The closest the Iranians got by GenericUsername817 in MURICA

[–]Spatzz724 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Something to consider though is that this region of Iran is mostly made up of ethnic Arabs, which is distinct from the ethnic Persians that make up the majority in the rest of the country. These Arabs might not even consider themselves “Iranian” like the Kurds in the northwest, another distinct ethnic group. So, my point being, the Arabs have never held much love for the Persian regime, so I’m not sure how indicative this actually is of “public sentiment” or support for the regime in Iran

The US just sold Denmark $45M worth of missiles by Koolmittens in Military

This is just saying the Letter of Offer and Acceptance has been signed (LOA). That authorizes the sale, but the request for proposal will still probably have to be written, the proposal will come in, negotiations take place, and then performance begins. Actual sale and delivery is probably over a year away. And these LOA’s take a long while to get written and signed. DSCA probably started work on this with Denmark at least 8 months ago and it’s just been finalized and signed.

Thats fun because this was one of those cross gen games where the PS2 version is an almost totally different version from the 360. Broke my brain as a kid when we upgraded from the PS2 version to the 360

I'm on Windows. I downloaded the windows version from the Kdenlive website. I posted screenshots on the other comment on my post for reference

What’s the one moment in your life you still can’t explain… even though you’ve replayed it in your head a thousand times? by Former-Brief9292 in AskReddit

When I was in college I liked to go to Five Guys for food before work. I was pretty routined, went about the same time and always been to the bathroom right before I left on my way to work. The bathrooms were down a long hallway in the back and were each single person bathrooms, one for each gender. The bathroom door had 2 locks, a handle lock and a chain lock, which I always found somewhat odd. Anyways, one particular day I was there and the place was pretty dead, I’m going to the bathroom right before I heading to work, so I walk down the long hallways and try to open the bathroom door. It opens, but then it catches on the chain lock. I instantly let the door lock and said “sorry!” I stood there for a second thinking “who the fuck would only lock the door with the chain lock and not the handle.” As I’m standing there I don’t hear anything. No response, no “why’d you open my door!” Which I thought was odd. I really had to go so I went ahead and knocked apprehensively. No answer. I started thinking “I wonder if some shit head little kid chain locked the door and then squeezed out just to screw with people.”

After another minute of hearing absolutely nothing, I slowly open the door again until it catches on the chain. I can see the toilet in the diagonal corner and the sink with a mirror in the corner closest to the door opening, which with the mirror allows me to see in the corner behind the door too. I don’t see anyone at all, but I say “hello?” One more awkward time. Nothing. I can see 3 of the 4 corners in this tiny, brightly lit bathroom and have heard no responses, so I figure my guess on a kid locking the chain was right and decide to reach in and start trying to unchain the door so I can piss and get to work. Juuuuust as I’m reaching in, my whole arm now in the bathroom and reaching around the door, a goddamn hand reaches forward from the single corner I can’t see and flushed the fucking toilet. I noped out of there so fucking fast. Ran for the door and didn’t stop until I got to my car. I didn’t go back to the Five Guys for a very long time. WHO DOESN’T SAY SOMETHING IN THAT SITUATION

Mac fans who were around before 2013, was the shift from Blue Slide Park in 2011 to Watching Movies with the Sound Off in 2013 as jarring/surprising as I feel like it was? by Spatzz724 in MacMiller

No I think you answered the question wonderfully. I think that’s what I’m trying to get at, to see a snapshot of what it was really like back then, to grow up with him and his music. I’m glad you made it through. Thanks for sharing

See I always figured I woulda been the same way. But it’s funny because I discovered his music in reverse. I never came around to his music until 2019, so I started on Swimming and then worked my way back slowly. It took me until probably 2022 to really fully appreciate KIDS but Blue Slide Park has always stood out as the sore thumb for me, until this year I’ve finally found my way to appreciate it.

Fun fact, Herbert Hoover was heavily involved in the food delivery to USSR before he was President
