If we're all (both sides!) so concerned about drug users and guns, maybe we should require drug tests prior to buying a gun. Right?

They're so fucking weird

God I can't wait to rub Pierce being fired in your stupid fucking face.

When I see this I see this

Not only are we sending another Patriot battery or two, but Germany is as well, plus Germany, Norway, Denmark, and The Netherlands are sending 100 total missiles (32 already there).

sure.

Pinches pendejos

Europe stepping up even more. Pre-2022, Russia’s yearly military budget was $60 billion

I'd take it a step further. If he plays it at your house, fucking humiliate him. It's pretty easy to mock Jesse Watters and the rest of thsoe twats in real fucking time, regardless of what they're saying. "We've got a 30 trillion dollar deficit, 8 of it during 4 years of Trump, and these fucker losers wont stop talking about Woke Star Wars. Fucking pathetic." If you just ridicule the message, over and over, fucker will stop watching. And if he doesn't, and makes a scene, remind him that it's your home. IMO.

sheeeit if it was an American led air assault every fucking command and control station from the Finnish border to the Georgian border would have been wiped out simultaneously. tomahawks from our subs in the Baltic, Mediterranean and maybe even from the Artic if they are clear of ice would launch. and the Turkish air bases would have most likely had planes loaded and launched as well. The one thing our military did ad nasuem due to the "defend a 2-front war policy" was the philosophy of: Why buy one when you can get two at twice the price?" we have more than double the amount of conventional missiles needed to basically wipe out every Russian base on the European continent, and the rest could take out the Asian continent ones as well.

Well.... Poland bought 2k JASSMs recently and nobody is sure if any has or has not been sent to the Ukraine. The 400km version would make things real tough for Belbeck and Sevastopol. The 1000km version would be overkill for the Crimea. Working your way through how this would work is not a super crazy exercise. Use the live map and then work backward to determine the max engagement range based on some simple criteria: Flight paths be over over the Black Sea for a much as possible to limit MANPADS and other groundbased ADs. AD's for the S300 and S400 have a functional engagement range of 120km. Yes, they can engage from a further distance but at a much lower effectiveness. This implies that 120km from the the entire coast of Crimea would put the f16s at risk. F16s are being based at an airfield N of Odessa F16s are on an 800km max range (without inflight refueling or auxiliary fuel tanks). Yes, there are options to expand the range, but this is all about initial conservative estimates. You can then find a reasonable launch point and draw a 350km circle around it and there is your new set of viable targets. Based on this simple math you can even hit the Kerch bridge (which would be right on the edge of several of the arcs for the max range of the f16s, shore-based AD, and JASSM 400km range). By effectively running the Black Sea fleet out of the western half of the Black Sea, you now have a much broader area for launch points that make this exercise much more interesting. The big holdback would be if Russia could establish and maintain ADs west of E97 in NW Crimea (the peninsula directly south of Kherson) and west of H05 towards Mayak (where funny enough 2 AD sites were hit yesterday). Clean that up and you can get well south of the southern tip of the Crimea and still be outside of the 120km AD range and no worry about ship to air AD systems.

Not all of us were built to be the true heroes that vote 3rd party.

Block it or put a lock on that channel. Bc he’s being a child if he can’t go without his fix at your house

There's some mixed reporting on the numbers, with some saying 2 of each. I think this reflects the current understanding: Map from yesterday:

Russian losses per 11/06/24 reported by the Ukrainian general staff +1100 men +23 tanks +32 APVs +46 artillery systems +1 MLRS +5 AD systems +1 aircraft +13 UAVs Drone operators hunting down individuals you can just see the desperation the Russians have.

We're all losing our minds as of the first incompletion against Colorado State and you know that.

Silver shouldn't be hated for 2016, as gmr notes he was one of the more realistic pollsters in that election (tons of highly respected pollsters were saying Hillary had a ~99% chance). Silver should be hated for turning into a dipshit contrarian expert-on-all-things pundit who cooked his brain in 2020 on all sorts of antivax and related conspiracy theories.

I posted these photos in the Longhorn Memorabilia thread back in January, but I think you'll enjoy seeing them here too (and to make it officially fit the thread, texas am will never come close to our football history). I was 10 years old when we won the '69 championship, so these guys will always be my heroes. Royal, Worster, Koy, Speyrer, and Street all autographed this mini helmet which is my most treasured item of Longhorn memorabilia.

Just got back from 3 days offshore. Took the boat out of Freeport and headed 175 miles south to the Perdido rig area. 4/5 on blues 6 yellowfin in the 40-65# range 2 dorado 10 red snapper including one the size of a manhole cover Good times were had by all. Now I’m waiting on the go pro footage but the boat is back out already (and they have already caught 5 blues in 2 days at Hoover).

@PilotsError will NOT tolerate jokes about Mexicans in the MSC

Once the F16s have some room to roam, we need to give them JASSMs and really extend their range.

I'd bet they're definitely getting targeting intel from the US which is amping up their effectiveness, but as for operating em, shit even @atomheartbevo could operate em so it cant be that hard

So in the last two week or so, I can think of 8-10 reports of attacks on various air defense systems in the Crimea. There is just no way that those attacks are not tied to some sort of operational strategy. Targets generally aren't just picked because of "reasons". So unless the AD sites just keep coming up on the target of opportunity lists (which is an interesting suggestion but with the limited number of ATCAMS that can be fired I would expect other targets to emerge) due to the lack of additional strategic alternatives and AD's cost and limited replaceability, this has to have an operational objective. There is only a finite supply of ATCAMS ammo and if an objective is targeted then that launcher is in effect out of commission until it can move and reload. That would imply that the opportunity cost of the time availability of the system is worth the target. The only way that makes sense is that targeting the AD is a strategic priority vs any other target of opportunity or potential counter battery support. The funny part is that the only reason to hammer Russian air defenses is that they are being successful in countering the various long-range missile platforms being employed by Ukraine or they need the air defenses in the Crimea gone to progress to the next strategic objective. To me, all signs point to the f16s being used to hammer north and western Crimea and as they diminish the AD umbrella, use the f16s to provide cover for a largescale river crossing from Kherson. Look at the map in @KYHorn tweet. Notice where those AD's are. Using a 120 km arc from those air defenses put an effective engagement range just north of Kherson. If you keep rolling those AD's back, then you make it that much easier to mass the troops and supplies for a major river crossing. I would expect to see reports next of targeting of command and control targets in the northern Crimea, and then lots of reports of the massive use of artillery around Kherson. Then once the f16s arrive in mass a major move to hop the river and start the taking of Crimea.

Ketch should let us know in the next few days.

Been off Surly for a while but my wife ended up accepting that job offer and started in late May. We hit the road out of Houston a month ago and are renting in Greenwood in North Seattle. Glad we went with this location because the neighborhood is great and wife's job, which has started off really well, is much more flexible in terms of remote work than initially expected. It's been a whirlwind making a cross country move on the quick and dirty side but we're starting to get settled in. Have some family and friends coming to visit over the next couple weeks so that will be nice. Eventually I need to join a basketball league and go to some networking/education events in my industry to get out and actually meet some new people. Have work travel to Texas in July so I'm sure I will get absolutely wrecked without any kind of usual heat acclimation.

If you want to know what Rod Babers has to say after watching Caleb Chester's film: The guy's a great athlete at CB, a natural at coverage, keenly aware of angles, great at bump and run, and already has different methods of playing press (shadow, one hand jab, two hand press). He can disrupt receivers and get them off their route. He's already put a lot into studying his craft.
