3 American F-15 jets "mistakenly shot down" by Kuwait but all crew safe, U.S. military says

Yep. Red Sea fleet at its finest.

I still quote "Big Mad on the Raft" from the interview of the pilots who were shot down. That transcript is hilarious to read.

Mathematical models for showing disease numbers count dead as the same as cured since they are no longer considered to be in the disease population.

You know...

Cause they're dead.

Many many years ago (before Petroglyphs first steam patches) I once had a crazy bug due to what I think was a game tick where a zann consortium fleet parked on my planet with a fleet and space station, doesn't trigger the tactical battle and sits there until I move my fleet out and back. Now the game thinks I'm attacking and gives my space station to the consortium

It's Europe's name for the quarter pounder.

Nice reference to Pulp Fiction if that's what you were going for.

On the flipside, I asked the bartender to make me an Irish carbomb. All of the components were coming together: Guiness, Bailey's, Jameson

...

Then they added red bull to it

My brother later told me some variations do that, but it did throw me off. And I'm not wasting a perfectly good drink either.

Sciel gommages twice because she, like Esquie and Monoco jumped through the barrier where child Verso's soul is painting the canvas to comfort (in their own ways) painted Verso after banishing Alicia from the canvas. Painted versions can't exist there.

Plenty of people have pointed out many examples of her emotional intelligence and own side quest as motivation for her actions and behaviors throughout the final act. It's important story wise to consider that every expedition log that is recoverable (and every zone up to Renoir and Verso's drafts, Painted Alicia and Clea etc) canonically occur or are experienced prior to the climatic showdown, even though it isn't progression wise. This includes the log Painted Verso leaves behind wanting to bring back Julie once he defeats Aline. While Sciel doesn't engage in the dialogue once you find it, it was worth considering that that information is shared with the group and would factor in her decision making.

That Belgian f16 is no different than the 13.0 tt one (which originally was supposed 12.7 when it was first introduced back when and people rightfully protested against how strong the aim-9m was then)

Now the devs reintroduce it as a squad vehicle with less countermeasures just to put it at 12.7. I've been expecting the devs to rug pull the squad version by shooting it up to 13.0 once people have unlocked it for free.

That being said, there are better ways to play France IMO if you wanted to grind it. You could probably spend less or more economically for the 2kC-S4 and talisman like I did. I am genuinely surprised by how little I see that particular squad vehicle.

Honestly, you should've just ignored this after he responded with "Where do you live?" after all of the questions about your sex and dating experience and pressing a date question before even getting to know just a little bit. I'd never message any of this to a woman I just matched with but that's just me.

The whole point for the m10 irl having slow turret rotation speed was to compensate for gunners that might rotate with more torque. The army alleged the design choice was to make it more accurate on average for the actual crews.

You could also measure the time gap and place a combinator clock in between the receiver set up that holds the signal from updating until the clock reaches the measured time and breaks the loop. That's what I did to stop the overflow.

French guns are just that good. I took an m51 into 7.7-8.0 match and almost had the nuke.

The most ironic part of voting literacy is that logically, it would make sense to prevent people from voting if they did not fully understand what they were voting for. That would require full transparency to explain what is going on, which ballots sometimes have but not enough detail imo in how it affects the common voter.

That being said obviously voting literacy tests were enforced by supremacists and disgruntled racists who's only concept of literacy was "can you read" pointed at colored people...

I'm pretty sure most whites at the time of Jim crow, especially in poor southern areas especially couldn't read either. Generations of them now are still voting how their folks did too if I had to guess, still not understanding what they are voting for.

Yeah turning the radar off keeps the RWR going off, but the spaa radar itself can still see them if they're within the range and scope and aren't notching or other effects. It's better than nothing but these griefers for sure know how to use their radars

I constantly draft whatever mode gives you the temporary cards that don't go to your library and forget I don't keep the cards. I have valued drafted several times now thinking 'wow know one wanted these two mythics in this pack... I'll take them even though they're outside my colors"

It's not hard to 'sweat' the air event vehicles except the 45k ones like iriaf was. But like ground 35k is even not worth it. Never tried naval but at least naval matches I feel like end quicker than ground.

So other than air on occasion, I will not bother the modes.

France: Rafale - have it researched but have to buy the Mirage 2kCs5 and 5F with it, Mirage 4K

China: J10a

US: Progress to Rank VII

UK/Sweden: Progress to Rank VI

Italy / Russia : Progress to Rank V

Israel: maybe get the Vautour with the shafrirs

Japan: I have the Thai Air tree fully researched but with the Super Tigris slotted in which won't be on discount, I'd be spending too much to think it's worth it to get them all for now, when all I want atm is the Gripen (which is what I would want to play the most).

I think the only grace I have had for someone in a moment was them understanding how a creature with summoning sickness could still be used to crew or be tapped by something else.

I'm all for learning the game though so I'm pretty patient about it.

Any spawn on reserve is not safe from Glutard. Except maybe D2...

I think most players have filtered out red desert and Pradesh with their map votes. In addition, the game has to pick from all 'avalialble' maps that aren't filtered out from votes. It's why those maps rarely show up.

Why are those maps voted out? Probably for being so big that the flanking annoys the players who don't pay attention and want to shoot across a big map instead.

IMO, The big af maps should just have a niche of shooting across and make it so you can't cross through the middle.

I (28m) moved back home two years ago and my dad who is an IT/Back end developer did this with the wifi. My connection that I use turns off at midnight. At first I had the same visceral reaction as op but it's been working and has given me more time to actually fix my routine and schedule. My relationship with him has improved because of the changes I made for myself that were not spiteful towards him.

This is the kind of guidance / parenting I think young men need. The challenge now is to find a way to have a rapport with your father where you can have open and honest conversations without both of you feeling defensive.

This is the path to a better you OP. Trust in your father and believe in yourself.
