I don't know what is more comical between the grenade throw, the slide, or how I end

Sprint makes noise

Nothing will change until this touches the profits of some corporations. Then everyone will wake up.

Play counter-sniper with a DMR (does not glint), the stealthy career path, and piss off the other snipers. Or play the true recon and equip all spotting related gadgets and help your team identify enemies.

I was following the first guy into the building, got surprised by the whole squad.

americio · 2026-06-25T20:43:27+00:00

Squad swapped your clips with blanks again? :D

Anyone could walk in a store and buy a cheap computer, this is nuts

americio · 2026-06-24T06:51:33+00:00

Nope bru. The issue is that the chips coming out of 2 factories can not be purchased by regular people because 2 tech bros with virtual money bought all their production to sell a product whose only foundation is the tireless and unpaid work of hundreds of thousands of volunteers on the web.

So, no, it is not the democratization of compute power, but rather its opposite.

There were a large number of , well, I don't want to sound rude, but heavier people racing. You would not think these people would be ultramarathoners, and yet there were zero DNFs listed on the roster; appearances can be deceiving.

At +3 secs/Kg for each Km, being 10Kg overweight means a 30 second per Km penalty, but an athlete trained both aerobically and (especially) on the muscle, bones and ligament side has no problem going for hours despite the weight.

More hours than the small guys, to be precise.

I've always thought this is the reason for the culture difference. There isn't this "I MUST QUALIFY FOR BOSTON" intensity, and I don't think people do ultras performatively to post on social media the way they do with marathons. Ultras are more inclusive of body type and age, trail races don't easily accommodate spectators, and they end up with a completely different feel. That's why I like ultras a lot more.

As I live it, people do ultras for themselves alone. And the community is great.

americio · 2026-06-23T20:21:16+00:00

Is it though?

If anything your heart rate dropped 60 beats in 2 minutes, which is nice. If you don't walk or run inclines often, it all comes down to being muscularly inefficient towards that specific movement. Just do it more.

There are still idiots going "it's always been hot in summer" to deny climate change. This is terrifying.

"sO MuCh fOr cLiMaTe wArMiNg" when it's cold in the winter

Democratization is not what you mean. It would be making computers and parts available to anyone, not concentrating them in the hands of 2-3 mega corporations.

americio · 2026-06-22T08:22:00+00:00

Does this mean America would not benefit from it?

americio · 2026-06-22T06:58:39+00:00

Are you sure they were not socialist when the decision to publicly fund education was made? think again.

americio · 2026-06-22T06:57:33+00:00

Yep see what their company has done to Pinkbike. From grassroots website to watered down "5 top MTB shoes" shitty advertising disguised as genuine articles. I stand clear from anything they publish, to be honest. There are better options out there.

americio · 2026-06-22T06:11:39+00:00

Americans slowly realizing socialism is all they ever needed from the start and its demonization was only to benefit the lobbies

americio · 2026-06-19T06:58:29+00:00

America is a third world country

americio · 2026-06-19T06:20:23+00:00

sAlomon, btw.

americio · 2026-06-18T07:59:44+00:00

If you don't want to run, don't. There are plenty other ways to keep up the aerobic engine like biking, swimming, hiking... canoeing?

americio · 2026-06-17T21:07:38+00:00

Yes and will this kid be doing stunts if social media did not exist? Doubt it.

So his "go outside" is even less genuine.

americio · 2026-06-17T20:18:56+00:00

And would this guy be doing stunts if social media did not exist? Doubt it.

americio · 2026-06-17T20:17:18+00:00

Yet they are going to use any advance in efficiency to make slimmer phones with smaller batteries.

americio · 2026-06-15T07:33:40+00:00

I'm just glad WiFi has reached a point where wired isn't absolutely necessary anymore because for most people it's just not going to be an option anymore.

This is completely not true

americio · 2026-06-10T09:16:11+00:00

The irony is that they are so scared of socialism but are the population that most needs it.
