american weapons are restricted in that they can’t hit targets deep inside russia proper. this is french weapon, so no such restrictions apply
not very useful, because range is not that long, but it’s something
i should be writing

these things have bigger warheads than GMLRS, longer range than JDAM and just as precise, but require safe passage for aircraft to be launched from. also, no barriers for their use
This looks like anti-ambush gizmos bolted to the sides of trucks in Vietnam. One-up this and put a quarter of claymore there instead
There’s also falling drone
nah but there will be personalized ads coming from this
saltman: no better time to be a startup
As if it would work as expected
what the fuck now
i think that ERA block must have been just a ballistic shield against fragments because otherwise drone would be shredded too
or maybe they made a small and light NERA
you see, air defense is very useful against supernatural horrors beyond human comprehension
(also they recently changed name to RTX after merger. surely no fucked up managerial cancer would spread from there, like with Boeing-McDonnel Douglas merger. not like they make anything of absolutely critical importance for Ukrainians)
eh it could have been worse. this is how polish national tv reported about underwater drones damaging nord stream
inserting drone team deep behind enemy lines is definitely an option (not here but in principle)
yeah, a lot of broke trumpists will get fucked over, along with all other broke americans, getting worse if they are lgbt or non-white or need healthcare, or are migrants. on top of palestinians, lebanese (done deal at this point), ukrainians (likely) and maybe taiwanese
one thing that i can think of that could reduce damage is that while some policies are stupid, cruel and obviously harmful for everyone, that didn’t stop them previously, but this might make line no go up for billionaire republicans, and if they have trump’s ear, that could make their implementation ineffective on purpose. i mean here specifically undocumented migrant work whose deportation would make post-covid inflation look like a joke
the ones ending up being kicked down in this scenario have more money than god and ear of trump, not to mention that some of these were likely donors to his campaign. maybe sutskever or even saltman might be ceremonially burned at stake for posterity, but thiel and musk are gonna be safe
it looks like they’re trying to delay either of those in most ghoulish way possible https://arstechnica.com/ai/2024/11/safe-ai-champ-anthropic-teams-up-with-defense-giant-palantir-in-new-deal/

plenty of them will just shrug it off as “commie propaganda” and will ignore reality as long as they can receive coast to coast am, then blame dems for the bits they cannot ignore anymore
bonus points to former hilary’s consultants (or so i hear) running current campaign deciding that going to the right (who the fuck likes cheney?) was a good idea
there is usually tripartisan support (everybody but the far-right Republicans) for imperialism
i’m not sure how thoroughly trumpists have purged the party of noncompliants, so maybe this non-far-right republicans block is smaller than it used to be
And yes, you read that correctly; Democrats move right as a reaction to Republicans doing well
i’m not surprised by small to medium number of spineless MPs effectively changing sides, i have seen that previously. it is surprising to me that it keeps happening and dems don’t boot these people without notice, or at least deny them places on ballot
unrelated but we’re all gonna get so many of trumpist brown-nosed sleazes as ambassadors now
it looks likely that we out there in poland might get georgette mosbacher as next ambassador. she was more of an lobbyist going hard against eu digital tax, but there’s much more
fern? germ factories
there were a few stupidly close calls in soviet biological weapons program
2 means “just” removing earth’s magnetic field, van allen belts don’t shield from anything, these are trapped solar wind
5 could have side effect of disturbing ozone layer, on top of, yknow, just suffocating every animal
7 is not even wrong
10 sounds like CIA’s final plan for assassinating Castro: just let him die of old age
i thought that was because storm shadow had some american components?
