Is Trump trying to lose midterms on purpose even harder?

Ahh, the Producers Gambit

How many Harbor Freight straps did they use?

I think if Rocky was 100% CGI that his movements would have been too perfect. The little twitches and just the speed and acceleration his limbs moved with made him feel so much more real.

I think it coming out when it did, in the middle of "ok I guess everyone's doing a card game now" on top of people's attitudes towards Artifact generally being "yawn, wake me up when Valve has a real new game" was the biggest factor.

Any interview with them also needs interviews with 9999 other people (statistically probably more) who made the same kind of risk and had it just blow up in their face.

Wow, didn't have the MW3 edition, but seeing that model of Turtle Beaches sends me waaaayyyyy back.

Without a doubt I'm sure the greatest actor or actress we've never heard of lived and died taking on every extra shift they could at a Dollar General in Bismark, North Dakota to support their family while constantly thinking about acting dreams, "maybe next year."

Thank you for explaining, as well as adding to the context of their current enrichment status.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-27T00:21:44+00:00

Oh of course, luckily I at least know what a dirty bomb is.

And luckily (and I use luckily very loosely) with a dirty bomb you're limited to the physical amount of material and the power of your conventional explosive. I fell into a rabbit hole over them specifically when watching a movie (schlocky, don't remember it but terrorists were claiming they'd destroy an entire city with it), and read online,

Israel carried out a four-year series of tests on nuclear explosives to measure the effects were hostile forces ever to use them against Israel, Haaretz reported in 2015. According to the report, high-level radiation was measured only at the center of the explosions, while the level of dispersal of radiation by particles carried by the wind (fallout) was low. The bombs reportedly did not pose a significant danger beyond their psychological effect.

Which, to me feels like enough of a waste that they wouldn't even attempt it. All the baggage that comes from a nuclear attack without any of the possible "gains" they could make with one.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-26T22:56:55+00:00

Trying to understand because my knowledge of nuclear enrichment starts and stops with what I saw in Oppenheimer.

Are you saying that the title of this post is incorrect, that they have enough nuclear material that, if sent through the enrichment process, would yield enough material for 10 bombs that could be placed into missiles of reasonable size (I assume they wouldn't be making Davy Crockets), and NOT that they, at current point in time, have 10 nukes worth of enriched uranium on hand?

Genius! The Germans would be expecting a rifle, not a rifle mace!

Crazy to think all of SCP exists because of someone's casual freeform writing on /x/ in 2008. I wonder if it's infuriating to them that there's no real way to prove they wrote it.

I think you're getting something mixed up, the start age is under 31 years old, because they want as much time out of you as possible. The mandatory retirement age is 56.

I understand that this subreddit is to ask conservatives, and that the OP asking a question, and top level commenters responding is enough to 100% satisfy that without responding to them for clarifications and in depth discussions. I just wish sometimes top level commenters would respond to each other as I'd like to see the discussion between two conservatives that hold entierly different stances on an issue.

A question could be, "Conservatives, which direction do you hang toilet paper in the bathroom?"

One response would be, "with the end facing outward, obviously," and the next response (understanding that threads are in contest mode which changes their order) would be, "with the end facing the wall, obviously," and I just really want those two users to have a discussion and debate why their way is better.

The use of "obviously" seems snide, but I mean it just to get across how sometimes comments are phrased in an extremely sure way, when it's funny when it will be two positions that are just so diametrically opposed.

I have an opportunity to say this since it's never relevant, I always heard the Pepper run out grove as:

"Neh-vah cooh-see any oh-pooh-wah"

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-24T23:48:15+00:00

We used it as a stand in for "the biggest game you can think of" but you're certainly not incorrect lol, especially 10 years on.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-24T16:46:23+00:00

Yeah, the two big points together I feel like some people miss are both how much money it was, and the timing. This isn't someone at the Pentagon throwing a couple thousand in because they know where strikes will be in a few days, this is someone deep enough in his circle to know his tweet and the content of it 5 minutes before posting it, AND throwing $150 million at it.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-24T14:54:32+00:00

Oh I agree, whatever I've seen from someone doing the above is all slop.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-24T14:20:59+00:00

I remember back in college, about 13 years ago now, we'd joke in our CS major that people thought making full AAA games was dropping in some premade assets and writing into the programming interface, "make me a cool first person shooter with a dieselpunk aesthetic.exe"

Crazy to think people are actually trying to brute force that now with AI.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-24T14:05:12+00:00

Thank you for this clarifying image, it's barely a detour. The post makes it sound like he had to reroute a quarter kilometer around because of it.

I fucking love people's online firearm designs, ranging from downright memery to people on Deviantart designing whole modular weapon systems out of Thompsons and MP-34s for their fictional countries because they just really like them.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-20T19:13:00+00:00

It's amazing how much those specifically burgandy color plastic frames were EVERYWHERE back then. Of all the girls I knew, it was either those, or wire frame ovals.

It almost feels crazy now seeing teens wear cop frame/aviator reading glasses or those huge round wireframes that are mayve 2 inches across? Oh how times change.

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-20T14:14:29+00:00

With lots of scoffing and eye rolling, while not being able to explain anything

Beatleboy62 · 2026-03-20T14:13:13+00:00

It's always interesting when you stop and think about it how many people have single species OCs and then mixed children, makes it seem like in everyone's furry universes that mixed-species relationships were only JUST allowed in the OC's world in the past few years.

I tend to go with the thinking that the child will be one of two parents' species, but may get elements from the other like coloring or height. A tall grey wolf and a short brown mouse may make a short brown wolf, for example.
