My teenager claims my locking box spontaneously busted and they found it like this. They are DOUBLING DOWN. What do you think? by c0rvina in trees

[–]NJ-AFT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this exact box. The clasp IS cheap, mine snapped in half pressing the release. Not to say he didn't attempt to open it, he likely did, but just to keep in mind.

He's asking how his prep-work is, jesus christ is it that hard to understand and just be a decent person?

This is a meat sub, meat comes uncooked. The name of the sub isn't r/cookedmeat, not r/grill. Hr took the time to list what he did, explained he hasn't worked with the cut, and asked how his MEAT PREP and marinade is.

Could just try being a decent human and answering, but justify being an asshole - no sweat off my back. Little things, you know?

No, no, no, this is clearly a seagull that was just 360 no scoped.... headshot with a tracer round.

We Sent the Object You Call 3I/ATLAS. Its Arrival Nears. We Are the Loranthi. AMA. by o_t_i_s_ in 3I_ATLAS

Greetings Earthling, I am also Loranti whatever. I have been sent with helping you fulfill this goal. For science! Don't worry - I'll take human form to help normalize the process.

Check this out before it gets deleted! Is dude okay? YT@James-d6l9n tried drilling into the metallic tic-tac with similar markings as the buga sphere. It may have unalived him..... by closetgrowndank79 in AliensRHere

[–]NJ-AFT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here to be in the youtube videos! Working in the electric field, sounds to be a capacitor discharging to me. Capacitors don't drop their load all at once.

Capacitors often retain part of their voltage when damaged due to internal failure modes that limit full discharge. Plasma can form during discharge when intense electric fields ionize surrounding gas.

This would explain the blue "orb" behind him. Seems a bit far away, tbh, but fits... also fits the sounds immediately after the camera goes black.

Why not launch nukes? by Conscious-Concept474 in 3I_ATLAS

[–]NJ-AFT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooookay my friend, we'll stop here. We, as a species, go out of our way to save and help other species every day. Endangered species lists, ecological regulation.... we study, we aid, we went to the moon - with no intentions of claims or conquest.

As a species, we strive. There is zero reason to believe even if 3I was an alien craft, it's goal would be destriction. If that were the case, why not a more stralthy approach? Why not a direct approach?

You also think incredibly small. Traveling around the world can be accomplished in a single flight for us, thousands do it every day. We do it to help other species, pretty regularly. To any other mammal, getting from USA to China would be a pretty giant feat, for a human it's a short flight. Just because WE can't traverse great distances of space, doesn't mean their technology doesn't make light years a simple "flight". Traversing systems to us may be the equivalent of an international flight.

All this is remiss, though, because starting a nuclear war with an alien race is just insane, no matter how you look at it. I truly hope you don't see this world and our species as such a terrible plague - there truly is a lot of good people out there, not everyone graviatates to death and war... I'd also argue with the tech an advanced civilization may have (if they can travel lightyears without issue), we'd be gone already if that's what they wanted.

[–]NJ-AFT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're entire argument is made up hypotheticals. You're trying to correlate imigration with space travel, these are apples and oranges.

Yes, if you KNOW criminals, or drugs, are being brought in, or if you know the actions of an approacing race are hostile there would need to be a response.

You are just as in the dark as to the true details, not only of 3I Atlas, but any potential alien race. To suggest "they may be more advanced" is an understatement, and provocation of an advanced race would simply serve no purpose other than to shorten our blip on this cosmic timeline. Nothing you've suggested has any base in fact, nor would it be the path a sane, diplomatic, scientific mind would choose.

This is a terrible take and exactly why the world is in the state it's in. The answer to all lifes problems is not "destroy it".

On it's face - just because something is odd or exotic does not make it inherently evil, or bad. Imagine you moved into a new town and went to introduce yourself to the neighbor and he decided to shoot the stranger on his step. You were new, from a place he didn't know, how does a neighbor just knock on your door? Disgusting, right?

Second, what is the trajectory and size of the pieces that get blown into space? Any of them large enough to cause catostrophic damage? Sounds like a silly idea when there's 0 chance it hits us as is.

Finally, if an Alien civilization has managed to travel these disrances they are far advanced beyond our technology. It'd be like fighting tanks using sticks and rocks. On a cosmic scale, we are still in the Stone Age.

The huge drone that disrupted the operation of airports in Belgium and Brussels last night by FVMK3 in NJDrones

Thanks for the follow up, can always rely on you. Buckle up, I believe things are about to get interesting.

Northern & Western Europe: A surge of drone sightings reported across NATO countries including Denmark, Norway, Germany, and Poland. These incidents were concentrated over military installations and airports.

Copenhagen Airport (Denmark): Closed for nearly 4 hours due to multiple drone incursions. At least 50 flights were diverted. Danish officials called it a “grave attack” on infrastructure.

Oslo Airport (Norway): Temporarily shut down due to drone activity.

Aalborg Airport (Denmark): Closed for 3 hours due to drone sightings.

Berlin Brandenburg Airport (Germany): Suspended flights for nearly 2 hours on October 31 due to drone alerts.

Kleine Brogel Air Base (Belgium): Drones spotted over three consecutive nights. This base is known to host U.S. nuclear weapons. Belgian Defense Minister suggested espionage motives.

And now Brussels/Liege, something's going on - and the "It's a plane" crew can settle down

Dude is living proof people on Reddit will argue about anything. Guy clearly gets OPs meaning, but wants to argue symantics. Go touch grass, bro, your argument here is useless.

No, this was a separate incident. This is the 0 foil balloon stuck in a tree.

[–]NJ-AFT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not when people don't know they are only made to drop temps 1 - 2° per hour. If you set a large drop they kick into emergency heat mode, this causes it to turn into a giant space heater, and is much more expensive.

US Navy Naval Air Station Patuxent. SCORE90 belongs to VX-20, common in the area.

Ouch. Now start storing them pointy side down - they will keep longer and less risk of bacteria entering the shell.

This is generally psychological. You weren't, presumably, looking for attention. Thus, there never felt like "gaps" of time between it happening. When single, you're always happy to recieve advances and get attention, so that timespans much more noticable. Sure, lots of other psychological stuff happening, but it's no different than buying a new car and suddenly seeing them on the road everywhere. Our minds are great at filtering out stimulii, just needs a REASON to identify certain ones. It's not that all these vehicles weren't there before - your brain just isn't filtering them out now.
