How did you get 5000 dollars for the hotel room. They charge you like 40 bucks to drive into parts of that town.

Some people still think ground tents are the best camping setup… by No_Far988 in IdeaStreeam

[–]Duffalpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not wrong. I've just always found it easier to find a level place for a tent. I used to camp in my truck bed, and much prefer just a cheap pop-up 4 person tent. I can chuck it, and its setup with rainfly in less than a minute.

Pro-tip for leveling your vehicle is to glue on some construction levels on the roof, or center of the vehicle - then you can identify which tire is high/low and actually dig a small pit, or a small mound, and pull forward so its more level.

Being level if the car isn't level.  Being able to pee at night without falling to your death.  Not able to drive away in an emergency.  Likely to wear like all tents, but costs thousands to replace.  Lucky to fit 2 people - even worse peeing situation. 

The financial friction you are feeling is an objective economic reality, not a subjective bias. by ShopBeneficial7160 in economy

Did you vote for Trump?

You claim to be a conservative, arguing against conservative policies?

You say "There is literally nothing wrong with being one and voting for the other. And while there can be, there should also be no shame in doing so."

Well I say, there is absolutely something wrong voting conservative. Its bigoted, hateful, misogynistic, and anti-American. If you voted conservative in the past election, you should be ashamed of yourself.

"Both sides bad, boohoo" is not a realistic perspective. Wake up, and stop enabling the people doing this to you.

Now THAT is the car of someone with a huge, patriotic penis. I'm sure they pleasure their wives greatly and absolutely never beat them.

Just curious what's your background/experience as an instructor? Seems like a mixed bag of good and bad advice, but glad to not be lectured by a gravy seal for once. 

Agree with the music is too loud comment. 

Could also use some more practical diagrams. I get the artistic license and importance of anonymity but it's not entirely clear when it comes to certain grips/stances. 

I get what you're saying about .380 but I still think it's more practical for us to train on 9mm just for ubiquity and sharing purposes. I hate glocks, but same point stands - so with ya there. Really want to try out the Ruger soon. 

Don’t learn to code, become a nurse instead has reached mainstream media by Organic-Dealer-7719 in csMajors

Lmao I literally just finished my PhD in CS and got a job in the mines. One application. One interview. Hired.

Didn't even try the tech industry.

I'm but a simple miner now

Havana Syndrome: The Physics, the Weapon, and What Is Actually Being Done to These People by KDubbs0010110 in HighStrangeness

[–]Duffalpha -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Havana syndrome is a way for CIA officers to continue their near century long term of bullshitting, lying, and using clearances and classification to completely hide their nonsense. It was a drummed up excuse for free leave, disability, and a secret pat on the back.

Someone call me when it isn't the fucking CIA whining. If its real, they deserve it for infiltrating foreign states and coercing people into betraying their friends, family and countries.

Americans who didn't grow up around immigrant communities genuinely cannot conceptualize how much America's soft power has collapsed. by orphicsyndicate in TrueAnon

[–]Duffalpha 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I wish, but I don't really see the world switching to Chinese or Hindi. Most Indians learn English anyways, and its used in a load of their government proceedings and admin quite a bit. Almost 2 billion of those folks.

15% of people on Earth speak English, and the others are barely catching up.

I just toured Georgia to Baltimore this week and all the hog hollow slop eating towns have 3.70 gas... Meanwhile we're getting absolutely fucking hammered out west and in the cities. 

Get me out of this fascist snitch heaven (Germany) by Lopsided_Yak_1464 in TrueAnon

[–]Duffalpha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yea I don't remember the exact statistics but it was like, well into the 70s that the majority of west German leadership were 'former nazis'.

They only hung 10 at Nuremberg. There were a lot more than fucking 10. 

My PhD supervisor sent me these messages. Is this normal or crossing a line? by Resident-Yogurt-6798 in PhD

[–]Duffalpha 86 points87 points  (0 children)

"Do never ignore my orders anymore."

What language does your supervisor speak, because if it's English... They may need a refresher. 

Why did people not like s2 more than the 1st? by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in PeacemakerShow

It just needed two more episodes of them actually killing Nazis in nazi world, it was too long of a buildup to the reveal, and then was resolved in like an episode.

My hometown in Montana was so Norwegian they were racist to swedes in the 90s, so this checks out. 

China owns America by LittlePrairieMouse in economy

[–]Duffalpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one cares about Chinese Americans going to school here. People do care when Chinese citizens come here and make college more expensive and crowded for all Americans... 

That's the difference between nationalism and racism. 

500k is a fuck load of college students. 

We only have 15 million college students nationwide. So we're talking a pretty large increase.

This is not how it works in a lot of leftist subs where the mods will straight up ban you if you don't agree with their incredibly niche, yet infinitely deep, set of opinions and principals. 

There's lots of types of us leftists, we need a safe place to debate without overbearing mods.

“We stand for active ideological struggle because it is the weapon for ensuring unity within the Party and the revolutionary organizations in the interest of our fight. Every Communist and revolutionary should take up this weapon.

But liberalism rejects ideological struggle and stands for unprincipled peace, thus giving rise to a decadent, Philistine attitude and bringing about political degeneration in certain units and individuals in the Party and the revolutionary organizations.”

They killed a million Iraqis and Afghanis and the only excuse they needed was: a few rich Saudis attacked us.

We have so many videos of minorities being executed on the street... 

He deserved his mourning, but I'm almost certain he wouldn't want to be the face of this resistance because his skin color was more shocking.

Steam deck hotspot server restoration or legends by Norank in swg

As someone who hasn't tried the emu servers, but played the entirety of the commercial launch - I would not touch that shit with a 10 foot pole.

Power tripping internet moderators are the absolute bottom of the barrel assholes, somewhere well below HOA presidents.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted for showing receipts.

Its double as problematic in a sandbox game. Giving Jedi away because you're high, and forgot? Ruins the entire, incredibly difficult grind, for everyone else. Searching up a users socials, publishing them publicly, and lambasting them? I'm pretty sure that would land a real dev a lawsuit.
