  1. https://breakingdefense.com/2024/10/aussies-arming-ukraine-with-almost-50-abrams-tanks-a-change-in-canberras-plans/
  2. These angry old Boomers won't go without a fight.
  3. Quantum of Solace is a good movie. Oppenheimer is overrated and too long.
  4. Not so fast! Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris could sit down with popular podcaster Joe Rogan for an interview in the final stretch of the U.S. presidential campaign, three sources with knowledge of the matter said on Monday. Harris campaign officials met with Rogan's team this week but an appearance has not been confirmed yet, two of the sources said. https://gazette.com/news/us-world/exclusive-kamala-harris-could-join-podcaster-joe-rogan-for-an-interview---sources/article_b942207b-2bca-5388-b8d5-7db1d0037f9c.html
  5. Gonna be like those zombie shooter games I play on my phone.
  6. We see how badly Russia treats their own conscripts. Can't imagine how bad they'll be to the NK soldiers.
  7. If you’re 20’s “baseline” was Busch Light, Taco Bell and late nights, it’s surprisingly easy to beat it in your 50’s by living right. Amazing we can do that, and sad I didn’t behave back then.
  8. I think this war has reminded us of how Russians’ willingness to die for no reason, combined with their ability to cobble together old junk that is just barely capable of killing a few Ukrainians before getting blowed up is an effective tactic. Hard for a civilized person to believe it, but these people a Russians, not normals. In a hypothetical NATO v Russian/Belarussian/NK alliance are we sure we could beat these guys? Are we sure we wouldn’t run out of missiles and bombs before they ran out of Landa’s and conscripts?
  9. I don't endorce foreign shenanigans, our Government picking winners/losers. But let's tip our hat to the puppet masters for this one.
  10. The Gronk actor plays him as a caricature of a dumb gym bro. What I'm saying is he nailed it. Belichick I don't know if he's accurate, but I like him regardless.
  11. I'm up to ep 4. They're doing a good job of making him both a sympathetic and despicable character.
  12. I know the hiring manager and we have spoken. There will be 2-3 other interview panelists and I'm not going to know who they are until day-of.
  13. And/or let them freeze to death this winter.
  14. There won't be any trees left after this.
  15. I wanna see Iranian drone factories doing that.
  16. I swear I'm done with this guy but the Youtube algo pushes a show on me and I watch it and I get mad. Just can't stop myself. Well if I'm gonna suffer so are you. Guest seems like an OK guy. Studies censorship in Brazil. Rogan pivots to the vax, only to have his guest day, "I'm not an expert. I don't know." No problem there; Rogan has a blank canvas to throw poop at. Thirty minutes in and he's trying to understand statistics. "How can they say the vax saves lives when 80% of America took it?" Guest tries to straighten him out on basic statistics, fails, and just starts agreeing with him. Mistake. Rogan tries to convince him the Polio vax did more harm than good. Guest just kinda nods.
  17. Applying for an internal role with my current employer and I see the application page lets me post an optional cover letter. I’ve worked with the hiring manager in the past and will likely get an interview. So help me pro/con this. How much does a cover letter help you beyond getting an interview? What all should I say in the letter. To get it out of the way, so you don’t hafta ask: I have my profile pic on our internal “LinkedIn.” It’s a virtual interview but I’m gonna dress a little bit better than I would at the office. And wear pants. I may be required to give a brief presentation. I’m already prepping for that. TIA
  18. Lotsa great tech comes out of military spending. Trama medicine, satellite stuff, Hot Pockets. All contribute to the economy.
  19. Well that’s even worse. Again though. Let’s try to harness this thing somehow.
