Receiving SAQ and other VLF stations SAQ is the callsign of the Varberg Radio Station at Grimeton, Sweden It operates on a very low frequency: 17.2 kHz Learn about VLF & How can you listen to these special stations: tinyurl.com/y5l8e3o6

Ja det är tufft för många när priserna skenar. När vi tog över regeringsmakten var inflationen över 10%. Nu har Sverige lägst inflation i hela EU, 0,5% senaste året. Handen på hjärtat - vill du verkligen ha tillbaka sosseinflationen? Som gör alla fattigare?

Takie systemy antydrnowe powinny być jak najszybciej wdrażane w Polsce i dostarczane do jednostek. To najtańszy sposób neutralizowania zagrożeń powietrznych.. Na filmie ukraiński mały interceptor - dron Sting (Wild Hornet) czy P1-Sun raz nakierowany cel, sam dalej podąża za nim... ceny: od 1 do 2,5 tys USD.

Thread 🧵 1/ The Gripen debate misses the point. This is not about 16 aircraft. It's about building a long-term Swedish-Ukrainian air power system that could reshape the balance of power in Northern Europe and the Black Sea for the next decade.

The Kingdom of Sweden, or Sverige in their native tongue, is stepping up in a huge way: The Swedes are donating 16 older Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine and they are allowing Ukraine to purchase 20 more. Sweden, population 10.6 million, comes through in a huge way both for Ukraine and for all of Europe and the West. UnderFire.News

This is wild... Russia seems to be threatening a *commercial* satellite that provides imaging services to Ukraine: ▸ starting about two weeks ago, Russia started maneuvering five (!) of their classified satellites to the same orbital inclination as the ICEYE satellite ▸ these burns were big, on the order of 100 m/s, clearly using chemical propulsion given the speed of the burns — very expensive and deliberate maneuvers ▸ as of last Friday, all five Russian satellites are now co-planar, at ~97.8° inclination, with three of ICEYE's satellites, and aligned in other orbital elements (e.g. RAAN) that make it clear they're specifically targeting this set ▸ I am a little skeptical that Russia is specifically targeting -X36 — there are two other satellites at the same inclination/RAAN (-X37 and -X38) — but the Russian sats are now all within striking distance of -X36, which is why people are concerned about it specifically; the closest cross-track distance is an estimated 500 meters (!!), all while the satellites are orbit 550 kilometers above Earth ▸ Russia has unleashed a cyberattack on a commercial satellite before (Viasat), and it is official Russian policy that commercially-owned infrastructure that aids in military efforts "may be legitimate target[s] for a retaliatory strike.” ▸ there's speculation that this could be a precursor to an RPO mission (meaning: physically grabbing the satellite or some other kind of non-kinetic attack like blinding/jamming) Worth tracking closely. And unfortunately more evidence that space is militarizing, fast.

@TheGingerPerks For someone who's been playing computer games since the early 80's - the Witcher 3 is probably the single player game I've loved the most!

I will never understand why people say the Witcher is overrated. The Witcher made me believe in gaming again, for a time I didn’t know if I would find a game series that would evoke so much emotion in me again, since before that, it was Mass Effect. It’s a masterpiece.

You asked (a lot) - we delivered. Geralt is coming back in a new The Witcher 3 Expansion called Songs of the Past

@BoEdman_ @maquisarden @Existenzse Onödan? Dom är inte för att attackera ryska oskyldiga civila mål - något ryssarna inte drar sig för att göra, rädda ukrainska liv är inte i onödan!

@maquisarden @Existenzse Jag är ej någon ryssjävel och jag sympatiserar definitivt inte med dom. Min fundering var bara om det är klokt att skänka just stridsflyg (vi har tidigare skänkt CV90 / Archer / stridsbåtar vilket är OK). Men just flygplan…känns som att vi provocerar i onödan.

Uppgifter: Sverige skickar Jas Gripen till Ukraina Sverige planerar att donera flera Jas-plan till Ukraina, enligt uppgifter till Aftonbladet. Regeringen väntas under torsdagen presentera ett stödpaket med stridsflyg av modellen JAS 39 Gripen C/D. Enligt tidningens uppgifter ska det samtidigt inledas förhandlingar om en möjlig försäljning av ytterligare Jas-plan av modellen JAS 39 Gripen E till Ukraina. Dessa ska enligt uppgifterna finansieras genom EU-lån. Statsminister Ulf Kristersson har kallat till pressträff på Upplands flygflottilj i Uppsala där beskedet väntas presenteras. I höstas tecknade Sverige och Ukraina även ett avtal om att Ukraina avser köpa mellan 100 och 150 Jas Gripen-plan.

@brockpierson Still do.

OK be honest with me. You used this, DIDNT YOU

Canada has decided to move forward with Saab GlobalEye as its new airborne capability for Airborne Early Warning and Control. I look forward to welcoming Canada into the GlobalEye family. GlobalEye is a highly modern and capable system that now has earned the trust of a fourth country, in addition to Sweden, France and the UAE. By operating Global Eye, Canada strengthens its ability to safeguard their sovereignty while contributing to NATO’s collective defence, including being a vital asset for surveillance and control of the Arctic region. As the GlobalEye is based on the Canadian Bombardier Global 6500 platform, GlobalEye is already creating jobs in Canada, and working with the Canadian supply chain. This decision ties our two nations even closer together.

Medallion's humming... that can only mean one thing! It's time to announce The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Songs of the Past! ⚔️ This brand new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will take you to the Path with Geralt of Rivia once more. It’s being co-developed with @Fools_Theory and is coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 in 2027. Stay tuned for more information in late summer. ⏰

“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…” Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share. This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating: “Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight. A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive. A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy. A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages. You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything. They’re simply too poor to afford bail. Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s. Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends. Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years. Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you. And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster. And you call Greenland badly governed? Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment. ‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’ When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years. And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess. You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy. So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan. The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth. And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”

Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do

@Valmardon99 Sossevänstern är experter på att ge svenska pengar till alla andra än oss svenskar.

Detta är en politiker som slåss för svenska hushållens pengar. Socialdemokraterna gav bort 150 miljarder till covidfonden som går till Spanien Italien och Grekland. Stor skillnad vem som styr. #politik

HOLY CRAP Trump actually accomplished a miracle. Here is what he got out of Iran: - Reduce its stockpile of enriched uranium by about 98% - Limit uranium enrichment to 3.67% purity (far below weapons-grade) - Cut the number of installed centrifuges by roughly two-thirds - Only enrich uranium at one declared site (Natanz) - Stop enrichment activities at Fordow and convert it into a research facility - Redesign the Arak heavy-water reactor so it could not easily produce weapons-grade plutonium - Ship out or dilute excess enriched uranium Allow extensive inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Permit continuous monitoring of nuclear facilities and supply chains - Accept “snap” inspections under expanded monitoring rules - Avoid building new heavy-water reactors for years - Stay within strict limits on uranium stockpile size and centrifuge development for set periods ranging from 10–25 years Ooops, sorry! That was the JCPOA that Obama signed with Iran, only to have him tear it up, kill 140 kids, get hundreds of Americans injured, 13 killed, and gas prices to surge 50%.

@hostis_black That's the thing with stuff these days, you rent it even if you bought it...

On May 20, Amazon ended support for every Kindle made in 2012 or earlier. The devices can no longer buy, borrow, or download books. Reset one to factory settings and it will never log back in. The screen still works. The hardware is fine. Amazon reached across the internet and turned a thing you paid for into a brick, on a date they picked, for a reason that benefits them. The owners bought the devices. They bought the books. They followed every rule. Amazon changed the rules anyway, because the rules were never yours. When you tap "Buy now" on a Kindle book, you are not buying a book. You are renting a license that Amazon can revoke, expire, or strand on a dead device whenever it suits the quarter. They designed it this way on purpose, and they showed us the blueprint years ago. In 2009 Amazon reached into thousands of Kindles overnight and deleted, ironically, copies of George Orwell's 1984, a book people had already paid for. They refunded everyone, apologized, and promised never again. We took the promise for what it was worth and watched the door instead. In February 2025 they shut it. They removed Download and Transfer via USB, the last simple tool that let you pull your own purchases onto your own computer and keep them. Newer Kindle files use a format almost nobody can crack. They closed the exit, then they started bricking the devices. None of this was a surprise. They proved in 2009 that they could reach into your library and take a book back. Everything since has just been them deciding when. A copy you cannot hold is a copy you do not own. A library that lives on someone else's server is a library someone else can burn. The cartel rents you access to the words and calls it ownership, and the only reason most people never notice is that the landlord usually lets them stay. May 20 was the eviction notice. It went to 3% of Kindle owners this time. The lease is identical for the other 97%. Stop buying books you cannot hold. When you do buy from Amazon, strip the DRM the day it arrives and keep a clean file somewhere they cannot reach. Back up everything you already own while you still can. A book on your own drive is yours forever. A book in your Amazon account is yours until a lawyer in Seattle decides otherwise. And when you want a book the cartel has priced out of reach or locked behind a dying device, the shadow libraries that never expire are one search away. The pirates build libraries that cannot be revoked, because they assume the cartel always will. The cartel cannot delete what it cannot reach.
