💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🏰⚙️ #Aerospace engineer Tom Stanton built a backyard #trebuchet powerful enough to launch a projectile past the speed of #sound.
He redesigned the ancient siege weapon with a 3:1 pulley system and a longer sling that revolved multiple times to gain #momentum. After extensive trial and error, his release cracked the whip of a #sonicboom at 1,249 km/h (776 mph), just clearing the 1,234 km/h (767 mph) barrier.

Let’s go and get quickly our weapons
for that’s how we are going to succeedAnd that’s the only way we can do it
to leave behind something importantThere’s nothing better than weapons
to leave love behind for the worldTo prove to the righteous
that they can achieve nothing through peaceThe world presents itself as cruel
this was and is true anywaySo let’s raise our weapons
to destroy the worldIrini 🥹

New release review: Ice Cream Man
-
A month ago or so, I wrote to my Congressional representatives regarding the dangers posed by autonomous and remote controlled weapons in civilian environments.
I got a form letter from Warnock's office regarding government technology systems (AI and surveillance). Ossoff's office gave me a form letter regarding assault weapons. I got no response from Williams' office (I'm pretty sure I included her in the letters).
I hope that somebody on the staff noticed that this was something new and is starting to look into it...even if they could only respond with a form letter. I hope.
