    Yes, and the Kaiser abdicated too.

    The grown-up version of cardboard at armor & wooden swords. Still,
    I'd like to see historical text for titanium armor.

    But it does remind me of a few renaissance faires I have gone to.

    Saw this and it scared me...Deep fake.

    There are a bunch of examples on the net.



    Just think 5-10 years into the future...nothing you see picture or video can be taken for granted...what will this mean for the future of movies? Porn? Will video be permissible in court? This tech degrades pictures and videos to nothing really...

    Experts will be needed. Like the one in "Used Cars". The one that worked for the bad guy.

    I'm not sure it will be easy to detect...if you remaster the fake so that the "gaps" or "breaks" become embedded...the broken string becomes whole again...and when will you know to test it...?

    She went to the Music Awards with Marilyn Manson one year. Was in the movies "Phantoms" and "Planet Terror". Naughty lass, that one.

    5-10 years from now? I know quite a few people who can't tell fact from hyperbole right now. It's what ya want to believe baby, what you want to believe.

    And that’s part of my point...how much easier to make people believe when you see it with your own eyes...

    It appears to me that nothing will change peoples minds if there is any possibility what they see, hear or read confirms their own bias. No matter how ridiculous it is.

    Truth and Facts matter not to those who refuse to see.

    Hitler was only one of many who used oratory to incite civil unrest. We haven't come very far in understanding just how little can affect the masses.

    The Navy Is Finally Creating America's Next Fighter Jet

    Navy Developing America's New Fighter Jet: 6th Generation Fighter

    Some say it might be the secret TR3-B...I doubt this but may have some of its tech...
    [​IMG]

    Lockhead Martin is said to have the "alien tech" (which even the US Airforce is not privy to these days) - So keep an eye out for this.

    Been listening to a bunch of rumbling the last hour and a half or so. No not that (debate) thing on television.
    F16s from the Duluth Air Guard are getting in some night flying ! Don't think standing outside in 40 degree weather in your socks is too bright but hey, watching the flashing beacons and almost feeling the afterburner kick in warms my soul :D

    I always laugh when some wild-eyed person claims "we got night vision (etc.) from alien spacecraft!" First, if the aliens aren't good enough to keep their ships from crashing they're not all that far ahead of us. Second, we have a paper trail for the development of all the tech used, it's part of the process. And third, don't let the guys who sweated bullets to design that stuff hear you stealing their thunder. Some of them are pretty big.

    I’m far from wide eyed...ships can crash for all sorts of reasons...especially those that use ‘fields’. The paper trail arguement is spurious...I’ve worked in the public service (including defence) for 30 years, I probably know better than most about government paper trails...and it’s with Lockheed Martin for a reason, government RFIs and other avenues can’t keep stuff secret for long. A private company can use the Industrial secrets act to protect its inner most secrets. I’m told the US government cannot account for billions every (year? Not sure of the term - Actually unaccounted for money is ‘normal’ even in advanced governments, but when it starts to get into the billions...well) But that’s all the least difficult to answer question anyway, Lockheed Martin could fund most of its needs (once all the infrastructure has been put in place). The question is who is it’s client? The US government of course.
    And instead of stealing thunder my arguement heaps far more praise, to back engineer and re design for their own purposes...very little of this back engineering has been easy or fast, instead taking decades, engineers regularly shelving work and coming back ten years later to see what ten years of tech and understanding could then bring to the problem.
    I would look into this before dismissing it...there is far more information on this than you might think...indeed it’s looking like the governments have stopped caring and are fine with more information coming out...There are kooks and fake shit aplenty I know...but there are far too many people who have nothing to gain, telling the same story over and over...
    I understand people having their belief systems challenged and balking at it...

    I’ve never seen a F-17 stealth fighter, but I’ve seen the people who built it...flew it. I’ve seen footage and pictures and testimonials...some have crashed.
