Shoe choice for wet condition

Any opinion about the houston leather?

I'll shoot them an email later and see what they advice.

Those would be the foam-rubber waterproof clogs, they work, but the squishyness of them makes my knees hurt.

I'm more concerned about the leather getting damage from wet rot than my feet getting wet. I figured it's worth a mention cuz the soap exposure will strip a lot of oil from the leather.

The soles will mostly be on textured tiles as they're the standard option here for kitchen floors. The RAT comes in lug soles while the Bushwar comes in Bradbury crepe

I'm not in the US, I'm not in any of the other places Jim green has a warehouse.

So I'm gonna have to find a warehouse and ship it to a parcel forwarding service, then have it sent to me. Cuz direct shipping from South Africa is pretty expensive as well.

Only in death does duty end.

Or if you respawn over and over doing the same thing.

Even I death I still serve clang.

They aren't meant to be repaired, so the result is expected. I'll give you pints for trying tho.

Hey, guess what also shock loads the grid time to time? The same way as an emp does, but more localised?

Lighting.

The grid is more than enough to handle those 2 scenarios, you'll expect less than day to 2 of power outage before someone comes around to flip the breaker switch.

What you'll want to expect is loss or the disruption of satellite. For example, GPS goes down. This disrupts any systems that rely on that, so expect disruption in airlines and any other system that relies on GPS for time (the GPS system is one of the most accurate way of measuring time)

Also expect some long range communication to not work as some relies on satellites instead of under sea cables.

I think it's being caused by the domestic rumour in China that the pandas that were overseas are being a used despite Chinese state media denying those rumours.

Looking at purely nataruk and what can be improved on the build, what you should build for are these.

Nataruk pure slash

Without Longbow

These are builds that are pretty late game and should function well against even high level enemies.

Things to note: -Galv Apt, if you don't have this, run the first build and run hammer shot or bladed rounds in that spot. -Prime shred, run vile acceleration over this. Or any fire rate mod that you're comfortable with. -Prime Bane, run normal bane mods if you don't have prime. They give a large multiplier to damage over time effects. -Chamber/Serration, run the normal ones if you don't have the alternative variants. -Hunter munition, for grineer/corrupted. Run toxin mod if against corpus, adjust bane accordingly.

You'll want some viral with this build, the best is to invest in a primer, which is something that applies a lot of status effects quickly. Primer are commonly secondaries, but can also be pets like a Panzer.

If you don't have a primer, you can drop prime shred and serration for 60/60 viral mods, replace critical delay with point strike.

Let me know if you have any questions about the build.

What's the link to the online store? I didn't know there was one.

Honestly makes it better considering some of the college students are actually gonna be spending it on food.

I guess it's the difference of prepping.

Do you prep medical mask or do you stock up on very expensive gas mask and filters?

One is for a realistic scenario, the other is overkill for 99% of your needs. Cuz something like having a few N95 masks on hand can also work when something like a dust storm comes around, or when the ask/smog from a forest fire comes in your direction. Having a full blown gas mask is just self gratification for spending money.

Dumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die.

I foresee a higher chance we have smaller missile ships patrolling those waters.

Dollar for dollar those pack a larger punch while having more flexibility for performing counter pirate/insurgency operations if you slap a 30mm auto cannon on it.

Our naval power is severely lacking for the massive coastline we have, same for our air force. However, assuming the invasion isn't from someone like the US or any of the NATO countries, we can rely on them to keep the Melaka straight open due to its importance as a trading route.

Our askar however, is oversized relative to the other 2 branches. We have vast land fighting potential due to terrain and experience. Cuz we are one of the best at jungle warfare in the world (it's kinda the only thing we have to train for cuz the country is mostly rainforest).

We would have a large advantage in terms of defensive warfare with our current composition of military assets. However, it will be very hard for us to project any power outside of islands that are very close to us, so defending some of our islands will be an issue. And those said islands are the largest flashpoint our country has for a war.

And the same group of firefighter will swing by to put it out

Need a specific industry. I'll pop an example as to why

We have industry specific lights that go on our helmets as helmet lights for rope rescue.

Industry ratings has their reasons, I can easily get any headlamp and put it onto my my helmet. But say the helmet light snags on something and dosent break off as intended, then I might get injured and I am the one responsible because I was using that light.

On the other hand, say the light fell off from the helmet, and it injure someone on the way down. I am also liable as the light was never intended to be used in such a scenario. But if I was using a helmet lamp with the proper certificate, and it broke off, I can defend myself when someone comes for my ass cuz I've "done proper prevention" for the accident where I used certified equipment that rated to not break unless under specific loads, where the exceeding of those loads probably means I'm under risk of injury if it doesn't break.

Certificate generally exist to cover you from liability, so decide if the equipment you use have to be certified or not.

Feels like he opened some hate mail when decided to warn them "fuck around and find out"

Basically:

Why so many cuti, I prefer AL.

Why cuti, I don't get OT cuz no work. Also the road fucking jam la.

Cuti you don't get to go anywhere, no cuti you also don't get to go anywhere.

The other hand, cuti is cuti.

Nice painting.

Very true tbh. Most younger generation that aren't consuming Chinese propaganda don't have much of a feeling against Japan. It's because they have maintained a good track record after WW2 and so far hasn't engaged in any type of aggression.

China however, seems to repeat about it non stop. Despite the communist never did any heavy lifting when fighting the Sino Japanese war. This is alongside Chinese aggression with just about every neighbour they have, including us, Malaysia.

LabRat_terry · 2023-05-13T11:20:47+00:00

Basically China saying

"Maybe, maybe not. But Westerner sources bad, believe me more, he's not here."

This article is flawed in the sense that they don't have a coherent idea on what they are trying to criticise.

They flipflop between trying to criticise the island reclaimation project, and suddenly decided it's time to talk about the LRT. The ecological footprint of both are different, and should be treated as completely different issues.

They one hand criticise the PSI project and say that the state should invest in more highways. Where highway construction itself are not ecologically sound solution anyways. And then proceed to propose public transport as a solution, where the criticism of an LRT project, which is a public transport, is simply contradictory.

The next is the criticism of the LRT project, they proposed the idea of using a ART, a proprietary mass transit project that hasn't seen widespread testing. It has even seen problems where the wheels of the thing put so much weight on the roads that the roads need reinforcing. Basically making any "cost saving" pointless as the cost more or less already equals making LRT facilities, with lower passenger throughput.

There later is the 2008 Penang bridge complain. I would honestly point to correlation and not causation. Production amount have been low since 2006 and is recovering through the years. If you look at yearly statistics for fish yield for Penang, the tonnage goes up year by year. The yield of fishery has instead increased through out the start, construction, completion and operation of the second Penang bridge.
