Are these dumb bombs dropped by a bomber aircraft? That would require aircraft to fly over to Moscow without being shot down. Ukraine doesn't really have many (any?) bombers. These long-range missions couldn't be done by fighters.
Or do you mean missiles? What kind of missiles? Ballistic missiles? Cruise missiles? Which missiles with the range necessary to reach Moscow are you suggesting they use?
Or do you mean drones? These are being used, but Moscow is far for drones to reach and has a decent amount of air defense systems in place.
Generally speaking the USA is able to bomb countries like Iran with relative impunity is because they attain air superiority. One of the defining features of the Ukraine war is that neither side has been able to attain air superiority, thus actual aircraft have played a limited role. Instead the air war has been fought using drones and missiles, not bombs.

I'm not sure I understand this. Small scale fluctuations are the easiest things to achieve, in fact they occur spontaneously. It's the large scale fluctuations that would be difficult to achieve.
For example if you have a room filled with air, then changing the temperature of all the air in the room would require doing a lot of work or transferring a lot of heat to the entire room. But on the microscale, if you were to look at a random 1 micrometer cube volume of the air, then you should expect temperature fluctuations to occur all the time, even without the addition of heat or work to the room.
It's like staring at static on a tv screen. The overall shade of the entire screen is middle gray and over time stays gray, but unsurprisingly individual pixels will fluctuate randomly between pure black and pure white. Small scale fluctuations occur spontaneously.
No offense, but that's it? A logo appears? There's no motion graphics or anything? No 3D model of the artifact pops up with swirling colored gases leaking out? Just a flat, white SVG.
That increase in overall launches matches the increase by SpaceX alone, which performed 134 Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches in 2024, up from 96 in 2023. The company performed more orbital launches than the rest of the world combined.
Yeah I get it, I don't really have personal social media accounts, but I'd open them for a business.
If you're going to go the content production route then that's another whole ball of wax. Can be very good for business if it takes off, but you'd have to figure out your strategy for that and execute on it. Customer builds or just stuff you're building in general can be good. It shows off the process and generates trust/desirability. If someone buys a custom piece, it's kind of nice to have its story fully documented.
But content production, editing, publishing and social media interaction takes time, skill & effort. It can be quite the commitment to do it right.
I'm sure there's different ways to generate sales, hopefully you can find something that will work for you. Some kind of platform to get the word out will help. Maybe you can find a niche and develop a reputation through word of mouth. You'll need some kind of sales and marketing strategy, whatever it is.
It sounds like you have experience with the back of the house stuff. Logistics, supply chain, production, etc. Customer facing side is very different. Just be realistic about what that's going to take.
It's certainly possible to do this. Just beware that building furniture and woodworking is a very different skill than running a business.
Running a business means endless sales and marketing and customer service and follow ups and dealing with vendors and stocking supplies, managing inventory, doing taxes, handling finances, managing partners and employees, renting space, maintenance, payroll, etc.
Just be realistic about how much of the job is actually building things and how much of it is going to be about... everything else.
It sounds like you're trapped inside a media bubble that's feeding these positions and stories to you. Don't confuse the stories people are talking about with your own life.
There's always been crappy stuff going on. There's always been amazing stuff going on. The human race is not dying. Some stuff gets better, some stuff gets worse. If you hyper focus on all the bad stuff and outrage that the algorithms are shoving down your throat then you're going to get pretty crappy. It's like trying to live off of sugar.
Retake your agency and live your life; be yourself. Don't go crazy obsessing over yet another doomsday scenario someone is spinning for clicks.
What are "regular bombs?"

Man, that's too bad. There's some decent potential here if they could get it to work. You'd think this kind of AR stuff would be pretty robust by now.

Holy shit.
Yep, makes sense. Thanks for your efforts!
Great list, thanks for putting that together!

This emulator rocks. Anyone know of a similar emulator for TI84 Plus CE?
