does anyone have experience in using reddit posts as a data source, especially with the plaftorm's updated ToS? I would like to analyse a certain subreddit and images posted there, but I am wondering how to juggle reddit's data policy, GDPR and research integrity. All hints are welcome! Thanks :)

Russians have begun manufacturing new types of mines. An Explosive Ordnance Disposal team from the UVTS discovered a new model being used by Russian occupiers for remote mining of residential areas in Kherson.

I wrote a little somethingnabout the proliferation and utilisation of additive manufacuring in the military technology sector, looking into primary production of armaments, the use of AM for maintenance, repair and overhaul, and into its use for non-state actors to self-manufacture armament

Worth a read! Documenting observations of military innovation practices in the Dutch Robots and Autonomous Systems unit I saw the mentioned Milrem THeMIS UGV last year at ELROB, and slow progress, malfunctions, frustration next to passion for the technology, were characterising UGVs usage and trials

One of the rare accounts - perhaps the first comprehensive and detailed one I have come across, that discusses the operational drawbacks and technical limitations of FPV drones, as well as issues with non-standardised or DIY equipment at the frontlines in Ukraine warontherocks.com/2025/06/i-fo...

I always thought that RMA´s revolutionary annoyance to me could not be topped. But reading research about additive manufacturing is even more insufferable, seems like there is no other word than REVOLUTIONARY to describe any new developments or research. What do people think a revolution is??

Articles like this leave me speechless sometimes. Autonomy does not change everything in combat engineering. Besides not really justifiying the urgent need for robotics in US land warfare, it absolutely ignores the technical complexities of autonomy in the land domain, i.e. EW, 1/3

Autonomy changes everything about combat engineering
Sending robotic vehicles into the breach saves lives by removing humans from one of the most dangerous places on the battlefield.

Klare Worte, die die Konsequenzen von Deutschlands jetzigem Handeln darstellen. Ein dringendes Umschwenken, mehr Druck und ein Waffenembargo gegen Israel ist nötig, um das Leid in Gaza und der West Bank schnellstmöglich zu beenden. youtu.be/WZHXl5R5yzo?...

UNRWA: "Out of the 91 attempts the UN has made to deliver aid to besieged north #Gaza between 6 October and 25 November, 82 have been denied and 9 impeded. The conditions for survival are diminishing for the 65,000-75,000 people estimated to remain there."

am not able to choose one good quote out of this because there are too many highly recommend to read. @rbarretttaylor.bsky.social is explaining the trap of emerging technologies' abilities to increase the efficiency of warfare and -fighting and the technological determinism powering such narrative

"It's a disconcerting partnership that sets up the AI industry's growing ties with the US military-industrial complex, a worrying trend that should raise all kinds of alarm bells given the tech's many inherent flaws — and even more so when lives could be at stake."

It remains to be seen how the transport of those mines will be handled, which according to the convention is forbidden through a signatory‘s territory. Considering Germany‘s passiveness to prevent an earlier transfer through it’s territory, for the sake of the ban, this should be closely monitored
