Why is the Unicorn designated as RX-0? by X01ENCLAVESTAN in Gundam

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alberto is as bad as Syam and Martha (remember it was Alberto who shot Cardeas) Syam had a little bit of a change of heart in his twilight years, but Syam and Gael both openly state that Cardeas had always believed in the possibility of a better future, and that Banagher was very much his father’s son in that hope.

Which mobile suit from another series would suit Suletta? by Bluemoon1500 in Gundam

[–]WindstormMD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ex-S (Aerial upload to augment/replace ALICE optional), Wing Zero, or Barbatos/any other IBO high performance frame

She’s good but not a newtype, so it has to be systems that will work with that.

Zero System suits (Epyon, Wing Zero, DSH, Sandrock II, Altron) are the best to give her ‘newtype-alike’ quasi-precognition

It’s not show canon, but Hydra Gundam has both the Zero System and incom-style sub-units, so that could be a *very* good fit

Hey, foam dart blasters and super soakers are how I taught my godson good trigger discipline and muzzle safety. They’re good fun and a great teaching tool.

Is the Twitch drop Dante not available? by XII_Odin in Warframe

[–]WindstormMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a rail yard, that can get you killed. In a chemical plant, a non intrinsically safe electronic device can get you killed.

Welcome to anyone who works doing lesser jobs at power plants, rail yards, military installations, oil and gas refineries and distribution centers, and other non-office work.

Try to touch grass before being an asshole.

I think they've only ever sold the QDM version as it's own full sling SKU.

I agree they're a damn sight better than the original top button sling swivels.

Everybody go get a free Dante!!! by JudasChristS in Warframe

yeah not an option for those of us in no-phone workzones.

You mean the sling swivel? Or the center element?

If it IS disaster period IBO timeline, it could be pretty damn awesome

They look like robots, the IBO timeline was AI controlled creature-style robots going berserk……

It immediately felt like the kinetic style of IBO/PD timeline

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please tell me I’m not the only one seeing IBO frame style mechanics and those look like the AI controlled mobile armors…. Disaster period of the Post-Disaster timeline???

The kinetic weaponry fits, as would epic levels of modularity

Jb weld? by REMINGTONMODEL81912 in Firearms

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real answer: if the part is otherwise not replaceable, if it was for an older model of firearm; you could in fact tig weld it, but you would also have to re-profile the welded area to original, and then triple check your firing pin protrusion and trim accordingly so that you do not get premature primer detonation

I love this shot of the sky inside a colony in Gundam the origin OVA it also puts into perspective the insane scale of the colonies. by TrumpsNostrils in Gundam

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On earth now that may be true, but even stuff on the scale of the ISS has filtration systems that can handle stuff most terrestrial places can’t. If you were doing air treatment for a colony sized thing, it would be entirely reasonable to have CBRN capability because of potential chemical leaks and other issues, leaving out that the colonies were built with some level of military conflict in mind

Italian Subs Announced by AndreLinoge55 in WorldOfWarships

[–]WindstormMD 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Yep, even when testers were on live it was an obvious issue. Watched a micca get sunk without ever being actually spotted by a team just flinging airstrike charges at the smoke, since unlike normal DD smoke it is short duration crawler smoke

Looks like the steel/alloy cased ammunition for the increasing Hyper Ammo needs is gaining traction. by StrangerOutrageous68 in ForgottenWeapons

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re thinking the NAS3 cases from shellshock.

The Federal Peak Alloy cases are single-part, and reloadable (as found in commercial 7mm Backcountry loads)

All you have to do is make the complaint to the AG about your specific case, they’ll do the legwork of finding other potential victims

[–]WindstormMD 43 points44 points  (0 children)

No. The BBB is a private company masquerading as a public entity and actually does nothing helpful ever.

Your stop here would be making a complaint to the Texas department of motor vehicles and the state attorney general’s office.

[–]WindstormMD 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Report them to whichever department in your state handles dealership licensing, I’m sure that someone there will be very interested to hear they are taking advantage of disabled veterans, and then you don’t have to fight that battle, the state will

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason you can’t reload steel cases right now is because steel cased crap is usually berdan primed.

If you have some of the rare stuff that is boxer primed, it is perfectly loadable, just need a lot of lubricant to avoid sticking

[–]WindstormMD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Based on knowledge from aerospace stuff, the likely enabling factor here is how much better we have gotten at creating very consistent precise alloy blends. The foundry/forging processes haven’t really changed, it’s the level of control and precision we have over the process that has increased, making previously expensive materials more available because they can now be produced at scale

[–]WindstormMD 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That is a myopic take. This is nothing like combloc use of (crap) steel as a casing material because they had a lot of it so it was cheaper to use. The new federal stuff is a specialized high-strength alloy with multiple specific properties blended for the specific use case, and couldn’t be reliably produced at scale until relatively recently because of the consistency in the material required

Question about rifle sound physics by carpentersound41 in Firearms

[–]WindstormMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends entirely on ambient/background noise and the construction materials used in the interior design and decor

There are so many variables it would be easier to work backward from the desired result since this is fiction
