An ad blocker is preventing this page from loading
No it isn't, you're preventing the page from loading to punish me for using an ad blocker.
I loaded the page just fine here on IronFox + uBlockOrigin. FYI. Which ad blocker are you using?
I have pretty strict DNS filtering across the home network, so I assumed it was that. But it still loads for me in Brave on Linux. It didn't load in Vanadium on GrapheneOS.
Mildly informed speculatuon:
In-browser ad bkockers may use anti-anti-ad-blocker filtering rules.
I am pretty sure uBlockOrigin does this by default. But I can't be sure about the rest at the moment, although my guess is, even the other ad blockers will likely allow at least optionally to set up a filter to remove anti-ad-blocking code from your private copy of a web page you've loaded from the net.
DNS filtering naturally will still load all the anti-ad-blocking code, because DNS filtering does not analyze the contents of your private copy of the web page in question.
I am of the opinion that you should NOT have to know all this before you can have a decent and safe experience on the net. It's shame.
That seems plausible, and it would make sense of an otherwise puzzling situation.
That's the most AI written article I think I've ever seen. Isn't really a story here it's just a fishing boat pulled a drone out of the water probably after it would "shot down". But the AI goes on and on repeating the same basic point again and again without making any real headway.
The pic of their "haul" all laid out with the drone on the side is pure comedy.
I'll take it off their hands if they don't want it.
You probably won’t be allowed to fly it.
Of course, I never do things I'm not allowed to do
Real question. Is that a Shahed or made to look similar? Is this the setup for an October surprise? If so, frighteningly brilliant.
Basically, yep. This drone is designed primairly as a target drone; since one of the things the US most wants to be shooting down is Shaheds, the form and capabilites are very similar for training use. (It's supposedly a more advanced version, anticipating developments that Iran et. al. will likely (or have already) rolled out. Who knows how true that is, though.)
The Russians have already integrated jet engines and some other enhancements into their Shahed clones, Geran.
Are the Russians upstreaming their improvements back to Iran?
That’s a good question, I am not sure
