I don't want to confirm nor deny thay, but diplomats of most nations chose "defense" to appear less hostile and get better deals and partnerships going. They are on to something as well ๐Ÿ™‚

This is actually what they want and one of the few things that makes sense. They did it in part, because they think defense sounds weaker than war, but also the US is often involved in wars. So defense really didn't fit well.

I have an old Roomba that doesn't have wireless connectivity, except infra-red. They don't build them like that any more. All new models have bluetooth and wifi, no matter if you use that, or not. They will drive around with that extra hardware, maybe even supply it with power, even if you just use the hardware buttons to control it.

Some ppl are paranoid about someone remote hacking their Roomba. I doubt it's possible, but still it's priceless to have a "dumb" one.

you put on the hazard lights and slow down while steering to the side of the road to assess the situation or until you can see again.

like holy shit why would you even consider accelerating when you can't see where you're going

Jamborees are also held in other countries and for some magical reason they don't need the military or are even opposed to be associated with military.

So this could turn out to be a good thing that prevents kids to be raised militant, even if it causes logistic problems at first.

I actually assumed she was dead. AFAIK it's impossible to cryogenically freeze someone alive, at the moment.
