Originally posted by Kafka It's more that I don't take notice of people, I use them as soundboards while talking to myself. It's also true that I'm not as biased and petty as most people here, I prefer to be honest, I prefer facts. There's no progress when discussions are just biased squabble. I'm also not as self-absorbed as everyone thinks, I'm very observant and a good judge of character, but I don't tell people what I think of them or ask personal questions because it seems impolite.

2024-05-10 at 1:23 AM UTC in Are you looking forward to the big war with Iran?that's the point, offensive weapons always advance faster than defensive ones so a single $10 billion ship is a huge liability. they're primarily for bullying countries that have no way to fight back. a peer or near peer is going to be able to saturate AA/AD (using hypersonics and/or modern ASBMs) and kill the carrier for a fraction of its cost.
I suspect China is building them primarily as a symbol of prestige to show that they're part of the Big Boys Club rather than any practical purpose. -

vtol and stovl are vertical and near-vertical takeoff and landing where the plane's jets actually rotate, but they're extremely overengineered and prone to failure. relatively few jets use the system because they're so expensive and problematic. you wouldn't want your whole air wing in that configuration.
older carriers have a ramp at the end of the runway so that planes can get enough altitude to not just fall into the ocean.
newer carriers use a hydraulic catapult, like a slingshot that increases the speed of the jet taking off so that it can do so from a shorter runway and without a ramp to give it lift. runways can be shorter and more compact but again it adds more points of failure -

Originally posted by Michael Myers No way, are you serious? That's fucked up.
yeah I'll see if I can find the articles
one of them was actually a Daily Mail article about our 'eSafety Commissioner' being a lunatic deviant into orgies and dressing like a leather piggie or something like that, and some British e-celeb shared it.
the eSafety commission in Australia tried to force twitter to take the post down (the guy sharing it, not the actual Daily Mail article), fining them $700,000 a day for each day it remained up, last I heard twitter hid the post pending legal investigation -

Originally posted by Michael Myers I'm not sure if kroz said that, but I remember saying I wanted to try heroin because I knew I wouldn't get addicted since I never got addicted to tobacco despite smoking for years (just to hang out with friends, to kill time) and caffeine never kept me up. Perhaps you're confusing him for me?
that is the most ridiculous way to get addicted to heroin -
