I doubt it. Defcon 3 surely wouldn't come to us via a blind link.

For no particular reason, just seemed appropriate.

This reaction always amuses me. Don’t y’all preview or hover a mouse over all links automatically? After all it isn’t exactly hard to do. And there’s no telling without doing so whether the person who posted a link actually named the link accurately or truthfully.

It is the principle of the matter.

If we lose such common courtesy as providing a brief summary of a provided link, we may as well descend into complete, Mad Max level anarchy.

I wonder if the FAS will update the Doomsday Clock.

Recall, in a completely non-partisan way, they moved it 3 times from 2017 through 2020, each time making it the "closest" to zero it has ever been (effectively 3 consecutive records).

You can give a description of the link and label it "this is what is in the link" for the actual link and some dumbass is going to call out your blind link. The forum software makes all the fricking links blind, you hover to see where you are going. Now the post that only says "Link", frick those guys.

It's equivocal of posting a link to the chick, but not a picture.

The current defcon level alerts range from levels 1 to 5, with defcon level 1 being the highest U.S. military defense readiness warning status that can be ordered by the Pentagon, such as in situations like a state of war, or heightened nuclear threat, and defcon level 5 being the lowest threat condition in the warning system and means a current state of peace .

Exactly it’s not like it wasn’t apparent where the link would take one.

Anyways, there used to be a poster here a while back who would use a screencap of the linked page and clicking the image would automatically take you to the website. That was far more useful imho.

Like so:

DEFCON 3, or Round House is an increase in alertness and military readiness, also known as 'yellow alert' status.

With Defcon 3 the air force is in a higher state or level of readiness so that they can deploy and mobilize within 15 minutes time. The alert color for DEFCON 3, or Round House is yellow.

The meaning behind this condition level is similar to that of a yellow "caution" sign. We are prepared, cautious and in a state of military readiness. This condition represents a state of preparedness and a high level of caution.

The alert status may be raised to Defcon 3, or Round House after a precision strike is carried out by an an enemy. This condition may also be reached after a precision strike is carried out by the United States military or any event that warrants a cautious state of military readiness and alert by U.S forces.

Just STFU and do it right.

You got something against social acceptance?

That assumes that the FAS is unbiased....

.... i was thinking the same thing. Everytime they nudged it under a GOP president, the networks seemed breathless in their coverage....
