You dont know what the word payload means.

Payload - the load carried by a vehicle exclusive of what is necessary for its operation especially : the load carried by an aircraft or spacecraft consisting of people or things (such as passengers or instruments) necessary to the purpose of the flight … rockets carrying … a payload of Starlink satellites. —Rick Neale Their objective was to size the airplane according to its intended payload. —Clive Irving

In this case the Payload is the warhead. It is a kamikaze drone.

Lots of people didn't read the article...lots of bad replies here.

"Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) documented six more cases of Russian forces using munitions with uranium components against Ukraine, found in Geran-2 attack drones that struck Chernihiv Oblast between April and June 2026.

... Russia mounts old Soviet R-60 air-to-air missiles on the Geran-2 drones, and the uranium sits in those missiles' warheads. The purpose is the arms race in the sky: the R-60 turns a strike drone into an air-to-air weapon meant to kill the Ukrainian aircraft and helicopters that intercept incoming drone swarms. What the SBU is now documenting is that the radioactive warhead configuration is not a one-off but a recurring feature of the strikes."

The uranium is in the warhead for armor piercing capabilities. Everything hit by it then becomes radioactive. And because of the setup, the drone parts that remain especially are radioactive because it is a kamikaze attack. The uranium explodes out in all directions.

From the article:

"Cameras consist of three parts. An $800 camera, $500 pole and $350 solar panel.

....Sovern told him solar panels from the equipment were being used for camping.

Sovern is an engineer and mechanic in the U.S. Air Force according to his defense attorney Cole Roberts."

Sounds like the flock solar panels and batteries can be used for powering other things if you know what you're doing.

What about system of a down?

They're obviously very left leaning in everything they've done. And yet it turned out the drummer was a magat all along and the only thing they rest of the band can get him to agree on anymore is that the Armenian genocide was wrong.

I get the sentiment and as soon as something like that comes out the rest of the band may need to re-evaluate the band. But with soad and how openly liberal they've been consistently with their songs and politics outside of the band, would you still think soad is a maga band?

I personally think the drummer is a dumbass with 0 critical thinking skills. The band is still unapologetically left leaning in it's songs and messaging despite the drummer.

Stuff like that doesn't always work though, at least on free versions in my experience. I use Ai to write flowery emails to people to sound nice when I normally wouldn't bother and I used it to negotiate buying my car. I would continually tell it not to use - dashes while writing emails. And inevitably after 1 answer it would go back to using them.

Maybe paid versions are different but on free ones you have to continually correct it.
