WARNING - do not click on latest link from alleged Optus hacker. IT security experts confirm it “tries to use drive-by and explicit download techniques to install executable files - this appears to be an attempt to capitalise on the publicity from the hack to setup a future hack”

A great brief from @CSIS on the #Ukraine situation outlining 🇷🇺 goals, potential actions and some response options. https://t.co/bC0anT02kc

Discovered this excellent narrative series from @ChasAHKnight while browsing the @wavellroom. Very interesting concepts for how uncrewed and autonomous systems can be applied to littoral and urban operations. https://t.co/KtlQQBJNfU

@C_Bulow @LEGO_Group Even more surprised my AT-ATs didn’t fall off the top

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

My #earthquake detection system from @LEGO_Group performed admirably today

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

Not my usual lockdown entertainment but glad I signed up. A great course from @UNSWbusiness on leadership styles, decision making under uncertain conditions, sustainability and communication.

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

This reminded me of an ASPI article by @Marcus_ASPI about the B-21 as a potential long-range strike platform for the #AusAirForce . Perhaps a variant of the already in-service Poseidon could be another option.

The case for stripping the P-8 Poseidon down into an RB-8 multi-role arsenal ship:

Look out for calls or texts claiming to be from eBay or Amazon. Scammers say you have purchased a large item or gift card and attempt to access your device to steal your personal information when you dispute the purchase. Just hang up or delete the message.

Excellent weather for some #AirForce100 flyovers. Happy birthday @AusAirForce

An excellent study of the value of alliances and how they can adapt to meet competition below the traditional threshold of war by @MiraRappHooper

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

@zavradecker @peterwsinger @august_cole Was also thinking Crab Droids from Utapau

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

Another fantastic piece of ‘useful fiction’ from @peterwsinger and @august_cole. Well done @FoW_ADFA team for putting on a great event.

#AusAirForce F-35s putting on some morning entertainment in Canberra #avgeek

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

Feels like yesterday that I started at #ADFA. Made awesome mates and learned some pretty groovy stuff. Epic flyover @AusAirForce

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

@SHARP_CR Congratulations Sir

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

Auftragstaktik and PME galore. The Prussians were a pretty cool bunch certainly worth studying. @TobiasRaimondo @tevanrich

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

Nuggets of wisdom are my favourite kind of nugget and Call Sign Chaos is a whole buffet. Many thanks to @SHARP_CR for bringing it to my attention.

[Hugo McMeekin @HugoMcMeekin]

Not used to being interviewed but an interesting experience. @FoW_ADFA is always available to take excess kit off your hands 😉. https://t.co/rCXIJV4jy9

@cr_wood1 @WomenFutureOps Just give me the word @cr_wood1. Think I have this event organising business down pat now.
