Drones At Danish Airports, A Plea For Responsible Official Response
In Europe, where this is being written, and possibly further afield, news reports are again full of drone sightings closing airports. The reports have come from Scandinavia, in particular Denmark, where sightings have been logged across the country. It has been immediately suggested that the Russians might somehow be involved, something they deny, which adds a dangerous geopolitical edge to the story.
To us here at Hackaday, this is familiar territory. Back in the last decade, we covered the saga of British airports closing due to drone sightings. In that case, uninformed hysteria played a large part in the unfolding events, leading to further closures. The problem was that the official accounts did not seem credible. Eventually, after a lot of investigation and freedom of information requests by the British drone community, there was a shamefaced admission that there had never been any tangible evidence of a drone being involved.
In the case of the Danish drone sightings, it seems that credible evidence has been shown for some of the events. The problem is this: just as we saw a few years ago in southern England, and in late 2024 in the US, such things create a fertile atmosphere for mass hysteria. Large numbers of people with no idea what a drone looks like are nervously scanning the skies. Before too long, they are seeing phantom drones everywhere, and then the danger is that a full-scale drone panic ensues over nothing.
Based on our on-the-ground experience of the debacle in the UK in 2018, we hope that our Danish neighbours don’t fall into the same trap as their UK counterparts by escalating matters to a crescendo based on sketchy evidence. We trust that their response will be sober, proportionate, and based on evidence for all to see.
Our concern back in 2018 was for drone enthusiasts who might lose the right to fly, while now it’s more one for all of our collective safety.

Marjorie Taylor Greene sends deeply concerning suicide message to fans
cross-posted from: reddthat.com/post/50988425

To be clear to set the record straight on my support for the Massie Epstein discharge petition.I stand with girls and women who are sexually abused and raped.
Period. Every time. At all times.
For me, it’s not about a pissing contest between political parties or political enemies.
The Epstein rape and pedophile network must be exposed.
The women and their attorney have said over and over that Donald Trump did nothing wrong and he was the only one that helped the women. That is factually true.
Also, the Democrats who had power for the past four years never did a single thing or showed they even cared about these women who were victims of Jeffrey Epstein. They could have exposed the entire thing while they had power but never lifted a finger to do so.
If anyone is implicated, then they have the right to clear their name.
Just as millions of Americans have had to do when falsely accused of a crime.
I’ve had to do that many times and even had to defend myself against lies and pay massive attorney bills to do it.
For example, I was wrongly accused of insurrection and actually had to sit on a witness stand, in a Georgia court of law, and defend myself and clear my name.
Release all the Epstein information by any means possible.
And return the focus to helping Americans.
I hear daily about how Americans can’t afford to pay their health insurance monthly premium, can’t afford rent, can’t afford to buy a home, can’t afford to pay for care for their aging parents, and can’t afford life in general.
The obsession over the Epstein files and fighting about it should not be happening and needs to end.
But it’s only an issue in the news because it has become a political fight and it should not be one.
My name is staying on the discharge petition and I will dive into the Oversight committee investigation just as I do with every investigation.
And to be clear once again, I stand with the women, and the women who were raped at 14.

Just what we need in these unsettling times: A “The Day After” for the 21st century, reminding us that nuclear weapons can still bring the planet to the brink and beyond. Kathryn Bigelow's “A House of Dynamite” is getting strong reviews, and it seems like it might traumatize a new generation of viewers as “The Day After” did in 1983. Coming to Netflix October 24.

Testament (1983) is to America what Threads is to the UK. Nuclear war aftermath but focused on one neighborhood. Supremely depressing.
Interesting, so the most radioactive things here at my house (only slightly above background, not terribly radioactive):
1. Granite countertop (this is a known thing)
2. Night lights (apparently, tritium in there to make them glow)
3. Smoke detectors (bit o'radioactivity in there)
4. Rebar in the garden (hmmmmmmmmmmmm... apparently some radioactivity in the stream, this is where it's shown up in massive contamination events in the past, i.e Ciudad Juarez and the radioactive Taiwanese apartments).
5. Maybe (tough to tell) -- some of the newer drywall. Only slightly more active against it, not a lot.
What provides far more clicking was standing out in the sun. LOL
I am on the #HOA board for my small condo (25 units) in #Phoenix. Just got this from an owner:
“Evo, the rain is falling so quickly that I’m concerned about the level of water in the pool. Is the water draining at all after a certain point or do we need to physically remove a stopper to drain away some water?”
We’ve had 1.5” of rain.
And a pool is not a tub.
🤦

The acquisition of knowledge is so slow.
I wish there really were a "tree of the knowledge of good and evil". I would eat that fruit in a heartbeat.
I learn in order to communicate what I find good & useful. That means I must spend so much time where I am only learning & thinking but not yet sharing.
It always makes me afraid that I am being selfish. The world is on fire, & I sit here reading, hoping against hope that what I find will be of use to more than just me.
On a certain level, I'm just glad to be here, sharing this world with you.
It's a world with pain & suffering, to be sure, but it's also what connects me to you.
You are not insufficient. You are not too small or too weak. You are not without value.
You're here, & I'm glad. I'm glad to share whatever all this is *(gestures vaguely at existence)* with others.
We don't have to be heroes or martyrs.
We just have to live & try.
As a child, I learned to fear my own imperfection. God was perfect, & I was to be like God.
My life was one of constant failure. I could never be good enough, kind enough, self-sacrificing enough, or morally correct enough.
In my mind, every moment is a chance to fail to live up to what I should or could be.
I have to let this belief go & just live & be & do & let it be enough.

The stage is set against a dark curtain, with a colorful, illuminated backdrop featuring a blue and purple gradient and a central emblem. The ceiling is ornate, with white moldings and a skylight, and the walls are adorned with classical architectural elements, including columns and decorative panels. The audience is seated in rows, facing the stage, and appears to be engaged in the event. The lighting is focused on the stage, highlighting the performers. The overall atmosphere suggests a formal event or presentation.
