The Dutch call this "niksen"

I'd go further and suggest that alarms are often *necessary*

He also draws attention to the fact that many so-called "alarmist" climate scientists tend to downplay the dire state of things because they don't want to be dismissed as alarmists The "alarmist" versions of climate change are often actually the sanitised versions

For a lot of people, social reality feels more real than ecological reality Until the ecological reality punctures their social reality, that is

Imagine if someone wrote a science-based book called *The Uninhabitable Earth* SIX YEARS AGO

Quite an empty phrase that could be used to "explain" literally any kind of failure in any context

And in both cases, the epic "security failure" was never explained and no one was held accountable for it

I've generally found myself more concerned with fit, colour and quality more than anything else, and I've become uncomfortable wearing shirts with writing and/or attention-seeking pictures on them

So you're saying all we need to do is build a time machine?

You should probably get guns for the cats too

Won't stop unless it is stopped

More than enough live rural to overwhelm the cities if they arrive in numbers. All the cities have terminal housing supply shortages as it is. Parks will fill with tents, stadiums will be repurposed, and of course there'll be fewer people growing food to supply the cities

The Australian cities will be overwhelmed by rural climate refugees within 15 years imho

The more intense the reality of ecological collapse becomes, the more fear will drive people into increasingly divergent socially constructed reality

The technology made possible by the black goo has been literally instrumental in putting us into ecological overshoot

Our gut instinct should have told us that the ancient powerful black goo beneath the ground shouldn't have been brought to the surface, set on fire, and made the basis of an entire global civilisation, but here we are

Australian here. None of our broadcast media are courageous enough to use the f word

You're at the "What kind of American are you?" point now

Same rule applies to Donald's underpants

Wow, I don't see how me being "into" UFOs (I actually study the UFO phenomenon from a sociological and philosophical perspective) in any way prevents you from providing a source for your claim that the drones we're discussing are "tiny little things" but ok

You have misunderstood my question. I asked you for a source verifying that the drones we're discussing here (ie, the ones making incursions in Denmark, Norway, Finland) are "small" - as you claimed they are

A Wiki link to a specific model of drone does not show that this model is part of the incursions we're discussing. This really should be obvious to you. Observing flying objects that appear drone-like is not the same as tracking them. Or identifying them. Again, this should be obvious to you.

Can you point to some sources that verify the size of the drones we're discussing? The information I posted above isn't meant to show it's "so easy" to identify and track drones, but rather to counter your claim that identifying and tracking drones is "almost impossible"

We're obviously not talking about "regular drones," but in any case, "regular drones" are certainly not "almost impossible" to identify and track - which 30 seconds on Google and ChatGPT clearly demonstrates. Even "irregular" or malicious drones can be identified and tracked using non-cooperative detection, such as: • Radar: ground-based radars detect the drone’s echo and provide range/azimuth (and sometimes elevation). Modern small-target radars tuned for small UAVs are widely used. • RF detection / direction-finding (DF) & multilateration: sensors listen for the drone-to-controller and drone-to-pilot radio signals (RC link, Wi-Fi, telemetry). Direction-finding antennas and arrays can triangulate (multilateration) to locate both the UAV and the pilot/control station. Many operational counter-UAS solutions rely heavily on RF DF to find the pilot. • Acoustic: arrays/microphones identify and localize drones from rotor noise and acoustic signatures — useful at short range and in quieter environments (can be combined with RF). • Optical / EOIR (cameras + thermal): visual and infrared cameras track and identify drones and can provide persistent tracking and footage for evidence. Often used with automated computer-vision to classify objects. • Sensor fusion: best systems fuse radar + RF + acoustic + visual to reduce false positives and improve tracking/ID (commercial vendors and police deployments use fusion systems). • Commercial providers (e.g., Dedrone and similar) sell integrated detector suites and “sensor-fusion” platforms that correlate multiple sensor types to detect, locate and (where legal) help interdict drones and their pilots. These systems are widely used at events, prisons and critical infrastructure. • Even with Remote ID rules in place, authorities sometimes rely on non-cooperative detection when drones are non-compliant, spoofing, or when fast localization of a pilot is needed. There are ongoing challenges in giving law enforcement streamlined, rapid access to Remote ID databases and integrating that into operational workflows.

They have not been identified at all. They are being called "drones" to avoid the more accurate term, unidentified flying object, because they exhibit some drone-like qualities

>What evidence do you have that they’re “advanced”? They evade all attempts to identify and track them, indicating they represent something beyond the current state of the art

>whatever you may think about russia, they are one of the most powerful countries in the world Are they more powerful than, say, Ukraine? Because it doesn't look like it

So you're suggesting that China has given Russia some kind of advanced, secret drones, and Russia has decided to parade these around across the world in non-conflict zones where they can be observed, recorded and potentially recovered and reverse-engineered?

So you're trying to make the case that Sydney Sweeney is regular looking, not curvy, and doesn't have big tits Cased dismissed. I will not allow you to waste the court's time with this nonsense

I'd call him unhinged but I'm not sure he was ever hinged to begin with

Russia Russia Russia is a witch hunt, a total scam. The radical left lunatics have weaponised the justice department. Nobody's been tougher on Russia than Trump, that I can tell you Is this how it goes?

That's one of the worst cases of anthropocentrism I've ever seen

I often think, if this *isn't* what's happening, what else would we need to see to be convinced it *is* what's happening?

I was thinking they're advanced drones flexing and training on behalf of a shadow big tech venture planning on monetising the coming, post-government chaos

I kinda think this is what the anomalous drone incursions are all about

And yet I feel so lonely...

> we can't predict the future This is essentially science denialism - since the practical success of science is almost wholly derived from its ability to predict the future

That's Alfred Chicken

If the cheap carbs and digital entertainment (ie, bread and circuses) become inaccessible, then people will take to the streets

No agriculture without a stable climate

Nothing in our future will be easily accessible

Whatever's available until it isn't available anymore

Have a look at ["Our Hunter Gatherer Future" by John Gowdy](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0016328719303507)

Not all humans depend on grocery stores, though, and indigenous knowledge of living from the land still exists. Unfortunately that knowledge is mostly aligned with planetary conditions that are fading fast

Or the failure of one or more nuclear reactors due to under-maintenance and/or impact from extreme weather

I mean Earth will get a breather from pollution and overconsumption, but its systems have been destabilised to such an extent that many species have already gone extinct and many others (including Homo sapiens) are headed for extinction. In fact, Homo sapiens could not have evolved as a species on the planet in its current condition. Our return to hunter gatherer life will be burdened by these inhospitable conditions, unlike our predecessors who enjoyed the relative natural abundance and stability of the Holocene

Could be a tail period of hunter gatherers for a couple of hundred years before we're all gone

I highly recommend the book "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents" if this list resonates with you

If COVID taught me anything it's that the powers that be value our labor more than our lives

They're demonically possessed
