War sucks, but winning a war is so, so, so, so, so much better than losing one.
Ukraine has obtained at least 10,200 M718 or M741 projectiles from the United States. Similar to cluster munitions in operation, these charges, once dispersed over a target area, do not detonate immediately. Instead, they lay a minefield that activates upon detecting the magnetic signature of nearby vehicles.
yanks cannot be expected to recognise their country on a map unless state borders are shown… (that's my hypothesis and i’m sticking with it - postulate : no other country routinely receives this treatment)
Amazing. TIL that @arte the franco-german public service broadcaster in Europe has a completely open app showing their programmes. Here to celebrate is a beautiful short documentary about Eunice Newton Foote, including a re-enactment of her (now famous) experiments showing how #CarbonDioxide is a #GreenhouseGas.
(TIL also that #UncleSam was actually a real person) #ClimateChange#eunicefoote#ArteTV
