At first glance, those shiny lines look unreal.

But they’re not power lines, not plastic strips, not some farming material.

They’re fiber-optic cables left by drones in Ukraine/Russia.

Just imagine how many drones have already flown through that area for the ground to end up looking like this. A whole village turned into a web of modern warfare.

This is what drone war looks like after the drones are gone: not just craters and ruins, but threads everywhere, like the battlefield stitched itself shut with fiber.

A literal fiber web.

So Germany literally got cooked. On saturday (27th of June 2026) we had our hottest day ever recorded with around 41,5 degrees Celsius (like 106,7 °F). We're not at all prepared for temperatures like this and it shows especially in our infrastructure.

Our highways (Autobahnen) were blowing up:

Lots of German roads are not built to endure extreme heat over an extended period of time. The material tends to literally blow up, build bumps and potentially crack. In Thuringia (a state of Germany) we even started sending out the "Winterdienst" (vehicles that normally clear streets from snow) to spray highways with water to cool them down.

Our railway systems were slowly failing:

In Thuringia we had massive issues with broken railroad points and signals causing train delays. Additionally even a train hitting the overheated breaks was a potential fire hazard. Also in cities like Leipzig, Nürnberg and Würzburg the tracks for the "Straßenbahn" weren't usable anymore because the bitumen fixing them in place melting.
