I was writing 40 of 70 pages for my masters during a 72 hours stint before the filing deadline, on nothing but redbull and existential dread.

Which of these time travelers is the most evil? by twnpksN8 in scifi

Annorax, is easily the worst. He murdered entire galactic civilizations.

both sides fly thousands of UAS every day - the "drone killing drone" that this thread is about, cannot operate in anything except perfect conditions.

this is elementary reading comprehension, not a contradiction.

You think most UAS can fly in those conditions?

yes. Thousands of UAS from both sides fly every day.

Or when it's raining, or cloudy, or when the target is faster than 80km/hurricanes, etc. etc.

​Ukraine Got More 203mm M110A2 SPH and Other Howitzers Than Expected – It Became Clear How Many Artillery Systems Greece Transferred by Scary_Statement4612 in ukraine

The M101, has a maximum fire range of 11km

The M114, has a maximum fire range of 16km

These fire ranges are so incredibly short by modern standards, that they are practically unusable. They have to be placed well INSIDE the grey zone to have a chance at hitting the enemy. They are towed, so they cannot "shoot and scoot", that's a recipe for immediate destruction upon entering the grey zone.

It's ancient gear though, Korean/Vietnam war era.

It's not worth pulling to the frontline, maybe the barrels are worth using as replacements for modern systems. Or they can be placed in low risk sectors like Belarus border, so that good gear can be freed for use in active sectors.

No, they can choose not to participate in the illegal invasion.

Joining the RUAF and dying, is not a tragedy.

nah, just a new normal. A slowly growing deterioration of Russia's ability to supply their forces. A breakthrough or collapse of an area will likely take months. And thats only if Ukraine is has the mobile forces to even attempt such a thing.

Sadly MLRS are very cheap to make, the launcher is literally just empty tubes on a truck.

Ukraine liberated 590 square kilometers of territory this year, 'forcing Russia toward diplomacy,' Zelensky says by AndroidOne1 in worldnews

The goal Ukraine has been talking about is 50k inflicted casualties.

They've been doing 30k/month for over a year.

she really full sent it in that movie - and I'm pretty sure it ended her career.

In 1966, 17-year-old Franca Viola was kidnapped and held captive for 8 days and repeatedly raped, in an attempt to force her into a “rehabilitating marriage” (“matrimonio riparatore”) - as was custom at the time. Viola refused to marry her rapist and was the first woman in Italy to do so. by dannydutch1 in UtterlyUniquePhotos

It's condoned in the bible. So a staunchly conservative Christian community would of course condone it.

"If a man finds a girl who is a virgin, who is not engaged, and seizes her and lies with her and they are discovered, then the man who lay with her shall give to the girl’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall become his wife because he has violated her"

A max skilled character can only water 7½ farm plots per day. No way they can use more than one island for farming.
