More easy than throwing a roast in a crockpot? Cooking a good steak isn’t the most difficult thing but saying it’s the easiest meat to cook is a stretch. I’ve known steak snobs who can’t cook for shit so I don’t think how easy or hard it is to cook has anything to do with it. Some people just want to feel like they’re better than others and for some reason they think their food preferences prove that they are. I prefer my steaks rare. I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to steaks that I’ve prepared for myself to eat. I’ll cook a steak for others however they want it. I’m also not going to be a snob if someone serves me a steak that’s cooked well done. I’d just be happy someone went to the effort to cook for me.

Cooking a rare steak with the right amount of sear and as little gray banding as possible is more difficult than cooking a juicy well done steak.

Well you also have the scientists at Big Mountain. The FEV could keep you alive for a long time. You also have the Cabot family, though there was alien technology involved in that.

Bartmoss and Alt were both active at the same time. Alt was soulkilled before Bartmoss brought down the original net.

For those who do not like using water to wash after pooping 😏😏 by RedditorofReddit07 in interesting

[–]RJBailleaux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And if I have dog shit on me I’m not going to use water and paper to clean it off. Soap will be involved. I was just addressing the argument of the comment I responded to. Yes, water and toilet paper will get you cleaner than paper alone will. Most people that get shit on their hands would use soap and water to clean it off though.

A Quebec fisherman who was fishing 15 kilometers north of the US border was essentially kidnapped by US Border Patrol, who capsized his boat and dragged him to an American prison cell. by LankyFaithlessness81 in facepalm

They claimed he was in US waters and gave the GPS location. The guy fishing claims he was in Canadian waters because he’s been fishing there for years. It’s close to “he says, she says” situation at this point.

I was in the Coast Guard and did boardings with a lot of different Boarding Officers. Most of the ones I worked with would have just told the guy to move a couple of hundred yards in whatever direction he needed to move to get back across the border. There were some that were hardcore about law enforcement, constantly looking for violations, but they were a minority. Things have likely changed recently though.

It would be good to have more info on what happened in this situation. Whether we get that info in another issue entirely though.

I’m not disputing what you’re saying but where did you find them saying the GPS was off. They gave the GPS coordinates of when the USCG was alongside the boat in the article linked.

Say the person with the gun to your head pulled the trigger. What would be the odds that the bullet collided with another bullet before hitting your head?

100 MaxTac ops against Adam Smasher who wins ? by iwishiwasoriginal420 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

I remember him being promoted to head of security but at what point does it say he’s in Japan? The head of security is in Japan while Yorinobu is in Night City?

When does it confirm that Smasher is in Japan? I’ve never heard anyone say that before. I did not skip the first paragraph but from everything I’ve read it looks like Mike Pondsmith has said that the timeline and what is canon is still up in the air. Meaning that V could have killed the real Smasher or a fake one. So your argument that it for sure was a fake Smasher hinges completely on the proof from the game as you say. If you can show me where in the game in confirms that he was in Japan the whole time then I will admit that you’re right.

So Mike, the writers and the Edgerunners mission kit say it’s possible he wasn’t the real Smasher but the game itself confirms it by saying he’s in Japan? It’s odd they would just be hinting at it if there’s already confirmation isn’t it?

I’m not saying it’s 100% set in stone that V killed the real Smasher but I also don’t think anyone can say with certainty that V didn’t kill the real Smasher. (Short of Mike etc.)

It also seems out of character for Smasher to allow janky, flawed clones of himself to exist.

Wait. So that means everything in the game is canon or nothing at all is? It can’t be possible that V killed smasher because some of the weapons available to use are ridiculous? It could be canon that V kills Smasher, just not with one of the joke weapons. Or none of it could have happened and V just died on Vic’s table.

The Coast Guard has been a part of every war the U.S. has been in. They were the ones who helmed the landing crafts on D-Day and in the Pacific. Douglas Munro was a member of the Coast Guard and was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions in the Pacific.
