I propose a solution. Invest in unmanned surface vehicles to carry duplicates of mail and require every piece of mail sent to sailors to have a duplicate of which randomly is selected the actual copy of mail to send to the real navy ship. Collect duplicates of the mail and send it on unmanned surface vehicles to sail around and pretend to be navy ships while gathering surveillance data.

Then even if someone thinks they have planted a tracker on a ship successfully they will still be second guessing themselves over whether they are tracking the real ship or not.

Trump and his cronies Pumping and Dumping like no one will ever hold them accountable either because they are desperate or they are winning or both.

This is the most important question. The context of Hawaii cannot be ignored when talking about agriculture, it is inherently charged with politics.

The second most important question is how the hell did we reduce the collective intelligence of our society to think that we could beat dogs at being dogs?

TL;DR Don’t try to beat Dogs at being Dogs with Robots, make Dogs more useful with Robot Helpers. Dogs are already extremely advanced and institutional groups of humans can reasonably care for a dog and tell when it is being seriously neglected or mistreated.

This is so dumb, why do we all choose to accept this?

The NYT is trash, don’t read it and don’t give them your money.

Definitely valid I was trying to emphasize I was I shared the article because of the category of technology, less so the specific “product”. An underappreciated aspect of “Drone Warfare” is a high degree of data sharing between different elements on the battlefield.

It is necessary to emphasize the architecture shaping these conflicts on the back end and what makes them too decisive to ignore.

For example this forward looking article about Link16 speculates pretty accurately what warfare would look like 20 years later.

With data links still being fielded and Internet protocols wide open to debate, much remains to be done before the future architectures become familiar tactical tools. But the Air Force is on the right path. “I’m really optimistic about where we’re going,” said Hobbins. “I do believe that technology will get us to where we want to go, which I believe is the self-forming, self-healing global information grid in the long term. Quite frankly, you could look out to the 2020 time frame and say hopefully we’ll be there by then, and I believe technology will move us even faster, and we’ll have great elements of this airborne network by the 2014 time frame.”

Never believe armchair observers when they say war has made a clean break with the past.

1. There are other similar systems, there will be more other similar systems, Link16 is worth knowing about as a basic concept because of the class of technology it illustrates.

2. Many helicopters, aircraft, and unmanned vehicles can mount Link16, this article kind of portrays this like this is just a fighter-bomber thing, it isn’t.

I thought JD Vance didn’t let himself be allowed alone in the room with any couch but his one at home as a rule… oh wait am I getting my creepy Republicans mixed up again? They are all the same but yet so creepy in their own individual ways.

I mean whether he staged it or not, all cult leaders are dependent upon producing a near militant zeal in their followers and that is bound to create people at the periphery of the cult who believe you are powerful and still buy into the fantasy of your power but no longer believe in you and believe they must stop you.

Charlie Kirk became a far more accepted figure after his death, killing him made the rightwing movement stronger, that really isn’t up for debate the effect is so obvious.

AI is not that powerful, this is all a scam.

The Chinook is already capable of unmanned maneuvers, there is no need to make an aircraft that large without the possibility of human control directly.

My heart is heavy.

Yeah, the issue is Europe hasn’t really invested in heavy helicopter design. Many of the major military powers in Europe seem to have been convinced attack helicopters were obsolete in a near-peer military conflict for decades, and I think it has created a large blindspot that is only now being addressed by the AW249 and acquisitions like the UK and Poland adopting a large numbers of AH64s.

The AW149 can do a lot of things, but I am skeptical somebody can make a better Chinook or Apache. They were both extremely forward looking designs when they appeared ~60 years ago and all of that time up until now has only given these airframes time to be iterated and improved. The leap to making these platforms unmanned capable is already happening with significant milestones achieved with the Chinook recently.

I mean, yeah I get it though the US is out of control right now but the US understood the way helicopters fundamentally changed warfare a long time ago and Europe can’t magically make up for all that lost time in working a design to maturity that was spent denying the decisiveness of rotarywing/VTOL Close Air Support while the US invested in it.

Can Europe even produce a heavy lift helicopter in the class that the Chinook is?

I think heavy appliances should be designed with a smart “run at the best time in the next 4 hours” function that could have a monitor on the grid supply to trigger the appliance to run at the most optimal time.

Chuck Schumer is controlled opposition.

Were you not paying attention to how Kirk was “martyred” by the mainstream media?

Did you not see how who Charlie Kirk was before he was killed become merely an uncomfortable detail to a rousing story of tragedy after he was killed?

Charlie Kirk’s ideas will NEVER be challenged, lampooned and dismantled fairly because his ideas are overshadowed by the narrative of his murder. If a leftist shot someone like Kirk it would be the beginning of a brutal implosion of civil liberties that would make what has happened so far look relatively limited in comparison.

Yes and there are WAY less of us when we resort to violence and intimidation because it fractures our clarity of intention and empowers the narratives of our enemies.
