    neuroplasticity reduces with age but your brain obviously still changes over time because, y'know, memories.~

    Your brain is a muscle, use it or lose it. That never stops being true.

    It doesn't. The crew of the sub probably should though.

    I dunno, if your doctor diagnosed you with 10 simultaneous different kinds of rare cancer, you'd probably think "damn that's a lot of cancer" because relative to the 0 or 1 kinds of cancer that most people have that actually is quite a lot of cancer, you cancerous pedant.

    That nuclear sub has to make it past hundreds or thousands of miles of AWACS first.

    How many do you consider "many"?

    10? 20?



    Poor vinny, thinks $15 a month is "many monies"

    The US has 10 Nimitz-classes and they're making 10 Gerald R. Ford-class to replace the entire fleet. That's a fuckton of aircraft carriers.

    Originally posted by Lanny Like sure, the unrealistic beauty standard thing does cut both ways, but the idea that you can’t get a girl if you’re not up to some standard of physical attractiveness is just empirically false. My buddy in high school was really overweight and looked like a human chipmunk and that dude pulling girls left and right because he was funny/personable/sold weed. I was _salty_ about it at the time haha, but really you don’t have to be a model by any stretch and it was a good lesson to learn.

    And conversely I’ve known very good looking dudes who couldn’t get a date because they were socially awkward as hell. Honestly having a good sense of humor and being able to have a casual conversation is a better strategy for getting bitches than looks any day off the week.

    There are 30 year old virgins in this world and my goofy, awkward, tranny ass still managed to pull a couple cuties before I started whoremoans. You don't even need to be funny or able to hold a casual conversation, you just have to... uhh... 🤷‍♀️

    Real issue is tanks are last-century tech stemming from last-century martial philosophy, see: the smoldering ruins of Russian tanks at the start of the war. I think it's only fair that Ukraine is given the opportunity to get their shit fucked by Ivan in exactly the way they were fucking Ivan's shit a year ago.

    Originally posted by aldra tanks are tanks; they all do basically the same thing, it's mostly just a question of survivability. the point is that the characteristics of the specific ones they want limit their range and logistic ability, not to speak of maintenance and training requirements etc

    you're right, motorcycle brigades and technicals are the only sound strategy

    its like you aren't even worried about sn-risk smh

    Originally posted by aldra look at the weight difference between Soviet and Russian MBTs vs those two; a base T72 is like 45 tonnes vs. almost 70.

    Soviet-era infrastructure was designed with this in mind

    Yeah, they'll fuck up roads and I wouldn't want to drive one over a bridge, like I said. But please do bear in mind, these tanks are also Soviet-era. As in, "Ukraine was literally the expected environment for the Abrams and Leopard to operate in". You know what else fucks up bridges? Explosions. Not being able to cross them was expected, regardless of weight.

    "they'll fuck up pontoon crossings"? are you high?



    ukraine rivers are very special you see. nothing like bosnian rivers, which can be pontooned by MBTs. ukrainian river water is highly corrosive (on account of chernobyl), and as such pontoons suffer a -50% geographic debuff to structural integrity.

    "they'll obliterate roads"

    no shit. great thing about tanks:


    "b-but muh muddy springtime ukrainian weather they'll get stuck"

    yeah probably, so why the fuck not say that instead of a bunch of asinine bullshit

    (presumably because the muddy season is, as the name suggests *seasonal*, so that's barely even relevant to whether or not having tanks would do some good)

    Originally posted by aldra the Abrams and Leopards (most likely candidates) are way too heavy for the region; at almost 70 tonnes they'll obliterate roads, fall through bridges and fuck up pontoon crossings

    You guys are just as strict. Unless I become rich and/or famous, I'd be denied entry to the US too (even that's no guarantee, but money talks and bullshit like having having celebrity status to lose really puts uncle Sam's mind at ease). My best hope rn would probably be applying for permission to enter the country in advance, which if I recall correctly costs something like $1000USD. And that's just for the privilege of having your application reviewed and given a bit of thought - it's not like it guarantees entry, or necessarily even improves your odds of being permitted entry into the US. I'd like to believe it does improve your chances, but honestly the option probably just exists so relatively wealthy individuals with spotty, criminal histories can avoid wasting their time on a flight/in line at a border crossing when they're destined to be turned back.

    Originally posted by aldra I'll get it if I see it on sale

    I remember Rizzo and others ranting about it when it was an ascii game but the layout just pissed me off too much to give it a try

    it's not gonna be on sale for a long time (per the company selling it), but the steam version and free version are the same you're literally just paying for the texture pack. scummy move would be: buy the game full price, copy all the graphics folders from data/vanilla, and do a no questions asked steam refund. :^)

    Originally posted by Haxxor Semantics is the study of the meaning of words, phrases, sentences and text. This can be broken down into subcategories such as formal semantics (logical aspects of meaning), conceptual semantics (cognitive structure of meaning) and today's focus of lexical semantics (word and phrase meaning)

    word enhancements are lexically anti-semantic

    bcos they obfuscate meaning

    On the other hand, it is something I'd doubt considering nobody who fucks that much talks about how much they fuck. Straight-up some 40 Year Old Virgin "boobs feel like bags of sand" or whatever type shit.

    Originally posted by methman I tried something, here:


    1 - 24 "60 MG" pills grinded into powder.
    2 - added what we call here "Paint Thinner" to the pill powder in a jar, shaked and let sit in the jar with lid on until solids at the bottom with now cloudy paint thinner.
    3 - enhancemented the cloudy paint thinner into a pyrex dish leaving the solids at the bottom, repeated the second step, enhancemented again leaving the solids at the bottom.
    4 - Evapourated the cloudy paint thinner until almost gone.
    5 - Scrapped the remainings and washed with acetone, was left with white little shiny crystalline looking powder (not all of it looks shiny) with a weight of 0.28 gm.



    Testing:

    - The white shiny looking powder in water, Ph level 6 - 6.5
    - Soluble in water.
    - Insoluble in Acetone.
    - Not very soluble or almost Insoluble in toluene.
    - Almost soluble in Xylene.


    Any comments about the extracted powder are more than welcome about , i will try again using the other solvent "what they call here naphtha which smells more like gasoline/kerosene", will post again about the results.
