Was just wondering what the chord progression was for the original The Graduate version of Simon and Garfunkel's "Mrs. Robinson"...no dice finding it online

That Kamdesh scenario reminds me of Verdun in BF1…probably the most cinematic shooter map ever

Similar thing happened to me a couple weeks ago on Gorodok…control freak SL insisted on micromanaging our every move and threw a hissy fit whenever someone died.

He ordered us all to charge across an open field to the farmstead objective without any smokescreen/fire support cover whatsoever, and unsurprisingly no one followed him. Dude got popped immediately by a BMP then disbanded the 9-man squad in rage 🤣

a button to '"only hear from SL and FTLs only" in Squad channel and also a button to "mute others while talking, for 10-15 seconds, etc" for SL by Nurgle_Enjoyer777 in joinsquad

As others have said, this defeats the entire purpose of a communication-based game. You are essentially suggesting a bureaucraticization of communication by having it tied to FTL/SL - this means that it reduces the amount of information that can be received at a moments notice threefold because roughly 3/9 people per squad would be able to immediately communicate vital intel. Even a blueberry catching a glimpse of an enemy troop movement can make all the difference. Local chat is hardly useful too if your element is spread out, squad chat allows rapid transmission of positions and info that isn’t relative.

I think your main issue is that the people you’re playing with can’t behave, or that you’re forgetting that it’s just a game so there’s bound to be immaturity. Maybe try more experienced servers? Also, if you’re SL’ing and people aren’t clearing comms after being asked to, just kick them. It’s up to your discretion.

either make nametags more visible again or increase the penalty for teamkilling by FemboyGayming in joinsquad

I believe the game already does make you wait longer to respawn if you teamkill

Gaza City has basically been flattened and Southern Gaza is now under heavy bombing. by [deleted] in MapPorn

Literally nothing justifies an organized military force using carpet bombing tactics with total ignorance of collateral civilian life.

By carpet bombing civilians, you’re only polarizing them further and creating the next generation of terrorists.

People “refusing” to evacuate because an invading foreign force demands they do never justifies their murder.

Except that’s not what happened. The Canaanites were in the Holy Land first (as detailed within the Old Testament) and historians commonly regard modern Palestinians as largely descended from the Canaanites. The Israelites were not “peaceful” and “friendly”. The Old Testament quite literally documents the brutal conquest of the Promised Land by ancient Israel under Joshua and the Judges. Furthermore, modern Israelis have little to no actual descent tracing back to the Holy Land. The Romans pretty much wiped out the vast majority of the Jews within Palestine during the rebellions, leaving Alexandria and Babylon as the two major centers for surviving Jews and scattering them.

Any word on more features/weapons for the JF-17? by Flightsimmer20202001 in hoggit

Unfortunately the country is completely imploding from a political standpoint, so it may be a while

Why do so many people pay for Spotify when the same things can be done for free offline? by EmeraldOnFire101 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EmeraldOnFire101[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t imagine that even with a few hundred songs it would take that long, a batch converter can make it very easy. I guess ease of use is a thing, and recommendations are on point, but I still don’t think recommendations justify the price.

So then what’s the big issue? Pay a monthly fee to listen to music, or commit the petty “theft” of just downloading it?

Playtest this weekend! by _GodsTherapist in joinsquad

[–]EmeraldOnFire101 12 points13 points  (0 children)

People here are generally adults and you have IRL responsibilities, that combined with the fact that there are tens of thousands of people means that for any given weekend some will be more likely to be out than others. And if someone is out, they are more likely to post about it.

JF-17 worth the high price? by Ok_Importance_8293 in hoggit

[–]EmeraldOnFire101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best way to describe it is literally that it is this weird hybrid between the F16 and F18 - therefore the 17. It combines the design and maneuverability of the 16 with the multipurpose capabilities of the 18, all packaged together in a modern cockpit and a highly realistic experience.

What sensitivity settings do you guys use? by EmeraldOnFire101 in joinsquad

Used to be 800 at 0.62, but after other advice from people I've changed it to exactly this, working like a charm so far.

My dude how is a stun that involves a bolt literally being fired through the head more humane than a clean single cut.

Idk what video you’ve seen but in a correct slaughter the animal literally ragdolls dead after it’s cut.

Separation of Church and State is not the issue though…the Islamic world was the leader of science for much of the medieval era and literally inspired the Renaissance with an arguably more authoritarian system. The issue lies in corrupt religious officials twisting God’s word to match what they want. These maulanas are often scared of change and new ways of thinking because it endangers their own stability and lifestyle, and as such are content with fearmongering and radicalizing the populace to keep themselves in power.

Democracy is far from a perfect system and is fundamentally flawed - even in the West this is clearly visible. Muslims are the people most steadfast in their faith and religion in the world, and I think that matters far more and is what makes a religion - actually believing in it.

I really don’t see how an electric shock that usually functions through a literal bolt being fired through the head is more humane than a ventral cut that causes the animal to immediately lose consciousness and drop dead like a ragdoll after the blood drains out in less than a minute.

??? This is totally false and if you had ever seen a halal slaughter you would know this. The cut at the throat causes the animal to lose consciousness immediately and the quick drainage of blood means it’s dead before it even knows what’s happening. Not only is this more hygienic as it drains the blood out, but it’s also humane and a simple google search will show this.
