  1. 日本の自衛隊、ドロン取得 Japan's Self-Defense Forces acquire Dron
    ドロンを導入するのは良いが、電子戦対策も又重要です。
    It is good to introduce drones, but electronic warfare measures are also important.

  2. @nske the Sonic Foundry collection is likely to be pretty safe. Then there's #FairUse, and after that pretty much anything that finds its way into my own personal work ends up not being very like how it was originally found (#Reworked and #Modified more than 50%).

  5. I'd guessed at the #Seat #Leon involved in the recentserious / #fatal #collision with a #taxi at #Bolton #GreaterManchester (4 fatalities, 4 injured across both vehicles) being #modified (ambient light pack isn't stock for that era of car (2013))

    Not sure if journos are 100% correct, car from RTC registered as bog standard 1.2 TSI (which *would* likely make 122 mph on stage 2 remap, even stock motor can reach those speeds if pushed), figures quoted are more for Cupra Leon with EA888 engine.

    There is also a post from the tuners (one was deceased lads brother, and had warned him not to drive too fast!) with details of mosque and their funeral arrangements.

    May Allah (swt) have mercy upon their souls..

  6. #Mites of the #Histiostomatidae (#Astigmata) not only have highly #modified #mouthparts (see photo) that form a #filterfeeding organ, but their #copulatoryposition is also an #evolutionary #modification. Other Astigmata mate back-to-back, while Histiostomatidae have the male riding on top of the female, head over head. See here the dorsal #copulationopening of a #female of #Histiostoma sp..

  7. It's time to tidy up the inside of the custom lights on my 1980s Austin Princess, the original trims won't cover the frenched in 1964 Ford Galaxie light buckets. Let's use some aluminium salvaged from a 1950s Lanchester to make something!

  8. The growing body of research we have been conducting on #TheGrackleProject is showing that #behavioral #flexibility enables birds to #adapt to #human #modified #habitats 🌆 , but plays a smaller role in expanding into new #geographic areas 🗺️

    Moving to new towns likely involves more #persistence because we previously found that grackles on the edge of their range in northern California had similar levels of average flexibility (though higher variance), but were more persistent than grackles nearer the center of their range in Arizona peercommunityjournal.org/artic

    This is also supported by the fact that the preliminary data we were able to collect on persistence in boat-tailed grackles (who are not rapidly expanding their geographic range) showed that they are less persistent than great-tailed grackles, while having similar levels of flexibility

  10. As for your agricultural production, we do not want to eat #Genetically #Modified #Organisms #GMO, so thanks but no thanks. No orange haired #mutants please. Neither #pesticides, thanks.

    We are also keen on " #Europe #First", or our #nations first, i.e. being #independant
    Because we are already great !

    A concept very difficult for you to understand , apparently

    This is just another pretext to harass your (best) friends


  11. Odri is a member of an extraterrestrial species who were originally human but - in the distant unremembered past - were modified into floating telekinetic beings whose bodies are "recharged" by advanced bio-pods.

    They have vague cultural memories of Earth as a distant homeworld, but were unaware that their species had been changed until arriving there.
    It may not be possible to prove when or why they were changed.
    This species does not have a single accepted name, given that their word for themselves is also used for the residents of Earth.
    The remaining members of the species were sent "back in time" to the present day by powerful forces, in what is likely a long-term attempt to strengthen Earth as a potential ally.

    They arrived in the early 90s, which triggered a wave of spaceship-themed music videos, such as "Larger than Life" (Backstreet Boys), "Say What You Want" (Texas), "Scream" (Michael and Janet Jackson), and "You'll Be Sorry" (Steps).
    Neither Odri's people nor Earth currently have any contact with other extraterrestrials, nor the ability to communicate at the great distances required.
    Odri was born after her species arrived on Earth.

    Her name is a traditional name among her people and is probably descended from the name "Audrey".
    Most members of Odri's species still live on their spaceships. (Odri currently lives in the college dorms.)
    Odri is part of a group of talented technicians that maintains the bio-pods; they have the technology to build new ones, but the process is very slow, and reverse-engineering them is not yet possible.
    Odri is about 20 years old, and is attending a state university in the U.S.

    Special scholarships are available for extraterrestrials from universities who hope to attract unique talent.
    Odri's people originally had a religion which taught that the prophet they were looking for was on another planet and was not yet revealed to them.
    The more Odri floats, the sooner she will need to "recharge".

    Odri also needs to sleep, like a regular human, but she can do so while recharging.
    Odri cannot eat food, but does need to drink water.

  12. :lobster: Dear Friends of #Sound of sorts,

    My latest #podcast is basically white #noise and #chanting #modified so it is barely #recognizable. It is #really for me to #block out noise created by #living in #London with #planes and #helicopters, #building work, #aliens #abducting #residents … oh wait that is not available yet. :ablobsunglasses: Anyway if you put it on ye old #headphones and play on a #loop, everything will at least #sound #safe … :ablobcouple:

  14. Good morning from a frosty and foggy London. Top news on #BBCWorldService:

    British doctors have for the 1st time ever #successfully #treated an #incurable and aggressive form of #leukaemia with a #cell #engineering technique: They used #genetically #modified cells that are able to target and kill cancer cells without damaging healthy ones. After the experimental medicine the teenage patient was able to receive a bone marrow transplant restoring her immune system. She is now free of cancer.
