  1. I hadn’t heard of the HAWK. Maybe I can save someone else a google https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIM-23_Hawk
  2. As I was reading, I was wondering how they could make it across the Atlantic without a tug. They should probably bring 2 or 3… do we provide a tow when all their shit fails?
  3. The one place Ukraine can consult is high value weaponry. It won’t seem like high tech to a random person on the street, but it do.
  4. I almost never say this FAKE this woman emerges from the fucking bush with her foot in a rock and her momentum somehow carries her to the right where she’s also expecting to catch the stair handle? Then hubby just lurches to the stairs knowing he doesn’t need to go down.
  5. Thank you for your sacrifice. This is how we know it’s time for the fed to cut rates.
  6. Almost everything is suddenly going Ukraines way. They’re still conceding tiny amounts of territory in the east, but Russia lost ~39k men in May, which is a new personal best for Putin. Russia has lost so many armored vehicles that we now see very few AVs at the front. It’s just motorcycles, Chinese golf carts, ATVs, and the Russian Loaf vans. Ukraine somehow still has a big FPV advantage and they’re maintaining something like an 8:1 K:D right now. They’re butt fucking Russian logistics in Russia in the north. This is great compared to 6 weeks ago.
  7. This mother fucker in here pushing ivermectin and YouTube doctors telling the rest of us to show our work
  8. I loved that movie as a kid
  9. Jordan is an important ally, I think we’re good with the deal
  10. It’s irrational bullshit that car washing isn’t allowed. Enforce using a self closing nozzle on the hose and the 2 bucket method. With all the mega users out there, it pisses me off that I might get reported for the once or twice a year I want to hand wash my cars using a low water method.
  11. Confederate flag is a nice touch
  12. The article you posted explains what they did pretty well if you’re still able to read. Do you recall that interest rates were near zero for a very long time? Remember that pandemic that required stimulus and resulted in a lot more dollars in circulation looking for returns? Yotta was about as fun as a savings account can be. It’s a good idea and it was reasonably well executed. It’s not particularly surprising that rapidly rising interest rates caused deposit flight from yotta, stressed the fuck out of their business model, and forced them to halt withdrawals.
  13. Apparently, fucking anything looks better than the warped and rippled, bare stainless steel
  14. Good lord UATX https://www.uaustin.org/
  15. At this point the strategic ambiguity is an advantage for Ukraine. It sucks that our policy reversal took so long but now that it’s happening, it’s okay to milk it imo
  16. Wait so this was a divorced dad spending only limited time with his kid? For fuck sake, make the kid jog with you on the sidewalk in the neighborhood if you think he needs to run. He’s 6, it won’t be hard to keep up
  17. Where is that j’covan brown giant nuts gesture pic after he hit that game winner when I fuckin need it
  18. Holy fuck at that all time chart sorry man
  19. Can you elaborate? I come to this thread for weather and I’m learning how to human traffic
  20. Looked out my car window and this cute little guy was staring at me.
  21. No one is actually laughing at it. Stopping a Chinese invasion will be extremely challenging and extremely costly to Taiwan and the United States. War games predict US subs rampaging but most also predict the US losing aircraft carrier(s). China is going to lob a metric fuck ton of missiles at Taiwan and US assets in the area. This is not something we want and there’s no guarantee we will actually prevail. The best thing we can do is continue to arm Taiwan to the fucking teeth, strengthen our alliances in the area (and their military might), and get the fuck out of the Middle East so we can concentrate more of our navy in the pacific to deter China from trying. The long term concern for me WRT a conflict with China is shipyard capacity. China’s ship building capacity is similar to our during world war 2. Ours can’t even maintain the fleet we have and surging money into it isn’t fixing it.
  22. Big dick move is firing him after they beat aggy.
