@zephray_wenting How does it look in sunlight? Is it usable outside?

Sometimes you see a pilot and instantly know they were a night stalker

Icelandair pilot under investigation after flying at a low altitude over the town of Vestmannaeyjar on Saturday.

The Boeing 757 was on a scheduled flight from Frankfurt when the pilot on his last flight went on a sightseeing flight over his childhood home in the Westman Islands without the knowledge or permission of the company.

Chief Flight Officer at Icelandair Linda Gunnarsdóttir said in a statement, "This is just a very serious matter that we will look into here internally. It's just the case in aviation that everything is very rigid in work processes, checklists and other things like that, what we do in normal passenger flights, and it doesn't fall within that framework."

Linda says she expects passengers to have been informed about the sightseeing flight, but she cannot say that yet. She is also unable to comment at this time on the consequences for the pilot, who is leaving the company. The matter is, as previously stated, under consideration by the company.

@AndrewPerpetua @GrokyG32556 I agree on the cooperation of the priv and gov sectors, but innovation can come from both.
Gov can run at a loss for longer if a lot of R&D is required, but private has additional incentive due to competition.
But it varies from one market to another.

Rick Kane on X posted these incredible photos.

The SR-71 model High chroma photo of SR-71’s incredibly complex engine. This engine belongs to airframe 61-7975 at the March Field Air Museum in Riverside, California.
Rick Kane on Twitter has a 3D print of the JP58 / spike/ inlet, as another person has done. The pictures attached are from their post.

Ted Kroupis is looking for Rick Kane to share his pictures.
I posted the pictures because they’re incredibly clear for those who model and 3D print.
Thank you, Ted, for sending me these photographs.

An amazing article came out yesterday.
Seven German journalism students, as a continuation of their OSINT course project, tracked the movements of ships with Russian crews off the coasts of the Netherlands and Germany and linked them to swarms of drones appearing over European military airfields and other strategic sites.

The guys not only analyzed thousands of data points, but also used leaked documents, established connections with sources in European agencies, and drove 2,500 km across three countries chasing one of the ships – even launching their own drone to fly over it.

At the end of the article, there’s precise data on the vessels, so you can follow them yourself.

This is journalism of the highest order – straight from the bureau of weights and measures.

the fastest way to become useful:

pick one hard domain and tear it apart until the pieces feel obvious.

you don’t need talent.
you need immersion.

bury yourself in the primitives.
understand the lowest-level units of the craft so deeply that higher layers become trivial.

every real skill is built this way:
circuits → hardware intuition
calculus → control systems
mechanics → robotics
algorithms → systems design

once the primitives click, complexity collapses.
most people run from difficulty. they jump to frameworks, shortcuts, abstractions. then wonder why they never become dangerous.

stop stacking conveniences.
strip everything down.
learn the fundamentals until the world becomes transparent.

the people who win aren’t faster or smarter.
they simply know the roots, not just the branches.

I also screen-recorded the evidence, in case they decide to wipe it later.

@0xinternetchild If you'd bet on tomorrow's weather and someone's forecast started showing rain for a moment you'd call that a fraud as well?
Isn't it what you get for betting real money on random predictions and speculations?
