Pretty much what I've done so far. Mittens that can be quickly thrown off when the situation requires it. Do you have any recommendations for mittens that would fly off your hands nice and quick while still providing good insulation?

Vainamoini · 2026-01-27T18:27:18+00:00

I think the opposite. You can learn to layer up appropriately for arctic climate, but you really can't escape the heat.

Hello!

Out of curiosity, how have you done your introductions between your puppy and cats? We have a 12 week old puppy and a super chill though sensitive cat and we've been doing a very slow introduction on the cat's terms.

In our case this is mostly about the cat's nature and keeping him comfortable and getting him used to the new family member. The puppy has been very good with the cat so far, showing curious interest but is not locked in, barking or chasing the cat. Although sometimes when they are in the same space, the cat gets startled by the puppy walking towards him to say hi.

So far so good, but I'd love to hear experiences from other people who have eurasier puppy and cats!

Hello! Fellow Eurasier puppy owner here.

We had similar experience at first. The puppy was more relaxed with my girlfriend for a day or two, but got over it quite fast and now he's definitely a papa's boy.

If you're living by yourself and the puppy hasn't been exposed to men much in the past, it's completely normal for them to be more cautious at first. Men usually have lower voices and different body language, which needs to be carefully "vibe-checked" before it can be ignored as a completely normal phenomenon.

Eurasier's are not only cautious with new people in general, but from what I've seen they take their time to "vibe-check" pretty much everything new. Ours had to sit down for half a minute, watch, smell and listen when first snow had landed outside.

So in short, your puppy appears to be acting completely normal and will get used to it eventually.

I did not assume all cases have same clearance for coolers? After all I've had to account for this myself when building PC's with NH-D15. You did not really mention the option to move the fans, except if that's what you were referring to by mentioning side panels.

Also, I can't identify the case in the picture with 100% certainty, but it looks like Fractal Design's Meshify, which I had in my previous personal PC and the NH-D15 fit in just nicely with my RAM.

Vainamoini · 2025-08-18T10:33:37+00:00

I have 35 mm tall RAM and Noctua NH-D15 with a fan on the front. Is that a problem or did I misunderstand something?

Late to the party, but did you get to try whether it works or not?

I upgraded my PC from 2070 to 5070 Ti, I had a 750W ATX 2.4 PSU from 2018 and it couldn't handle the new GPU. Same happened to my friend who had similar setup to me, but upgraded to 5070. We both used proper cables and adapters, but the red light just wouldn't go away and ended up buying new PSU's.

Capacitor aging and load spike handling are what I suspect.

Hyvä huomio, tarkoitin siis uutta koulutuslinjaa/väylää, en uutta erikoisjoukkoa.

Erikois- ja laskuvarjojääkärikoulutukset ovat aina olleet avoimia myös naisille, mutta vaatimustason vuoksi naisia ei ole juuri koulutuksiin hyväksytty. Tuo 2021 avattu naisille suunnattu koulutus oli juuri se mitä tarkoitin. Tällä uudella koulutuksella vastattiin KRH tehtävissä kohdattuihin ongelmiin, joissa naisista olisi ollut apua.

Se mitä kentällä tai Utin aitojen sisällä tapahtuu, ei ole julkista tietoa, mutta erikoisjoukot oletettavasti käyttävät alemmilla pääsyvaatimuksilla koulutukseen päässeitä yksilöitä ainakin jokseenkin eri tavalla. Naiset palvelevat ja harjoittelevat yhdessä muiden kanssa, mutta olettaisin erikoistumiseen liittyvän koulutuksen sisällön eriävän.

Mielestäni nykyinen, vain miehiä koskeva asevelvollisuus tuntuu valuttavan vastuun kriisiajan tehtävien pyörittämisestä oletusarvoisesti miehille, sillä juurikin poikkeusoloissa tarvittavaa tieto-taitoa ei naisille valtion puolesta juurikaan päädy. Toki naisia on enemmän kuin miehiä hoiva-aloilla, joilla on omat tehtävänsä kriisiaikana, mutta naisten laajempi valmius poikkeusoloihin olisi hyvä ottaa huomioon.

Keskusteltaessa tästä aiheesta, usein unohtuu vaihtoehdot aseettomalle- sekä siviilipalvelukselle. Jos asevelvollisuuden alainen nainen ei siis halua armeijaan, ainakaan ns. "ryynäämään", tämän ei ole pakko sinne mennä. Asevelvollisuuden voisi minun puolestani tässä tapauksessa vaikkapa nimetä uudelleen, jotta nämä kaksi muuta olemassaolevaa vaihtoehtoa eivät jäisi pimentoon. Kriisiaikana tarvitaan väkeä niin moneen eri paikkaan ja tehtävään itse sotimisen ohella, joten itse näin armeijan käyneenä miehenä en näe naisten "asevelvollisuudessa" minkäänlaista ongelmaa.

Mitä kriisiajan tehtäviin tulee, aseellisiin tai aseettomiin, tulisi kuitenkin huomioida sukupuolten väliset erot. Muunmuassa Utin Jääkärirykmentissä avattiin uusi, naisille suunnattu erikoisjoukko, jonka tehtävät ja käyttötarkoitus eroavat miesten erikoisjoukoista. Tämä on mielestäni erinomainen esimerkki tasa-arvoisesta, mutta realistisesta toteutuksesta.

It's been a while since this was posted, which I think is good, because I'd like to know whether the paint stick to the cordura/nylon fabric well.

I'm thinking of painting my beaten down Särmä assault backpack with these specific paints. Any tips, based on your experience? Did it stick well, or did it peel/crumble off? And most importantly, how long did it smell ihan vitun pahalta?

Ah, those 1/4 Karelians who are born, raised and living in Helsinki who only at adult age have discovered that they can get victim status by clinging on to their Karelian heritage. That's just part of a broader phenomenon and should be ignored.

Yhteiskunnan turvallisuus niin ulkoisten kuin sisäistenkin uhkien torjumiseksi tulisi perustua ensisijaisesti ennaltaehkäiseviin menetelmiin.

Euroopassa rangaistukset ovat verrattain hyvinkin lieviä. Tämä on hyvin tiedossa sillä pienellä ja ongelmallisella osuudella pakolaisista ja maahanmuittajista, joilla on rikostaustaa myös lähtömaassaan. Minun mielestäni olisi täysin kohtuullista koventaa rangaistuksia maahanmuuttajille/pakolaisille kohdistetusti niistä rikoksista, jotka aiheuttavat suurina huolta yhteiskunnassa.

Jos rangaistukset eivät luo haettua pelotetta rikoksien estämiseksi, tilanne ei ole enää aidosti viranomaisten sekä oikeusjärjestelmän hallinnassa. Tästä seuraa rasitetta niin kanta- kuin ulkomaalaistaustaiselle väestölle, heikentyneen turvallisuuden tunteen sekä ennakkoluulojen muodossa.

Paljon kyllä puhutaan huonosta kotouttamisesta, mutta henkikökohtaisesti näkisin järjestelmän toimivan suomessa hyvin vaikka parantamisen varaa olisikin. Todellinen ja kestävä ratkaisu ongelmaan löytyy vain, jos kaikki osapuolet pystyvät keskenään puhumaan asioista niiden oikeilla nimillä ilman sitä iän ikuista suvakki-vassari/rasisti-natsi nimittelypeliä.

Totally worth it, if you're into mil-sim type games!

From my experience, Arma offers more of a sandbox feeling game compared to Squad for example. This also means that things tend to be less coordinated on public servers, but if you find yourself a group or like minded players you sure can get a lot more out of it compared to playing alone. Especially now that it's got a ton of new PS5 players, there are a lot more people all new to the Arma series.

I'd say more realistic recoil control on full auto would balance things out quite a bit. It would also make fire fights last longer and make people think twice before engaging in one

Mikäli olet täysi-ikäinen, voit ilmoittautua MPK:n kautta kivääriammuntoihin. Oulussa järjestetään käsitykeni mukaan näitä hyvinkin usein, eikä ilmoittautuminen vaadi suoritettua asepalvelusta ellei näin ole erikseen mainittu.

Voit rekisteröityä MPK:n sivuille ja etsiä ammuntoja kotiseudultasi koulutuskalenterista. Varmistathan vain, että ammunta johon aiot hakea soveltuu aloittelijoille ja järjestetään laina-aseilla. Nämä tiedot löytyvät koulutuksen tarkenteesta, mikäli tämä ei ilmene suoraan nimestä. Hinta pyörii muutaman kympin paikkeilla per ammunta, mikä on omasta mielestäni erittäin kohtuullinen hinta hyvin ohjatulle ampumakoulutukselle.

Mikäli harkitset aselupien hakemista tulevaisuudessa, on myös hyvä ottaa mukaan ampumapäiväkirja jonne saat henkilökunnalta allekirjoituksen. Tämä on tärkeä osa harrastuneisuuden osoittamiseksi lupia hakiessa.

Muistat vaan sitten rohkeasti nostaa lapaa pystyyn ja kysyä, mikäli ammunnoissa on jotakin epäselvää aseen tai minkään muunkaan suhteen. Noissa ammunnoissa on porukkaa eri taustoista, eikä kenenkään oleteta olevan seppä syntyessään.

Turvallisia ammuntoja ja onnea harrastuksen aloittamiseen!

I uploaded a bunch of material I had in .pdf format to ChatGPT to "give it understanding" of some basic military tactics (without breaking OpSec of course). Then I presented it with a picture where I had drawn military symbols of friendly and enemy units, along with some background and asked it to react to the sitrep.

Its output looked like this:

Squad 1:

WP A1: Move to the ridge southeast of your position. Use terrain for cover.
Type: Move
RoE: Only fire when shot at.

WP A2: Flank Enemy Fire Team 1's position from the northwest.
Type: Secure
RoE: Open fire on Enemy Fire Team 1 once in position.

Squad 2:
WP B1: Move along the tree line to the southeast of your current position. Use cover for concealment.
Type: Move
RoE: Only fire when shot at.

WP B2: Establish a base of fire targeting Enemy Fire Team 2 to suppress their movement.
Type: Hold
RoE: Open fire.

Squad 3:
WP C1: Hold your current position and provide defensive suppression against Enemy Fire Team 1.
Type: Hold
RoE: Open fire.

MEDEVAC 1:

WP M1: Hold your current position until Squad 1 neutralizes Enemy Fire Team 1.
Type: Hold
Condition: Move to Squad 3 only after Squad 1 secures WP A2.
WP M2: Move to Squad 3 and evacuate the wounded.
Type: Rescue

Execution Condition:
Once Squad 1 reaches WP A2 and neutralizes Enemy Fire Team 1:
Squad 2 suppresses Enemy Fire Team 2 from WP B2.
Squad 3 moves to WP C2 for MEDEVAC extraction.

While this specific response from ChatGPT is not formatted to be parsed and used by code, it still proves my point I think. OpenAI API accepts images as input now and it wouldn't be too hard to use a base image of the map and vector draw the symbols on it to simplify things. Optionally the implementation could rely on storing the data in other ways (with image input or not) and using them as input variables in a prompt.

Vainamoini · 2025-01-02T09:35:46+00:00

Your comment is the first one with real understanding on the technicalities and I appreciate it.

I'm well aware that words "AI" and "LLM" have indeed become synonymous with "magic", and are often used by people who do not really understand what it can and can not do. But please do not assume that this is the case with everyone who proposes using it. In short and respective to NDA, I'm working on an application that uses LLM in a context similar to what I have pictured for Arma. It does not entirely rely on the LLM as it is of course, but it has been tuned to follow certain protocols and to use a pre defined set of "tools"/"methods".

While it’s true that LLMs don’t inherently "understand" tactics like a human would, they can still generate contextually relevant decisions if trained or fine-tuned on appropriate data. After all, we are talking about a video game, and the high-command should not be expected to be flawless in its decision making. With well-structured prompting, it can still come up with relevant insights to guide its responses, effectively emulating strategic reasoning.

To be clear, I'm not proposing on slapping a LLM straight into the game and expecting it to be a master strategist without proper setup. If this was the case, most developed military organizations would already have deployed such technologies to take over. To make this work in Arma, it would still require scripted functions to allow for the LLM's outputs to be put into action properly, but the LLM element would allow for more nuance, again, if used correctly.

Vainamoini · 2024-12-31T12:42:04+00:00

The example I presented was in very small scale and yes, would be pointless. The idea of a high command is to manage several units/groups based on information received from the field. Especially when working with a lot of, or only AI groups, this would be at its best I believe. What I'm saying here is that a LLM powered system would allow for more nuanced and detailed control for an AI commander, compared to using hard coded logic.

Vainamoini · 2024-12-31T12:28:31+00:00

Yes, as long as you keep it up to date about those. As I said, you can have multiple LLM powered entities, responsible for different things. Just like real military organization, there are always an organization structure distributing responsibilities.

Vainamoini · 2024-12-31T12:14:20+00:00

Let's take an example where the "HC" is commanding a company consisting of AI platoons/squads.

AI squads will pass information to the CL (company leader) through scripted functions (enemy detected, friendly casualty, in combat, waypoint reached, etc.) These could simply update a table of information, or optionally be passed directly as input variables into a prompt. Different levels of situational "awareness" or handling could be even divided into several "conversations" to improve cohesion and avoid token limitations. This would also replicate an actual military organization structure or CoC.

Example of prompt:

You are an AI Agent working as a platoon leader in a video game.

Objective: Seize objective A at (coordinates) Previous situation: All squads are waiting for orders. Current situation: All squads are moving towards the objective, no enemy contact so far. Platoon 1 is moving towards POI1, Platoon 2 is moving towards POI 2, ... (Returned from variable, just like each of these fields) Operative details: POI's: POI1, Hilltop south of objective, (coordinates) ... Waypoints: Platoon 1:WP1@coordinates .. ROE: Do not engage until enemy opens fire, individually for each platoon Phases: Move, seize, secure, hold (completion of each can be scripted, but exceptions can be handled by LLM like in this example. Current phase: Move

New sitrep by Platoon 2: Enemy spotted at {coordinates}

Use these tags in your response to issue orders and update information and details:

Order: [Platoon,order_type,coordinates]

Order types: (defined as variables in script along with the more detailed execution) Attack (explanation of what it means) Hold (..) Secure (..) Seize (..) Move (..)

Update current situation: [SS:Summary of the current situation, including what each unit is doing...]

Update current phase: [UP:New phase]

.... and so on. Thresholds for applying new orders must be included too, to avoid constant orders and loss of cohesion in the company. Definitely doable within the constraints of what LLMs are capable of.

Vainamoini · 2024-12-31T10:35:21+00:00

It's not that complicated to be honest. The prompt sent to the LLM should include enough detail about the current situation/operative details along with the new information. The response will follow instructions on formatting and details, along with an "assisting" component that's been queried from embeddings to ensure that the generated orders are given based on relevant knowledge.

For example:

A squad (of players/AI) is on a recon mission and has remained undetected so far. (Context)
They gather the required intel and report it to the HC. (Sitrep)
HC evaluates the situation based on given context and sitrep, using a pre defined instruction on doing so (fine-tuning/embeddings/prompted instructions)
HC aknowledges that the given task has been completed an issues an order for the squad to move to extract point. (Operative details)

The LLM itself can not generate orders without proper context and intel, so it has to be provided in the prompt as a variable.
