  2. Things That Are Just Annoying

    Migraine aura passed with no headache phase. That's the good news. The bad news is that when I got to use the bathroom, my lower back said that I might just think about peeing in bed next time. I've got 2 hours to go before I can take another dose.

    I suspect that there are rules in place about the make up of a "legal" bowling ball that having remote controls in would violate.
  4. Discussion of Military, real or fictional

    Both Ukraine and Russian "milbloggers" use Telegram. The Ukraine armed forces don't use it operationally, the Russians do.

    It's 79 and forecast to get no higher than 81 today.

    Small City Kansas got it Balkan and Italian migrates before the turn of the last century, well before the depression. Not that it matters much, but this part of Kansas wasn't effected by the dust bowl nearly as much as other parts, mainly due to being a miming area, not a farm area.

    Fuck. Getting migraine auras. 3 out of the last 4 were with out headache phase, so I might get lucky. Back still hurts however. so there is that.

    Just got an email from the river store. My new chair isn't due to arrive until Friday now. Less than thrilled by this. I see a lot of afternoons in bed this week.
  13. Things That Are Just Annoying

    I'm good for about 2 hours sitting in the living room chair, then my back starts to tell me that going to bed might not be a bad idea. Gonna finish my tea an do just that.

    OK. Back to big bore Anti Air Artillery. They tried this in WWII and it was no where near as effective as they thought it would be pre war. Now shooting at faster smaller targets. Of course the ground based guidance systems are a lot better and this fires much faster rounds, but I suspect this is gonna be only useful against low and slow targets, like drones and helicopters, where small to mid sized machine guns and auto cannons seem to be doing the job in Ukraine. https://www.thedefensepost.com/2024/07/17/us-army-air-defense/?utm_content=cmp-true
  15. The Weather.

    I know this may be TMI, but today is the 1st day in 2 weeks that it's cool enough in the living room that I need to wear sweatpants vs just my shorts to "work" on the computer.

    If it pisses off Russian Mil-bloggers and Russian leadership it's probably a good thing. https://kyivindependent.com/why-russian-milboggers-and-propagandists-are-freaking-out-about-the-telegram-ceo-arrest/

    I'm fairly sure that either a self aware or remotely controlled bowling ball is against the rules.

    The Canadian armed services often joke that their army and air force is only good for attacking the US, given their total lack of long ranged transports.

    I'm aware of ethnic neighborhoods, it just you get some odd things sometimes. You would never think that town in the south east part of Kansas would have a largish Balkan and Italian population, both of which Small City Kansas has.

    Well, yeah, if you want a sub-optimal muzzle velocity you can do that.
