For Sale on eBay: A Military Database of Fingerprints and Iris Scans
German security researchers studying biometric capture devices popular with the U.S. military got more than they expected for $68 on eBay.The shoebox-shaped device, designed to capture fingerprints and perform iris scans, was listed on eBay for $149.95. A German security researcher, Matthias Marx, successfully offered $68, and when it arrived at his home in Hamburg in August, the rugged, hand-held machine contained more than what was promised in the listing.
The device’s memory card held the names, nationalities, photographs, fingerprints and iris scans of 2,632 people.
Most people in the database, which was reviewed by The New York Times, were from Afghanistan and Iraq. Many were known terrorists and wanted individuals, but others appeared to be people who had worked with the U.S. government or simply been stopped at checkpoints. Metadata on the device, called a Secure Electronic Enrollment Kit, or SEEK II, revealed that it had last been used in the summer of 2012 near Kandahar, Afghanistan.

Tobacco companies to be billed for cleaning up cigarette butts in Spain
Ruling is part of a package of measures designed to reduce waste and increase recycling
The ruling, which comes into force this Friday, is part of a package of measures designed to reduce waste and increase recycling. It includes a ban on single-use plastic cutlery and plates, cotton buds, expanded polystyrene cups and plastic straws, as well as cutting back on plastic food packaging.
The law conforms to a European Union directive limiting the use of single-use plastics and which aims to oblige polluters to clean up the mess they create.

Thom Browne can keep his stripes, the jury has ruled. After a nine-day trial, the New York luxury brand has been found not liable for damages or profits made from the sales of its four-striped products in its case against Adidas over the stripe.
Adidas sued Thom Browne for nearly $8 million in damages and profits, arguing that Thom Browne’s stripes “imitate” its own branding, citing its Three-Stripe trademark. Unable to settle outside of court, the brands first appeared in front of Judge Jed Rakoff on Tuesday 3 January. On Thursday, just hours after closing arguments, the jury ruled in favour of Thom Browne.

Alec Baldwin & ‘Rust’ Armorer To Face Criminal Charges Over 2021 Fatal Movie Shooting
https://deadline.com/2023/01/ale…
- Conviction is punishable by up to 4 years in jail or prison and a fine of up to $10,000.00. https://www.shousela…imbecile
- I hope he goes to prison.jmckinno
- interesting pick for an armorer. I’d guess she specializes in in-game weaponry. Which would actually explain quite a lot.monNom
- He and his wife were posting happily on social media right after the incident all the while the husband & kid of the dead woman grieved. Fuck Baldwins.NBQ00
- Monnom. Parent were armorerpango
- He shouldn't of ever said he never pulled the triggerYakuZoku
- ^ but he's an angry liar, soKrassy
- He's an asshole but it's the armorer's fault.fooler
- just fyi, being mad at an angry liar doesn't make them culpableimbecile
- He thought he was given a prop gun on a movie set. Why would anyone have a real loaded gun in this scenario. Totally not his fault.monospaced
- I don’t know shit about this. Maybe he did know. But it would only be criminal to me if he knew he had a loaded gun you’d think. Doubt he wanted to hurt anyone.monospaced
- He was one of the producers. Contributed to lax set standardsGnash
- ^Krassy
- Why are there ever real guns on a movie set? The only reason I can imagine is so the production company doesn't need to do FX for bullets hitting the dirt. $$$monNom
- Real guns are loaded with weak rounds to produce the on screen effect without being lethal. In theory. She was hired and paid to do that job. She is culpable.imbecile
- it's her job to check the gun before handing to actors, and the actors only.
she definitely didn't follow safety protocol.pango - or incompetencepango
- An interesting side note: Alec Baldwin's father was the rifle coach in my high school in the 80s.CyBrainX
- I'm guessing the armorer is a nepo babypango

Just some jelly beta cucks.
I'm still waiting on grafician's take.palimpsest - @pango To not simply hate, jumping on the band wagon.ApeRobot
- @ApeRobot People were obsessed with Epstein though. There's some similarities, like apparently Andrew Tate also used women to enslave other womenyuekit
- He didn't really hide it either. There's some quote where he's like, "OK I'm going to Romania to evade human trafficking laws" or something like that lolyuekit
- oh trust me. there's no bang wagon here. just schadenfreude. he's not an everyday joe i would feel bad shit happens to.pango
- I think Tate would actually be up for a *bang* wagon.palimpsest
- he was an accomplished mma fighter or something. not sure how that shit fare in prison.pango
- Clearly Epstein's mistake was that he didn't promote himself as a mens rights advocate/ pick up artist.yuekit

- You're posting comments about these two nobodies but where are your comments about the most prolific case in recorded history?Rendle
- The TV didn't tell you to be upset about it so you're not. You're an empty headed cretin that only gets angry when the TV tells you toRendle
- Share your comments on Epstein or know that you're a fool. It's very simple ...Rendle
- "When you start throwing insult you lose the argument."
Sorry buddy. According to you, you lost the argument already. Now go back to your room.pango - Because their alleged crime isn't as bad as Epstein, they shouldn't be locked up? Are you that fucked up in the head now?pango

Two sisters trapped in the rubble. They think they've been there for two weeks, it's been two days..

""Our mother's body has started to stink and we can't breathe properly," Irem tells the rescuers. The girls have been lying next to their dead mother for days. It is shocking. How awful that there can be moments in life when you would not want your mother next to you, we reflected."- How many people suffered before dying, while waiting for help, that never came...
