Nato has had advanced drone capabilities for a long time now, but was mainly focused on stealth and reusability rather than mass production. I know drone swarms to accompany stealth fighters and navy ships have been in development for some years now, but the mass use of disposable drones is not something there was a real need for. But I have no doubt that modern infantry training will start including drone usage and tactics, if that isn’t the case already.

Looks like there has been a communication breakdown. He can ramble on all he wants but he won’t get a whole lotta love.

Will do that today, thanks for the suggestion.

I can confirm you can glaze perfectly fine with water. I don’t usually use water, but have done it with a little splash on occasion.

The dresscode never changes when you work from home. Although when a video call is necessary, it requires a 50% change.

At this point you might as well start a third party.

Those bears sure needed a lot of ammo

You don’t need a paid subscription though. Only to see the results of the wordle bot, if you care for that.

I have been watching Newsradio after seeing a very funny clip, which has Joe Rogan as the IT/maintenance guy. He’s not very funny, but I was surprised it was the same guy as I had only ever heard of him as a podcaster.

Lemmy: very human to use.

Which is also why the post cold war world order was doomed to fail. The only remaining super power not choosing the moral high ground severely damaged any prospects at a longer lasting peace.

“Rules for thee but not for me” also has an adverse effect in geopolitics, not only at work, school or any organization.

The equivalent in jets and fighter pilots.

It would hardly be a world war. Who would be stupid enough to join on the side of Russia?

Fuck off. Russia considers itself at war with the democratic world. It’s long overdue the democratic world responds in the only way Russia recognizes: brute force.

If that means active engagement from NATO or even individual nations like Poland or France, then so be it.

It’s a falcon head, not a policy change.

That’s sure what it sounds like. Doesn’t sound very practical, even for reconnaissance, but I suppose it could have some practical application.

I once did something like that to myself. Not satisfied with the tame spiciness of jalapenos on pizza, I decided to put a bhut jolokia (aka ghost pepper) on one. That was a profoundly dumb idea.

I was blinded by the need for spice and suffered twice.

No, not the euro, but China did peg the Yuan to the dollar for years to ensure their exports remained cheap.

China is ok with it because they will insist the Renminbi be used as the brics reserve currency.

I guess because he thinks my comment is pointlessly braggy or something like that, which is fair I suppose, but I will leave it for context.
