Interesting parallel! I'm not super versed on the middle ages/medieval history. I love the concept of learning more about it but for me finding the time to properly do so just isn't there.
I also miss like... college style lectures on those kind of topics. I should just squat some history classes at the universities by me.
Sure, pointing at streets. Your normal not super cheap FPV has a range of like a mile. Even adjacent to an urban center you could find places to launch a drone and send it to do evil shit and not be spotted.
I think that's a bit far fetched. You don't need to have something fly from Tripoli to hit the US, just send operatives here, and have them launch the attacks from the US. You could be a mile away and never get caught, hypothetically speaking.
I still think US doctrine from GW1 applies, simply because drone use is already being implemented into the current chain of command. I have a few friends that are on the RnD side of things and the non classified drone stuff they've talked about to me is exceptionally impressive, and augments current doctrine rather than upending it.
Same. I put in like 3 hours into Breakpoint and I was like 'where's literally all the flavor gone from this game? So glad I waited until it was like a 5 dollar steam sale. Even then I tried to refund it but was past the 'trial' period.
Current US doctrine relies on controlling the skies. Still right now there's no credible threat to US air dominance. If the US has air dominance, drones in their current form are a bug attacking a tractor. Look up videos on how the US air campaign worked during Gulf War 1 and see the sheer number of assets that were on station for months waiting for the order to attack. Any enemy would be utterly exhausted by the time any attack started and the force and speed of violence would keep drones down to local threats.
That's also not counting any drone countermeasures the US currently has and could mass deploy.
I think the US use of expensive drones is just different to what we're seeing in Ukraine. They're fitting into a different space than FPV drones, which isn't bad, it's just different.
How many billions of dollars in student loan debt did Biden cancel? How much more would have been cancelled if the supreme court didn't act in a blatantly partisan manner?
Yeah, I do hold them responsible. Shumer shouldn't be in leadership and AOC should be on every high profile committee there is.
Not voting solves nothing. You know how you get more progressive legislation passed? By voting for the party that has progressives in it. That's how. More democrats means more people like AOC. It doesn't fucking matter if your personal rep is a god damned blue dog if it means there's one less republican in congress.
I hope they have the day they voted for.
Simple as that. My empathy for those people is gone.
Yeah exactly. He's clearly just a troll trying to get leftists/liberals to sit out because ISSUE wasn't immediately addressed. Literally that's a right wing tactic. Lol.
I still regularly play baseball and ice hockey. I do martial arts as part of my job (I work in stunts in LA), and I love going hiking and staying healthy.
But sure, watching people actually do things with their body and playing a game somehow is just a foreign fucking concept to people on this site.
Would you rather people watch video game competitions or something in their spare time?
Brain in a box literally posts like someone doing the exact thing I'm talking about. Funny huh?
There's an easier way to just say you suck at physical things.
Posting something like this just makes you look really bitter.
Israel needs to stop bombing children. Full stop.
