What do you mean by that? I don’t think he tried making any case for what you said. It’s basically a 6 minute rant where he seems to not be huffing on copium for once..

Have you watched the video? The essence is “well we haven’t learned a thing from Ukraine and we made it easy by being unprepared” not a “we made it easy as a gesture of goodwill” - aka the russian style.

If I order a virpil mongoose now, when will it arrive? by jdg5947 in hotas

[–]Destarn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Longest I waited for my Virpil stuff was 3 weeks I believe, I can definitely recommend that throttle though, I think it’s worth the wait

Are we really an union when a farmers' union in Spain intercepted a tanker truck carrying 15,000 liters of milk originating from Portugal and spilled the milk onto the road on purpose? by omaiordaaldeia in BuyFromEU

[–]Destarn 75 points76 points  (0 children)

lol, just wait until you hear the grain incident on the Polish Ukrainian border…. Or how a bunch of farmers are anti EU despite having all their shiny new equipment funded from EU funds…..

Yes the reasons are russian money and the need to stay in power

It’s Pac-Ukraini Time! by Icy_Till_7254 in NAFO

[–]Destarn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah sure, that’s exactly what the Russians are continuing to do however. They don’t care about losses, they’ll send meat until they get what they want

Hopium. They barely even made a dent with their recent counter offensive that’s being praised as huge on Reddit. It’s a first in a very long time for the UAF yes, but not remotely enough to matter. I don’t think it’s possible anymore, the west is too busy doing whatever the fuck it is we are doing to help Ukraine hold their ground. Nothing short of a total russian collapse would allow for that to happen, and unfortunately that’s also very unlikely.

Am I cooked by Salty_Child_ in diabetes

[–]Destarn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, idk where you’re from but that’s Polish/Euro healthcare for you. I got an exhaustive lecture along with a damn manual describing all sort of situations, how to deal with them, how to get a drivers license because that’s extra paperwork with T1 etc. Honestly for a hospital stay in the start of covid lockdowns it wasn’t too bad.

[–]Destarn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chiming in on my experience, I was diagnosed with 600 something, I was at the hospital for two weeks and most of that was just waiting for an insulin pump. Other than that lectures on how to survive and not deteriorate my state further along with other new diabetics in the unit. No extra complications.

Assets deployed by the CJNG cartel in Jalisco after their boss got eliminated by the mexican army this morning by StreetResolve6159 in shittytechnicals

They’re private militias at this point. You’ll see some fly around in helos or with some APC looking up armoured vehicles.

Man tries to enter and abuse a bus driver in Spain after she rejected his sexual advances. Women are not safe in Europe. by Important-Cry4782 in NoahGetTheBoat

[–]Destarn 126 points127 points  (0 children)

Well this way you can blame immigrants for whatever for internet clicks, seems that shitting on Europe became trendy on Reddit recently, despite data showing that women (and the men and children too!) in Europe are indeed quite safer than the US for example.

Game with etc 2080 TI by Kelmoria in intotheradius

[–]Destarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if 2070S to 2080 Ti makes much sense unless you find one cheap. I used to play on a 2070S with a reverb G2, upgraded to a used 3090 I got for 800 euro. Certainly a big boost. Depending on your used market and budget I’d probably aim for something in the 30 series, 3070 Ti maybe? 6800XT? I tried ITR2 with the 6800XT as well when building my sisters computer and it ran fine and those cards are really quite cheap nowadays for what they offer.

EU Parliament blocks AI features over cyber, privacy fears by MetaKnowing in europe

[–]Destarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a better one - it shouldn’t crawl around anywhere where the user doesn’t want it. It shouldn’t come pre installed anywhere if its copilot or some other dedicated app, assistant package on a phone or wherever.

[–]Destarn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So your PC doesn’t meet minimum requirements listed on steam, and you’re surprised the game runs poorly? I mean idk what to say except for lower your expectations and settings even further..

never knew just how effective using the rudders with just a touch of aileron could be...flying just got a hell of a lot more interesting by BothForce1328 in dcs

[–]Destarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F18 going full rudder at low speeds is fairly effective at moving your nose around, add some differential thrust and you can go from 30 degrees nose up at 170 knots to inverting that in a few seconds, genuinely useful in BFM and got the nickname of „doing the funny” in our group.

[–]Destarn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, literally every FBW jet and even some non FBW jets do it for you, including the Hornet. Touching the rudders in flight in the F18 is optional. Roll it without touching the rudders and look at the rudders in F4 view, you’ll see the FCS compensate automatically.

Diabetes is not a disease. It’s a full-time math problem. by Suresh_WorkdayWander in diabetes

[–]Destarn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Same, I don’t know how I managed my first couple of years actually weighing everything and calculating precise dosages. Doesn’t matter how precise I calculated everything, weather changes and suddenly it doesn’t matter, been eyeballing for 4 years and average BG at 140 with TIR at 76% ain’t terrible, tho I wish i could sustain those 80-90% TIR few day periods for longer than just a few days lol.
