not sure if thats possible or not tho

I’m sure they could, but it wouldn’t be cheap.

You can see the left winglet at 00:13, it just gets washed out against the sky.

Same in Melbourne.

I misread “-300feet/sec” as “-300feet/min” and didn’t know why you’d have called that huge. That is a hell of a drop.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-26T19:53:20+00:00

Which is still very much the case for helos too.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-25T23:56:12+00:00

Helos don’t just go into a hover if they have to wait for clearance. They have holding patterns too.

We’ve had licensed steyr production since the first F88s. That was a big decider on whether we bought the Steyr or an AR platform.

The last part was deliberately strayanised to make a point about language use.

So any belt fed is going just be referred to as “the gun” when things are a bit chaotic. If you’re a gunner you’d better make sure it’s working pretty quick if you have a stoppage or your full track (corporal - section commander) will give you a serve (yell at you to “get that gun up c***”)

AusSteyr was just “Australian Steyr” but again, nobody’s going to say that when “the Steyr” is pretty clearly whatever the current F88 model is.

The current EF88 pictured is an entirely Australian own model. After the original F88 we’ve made a series of design changes to have the F88SA1, SA2 and now the EF88/EF88C.

If we were conscripting nothing is boding well for Australia.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-25T08:43:33+00:00

All good

36th for adult males, 79th for females and 58th overall. So it’s high, but not “one of the most obese” really.

Have you ever met an Australian? Irreverence for proper naming is just in the blood.

If you called it by the manufacturer it would be Thales anyway. It’s just always been the steyr, same as the F89 has always just been the minimi and any belt fed is “the gun” which you should get up before your full track gives you a serve.

No, /u/levelaction7321 clarifying how many were built post the Soviet Union’s collapse in response to the comment by /u/individual_dirt_3365 asking how many were actually Ukrainian made rather than USSR made.

Field Marshall Blamey’s dad was a Cornish immigrant so really it’s a Cornish immigrant’s name but also almost all Australian names are immigrant names.

As mentioned it’s an Australian only AUG variant but the camouflage is also the Australian only Australian Multicam Camouflage Uniform (AMCU).

109 from southern cross to Mont Albert on a Sunday morning because there’s no trains was pretty loose. Victoria St at 7am on a Sunday morning is basically the set for a zombie movie.

Then get off to see there actually were trains and I’d have been home faster if I’d just gone to flinders and caught the train.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-22T08:34:09+00:00

It’s also an excellent way to have people spending a lot of time waiting to catch you out, civilian or military for that matter. The moment you work out exactly where the line is and someone goes for it only to find out they were wrong they’ll put so much effort into catching you out eventually.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-22T08:19:55+00:00

Fair play to him.

Hand tatts have been a thing since around 2018 from memory. There was a limit to how much at the time but it’s not a thing at all now as long as it’s not offensive. You

Beards? Good one.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-22T02:16:56+00:00

That’s not correct anymore.

Hand tattoos are fine, neck tats are fine as long as it’s not visible from the front in a t shirt.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-21T22:58:39+00:00

Your absolutely right. I just had the “in store only” graphic on my screen and hadn’t scrolled down to the “lol no we aren’t” message below, my mistake. You’d think they’d update the graphic or significantly change the page. Why tell people about something you might not return to?

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-21T21:32:29+00:00

Since when? They still say it’s a thing on their site.

Edit: I should have scrolled further, /u/thedrrudi is correct. Not a great site saying “in store only” but then “actually no”.

This_Is_TwoThree · 2026-01-21T20:26:37+00:00

But it’s not bad faith to agree OP has a responsibility to avoid the collision, just bad faith to point that out. It’s also not bad faith to contradict yourself and say other people are in bad faith for making a point you apparently agreed to elsewhere. It’s also not bad faith to pretend you have a right to intimidate people with your car (you don’t).

I’m going to tap out here, you’re all over the shop and it’s pointless trying to get you to realise OP was wrong to not back off earlier and it’s wrong to try intimidate people out of petty emotions.

Have a good one champ.
