https://www.msn.com/en-za/news/other/venezuela-accuses-the-us-of-masterminding-mercenary-invasion/ar-BB13B8FvI heard about this "attempted military coup" on Swedish radio a couple of days ago. My spontaneous though was, and still is, who the fuck tries to perform a military coup with 8 people, on a speedboat?
Assassinations perhaps, but a full on coup? I'm not buying it.

@LaoC I'm kind of surprised that a map like that wouldn't be classified anyway. Did someone leak it?

From the article:
An American man named Jordan Goudreau who leads a Florida-based security company called Silvercorp USA on Sunday released a video identifying himself as an organizer of the invasion, alongside dissident Venezuelan military officer Javier Nieto.
Wouldn't this alleged admission impact his life in the U.S.?

I found a story about it since my previous reply. Apparently, 8 was the number of people killed putting a stop to the coup attempt, not the number involved in the attempt (which was probably more in the range of hundreds). The whole thing reminds me of another story:

I haven't looked into it, and the only information I have is pretty much from the Swedish news bit, but they said there had been 8 arrests, and that the videos of the event came from Venezuelan media, which just act as a voice piece of the government so there wasn't much trust in the information.

More plausible than the "attack" they tried (and failed) to stop that was carried out by a civilian cruise ship

Guinness World Records found to be keeping track of many idiotic world records, news at 11
I'm going to start my own world record archive, and once I've collected enough records, write to Guinness to claim the title for most useless world records recorded.
Here are two more for your archive:

It's California.
Quite a few things there are illegal. And if it's not illegal, it causes cancer.

But at the same time, far too many things that should be illegal are perfectly welcome in CA.

Wouldn't work. No matter how many bullets were fired, they'd never actually hit anyone.

“It is an absurdity on a moral point of view,” Champagne producer and CIVC rep Bruno Paillard told Decanter back in 2005. “It’s sad that the USA, now a great wine country, continues to protect a few producers who are abusing the identity of others instead of using honest labeling for true consumer information.”

Doctors also tried pushing a plastic nail down his urethra without anaesthetic, which Polaris says was “ten out of ten on the pain scale,” to no avail.
And right there that’s enough internet for today.

(from the grsecurity article)
The Github repository mentioned in the article had a commit added to it this morning that inserted a notice to the top of the README file, distancing the code from Huawei. This commit was (intentionally or not) backdated to Friday when the repository was created, creating the impression that we somehow intentionally ignored pertinent information that was readily available. This is obviously untrue, and examining the contents of https://api.github.com/repos/cloudsec/hksp/events proves the commit was pushed to the repo this morning.
