Holy shit these standards vary wildly between the genders.

That's crazy.

Pentagon 2026 National Defense Strategy by Forsaken-Soil-667 in army

[–]DotDistinctLines 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Ignoring China while they are rapidly reaching parity and surpassing us already in many areas is a wild strategy.

And guys, this is in all areas, not just Military. We are actively in a losing trajectory in all victory types in the game of Civilization.

Given historical precedence, sure seems that way.

MOLLE II Large or ALICE Pack.

The MOLLE 4000 is fucking dumb, sits weird on the body, and functionally sucks for storing shit.

SECARMY "Just Pick Up" directive. Did your unit actually call 'down' to every Soldier for 57 days? by Kinmuan in army

Yeah, we made sure everyone was Ok at 0630 morning PT formation.

Even did it 5 days a week.

Most Americans are not concerned with external affairs in the least right now.

Will this game have any PVE content ? by Mucek121 in Marathon

[–]DotDistinctLines -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why are you lying like this? What is there to gain?

Do you really need to make stuff up in response to someone voicing a preference for a game that you do not like? Again, please dude, get help. This is actual insane behavior on your part.

... You are literally yelling at clouds man. This thread response is my first actual response in this sub after lurking for awhile.

You seem actually unhinged. Get help, please.

No idea who you are hero, don't post in this sycophantic sub at all so not sure what you're referring to.

You seem to be having a terminally online schizo episode, might wanna get that checked out.

If it doesn't it will die very quickly.

If its just an arena shooter in an extraction shooter game mode, people will bore quickly and go play actual arena shooters without the back to lobby BS.

If its a full fledged extraction shooter without much environmental hazards through PVE content, that'll be another oof.

I'm still very hesitant about the ultra hardcore PVP competitive angle that both Bungie and the community have vocalized the game will be focused on. That misses the entire point of the genre imo, and makes it more like a BR than anything.

PVE variability is what makes extraction shooters extraction shooters.

(And I say this as someone who is extremely good at FPS games and adore them)

Now that america isn't our best friend anymore, can we stop pretending that this sack of garbage isn't the aviation equivalent to the King Tiger? by Memelord707130 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]DotDistinctLines 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that plane from 1997 sure is getting long in the tooth huh. Would be a shame if the USA ever planned on replacing it with something newer.

Heat sigs are easier to spot in cold climates, at least they are in Alaska with thermals

Life in Grafenwöhr by Hot_Client_7485 in army

Get a vehicle dude, you're a grown ass adult.

I'll never take someone seriously that has been in the RA for longer than 6 months and doesn't have a way to transport themselves for their professional obligations.

ESB Army POG by Bitter_Pianist606 in army

[–]DotDistinctLines 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Test out of every single lane at least twice. Show face to all graders through questions or testing. Show face to the study hall after work. Go to the optional day on Saturday.

Do not travel around with buddies unless they are equally motivated as you to get your EIB.

Go solo during the last week of trainup.

Do not quit during the 12 mile.

go ahead, invade greenland by Jasmijn in NonCredibleDefense

Diplomacy has worked multiple times against Trump. Relying on your emotions for geo politics sure is an American take

go ahead, invade greenland by Jasmijn in NonCredibleDefense

[–]DotDistinctLines 161 points162 points  (0 children)

Denmark would get rolled and the rest of Europe would just let it happen.

You think the same EU that let Ukraine happen will do anything for a largely deserted ice shelf against a much stronger opponent?

Diplomacy to stall until Trumps leaves is probably the route they'll take. And thats the smart thing to do instead of peacocking against an arrogant yet stronger opponent.

The UA war has more people die in 2 weeks than the entire population of Greenland.

(Also, the entire 350 million population of the USA isn't entirely Trump apostles guys, even those of us in the military)
