Russian infantry are eliminated by the "Rarog" UAV Battalion.
  • Totally a keyboard warrior reply, but I suspect that since most of those videos show individual or pair of soldiers, its after their squad was destroyed and these guys are remainder. They probably also hear a lot of drones flying around during the day, so even if they are loud as hell, maybe you "get used" to it and don't react as quick.

    Probably don't expect every soldier to carry shotguns so depending who survives the first contact, might not have a right weapon. Also I don't actually know what is Russian squads go to load-outs are. It would be interesting to know if Ukrainian squads who have western training keep up with similar load outs as touted by western armies (where people have roles and equipment to suit). But as we rarely see videos of successful interceptions, its probably not something Ukraine would be quick to share.

    Take all this with a ton of salt though, I have no sources, just assumptions. Would be great to hear from professional soldiers with actual combat experience though.

  • Woman admits hurling McDonald's milkshake over Nigel Farage
  • As much as i think Garage is a piece of human garbage that needs to have a date with a guillotine, throwing anything at anyone is a terrible idea. Its a milkshake now, but what if it was acid? What if the target is lacto intolerant and ends up consuming some? Or a nut allerge with a nut drink? These can be very severe.

    While i agree that Garage sucks, throwing things at people shouldn't be a solution.

  • Looking for some kind of local DB manager? "application" with a gui
  • That's an interesting point, I decided to carry on with the webapp route, but it would be easy to make it "multi-cat" actually. What I really wanted was a lightweight calendar but I couldn't find one that had pre-canned events or had too many other things I didn't want.

  • Looking for some kind of local DB manager? "application" with a gui
  • Thank you for the suggestions, I tried a bunch and nothing immediately fit. Most were either too complicated for me to create the relationships or I couldn't get the thing locally running (or there wasn't a self hosted option)... Basically stupid user syndrome 😑 😤.

    So went back to the drawing board of writing a webapp and after a few experiments realised that... All I needed was a calendar with pre-canned event titles, groups for colour to highlight different events... silly me, all I needed was a calendar...

    Ended up re-inventing something looking very much like a calendar... sigh... do I carry on or look for some kind of lightweight calendar :/ Just need to have ability to quickly create pre-canned events, would be nice if the events could be related...

    On the other hand, its kinda fun to re-invent a calendar haha!

    Here is a colour version... totally a calendar 🤣

  • Looking for some kind of local DB manager? "application" with a gui

    I need to record information about what my cat eats and does, as she might have a food allergy and I need to track down what it is.

    So I am after some kind of a user friendly locally hosted database (maybe via some kind of app), preferably Linux friendly.

    It would be nice if it had similar relationships to the added image, some kind of relational DB that I can fill with data. But essentially I need to have a bunch of lookup tables to return some data specific to difference events.

    Its a bit of a pain (and takes time) to have to write an entire webapp to manage all this from scratch, that's why I am looking for some kind of user friendly GUI way to do it. Surely there must be some kind of relational database managing "application" that lets you set up some lookup tables and enter data in a nice and easy GUI way to do it? sqllitebrowser doesn't count as it doesn't handle linked tables in a nice way (would be nice if its friendly for my wife to use) :)

    Cheers!

    Where to recycle treadmill?

    Got a small walking treadmill, that now became a fire hazard, rhe motor is sparking, but replacing it seems not feasible as i cannot get a replacement part (the company stopped existing a while ago and doesn't seem like a main manufacturer). And it seems a slightly more permanent installation than not.

    So looking to scrap it, but how to scrap it in London without a car? Council bulk pickup seems not to mention anything about fitness equipment and neither does the "not so local" recycling centre, tried calling it but the number goes nowhere. Its a fair trip on a taxi if i wanted to bring it to the centre and not a straightforward walk either.

    So the question is, how to scrap it? Contacted a random "local" company that mentioned picking up gym equipment but they quoted £200, which is more than the bloody thing cost!

    Going to email the council, but anything else i can try?

    How to properly throw a 404 status in react router 6?

    Using react router and have a route definition:

    { path: '/', element: <Root pageTitle={pageTitle} />, errorElement: <ErrorPage setPageTitle={updatePageTitle} />, children: [ ... { path: '*', element: <ErrorPage setPageTitle={updatePageTitle} />, loader: async () => { throw new Response('Not Found', { status: 404 }); }, }, ], },

    This shows me 404 page how I want but without the rest of the root element but also the http status is reported as 200. How do I properly throw it as a 404 and show it inside root element?

    Is it possible to create shortcuts to either tags or collections?

    Say I have a Films library

    Is it possible to make a shortcut on the left hand side menu to a specific tag or collection from this library? I was not able to find this option.

    And a side question, if I have media in multiple languages, whats the best way of signalling it? Via tags of some kind? Or {edition- labelling?

    Cheers
