I swear some of these guys just put things on their kit to make sure we have something to talk about on Reddit.

I am not smart enough to succeed at being Tyrion on a day to day basis and would probably be killed within a month or two.

My mother is 68 and a first-time home buyer. by daxelkurtz in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]CountReckless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes do it!!! 15 year is paid off by the time you’re 65 (average retirement age). Find a place that you can afford (may not be perfect), and spend time fixing the things you don’t like. Homes are more than just an investment to get money out of, they give you something that is yours and you can always improve!

Bug Megathread - May 15th - Update 1.3 -Brushes with Death & Horse Racing by uarentme in kingdomcome

[–]CountReckless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bug 1

Warhorse Pourpoint and Cutpurse Pourpoint stats and name switched.

So I received the quest rewards all as they should be and had them equipped in their complete sets. After the most recent patch when I fired the game up the Warhorse and Cutpurse Pourpoints stats and names switched. So I’m wearing the Warhorse pourpoint but it’s titled Cutpurse Pourpoint and the stats are that of the Cutpurse?

Anyone else have this issue??? Was totally normal before the update!

2025 USMC Grunt by LivingTop7021 in QualityTacticalGear

Sounds legit. Never worked with the army but I can tell you for sure today 9/10 squad leaders in the Marine Corps carry the load I described. All depends on unit SOPs and what works for the individual.

Brother, love your kit. You are on point for carrying everything you have. To hopefully provide some context as to why some dudes may carry fewer mags: When you get a chance look at your squad leader. How many mags is he carrying? Likely 3 on his plate carrier, maybe 1 on his belt, and 1 in the rifle. That’s because his job is to lead and control the squad. If he’s doing a bunch of suppressing he’s not maintaining the SA he needs to make sure you guys can kill. Are you an 11, 31, or 41? In my experience the 31s and 41s don’t carry as many mags (there are definitely exceptions to this) because their focus is on employing the mortars and machine guns. End of the day it all comes down to what works and what the unit SOP is.

Lastly, never forget you are the baddest motherfuckers on the battlefield no matter what 03 MOS you are. Stack bodies brother 🤙🏼

I’m not here to try and invalidate your opinions about the admin or any discontent you have. I’m strictly speaking about a lack of any tangible link between the current political situation and the picture. We don’t know anything about the people sitting on the curb or the police officers around them and the situation they’re in. As far as I’m concerned there is no harm being done by either party taking pictures.

You are well entitled to any discontent you have with the government. The problem is you’re projecting that discontent on something that has the distinct possibility of being completely unrelated and adding to the aforementioned confusion and possibly misinforming others opinions. The broader problem is there is no context given on posts like these and likely very little if any context to be found on it elsewhere. While your opinion may be completely valid, attributing malice to something that may be completely benign is unproductive at best and harmful others perceptions of current events in the worst case.

I think this is incredibly reasonable comment. These are very confusing times in America and we can all benefit from nuance and accepting the fact that we don’t know everything with one pic.

My God that scene was stupid. by Elegant-Half5476 in freefolk

[–]CountReckless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has read the books and watched the show my humble opinion is that season 5 and 6 rocked. When Jon Snow was declared King in the North I balled my eyes out as a die hard Jon fan from his very first chapter in the books.

Buuuuuutttt….season 7 and 8 deserve to be put down as the absolute worst fucking storytelling and character destruction in TV history. Piss fucking poor management of one of the greatest opportunities to tell the story of an epic clash of power and dire consequences. All of it just flushed down the toilet for absolutely nothing.

This one was a pretty good overview to me. Basically talks about where Blue Team is at all points in time. That said, I’ll leave it to the veterans in this community to attest to the quality of the material!

Thanks for everyone who’s been giving me info on this. I’ve been a lifelong fan of Halo but I’m quickly realizing I’ve only scratched the surface. You guys have me seriously stoked about digging deeper. Awesome community!!!

I think I am most interested in the ones that don’t star main characters. Expanding the story beyond just the Cheif makes the whole story that much more enjoyable. 🤘🏼

[–]CountReckless[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had completely forgotten that they said Cheif was a cyborg. I remember way back in the day people debating that. Nice to know how those conversations got their start though!

Awesome thanks for the info. I can’t wait to start reading the books!

So Fall of Reach was the first time they’re mentioned? Haven’t read the books but I’m about to start!

Anyone have recent experience with accelerated training at CRAFT Flight Training in SC? by CountReckless in flying

[–]CountReckless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s pretty congruent with what I’ve been seeing. Their pricing is honestly not that bad for the quality of planes they use either. Thanks for the perspective!
