That's a nice upgrade, I'd like to see one land a hit in protected airspace though, bigger size usually means easier to track and intercept.

The ICE raids will continue unpaid

What a brave effort. How can the people be so brave while their governments are such cowards?

This is Israel vs Palaistine locally, but rich vs poor on an even larger scale.

Wow that's incredible! Bucket list trip to see that from Norway when in full swing but to see those that far down south must have been amazing

Hahah indeed I hadn't noticed that!

Alright I think I've got another one :)

I propped the phone backwards at an angle against an old chair that I found there and very gently touched the screen button to take the photo, which is awkward because you can't really see it because the display is away from you so that the cameras can point upwards lol.

In hindsight I could've used my watch as a remote shutter but it didn't occur to me then hahah

The free version of Lightroom on iOS.

Bumped up the contrast, boosted the shadows, adjusted the colors and added some noise reduction and sharpening.

Yeah this is generally how low light and HDR camera modes work - by taking multiple photos and then using a technique called "Stacking" to average out noise and improve signal (useful light).

You can also just take 20-30 second exposures if your phone has a "pro" camera mode, then do the rest of the stacking with other tools. The astro mode simply does everything for you, but you get less control over the processing.

I just played around with contrast, saturation of each color, a bit of shadows/ blacks and exposure, a bit of dehaze filter and some noise reduction if I remember correctly.

Awesome! I love how phone cameras these days have dedicated astro modes, you can get really good results with some tinkering.

I downloaded the photo and pushed it a bit further in iOS free Lightroom, you can squeeze a bit more faint detail out of them, especially if your phone can save RAW format photos.

It's the difference between a weapon designed to win a government contract with maximum profit margins vs a drone designed to fit a specific purpose and battlefield.

One was built by necessity, the other by committee.

It could happen the other way around is what I'm saying.

Ukraine demonstrating a nuclear device and a missile capable of carrying it will dramatically change how agreeable everyone becomes to negotiations lol

Yeah the Bayraktar was pretty amazing early on, today though ukraine is pumping out thousands of smaller drones for a fraction of the cost to cover pretty much all use cases from human targets to armored and heavily armored targets, drone to drone air defense, you name it, with the added benefit of them being basically impossible to intercept at a long range.

Still, major props to Turkiye for those, they made a huge difference in the early stages, along with Javelin missiles destroying Russian armor columns

Ukraine will emerge as the largest west-aligned weapons manufacturer in the world, their drone warfare and modern battlefield innovations are second to none at this point.

I remember when the war started looking at the switchblade drones on the news as this futuristic cutting edge weapon, then the first mavics with zip tied grenades and mortar shells appeared and now we have seen just insane advances in radio controlled, fiber optic controlled and completely autonomous drones, from short range to extremely long range, drone carriers, submersible drones, wheeled gun rc vehicles, it's insane.

I bet you anything that Ukraine either has or is planning a nuclear weapons program to acquire their own nukes. They have the scientific and engineering capacity, as well as the resources for it.

In case people don't know, this has been happening very often for decades and is not really newsworthy unless someone pulls a stunt, like that Russian fighter who almost collided with the US escort a few months ago

Let me guess, are we holding it wrong again?

Rare antitylenol groups win
