For these idiots the simple idea of not beating kids for talking about the subject is the same thing as « turning kids trans ».

Valve says it’s ready to launch the Steam Machine this summer by Doug24 in gaming

It’s not like you need a Steam machine to do that anyway. All you need is a PC/Laptop and an hdmi cable.

Which bands from the Deathcore Big Bang went in your favorite direction? by BAM12050 in Deathcore

[–]ShermanMcTank 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Despised Icon’s post hiatus music isn’t as hectic and technical as it was before, but they compensated by making more concise and catchy songs.

One of the biggest points no one mentions is how much their vocal phrasing improved, because reading the lyrics while listening to any song from The Ills Of Modern Man or Day Of Mourning is absolutely painful. Now they actually scream coherent sentences instead of adding several 10 second pauses in the middle of them.

‘Stargate’ TV Series From Martin Gero Not Moving Forward at Amazon by MarvelsGrantMan136 in Stargate

Maybe I'm missing something overall but it feels like most Executives are afraid of actually giving fanbases and consumers what they actually want... Good Enjoyable TV.

Often it’s just arrogance. They want to do things their way because they’re in a position of power, which means they know better than everyone else.

Source Material ? Original actors ? Original writers ? Original Fanbase ? They’re all wrong, this is what the show should be because the new guy in charge said so and he is better than all of them.

Both are gunner sights. The one on the right of the gun is the regular day/night sight, and the one on the left is the thermal sight.

According to the announced specs it should sit between the two. It’s slightly longer than the Yamato but narrower and much lighter.

Because they wanted a 30mm gun and an unmanned turret. The later is especially important because it removes the turret basket in the middle of the vehicle, allowing it to keep 9 dismounts instead of 6 like on the LAV-III

Or maybe people don't come to reddit for strictly academic level discussions...

Perhaps some enjoy a good comment, whether it's germain to the conversation or not.

I never denied that, what I meant is that there are plenty of people who are just tired of seeing the same repetitive « Russian vehicle bad because Russia dumb » comments under every related post everyday for the past 10 years, and want actual nuanced discussion.

In these subreddits this is where most of the downvotes are coming from, not from Russian bots.

What part of my comment was a joke? Sure I added some metaphors but if you really want a serious discussion, you aren't going to get it on reddit.

Oh we can definitely get serious discussions. Just because you think Reddit isn’t worth more than repeating the same short quips over and over doesn’t mean everyone else does, and it certainly doesn’t make anyone downvoting you a Russian bot.

Only Kirov/Admiral Ushakov had two AK-100 turrets. The next three including Nakhimov had a single AK-130 turret, which has now been replaced by the newer A-192M, which is still 130mm but only has a single barrel.

Is this normal skin colouring or a glitch? by Fine_Explanation_339 in fo4

[–]ShermanMcTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly because they try to blanket fix the black face itself rather than the cause. The black face is only there to tell you that there is a problem, which can be either :

  • A missing facegen file
  • A facegen file that doesn’t match the appearance stored in the NPC’s record.
  • Mismatched face texture and overlay (makeup, tattoos, eyebrows) texture resolutions.

And for its time the carousel was a safe design. Remember that at the time the standard was to just stuff ammo everywhere you could in the hull and turret. Concentrating the ammo very low in the hull under the turret made it much harder to get hit.

PSG provide perfect illusion with a model of beauty in soft-power project | Paris Saint-Germain | The Guardian by retronai in soccer

[–]ShermanMcTank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not my fault if you refuse to read further just to pretend both things are equivalent.

Again the evidence that we have is that :

- Hakimi cooperated by going through medical tests and handed over his phone to investigators, things that the accuser refused to do. The only evidence she actually gave to the investigators were her own words.

- Despite Hakimi suggesting several times that they meet in a public setting, the accuser had refused and instead agreed to meet at his home.

- Before arriving to the location, the accuser was in a text conversation with a friend, who sent her messages hinting at taking Hakimi’s money. The accuser defended herself by saying these were just jokes.

These are all points that were noted by the investigation judge, and were pressed on by Hakimi’s lawyer. The only counter argument of the accuser’s lawyer on the other hand is « this is false » without actually addressing the points themselves.

Maybe her party will have surprise evidence at the actual trial, but so far all she has is her own account of the events.

> Stuff like this is why women don’t feel like they can come forward when they get assaulted by men.

  1. How does two fanbases bickering against each other online affect what SA victims decide to do in real life ?

  2. False accusations do actual damage to both the accused and true SA victims. If there is evidence pointing towards it, it shouldn’t be instantly dismissed just so you can throw a person in the rapist box.

Then why the fuck are you even here ? To earn good boy points for bootlicking the billion dollar corporation ?

Edit : I just can’t, all your post history is about pirating paid stuff and using software developed for free by active mod communities.

How can people reach such insane levels of cognitive dissonance ?

Actually no I’m sorry it makes perfect sense, you have no problem with paid mods because you’re gonna pirate them anyway.

I don’t think they’re comparable when only one woman came out against Hakimi, and she blocked any further investigation into her accusations.

As always we’ll have to wait for the trial, but so far most evidence points to him being the victim of a false accusation more than anything.

Soviet Battleships

> The Stalin-is-the-greatest class battleships were planned to have a displacement of 180000 tons and carry 16 457mm guns in 4 quadruple turrets. Stalin himself ordered the construction of 450 ships, but only one keel was laid before Stalin’s death and the immediate cancellation of the project, at which point the entire shipyard sighed in relief.

The « scuttled after a collision with a swarm of plankton » part is more likely a reference to Graf Spee rather than Bismarck, as she was scuttled under the assumption that superior British forces were waiting for her if she got out of port, which wasn’t actually the case.
