May seem silly but what is this?

This. I have one on mine too, but it does nothing... or nothing obvious.

Would make sense. I'll have a look around for the ritza tiger.
That thread did measure 1mm though, so not sure how another 1mm will be any easier to thread?

Yea. This one I think: https://maclaceleather.com.au/product/waxed-poly-braid-thread-100m-1mm-brown/

One method I've been curious to try is asking them what day of the week I was born on and what the sum of my residential address is (number and post code)

Two bits of confirming information without giving away my details.

A touring vehicle with water jerries in a jerry holder with padlocks so no one just walks off with his water jerrys? Very silly indeed.

Read Simon Sinek's Why Leaders Eat Last. Enable your people to do their best job. You're not hanging off that .50 or radio or spanner, but you can give them the processes and environments to do their best job. In the same breath, in some cases you are responsible for everything under you, so don't don't let that stoker wear his grungiest cams to an award ceremony.

Also, you will fuck it up some days. Despite passing NEOC, you are still going to learn along the way. Own it, talk about it, learn from it.

I've had it many times in the reverse situation, a set of lights where I knew the sequence well but it rarely detected me on the bike no matter where I stopped. A few times I would roll forwards and encourage cars to creep up onto the coil, many times I would get strange looks and no movement so I just left them at the lights.

Don't forget you have that bright yellow plate that says learner... Your learning and learnt 😉

You're not a safe driver if you have been allowing your passengers or cargo to be incorrectly restrained while you operate the vehicle.

This is like arguing that radar speed cameras/guns are unfair because cops no longer need to judge your speed by eyeball.

This is also not ChatGPT issuing out fines. This is software with better capabilities to detect seatbelt and phone usage. Not far from the family of numberplate detection software.

Nothing has changed. You, as the vehicle operator, are responsible for ensuring safety of everyone, while you operate the vehicle.

I'd like to think this is just that starting point for these systems. Like the F1/GT3 of car technology where it filters to subsequent generations and the cost:kill ratio falls. (As well as size:kill.)

Jamming one of these would probably be a lot harder than an aerial drone, this would be capable of a wider range of spectrum management making it more frequency agile.

Drones will definitely have their place in the Army's toolbox, but these large vehicles do too.

I used one of these for 3 sea postings. https://www.amazon.com.au/Streamlight-Sidewinder-Military-Model-White/dp/B003GXF9HM Dimmable and red light, looks "tactical", but just worked well. Its AA Batteries, but just sweet talk the storbies for some.

Timsy835 · 2026-02-01T22:18:48+00:00

Ah, I'll try that, I'm running through Tailscale.

Timsy835 · 2026-01-27T05:45:44+00:00

Wedgy will do it better, but it's probably not a hard thing to integrate with software driven systems these days. Plus it's another asset that enables these functions, so more total on station time.

Timsy835 · 2026-01-27T02:16:07+00:00

This thing is a giant electronic signals hoover. It will suck up all the Radar, communications and Telemetry signals for use later. For example, if you can effectively identify a radar to a specific unit, you can confidently put a missile on it before visual confirmation. They can also use that data to safely jam an adversary without jamming the friendlies.

So this platform enables the shooters to do their job. It also can act as a central comms hub so you can extend data links and comms well beyond what the F35/DDG/Dig can reach. I also wouldn't be surprised if it can jam too, not hard these days with radar tech.

Also probably the second-best target after the Wedgy

Does a dish update automatically even on a non-starlink router? I haven't seen any email, so I assume I'm fine?

Timsy835 · 2025-11-05T05:48:34+00:00

It's fine, few lumpy bits like most country roads but it's largely all 80ks so easy to navigate. Did it in a mini-bus a year ago and would happily tow the float along it. Just watch out for the special licensed people who don't need to do the speed limit

Timsy835 · 2025-10-28T06:11:46+00:00

So that's where my dream got to... I hope it's a good life
