Well, that didn't take long https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_terrorist_incidents_in_January_2017

I'm always impressed by Wikipedia when it comes to bad news. Just a few minutes after a famous person dies, someone has already added the date and cause of death and even changed the whole article to the past tense.

[–]Glitch198 670 ポイント671 ポイント  (23子コメント)

There was also that one time a person was declared dead on wikipedia a couple hours before their body was found.

And I'm glad they do, it's nice to have such an up-to-date encyclopedia readily available.

[–]IIllIIllIIlllIIIlllI 256 ポイント257 ポイント  (47子コメント)

Off-topic, but when I was a kid we had an old encyclopedia set that was at least 20 years old. Maybe 30. That's what I did all of my reports and stuff with as a kid. And most people didn't even have that in their house. It's just so crazy to think about now.

My father was born 1962 and got a encyclopedia as a present when he was 7, 1969. I was born 1990 and read in that encyclopedia until 2000ish almost on a daily basis out of curiousity. The encyclopedia still exists in my fathers shelf and once a year or so when I visit my hometown I browse n the encyclopedia though it starts to be more and more fragile. Those old encyclopedias really have their own magical charm especially with those drawings and photos. Just as Vinyl are not as high quality as today's music but they have a special charm. That said, of course I also use Wikipedia nowadays almost on a daily basis (if not even more than once a day).

    Damn. I've never even thought about what wikipedia might be worth to me. I'm gonna go donate.

    Shit, I haven't donated in years, but it's true. I donate to other organizations with similar mission statements (distribution of information, keeping people informed and educated, etc) but I just never give Wikipedia any love, even though I use it almost daily.

    That changes this year. I'm going to set up a monthly donation

            Wikipedia is one of the biggest projects human beings have ever done. It's fascinating to be part of such a lively organism! Do you really find Wikipedia substantial? Open an account today and taste the fun of writing articles people will read maybe decades after!..

                    Imagine yourself stumbling upon a magic lamp a few days from now and wishing for immortality upon a magic genie which grants you this wish instantly.

                    The only problem is you didn't think this through. A seemingly infinite time has passed and there is no life in the universe any more. You've been floating on the void alone for more 5 quadrillion years. There hasn't been a single event anywhere in the universe for that long. Your brain is completely void of ideas since there is nothing to stimulate it.

                    No thoughts in your mind except for one. One simple thought that you're condemned to repeat over and over again for all eternity:

                    "I'm thankful for people who can turn despair into a laugh"

                            Owner of Reina said CIA warned them against such an attack a week ago.

                            EDIT: Later he said that CIA didn't give him any information personally and he was referring to US embassy's security messages against any terror attack on October 29th but he was misunderstood.

                            Turkish Source

                            Probably he referred this message or this one

                            "This attack was carried out by extremist Muslims, so let's go into a more conservative and Islamic state." -Erdogan

                                      From the live thread:

                                      The Governor of the Istanbul Province, Vasip Sahin, reported that a single armed assailant was dressed as Santa Claus, which is an apparent Turkish tradition for police officers at celebrations.

                                      So it's apparently a tradition in Turkey for police officers to dress up as Santa Claus for celebrations? Don't really know where /u/ghill1213 got that source from though. Maybe he wants to chip in.

                                      Yeah during New Years Turkish police dress up as Santa Claus when they patrol the crowds. The idea is to force criminals into thinking twice before they pick pocket drunk people, since there is a Santa in every street and there is no way to know whether it's the police or not.

                                            Santa Claus is seen more as a New Years figure in a lot of Muslim countries rather than a Christmas one. It's not unusual to find them in certain countries like Turkey during New Years celebrations.

                                            It's unfortunate, but Istanbul is one of the largest cities in the world and even with heavy police presence, it is still very likely that terrorists in achieving their fucked up goals.

                                                  I can't even bring myself to watch the video. Just reading these responses and knowing it shows someome dying just an hour ago is enough to haunt me, let alone actually seeing it. I also try to think about that person's loved ones, and whether they would want that broadcast. Either way, this is absolutely horrible. My thoughts are with Istanbul tonight.

                                                  Wish I hadn't watched it, it's a girl lying mostly face down in a pool of blood and randomly does a singular sickening kind of primal gasp. Makes me wanna kill terrorists.

                                                  Also wish I hadn't watched it.

                                                  Edit: few hours later. Can't get that poor girls body jerks/ movements out of my head. I think I'll research who she was tomorrow and somehow contribute/ donate. She had a life, dreams, passions, and all I know of her is during the worst moments of her life. I feel kinda selfish watching the video. Fuck man. RIP lady!

                                                      I was a mere few hundred meters away from the location when the attack was carried out, but I had no idea why the police were whizzing by and roads were being blocked until I came back home and read the news.

                                                      Such is the power of terror in the age of information. Each attack is closely documented and broadcast to viewers all around the world. Even if the terrorists don't kill enough people to be statistically significant (it's sad enough that this has to be a consideration), the news of the events becomes a deterrent against any popular public activity.

                                                      Glad you're fine. Terrible thing that happened, especially on New Year's Eve when people were celebrating. There were so many attacks recently that one would think you can become numb about it, but nope. I feel so sorry for the victims and their families.

                                                        Reports of 40+ dead people are coming in from multiple sources. Of course the officials won't admit to it.

                                                        Just go on Instagram and search for videos around the location of the incident. I've seen people on social media talk about how the assailants ended up killing everyone that was still alive at the end of it.

                                                        It is a horrible tragedy whose scale is yet to be acknowledged.

                                                                Thats a reflex. See how she spends a very long time not breathing and then suddenly gasps for air, then stops breathing again? Thats a very common sign of a person who is very far gone in the process of dying.

                                                                http://www.hospicepatients.org/hospic60.html

                                                                much longer periods of pausing in the breathing (apnea)

                                                                jaw drop; the patient's jaw is no longer held straight and may drop to the side their head is lying towards

                                                                Her mouth is suspended open even though thats an area where shes got an open wound she is unconscious, breathing strangely, and her mouths wide open. Poor girl is gone.

Though, this place is much less enclosed than Bataclan and is actually several places that are kind of unified by bar pricing, rather than one enclosed place. Lots of exits, including just jumping away. I won't be surprised to see 100. But, much more escapable than Bataclan.

                                                                                      Not knew as in, being a terrorist myself, but knew that things couldn't go flawlessly the entire world over. There always seems to be something somewhere every other week, and on a night like NYE, it was a no brainer for me.

                                                                                      Sadly, the methods they use for choosing places to do this sort of thing aren't complex. They literally just choose places with lots of people, so unless you lock yourself in your house and let them win, there is no 100% failsafe way to keep safe. They will always go after numbers.

Istanbul is an amazing, gorgeous city. You are walking through history at every turn. It saddens me knowing how many people potentially won't ever visit because of attacks like these, and how much more the people who make their living from tourism related industries will have to struggle.

Agonal breathing, which is what she appeared to be doing in the video, is not a good sign in a trauma scenario. Based on the loss of blood and probable time it would take for her to get treated (they appear to be in the middle of the whole mess and not easy to be reached by rescue crews), her situation is very bad. I hope I am wrong here

She was gone at the time of the video and the gasping was merely that neural reflex, the last ditch effort the body is programmed to do when we're o2 starved and dying. Really really upsetting to see it, do not watch it again if you're smart. I wish I hadn't.

                                                                                              At least she was no longer suffering when it was taken. I hope she didn't suffer at all and never knew what happened.

                                                                                                                  Twin bombings carried out by the Kurdistan Freedom Falcons (TAK) killed 44 people on 10 December, while other blasts have targeted police and the security services.

The number of people on Twitter who supports these attacks are just ridiculous. I'm not talking about random eggs either (thousands of followers). Isis need to be wiped as soon as possible. Muslims also need to start to get angry as they get with israel. Bashar alssad killed more palestinians than israel did in the last 20 years. Terrorist killed more civilians than the US did in Iraq.

They are just a "brand" currently. If they are "gone" these people will reform under any other name (it could be Dick Suckers and Co. as long as I care) but they will still carry out attacks.

I was scrolling through my notifications, I saw the CNN notification about this and a BR notification that said 49ers are firing Baalke and Kelly. Guess which notification made me stop and click it and which one I just scrolled past. Seriously, FUCK THIS WORLD FUCK ALL HUMANS WE ARE THE FUCKIN WORST!

They are literally willing to kill themselves rather than allow some people to have a drink and a dance with a member of the opposite sex.

                                                                                                                      They must feel deeply deeply threatened.
