This shit show is getting to be almost Pink Pantheresque level of comedy. The Saudis did all this bumbling, spy novel wannabe antics in their own consulate where the Turkish government had the highest level of surveillance. Literally everything was recorded.

These guys aren't the sharpest tools in the shed.

edit: I get it guys, All Star by Smashmouth is a song. Thank you all 50 people who informed me that their finger and thumb was the shape of an L on their foreheads. We did it, Reddit!

Who knew dismembering a journalist involved so much paperwork

Next from the Saudis:

"It was a nice day for a barbecue and we were only using those important documents to help get the fire started"

Turkey is light years ahead of Saudi-Arabia in the field of espionage. The Saudi’s are no match for the Turks. It is impressive to see how the Saudis are being outplayed at every level.

Man the Saudis really underestimated the Turks.

I've been impressed with the Turks intelligence gathering so far.

This happened a lot faster than I thought it would.

Is this what happens when a private company wants to finish a government contracted job? Because contract work is the biggest waste of money and time our country faces at the moment due to corruption and intentional inefficiencies on both sides.

Did the Not-A-Flamethrower that I purchased help pay for this?

I was in the Norway/Western region and those folks know how to bore. I was in endless tunnels that went through fjords and mountains. My favorite part was the round about in the middle of the tunnel.

As a resident not too far away it will be really amazing to take my kids and experience together what very may be the future diamond lane! I can't wait for this.

A little over a month ago, Torvalds stepped back from running the Linux development community. [...] "I am going to take time off and get some assistance on how to understand people's emotions and respond appropriately." [...] That time is over. Torvalds is back.

When most people read, "get some assistance," they probably thought he'd seek help in improving himself, but maybe he really meant that he'd hire someone to filter him. The timeframe makes that more plausible.

I feel like we need Linus to tell us how it is sometimes. I hope he doesn't rein it back too far.

“NASA tends to avoid any area on Mars that may have water deposits for fear of contaminating any life there with hardy Earth bacteria.”

I get the idea that we want to avoid contaminating any existing life....but are we just never going to explore those areas? What’s the plan here?

Why is no one talking about the fact that an active volcano spewed out smoke on mars the past days? or was that bogus(?)

does it have a strong enough gravitational pull to hold an atmosphere/ create an ionosphere?
