After seeing that demo of the drone bursting over a pick up truck, I wonder the developers high five each other like "f yeah!"
edit: to be clear I'm not anti-gun, and I understand needing to protect, USA is probably what it is because of things like the 7th fleet so I can enjoy my life.
idk moral highground too, can always counter that like "do you donate all of your spare money to needy people"
the challenges involved are interesting, recently was watching a video on crosspol jamming for example
somebody has to do it
The Air Force’s use of Star Wars IP, specifically their use of the Millennium Falcon in the Kessel Run project, is also enraging.
> it makes a mockery of the things that Tolkien stood for and I hate it
What are you referring to? Do you think Tolkien was a pacifist?
On the contrary, the books are negative towards under-militarized societies (Rohan, Gondor, isolationist Elves, complacent Men).
They commonly underscore the need for watchfulness, preparation, and strength against evil adversaries.
Which things does it mock? Tolkien served in WW1 and trained to be a code breaker in WW2. I feel he may have seen value in military technology.
Andruil, Palantir... it makes a mockery of the things that Tolkien stood for and I hate it.
