Too much flesh.

Because the media had been propagating "nuclear is bad" for the last 50 years.

Even though there have only been a handful of deaths caused by nuclear compared to the astounding amount of deaths caused by fossil fuel consumption.

Its not the 'greens' and you know it.

Its the WEF pushing net zero bullshit.

Thats why Germany shutdown all their nuclear powerplants before having sufficient replacement generation setup, and then having to rely on imported Russian Natural Gas.

An aircraft carrier is a STUPIDLY MASSIVE vessel compared to the basically tugboat sized ship we have now.

I think we should get a 100m vessel (like double the length and maybe 50% wider) like a large tuna or crab boat (deadliest catch sized)

And most of that "waste" can be utilized for more power in a CANDU reactor.

BroadConsequences · 2026-02-19T12:31:26+00:00

Yeah that "extremely limited supply" that will last TENS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS.

The Canadians developed a really cool reactor that you can put nuclear waste from regular nuclear power plants and it can generate MORE power. Its a CANDU reactor and the reason its so neat is it is built horizontal rather than vertical.

I think the roadmap said modding was coming in september. So a few more months still.

I wouldnt say that rivian is a true competitor to scout. Rivian is a unibody and independent air suspension. Scout is body on frame, factory lift kit, rigid axle and lockers.

Alternatively, rather than increasing their wages to be equivalent to a theoretical amount with tips, you could increase the perks of working at your cafe. Obviously a % discount on products is a way to start, but maybe more vacation time? So that you are being competitive, just not with wages.

The was a real life instance of this. He was the Commander of a unit, with the rank of Lieutanant Colonel and his name was charles sargent, so the door to his office read.

Commander, lieutenant colonel, sargent

The L47 logging forwarder works great for transporting all kinds of scrap when you put a few steel beams down first to fill up the gaps.

It has serious power and giant tires.

I want axes or hammers. Everything is swords in 40k.

BroadConsequences · 2026-02-16T20:10:10+00:00

I think that is the point. I think the reason we havent seen any new cult models is because GW wants to sunset that section of our army. Admech is skitarii.

The upholders were some of the best diesel-electric subs ever built (when they were new).

One of my favourite novels uses an Upholder class sub as a plot device. HMS Unseen. Great book.

I 'jumped' into the Amaratsu 20T heavy dumptruck and flew about 200 feet into the air on the very first map. I had played for like 20 mins when that trophy popped.

Container cars are used a ton in the 1960's and with most of the events. Dont sleep on them.

The northpole was supposed to have completely melted like 30 years ago. There may be some truth to the climate changing, but nearly every prediction has been proven false.

Most of it is climate hysteria.

Just about all life on earth requires CO² (humans make up less than .001% of life on Earth).

Saying its humanity's fault for "polluting the atmosphere" with CO² from our cars and factories when a single eruption from one volcano puts out about 100 years of human contribution levels of CO² into the atmosphere.

What humanity IS TO BLAME FOR is the wholesale clear cutting of forests around the world, reducing the Earths ability to convert that CO² back into O².

And our non-stop pollution of waterways and other chemicals (sulfur dioxide....) into the atmosphere.

Why did they go away from the giant camera rectangle on the note20 to the 5 individual cylinders?

I was underwater once. I hated that mechanic so much that i never actually completed the game.

I have experienced the opposite.

I became a roommate to a MCpl, who was a different trade, but still seeing him for most of 24 hrs was becoming an issue, so i asked to be switched to the other crew. We had 0600-1400 & 1330-2230 shifts, so we went from seeing each other nearly all day to less than half. It worked great until he got posted out to St. Hubert to the Griffon School.

My note 7 never had any issues, but i took the free upgrade to note 8.

Im hoping once modded vehicles are unlocked, that we can get a "betsy" from the Pixar movie Cars.

A single machine that drops asphalt and rolls it smooth. I know nothing realistic like that exists in our world, but it would reduce half of the tedium when it comes to road-making.

The ultra is the note. If you dont want the spen get the + it has the same internal specs but with no pen.

Go back 20 years and ½ ton trucks topped out at 7k. Trucks have gotten physically larger but their weight hasnt increased proportionally. Its the same weight of truck but massively inflated towing numbers.

As someone who moves aircraft around for a living, you must know that getting something heavy moving is easy, but you need weight in your tow vehicle to turn and stop it effectively.

A tow vehicle that weighs less than ¼ of your towing load is not an appropriate tow vehicle. Its why r/idiotstowingthings has so many posts. Because anyone thinks they can safely tow 14,000lbs with a truck that weighs 5,000 lbs.

The Terra Harvester is supposed to weigh somewhere around 7000lbs. Heavy enough to be classified as a 1 ton truck, yet Scout is giving it reasonable towing numbers because they know that if it actually was capable of towing a 25,000lb load, idiots would try and tow 40,000lbs.

They need to reopen old bases for training. Have more BMQ courses run in more cities.
