Addamere posted:would orbital beam weapons even work against targets beneath the atmosphere? You'd want low frequency light with a wavelength within a transmission window (So probably not visible light?) But it's potentially doable? I haven't thought about this beyond the basic optics so maybe there's more subtle issues with the idea?

1.0 to 1.1 micrometers maybe? If you're specifically trying to set fire to vegetation

I was with the president of Finland and he said, 'We have a much different-we're a forest nation.' He called it a forest nation, and they spent a lot of time on raking and cleaning and doing things," Trump continued. "And they don't have any problem."

They have more respect for the forest, their gnomish elders turn into trees after their deaths.

Mayor Dave posted:It's a split California into multiple states/let us make a new chud state organization id like to think having their lives destroyed by the fire would awaken the chuds to the reality of climate change and a new understanding that the refugees at the southern border are just like them but of course the camps will be hotbeds of right wing radicalization
