feel so much better!

thank you so much, I do feel better knowing that I am not the only one to goof up by not putting my lens on fully/properly!

All the trees are blooming. 

There is a Czech company that makes inflatable decoys of military items, like fake tanks and fake HIMARS, to confuse an enemy. They are made out of synthetic silk and they have something or other that creates a thermal footprint and appears on radars.

Ukraine can probably use it for surveillance and recon.
