A Ukrainian MAGURA unmanned surface vessel has been fitted with a launcher for remotely controlled STING interceptor drones. The launcher consists of 3х6 blocks of interceptors, allowing a single USV to carry 18 anti-Shahed drones.

I'm furious now. Fuming. God knows how many family farms Disney destroyed by modeling this foolishness. Thankfully this movie still does a good job of showing kids how to wipe out a shitload of Huns with minimal expenditure of ammo.

The trucks are also booby trap laden. Extremely unpleasant Wile E. Coyote shit. In 1991 some of those devices went off. I made the accident report available after scanning it from the UNM DoE/NNSA FOIA reading room: osf.io/2jqnm 1/2

Hacks come in all flavors. One of my favorite local hacks of the summer is that somehow our local fine arts museum has transformed itself into the most happening "night club" in town on Wednesday evenings. They bring in DJs from 17:00 to 20:00; no cover charge. Ever been to a local art museum event

Today in 1965, at Titan II ICBM launch complex 373-4 north of Searcy, Arkansas, as 55 civilian contractors were modifying the missile silo to better survive a nuclear attack, a flash fire and dense smoke asphyxiated 53 men, the deadliest accident to ever involve a US nuclear weapon system.
A copy of the front page of the August 10, 1965, edition of "The Daily Times" (Salisbury, Maryland) with the banner headline, “53 DIE IN MISSILE SILO BLAST; Explosion, Fire Trap Civilian Workers in Site.” Below the headline are a black and white graphic showing the layout of the Titan II complex and a photograph of three women standing near the site, one of whom is awaiting news about the fate of her husband. And below the graphic is an additional article, "Laurel Airman Describes Disaster At Missile Site."A color map, oriented to the north and published in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, shows the location of launch complex 373-4 more than 10 miles north of Searcy, Arkansas, along the Little Red River. A note says: "The remains of the Titan II silo—where 53 men perished in a fire—is located on private land, more than 10 miles north of Searcy in White County. It was the site of the worst nuclear weapon accident in the history of the United States."

Listen to this king at a Huntington City Council meeting on Flock Cameras:
"I'm not gonna waste your time, I'm kinda hungry, but one last thing. Every single Flock camera has about 2-3 Ibs of copper and about 1-2 grams of gold. Do with that information what will."

1. There are LOTS of blatantly anti-Catholic Chick tracts - I remember seeing these as a kid in Georgia in the mid-90s, and my parents were atheists/agnostics. 2. If you don’t know what a Chick tract is, you may be very sheltered from the reality of how insane most American evangelicals are.
