The mesh increases the 'hit box' of the interceptor. It's conductive, so it is more likely to trigger the kamikaze than a normal in-air collision.

I don't think the interceptor is expected to survive a successful interception. In the case of a miss, it will be reusable tho, unlike other defense munitions. If any parts of either drone survive, they'll fall in defender controlled territory, and be available to be fed back into the drone manufacture supply chain.

It's a trucking company that the CEO lied was going bankrupt, as an excuse not to pay a cancer-stricken trucker.

There are no records of ATG Truckload formally filing for bankruptcy.

The victim of wage-theft was battling cancer.

Cheap kamikaze drones have loose wires on the front. When the wires touch, like when they collide with an object in front of them, it completes a circuit that detonates the payload.

A wide conductive screen mesh on the back of an interceptor drone seems like a cheap, simple countermeasure.

Your uncle is correct in that work isn't given to inmates for their benefit or edification. It's to line the pockets of those in charge. If the state wanted prisoners to more easily 're-integrate' into society, they would let them form unions and pay them a decent wage for their labor. Instead, they'll either abuse their authority to get the inmates to work for peanuts and pocket the difference, or they'll pass the work to one of their cronies.

One of the roles of prison labor is to undermine organized labor outside of the prison. Prisoners are often employed outside of the prison in addition to doing work to maintain the prison. By forcing them to compete for jobs with slaves, it undermines non-incarcerated laborers' bargaining power and pressures them to accept conditions closer to incarceration.

I don't blame your uncle for his position; life in prison is extremely tedious, and the quality of what you're given makes commissary essential. People outside need to organize with people inside to create a situation that benefits both.

Article title with the whitewash removed: "IN VIOLATION OF A COURT ORDER AND THE CONSTITUTION, TRUMP'S IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES SAY THEY DEPORTED A DOZEN PEOPLE TO AN AFRICAN NATION, ONE OF WHICH IS IN A CIVIL WAR..."

'Minarchism' in my book is a term invented by fascist and capitalist entryists, and people who use it to gatekeep anarchism should be on the other side of the gate.

They don't need to be 'appointed' by a king or politician in order to exist. Committees are one of the essential organs of actual right-now functioning real-life working large-scale anarchist groups. When done well, they include the voices of all of the significant stakeholders in a decision, and efficiently discover solutions that achieve the goal while respecting the autonomy and interests of all of the participants.

Don't @ me, but definitely reply to @JustJack23@slrpnk.net with the disemboweled anarchism you propose as an alternative.

Did anyone else catch the detail of the French-coded resistance in Andor using their metal-tipped canes to break up the pavement in the square before the Ghorman Massacre?
