@lemmy.worldMaybe a dumb question, but why would this warrant an evacuation? I get that it's contraband, but it's drugs, not a weapon. Unless they thought since one disallowed thing made it's way in that there could be other stuff (weapons) as well?
Edit: or maybe they thought it could be anthrax at first, which makes much more sense as to why they would evacuate
"[General Pat Ryder] said Pentagon officials 'took steps' to 'mitigate the potential collection efforts of that balloon' and these efforts contributed to this result, though he did not elaborate further."
Could be. Looks like there are issues at cloudflare at the moment https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
This and the post link appear broken for me. The source url works (but is paywalled) though: https://www.ft.com/content/8c247cb9-c14b-4fd6-94d6-300655c35c1e
Edit: Looks like archive.is
is down at the time of writing
It is a known bug. I tried to find the source but was not able to to find it again. From what I recall, when it says "Subscribe Pending" you are subscribed, it's just a display issue and should be fixed next release. I'll update if I can find the source
Edit: still not the source I was remembering, but here is an open GitHub issue for this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1315
