Knowing how stupid ITAR enforcement is, the guide would probably fall under ITAR :)

FPV used in combat these days go a lot further than 4km, you can punch out to 25km+ with a good repeater setup easily, 10-15km with a good mast setup, and strikes using FPV quads out to 45km have been documented (but these are rare).

You just need to plan your battery selection and consider the electronic warfare environment to go the distance.

There’s also the optical fiber drones which come in spool lengths up to 20km…

How much registration is required? I can see this being useful for some things :)

That’s actually a pretty solid idea, I wonder if it would work in a bowl format…

A lot of folks who are sympathetic to his actions publicly go “oh no murder is bad” while privately being sympathetic.

I’m unsure how that shows with polling, tbh, but it certainly shows up in the discourse.

Gentrification of areas with music venues is a notable factor. It’s like a cycle. Very noticeable in London.

Place is cheap and kind of a shithole so it’s possible to open cool bars and late night music venues. People move there because it’s now a cool place. Prices go up. People complain about the noise from the venues. Venues close and are replaced with sterile overpriced crap. Place is now boring and expensive. See: Shoreditch as a fine example.

Sooner suck start a shotgun than try live off Huel or similar products again tbh.

I guess that depends where you order from. You can get some crazy machines from Alibaba/Aliexpress and the “documentation” they come with is usually… well it leaves a lot to be desired.

You absolutely can. Have you a credit card and a web browser? You can buy all sorts of heavy machinery and have it shipped to your door!

I guess we have different risk tolerances.

The best way to learn is to do. Sure, you might make some mistakes along the way, but fuck it. That’s how you learn.

The patch shown in the indictment is literally a meme patch you can buy from a bunch of edgy shops that sell patches for like ten dollars.

It’s not like a membership badge or anything.

Because the turret thing was probably a drunken shitpost/joke he made to the informant that he thought was his friend much like the “claymore roomba” or “tannerite dog” meme.

I’m still not sure what this guy is meant to have done wrong beyond having a rifle that’s “too short” and blowing up some shit on his own property and I guess having some edgy political ideas.

None of which should be crimes.

Funnily, responsible waste management has been an extremely well covered topic in a lot of the DIY science/chemistry forums over the years.

It’s even come up regularly on YouTube channels like NileRed/NileBlue - he has a couple of videos on processing wastes/cleanup work done after a reaction.

Contacts for reliable contract synthesis labs in China are kind of a closely held secret.

Before the 2017 “general ban” on psychoactive substances in the UK there was a thriving industry where “entrepreneurs” with the contacts for such labs would hire chemists to find them a new candidate analogue/derivative of say, a stimulant or hallucinogen or whatever, knock together a synthesis route, see if it works, and then have it manufactured in bulk for resale to head shops.

A small number of people got incredibly rich off this, some got busted when their product got banned and they didn’t dump the stock fast enough, but most made fucking phenomenal amounts of money.

The same “trade” carries on in some other European countries to this day, with “new” LSD derivatives cropping up every few months when one is invariably banned.

I vaguely recall there was even a few articles about this whole thing back in the day by some journalists, maybe at Vice or something? They had an interview with one of the chemists.

It’s against the fucking constitution in Ukraine to hold elections during wartime.

I don’t understand why people in west find that so hard to wrap their heads around, especially Americans.

Basically this. There’s an asymmetry at play in a few ways - one being will to fight/engage.

At the moment, there is a lack of political will to properly give the Houthis a pounding into the sand to force them to stop chucking shit at ships.

Mainly because the American public does not want to deploy marines to Yemen and get in another pointless land war in a sandbox.

A 7” drone can happily carry about 1.5kg which is more than sufficient to carry a RPG shell.

I wonder if that’s why there’s now such a fucking problem with sports betting…

Those states half arsed it.

They did the decriminalisation step and then never bothered with the “redirecting savings from policing into services” step.

They also fucked it in other ways.

For an example of where it does work - see Portugal.

A lot of normal people have used VPN’s for years now to get around geolocks on streaming content.

Fuck, even some technically illiterate people I know do this to watch various shows.

The bouncers won’t let them in because they would harsh the vibe :)

I spend a lot of time there.

The long range “precision” attacks by Russia often just end up randomly killing civilians.

Eg: missile strikes on Kyiv blowing up a children’s hospital, or the September strikes on Lviv blowing up a random apartment building and wiping out almost an entire family.

You can easily go “what are the chances” even when shahads are flying over your head and the sky is lit up with tracer fire from mobile air defense units after some exposure.

We get it, you work in adtech :)

This kills the board. Users will go elsewhere, fuck all people pay for pass.

The downstream effects in other countries are pretty annoying.

Because of US restrictions on pseudo, bizarrely other countries have followed suit - it’s next to impossible to find a decongestant with pseudo here in Ireland, they will sell you the useless phenylephrine shit instead, and the packaging is almost indistinguishable unless you spend a while looking and arguing with a pharmacist who is convinced phenylephrine works just as good.

I remember a fair few moved after the last go around (2016) to Berlin and the ones I met found German bureaucracy incredibly stifling in terms of business, which was a major fumble of the ball.

Same with Brits moving post Brexit vote, finding the German environment difficult to do business in.

Really, Europe needs to be able to capitalise on whatever amount of talent flight from the US happens, instead of … whatever the fuck they are doing currently.

> That said, cheating is an existential threat to a good game experience online

I never understood this.

As I mentioned in another thread, maybe I’m just old or something now, but I’ve never given a fuck if another player was cheating.

Back in the day it was pretty normal to run into someone using aimbot or wall hack or whatever shit.

You would just change server or join a different lobby or whatever if it was really bothering your enjoyment.

I might be old or something, but I really don’t give a fuck if someone’s cheating in a video game.

It was basically the norm when I was growing up, there was always someone using wall hacks or whatever, it was just kinda funny and never ruined the fun.

Tbf, the only thing I miss with my M2 MacBook is the ability to run x86_64 VM’s with decent performance locally.

I’ve tried a bunch of ways to do this - and frankly the translation overhead is absolute pants currently.

Not a showstopper though, for the 20-30% of complete pain in the ass cases where I can’t easily offload the job onto a VPS or a NUC or something, I just have a ThinkPad.
