I'm curious, do people honestly view this and think to themselves "yup, self-defence"? Are the participants of 7 October in every single building?

So... I've noticed some of you are creating (and uploading!) a LOT of annotations in https://liiive.now—enough to make the UI a little choppy.

Well, challenge accepted: I just shipped an update that will keep things smooth, so you can keep the annotations coming! Bonus additions:
• New shape style with better contrast on light/dark images
• Polygon editing now lets you add & remove corners easily

Happy annotating!

A 3D ship model of the Bremen ship CONCORDIA – captured 1758 – is currently in development in close cooperation with Oliver Urrea from Flinders University. The model is based on historical documents from the Prize Papers as well as historical ship models.

"I will be resigning after this semester from my tenured position at West Point after 13 years on the faculty. I cannot tolerate these changes, which prevent me from doing my job responsibly. I am ashamed to be associated with the academy in its current form."
