1 day agoTorrents are P2P. You are downloading from other people who are seeding. If no one seeds, there’s nothing to download. Simple as that. Etiquette dictates you should seed more than you download to ensure the network stays lively.

271·2 days agoI know some people who swear by their tablets… I’d imagine for them having only one device is pretty enticing
Sorry to hear that, I almost bought one but couldn’t justify the flagship price… Glad I didn’t :/

Hezbollah is, also, a political party. It’s military wing was formed to fight the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon.
So would you say it’s using violence to instill terror and achieve political goals?
My point is that the lithium battery angle is a diversion and isn’t even relevant.
Turkey literally said they were willing to intervene if the conflict further escalates.
And if Israel bombed Lebanon, it wouldn’t matter whether Hezbollah is state sponsored or not. They would be attacking Lebanon’s sovereignty.
Israel could have leveled a block in Lebanon like they do in Gaza, but they didn’t.
They absolutely cannot, not without expecting a similar, if not bigger, retaliation from Lebanon, Iran, Insarhallah, and probably Turkey.
Lithium batteries can ignite, but they don’t just explode like that.
These pagers don’t use lithium battery.

They are still very common in hospital settings. Those things are reliable as fuck.

Yeah or even more in-depth than weighing them xraying devices is pretty trivial, specially a small device like a pager that fits on a dental x-ray machine.
Well yeah, specially since the Apollo Gold pagers don’t use lithium batteries.
Gold Apollo lists AA, FWIWPower from a single AA alkaline battery (plus lithium backup battery).EDIT: The AP-900 uses AAA.
And yeah they absolutely are legit and are used all over the industries that still use pagers (hospitals are big big one in part because of their reliability and lack of EMI).
Another interesting point about them is that they are:
UL-certified for use in hazardous locations
That’s how torrents work. Everytime you’re downloading so.ething you’re connecting to other people’s computers and letting other people connect to yours.
