Primary issues I can see with retrieval are tangling/kinking and re-spooling/splicing. The fibers are insanely thin and the drones are flying in between trees, not exactly a smooth path for retrieval.

I saw a picture a few weeks ago of a field in Ukraine, taken from amongst an adjacent patch of trees, and it just looks like spiderwebs. Dozens and dozens of fine spider web strands, each one delivering a drone into the meat grinder. Terrible, beautiful, and such a fucking waste.

Fr if anyone in the EU wants to host me I'll be your (32m,pan,switch,cd) live-in maid while I job hunt. Please inquire within.

I don't think the United States in general gives a flying fuck about non-whites, now or in the past.

I give a flying fuck though, so I'm gonna get pissed when I see a basic lack of respect for any person. I'm going to get pissed and rail against every single erosion of rights I can, right up until I get the fuck out of this insane country.

You misunderstand; getting stuck there is exactly what the senator should have done if they wouldn't let him take Mr. Garcia.

This is a falsely accused, illegally deported human stuck in an El Salvadorian mega-prison. Mr. Garcia is incredibly lucky to be alive at all. Can you imagine being in that scenario, meeting with your US state senator, then being lead back into lock-up‽ They had zero justification for sending him there, zero justification to hold him there, and zero justification to keep him one second longer.

What was the point of Van Hollen flying down there personally if not to bring him home? Leaving Mr. Garcia behind is tacit approval for disregarding due process.

Am I the only one concerned that the senator didn't forcibly bring him home? I feel like a US Marshall or three should have accompanied Mr. Garcia and the senator out the front door and onto the jet all the cons are complaining about.

I'm not German dude, I'm an American.

The support behind Israel in their genocide of the Palestinians is despicable.

Any support of any genocide anywhere is despicable.

Can we please stop excusing crimes against humanity when they happen to people we don't like?

Hey, this is excellent, thank you! Definitely going to chase this down.

Fuck you guys, learn to read and research, fuck!

Never has there been any compensation paid to descendants of slavery

I'll let you have this one

Even today, there is still compensation paid to descendants of Holocaust victims, and the time difference between the end of slavery and the Holocaust is less than that between the Holocaust and today.

So? The US is in the wrong for not compensating, Germany is actually trying at least.

not the 20 million Slavs.

We're discussing the Holocaust perpetuated by the Nazi regime against Jewish people and other so-called 'undesireable' humans, not Stalin's crimes against the people he was ostensibly responsible for. Stay on topic.

Even though Slavs are a more homogeneous ethnic group than Jews. It was just inconvenient during the cold war to see the USSR and its citizens as a victim worthy of compensation.

Why are you using ethnic homogeneity as an argument in your favor? Especially when trying to minimize the Jewish Holocaust in favor of painting the USSR as the victim‽

The Nazi's never had popular democratic support for the war and genocide

The Germans of WW2 never reached that level of moral depravity, only a few Nazi's did

Source? Pretty sure we had some pretty public trials over those claims already.

I don't even disagree with you about Gaza, you've just got incredibly shit takes on history.

If his home instance is any indication, this absolutely tracks for the Midwest US. I grew up in the northern Midwest and drove past a Confederate flag frequently for the better part of 15 years. I got to thinking about it; I recognized it as a dog whistle for racism, but did the people who flew it so proudly recognize it as such?

And I realized they probably didn't. They likely saw it as a 'proud symbol of their good ole boy, "states rights fighters" Southern heritage.' and frankly, that idea bothered me at a deeper level than if they were flying that flag as a dog-whistle.

The people of Germany have taken generational responsibility for the horrendous, genocidal 3rd Reich. They own it, they condemn it, and they do their best to combat misinformation about it.

Not so for the US. We tried, briefly, a little bit, to affect and promote Reconstruction. It failed pretty spectacularly thanks to Andrew Johnson's vetoes. The ensuing decades saw white supremacists develop the Good Ole Boy myth, white-washing and denying the true reason they wanted to fracture the Union.

Jump to today; Germans arguing against anti-Semitism while the US is deporting brown people to concentration camps.

My passport arrived today, praise Satan. Trying to properly secure a work visa in the EU but will also have my bugout bag with documentation close at hand.

Speaking of; got any job opportunities for a 2 YOE mechanical engineer? Or advice on applying to Masters programs in Germany? I believe I can travel to and stay in the Schengen Zone for 90 days visa-free with the US passport, but I'm not sure if I'm able to convert that to a work permit.

Any EU friends able to help a worried AuDHD dude? I know zero people who have traveled internationally and I'm lost.

What's the source of this photo? I saw a different comment mention bodies and a satellite photo, is this what they were referring to?
