How technology is advancing in the current age:

This is a 2800 lumen Fenix TK76 from 2013. An absolute behemoth of a light powered by three CREE U2 LEDs and 4 18650 cells. No longer in production since 2018.



And this is a 3000 lumen current production Fenix PD40RV3.0, introduced in late 2022. Powered by a single SFT70 LED and one 5000 MAH 21700 battery. Can also run on 18650 batteries using the Fenix ALF-18 battery adaptor casing. Barely larger than my 6 year old 1000 lumen Fenix UC35V2.0 tac-light and fits in the same size ALP-10 hardcase belt holster. Just ten years time between this and the behemoth above.

And most of the technology that powers the world today started appearing in the final 2 decades of the 19th century. In the movie Gangs of New York, people in 1863 NYC used modes of transportation, illuminated and heated their homes with implements, and took on trades that remained completely unchanged from the time of King Aethelred of Anglo Saxon England at the beginning of the Viking raids and would have easily been identifiable to a farmer in the early Middle Ages. 20 years later however, electric lighting, telephone, and the first D-cell flashlights became commercially available.

I own several Fenix lights.................this is by far the most impressive...............



Dude those LEPs are no joke. Literal lasers at their operational cores. That standard single cell tac-light sized TK30 will outperform one of the smaller fort wall mounted carbon-arc coastal defense artillery crew searchlights from the early 1900s...
 
the pols are in a bad place. enough people know that epstein was murdered by gov while under gov control in jail with suicide watch. if they off this scum the same way gonna be harder to sell it.
of course they tried to kill trump twice,much like JFK,LHO,ruby project,and MSM doesn't admit either or even mention them. so,maybe same deal with same results.
 
Well, this bus ride might be interesting

Actually, it's not all that far fetched.

On my first trip to Europe and to Munich, specifically, I toured the Dachau Concentration Camp... now named the "Concentration Camp Memorial Site at Dachau"). You take an S-Bahn ride (about 40 min.) from downtown Munich to the "City of Dachau." It actually is an incorporated municipality and has nice looking Suburban tree lined streets with single family homes on which kids play ball, etc., like any American Suburb. The campsite itself is, of course, just outside the corporate city limit, about 20 minutes away. There is a "free bus" (similar to the above) that will take you from the Dachau S-Bahn station to the site and bring you back.
