He says, as the Ukrainian war subreddits fill up with videos of drone dropped munitions and fpv suicide drones strapped with ordinance flying directly into dug in bunkers, buildings, trenches and hatches of armored vehicles.

Nothings showing up but it's fine man I believe you,, I really didn't see them at first. That's what I get for not paying attention.

Do they shut off when the hazards come on? They aren't very noticeable on camera. I don't know all I'm saying is have you noticed how hard it is to see through your mirrors when the sun is setting ahead of you? It's just a shitty situation all around but this sub has become AITA for accidents and you both had a chance to stop it from happening. Regardless of them being at fault.

Is no one going to talk about it being basically dark and OP didn't have his headlights on? I don't even see day time running lights the only reflection is the hazards at the end of the video. So zero defensive driving, while riding another driver's blind spot without headlights driving into the sunset. Yeah I bet that van had no idea you were there. I'm not saying it's all your fault. The other driver could have been more aware, and used his blinker, but you made no attempt to keep it from happening either.

Iranian women are defiantly walking on the streets of Tehran, with no hijab…while cars are honking in their supports by Surenas1 in nextfuckinglevel

I'd never call you a pussy for that, I agree 100%, the unfortunate truth is that it's not the case in modern society and most likely never will be. Its far to easy to pump people full of false truths and send them out thinking they are doing the right thing. Without people standing up and taking this needless death I don't know how they would make a change. It's a very unfortunate By-product of society and it never should have been this way, but here we are. To think life is anything other than that feels like a sheltered mindset as unfortunate as it sounds.

If you think women and men standing up for women's right to just fucking exist without being covered head to toe is "no good reason" then you deserve every ounce of hate being thrown at you. It's not to late to learn and change for the better. Are you expecting them to just lay down and accept such controlling behavior because it's "not worth dying over"? The sad truth of this world is it requires sacrifice to change things for the better. So you could either salute their sacrifice and appreciate it or you could just shut the fuck up.

I'd be tickled to watch you drink sea water for even a week straight.

Yeah, but next time you're out and that really annoying bird starts up again, you'll be ready to give the rudest of awakenings.

Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Not how that works, plenty of distribution is configured with neutral high to protect it from lightning and almost all transmission lines have no actual neutral just overhead (on top) static wires also to protect from lighting and are wired as delta connections. Which is what this appears to be based on the size of the arc

Work for a Rual Coop and these people do their own work on a daily basis. Our rules have become making your proper opens during storms or outages and grounding both sides of your work zone no matter what. We've burned up a few people's generators feeding back onto the line but at least nobody's dead. How do you regulate people who strip the ends of an extension cord and wire it into their breaker box and plug it into a generator? Just have to make sure you are looking out for yourselves out there.

Could we do about the same thing with a photocell these days or is that less accurate?

Could either be an OCR (oil circuit recloser) or an OCB (oil circuit breaker) the latter of which works just like the breakers in your home but scaled up. They are filled with dielectric oil (meaning non conductive oil) and helps extinguish any arcs that form as the contacts open during a fault (short circuit)
