 Load Heat Exchangers, develop...
Trannies probed Frog Twitter's Backend

WHEN TWITTER BANNED Donald Trump and a slew of other far-right users in January, many of them became digital refugees, migrating to sites like Parler and Gab to find a home that wouldn't moderate their hate speech and disinformation. Days later, Parler was hacked and then dropped by Amazon web hosting, knocking the site offline. Now Gab, which inherited some of Parler's displaced users, has been badly hacked too. An enormous trove of its contents has been stolen—including what appears to be passwords and private communications. On Sunday night the WikiLeaks-style group Distributed Denial of Secrets is revealing what it calls calling “GabLeaks,” a collection of more than 70 gigabytes of Gab data representing more than 40 million posts. DDoSecrets says a hacktivist who self-identifies as "JaXpArO and My Little Anonymous Revival Project" siphoned that data out of Gab's backend databases in an effort to expose the platform's largely rightwing users. Those Gab patrons, whose numbers...

Julia Roberts says there's "no one more deserving" of being honored for his work than Anthony Fauci. "You've been tireless and true for all of us and I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart," the "Pretty Woman" actress says while presenting the nation's top infectious diseases expert with amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research's Award of Courage. People on Thursday was first to report details of the organization's virtual event, scheduled to be seen on March 4. Roberts, 53, heaps praise on Fauci and his work fighting AIDS amid the coronavirus pandemic, telling him, "You have been a beacon for us." "Thank you so much Julia, those are such very kind words. I really do appreciate them. Coming from you, that really means a lot to me," Fauci, 80, replies. Saying while it's nice to be recognized, Fauci notes he wants to "make sure that we tip our hat" to COVID-19's unsung heroes, including health care workers who "very bravely, every day put their lives and safety on...
