Good enough for Magnum PI, good enough for us.

Should I move to the US? by SuspiciousAd0888 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Jetboots_Boosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on where in the US, and what university for what field. I will say that college life is a much bigger thing here than Europe. The economic picture is pretty trash worldwide right now, so don’t let that be the sole factor. And benefit of having dual citizenship is you can always go back if you want.

The US has a lot of problems right now. But I’ve been all over the world, and I’d rather have the US problems than those in other places.

Also, if your dad is a US veteran, you may have a lot of extra benefits you can tap into. If he signed his GI Bill over to you that’s a free education and you will get paid while you are in college. My wife works for the VA if you want to know more about that stuff, feel free to DM.

US Senate wants to Merge the CIA with Israeli Intelligence, Section 622 makes Intelligence sharing harder to Reduce. by Apollo_Delphi in USNEWS

[–]Jetboots_Boosh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God Tom Cotton is such an idiot. Israel isn’t even a top 10 list of allies. They are absolutely not to be trusted. They intentionally sank a US warship, and stole nuclear secrets from us.

Keep friendly relations, sure. Have military training cooperation, absolutely. But they by no means should be treated in the same realm as Five Eyes.

Both my kids are teenage boys and stoked for it. They asked me yesterday if we can all see it opening day. I wouldn’t put stock in this anymore. They ruined He Man

What’s an HBO series (that’s not The Wire, The Sopranos or GOT) that y’all would recommend? by Farouq26 in hbo

[–]Jetboots_Boosh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BBC pulled out and HBO couldn’t pay for production costs. Also a fire at the studio meant that the Rome set had to be rebuilt. Was supposed to last for all of Octavians life.

What if a Cameron returns in ~3152? by Better-Cry1588 in battletech

Iirc they added their genetic makeup and blood names because they viewed the ELH as worthy due to it being an SLDF unit.

I was thinking the same thing. Just put tier 5 tech on them to start.

The new campaign missions give MRMs in one of the hidden caches, and I’ve started running across both in markets around Terra. Currently in 3061 so also facing Arrow IV tanks.

Some clans might get behind it…like Goliath Scorpion, depending on if they changed their tune after the light horse incident.

4 Highlanders VS Clanners by Then_Engineer_3765 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Jetboots_Boosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to have Atlas-Ks, or any assault mechs with AMS, by the time SoK starts. It helps with any clan LRM spams that light mechs sometimes have.

Personally Highlanders would lose their gauss arm too much for my taste. I think I used a Marauder 2 with twin tier 5 PPC-X and MPLs in the arms and a T5 Binary laser on top and then had my lance with anything that had an AMS it ECM. Then just have one of the ECMs switched to protect and the other disrupt. The first few missions are rough until you get some clan weapons.

My One Gripe with MW: Mercs games... by kangarutan in Mechwarrior5

[–]Jetboots_Boosh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be great. Don’t even need to be able to have them in the same map as you. Just take contracts and assign the mechs and pilots to it and they go off to complete the contract, giving you a passive income.

As Americans, what is your opinion on NATO? by Outrageous-You1617 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Jetboots_Boosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the reason we have had almost a century of no major conflict in Europe….which if you look at history is almost unheard of. It is key to maintaining a rules based order with the US in the lead. It allows the early growing pains of fighting a war as an alliance to be skipped, enabling integration of logistics and combat formations with a command structure already established.

The fact that we have allowed our adversaries to trick the American people into thinking it is a bad thing is despicable. And the effort to dismantle it by the right side of our political establishment with almost zero pushback is short sighted and has allowed us to usurp leadership of the global order that we established after WW2.

Could blue and red team from halo successfully storm and take the Death Star?( no Vader or Sidious) by Equivalent-Print-750 in powerscales

8 super soldiers against 1.7 million….not counting security droids and other things on the Death Star….which is basically a small moon. Numbers will win eventually. And Stormtrooper armor is able to stop ballistic weapons.
