An out of the ordinary incident report from the ATSB, this one is the result of their investigation into the ditching of over 400 drones into the harbour in Melbourne during a swarm display in 2023.

I really need to figure out how to take down drones. It will be handy during the apocalypse or upcoming civil war. But at the moment it would bring me some peace and quiet.

River Ehen

Drone: DJI Flip

From 120 metres up you get a real sense of the complexity of the River Mersey. Low tide reveals all the sandbanks and the narrow channel for boats to enter the river. Totally fascinating. #drone #photography #newbrighton

Buildings burning in #Kyiv at this hour, as the city faces #drone/missile attacks 3x larger that the day #Trump came into office.

Despite Putin humiliating Trump on a daily basis:
- No new sanctions from the US
- No new weapons package allocation
- Repeated attempts to block congressionally allocated weapons packages.

Trump is #Putin's bitch.

#Trump's refusal to place any meaningful consequences onto #Putin has created a catastrophic nightmare for the people of #Ukraine, now facing #drone and #missile barrages of nearly 750 per attack.

Putin used this time as we knew he would – to build up his war machine.

#Russia launches largest #drone and #missile attack since start of the war

According to #Ukraine’s Armed Forces, Russia launched a staggering 728 #Shahed drones, seven cruise missiles, and six Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missiles in a single night

Ukrainian air defenses reportedly shot down or jammed 711 drones and all seven cruise missiles. Despite the defenses, hits were recorded in four locations, and debris fell in at least 14 areas.

The Mavic 3 Pro has been a joy to work with this first half of the year. The 70mm camera option has made for some neat footage (and especially great photos).

Out of nowhere, the creative parts of my brain awakened from dormancy a couple of weeks ago. So here's a roundup of sights seen around the islands.

Since #Trump was inaugurated, the size of #Russia's #missile and #drone attacks on the people of #Ukraine have grown by 5x.

️Belgium and Turkey officially join international #drone #coalition created to support #Ukraine

I was gonna get a holybro x500 pixhawk drone for decent nerding but also not having too much diy that things end up in a corner because “too much shit to fix”. It’s not cheap but I figure the more diy stuff (I have a 3d printer as well) will come once I cut my teeth on that.

I’m interested in mapping, camera/sensor payloads and other more practical tasks.

Any other suggestions? #drones #drone

I sent a new album off to mastering, so maybe a good time to plug my first one again. It's pay-what-you-want, so please do grab it for free, but if you want to chip in for the cost of mastering the new one, that's super cool too. Moody digitalism with a pinch of unheimlichkeit. File under #ambient, #drone, #experimental, #computermusic, #postambient, #outsiderspectralism, probably some other stuff I made up, etc. and so on.

#Ukrainian #drone drops a bomb on #Russian soldiers trying to pass around anti-personnel mines on motorcycles.

The bomb triggered the mines, taking out several Russian soldiers

Major Oleh Shyriaiev, Hero of #Ukraine & front-line commander, created new Kevlar-based combat gear to shield soldiers from shrapnel & #drone-dropped explosives—not bullets. Unlike heavy armor, it’s flexible, lightweight & protects limbs/joints often exposed in trench warfare. Developed from battlefield experience, it supplements standard armor. A soldier's innovation, not industry’s—built to save lives.
