  1. He just got to the shire and Bilbo kicked his ass out.
  2. The dam busting bombs in WW2 used by the Brit’s were 4000 kg. That is compared to a 500 kg normal size. Yeah. It was placed explosives on weak points to create a failure. Not shelling which is a ludicrous assertion.
  3. I very strongly view you as stupid or spectacularly uninformed.
  4. Went and watched some videos of the breached flow. That’s a lot of flow. The amount of sediment moving from the reservoir is going to be incredible. The damage is going to unreal downstream on the low bank. I also thought some more about this and the most damage would have been done with explosives in the emergency relief pipes, especially in the wet side because of the basically incompressible nature of water, which means the energy of an explosion can be directed toward the structure.
  5. Engineer here, do design of some small dams from time to time. Demo of a dam is fairly simple if you have access to its base. You just need a breach to start and it will go quickly, because water will find a way through it. Could a single missile do it? Unlikely but a bunker Buster might. On the other hand, planting explosives at the downstream base and in the intake and release structures would certainly do it with minimal chance of not working. The pictures I’ve seen show a narrow breach which indicates no catastrophic structural failure, just a breach. It’s probably still a total rebuild but I don’t see evidence of a huge flood wave resulting from it. I’ll read up some more of it today.
  6. Glad he’s fucking dead and burning in hell. Traitorous scum.
  7. I’d like you to go fuck itself in the face but apparently that’s too much to ask.
  8. OnlyFans got over saturated? Asking for a friend.
  9. Florida is actually a little bit underwhelming. And given the direction of the state vis a vis corporations I suspect that will not change. I see it as continuing to attract wealthy retirees fleeing high personal tax rates but not much else. Their infrastructure sucks and is only going to get worse. None of the natural advantages Texas or California have, plus the wonder of increasingly terrible hurricanes. The one I expect to continue growing is Georgia. A lot more so than its neighbors.
  10. Interdasting. Wonder what the overall trend is, because I thought a lot of smaller and private companies were also relocating due to tax reasons.
  11. This thread has gone so meta I can’t even keep track any more. Visionary, definitely not. Driven and successful, yes, despite his manchild tendencies. Someone who will produce Schadenfreude forever, definitely!
  12. I am not sure that animal cigarette isn’t just a shitty AI . That’s what the simulation is feeding us right now.
  13. I can barely remember my one name. The idea of alts is so exhausting it makes me want to take a nap.
