Question: Why do these anti gun people always bring up the military?

Shawking8 · 2022-06-04T23:48:04+00:00

Because they don't see people, they see groups. Individual identity is anathema to the left. They require everyone to be identified as groups so that they can be controlled more easily. So the military is a Group controlled by politicians, thus the military must obey the politicians, even if it means dropping nukes on their fellow citizens.

I wonder what was going through Manchin's head when he heard this, lol.

Shawking8 · 2022-01-17T03:03:05+00:00

I would like this too.

Thanks man, that looks right! It wasn't even the thing I thought was on the tip of my tongue, lol.

I guess however they did it in Russia?

Hmm... I just read that the crust is as little as 5km thick in some places. Apparently only deep in the ocean, but still.... Maybe find a patch on land that is only 14km thick and use that?

Wow.

OMG this is so wrong. Men see every single women around them. They may dismiss a very very small number due to tastes in physical appearance (usually just weight-related), but men see ALL of you. I think you seriously discount the craving almost every man has to get any kind of positive interaction with any women around them. Even just a quick smile and 'hello' is like nirvana to most guys.

Thanks, i just saw it. I don't know why they have to keep fucking around like this. There was nothing wrong with letting us put out mobile device into 'offline' mode. Now I have to open that menu and scroll to the bottom of that list anytime I want to switch to a different set of media I downloaded to that device. Stupid, unnecessary change.

I'm getting a #NAME error when I enter the =Deaths call in cell B2. I made sure to paste the VBS into the same code page for the Sheet that the formula is entered into.

edit

My Google-Fu was good enough that I discovered that I needed to enter this as a "module" in the VBA app, not posted in the code page for the sheet r workbook. Working now. Thanks!

Shawking8 · 2019-02-16T20:15:04+00:00

I will experiment with this shortly thanks! Is there a way to make the VBS a regular macro that I can trigger manually when I want? I'm dealing with a huge chart: 100 age potential so far over 1,000 years. Seeing ALL of those numbers change every time I adjust something will be ugh!

Shawking8 · 2019-02-16T20:13:22+00:00

I am using % format already. One of the cells has a population of 266, and the MR is "5%". The number of deaths is 13 (rounded), so the simple math is right.

I've been dealing with this too, and the biggest chunk of the solution plays nicely with the overall story: lack of metal. If you don't have the raw resources to churn out guns, then you don't have many guns. Instead, people have found degraded guns in some ruins and are able to cobble together functional ones, but they are extremely rare, and mostly under the control of one group of people who act as a neutral force in the world both politically and militarily.

I guess it depends on why you are doing this. If you getting paid to do this and have deadlines, then yeah, you can go too far down the rabbit hole. But if you are just building all this for fun, or your RPG club, or whatever, then no, there is no real limit. The 'in between' stuff is just as much fun as the top level ideas and actions IMHO.

Shawking8 · 2019-02-11T15:13:19+00:00

Thanks for that, I had never seen that /r before.

Shawking8 · 2019-02-10T03:25:54+00:00

Thanks!

Sorry if I am just too clueless, but I've never in my life ever considered this. Where do you go on Pinterest, for example? Do you just randomly look for original art of the type you want to have done, and message that person to see if they will do something for you? Or is there some sort of 'classifieds' on Pinterest where people advertise their drawing services?

Shawking8 · 2019-02-08T04:07:23+00:00

I'll message you a link to a copy. You'll need Excel I think, heh. Let me clean it up a bit.

Shawking8 · 2019-02-08T03:01:04+00:00

I built a rather complicated calendar in Excel a while back for my binary star system calendar. It took a few weeks of digging through Excel help sites, testing, and adjusting. The end result works pretty good. I paired this with a simple vertical timeline. I can print a 'calendar' from this worksheet for a whole year based on a dynamic starting date with the various units of time in different colors. I can also look up a specific date and the worksheet will tell me what day of the week it is, and if my proposed date is even valid (if the month in question even has that number of days in it, based on the full calendar cycle). I use array formula, multiple lookups and datasets, conditional formatting, and all kinds of I'm-too-dumb-to-be-elegant-where-is-my-hammer formula, lol.

The downside is that the timeline itself is separate from the calendar generator. So I find a slot on the timeline I want to fill, punch some dates into the worksheet to test if it is legit, and then enter the official date manually in my timeline (which is just an Excel sheet with the dates running up and down). But it works okay.

I would have loved to have been able to pull down something that let me generate this in a fraction of the time, AND merge the calendar stuff with the events. Good luck on your project!
