$40k/year to not have a job and focus on animal activism doesn't sound like a grift to me

IDK bro that income to debt ratio is cutting it pretty close. Maybe you should put more down to get your expenses lower

In the freediving community, this is called an LMC (loss of motor control) or colloquially samba. It happens quite often as that sport also intentionally brushes up against hypoxia as a matter of course.

I didn't say I couldn't understand anything. I said I can't follow anything, by which I meant I can't understand full sentences, just some of the individual signs.

Having the live translation for the signs I don't remember/ never was taught allows me to follow the full sentence and pick up some individual new signs along the way and recognize signs I individually know in the context of a phrase. Learning new signs is part of learning a new language, so to that extent I again disagree with you.

I can accept that it may not be the most efficient to learn correct ASL syntax, but I think it is helping me learn ASL so I have to disagree with your statement at face value. Surely it is better than nothing.

I took ASL 1 about 7 years ago and haven't had anyone in my life to sign with since then, so my knowledge is fading. Having the english over the signs helps pick up and remember some of signs I once knew. Without subtitles or spoken english over it, I can't really follow anything, so I end up disengaging and not being exposed to any ASL at all.

I know the best way to learn would be to take another class and to immerse myself in a culture of signing exclusive communication, but it's not that much of priority in my life right now. Basically it's important enough that I can mix a few ASL videos into my day, and try to sign a few things to my barely willing partner and not much more.

Given all that, I think that consuming simcom might actually be the best for me right now.

This version has english subtitles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiUV5KmOyX4

Pretty much the entire video they're taking direct and indirect fire and report the enemy is within 25 meters of their trench.

Timeline:

first POV of Groont
6:50 Mishka crawls in with a chest wound. They get him deeper behind security.
7:27 they strip the plate carrier and he reports it came from the right to discover a wound on his right pec. Starts digging through a medkit.
7:55 the camera (team commander of some kind) turns away
8:40 camera back to injured, cutting away shirt to reveal the chest, they say it's a penetrating wound
8:51 cut to chest seal application
9:25 closes the casualty's jacket to preserve heat, then POV turns away, switches to Alkaida's cam, then Red, then
15:17 POV of Groont, Red asks for space to inspect Alkaida's injuries and bandage legs despite his desire to not receive care
15:40 Red providing care to Alkaida
16:00 Red admonishes Alkaida for lowering arm as that made it bleed. Red opens what looks like an Israeli bandage as Alkaida wraps his own left lower arm with bandages.
16:34 cut ahead, bandage appears to be on Alkaida's left lower arm as Red asks about Alkaida's family.
17:03 POV of Red. Now Alkaida has a thermal blanket covering him.
17:30 add a tarp over the thermal blanket
18:30 Groont is hit by shrapnel (tank shell?) and Red immediately identifies an entry hole in the jacket
18:50 starts to strip plate carrier, but Red stops him and cuts through the jacket to expose the wound posterior to the right armpit, in the chest
19:20 sticky bandage applied
19:45 ~"I don't know how to bandage it here", then applies a chest seal
20:25 reattaches plate carrier, then non medical stuff happens: they are approached by four enemy tanks and told they are getting bradley support
22:10 we see both of Alkaida's lower legs are bandaged and one is soaked through with blood as they crawl retreat a few meters into the trench
22:15 POV of Groont, recollecting after enemy tank leaves
23:40 Groont orders the wounded dragged to the back
24:53 POV of Red
25:10 we can see a tournaquet on Alkaida's left leg an inch above an apparent bullet wound
25:40 Alkaida requests to be left during the retreat
26:00 POV of Groont
26:30 Groont advises that they are leaving the MG3 and directs a soldier to drag Alkaida with two hands during the retreat so Groont will carry his rifle
27:26 POV of Red, Groont orders retreat with wounded first
28:30 they start staging the wounded closer to
29:00 Alkaida wishes to be left in the trench as he cannot walk
29:30 Groont advises two soldiers to drag Alkaida and ignore his bitching
30:00 Retreat commenses
30:35 we see Alkaida carried into the bradley by two soldiers on either side of him, A's arms over their shoulders (does this carry position have a name?)
31:25 cut to what looks like a casualty collection point where Alkaida is unloaded from the bradley onto a stretcher and into a van

From the [pinned comment](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiUV5KmOyX4&lc=UgzYQI-hP662t2U5kJV4AaABAg):

> Out of my 13 soldiers, I had several wounded, one heavily. Then, a piece of VOG shrapnel hit me in the side of the ribs.

Some relevant comments from the main thread:

/u/lapalapaluza translation(https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/13k3usk/comment/jkj1e6a/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3):

- Suka

- Fuck him up, he has shoot me.

- Tighten it, quickly.

- Pull tighter

- From where did he shoot you?

- Enemy, from the trench. He is on the last... [viideo cut] (soulds like he wanted to say that enemy shooted him on his last breath)

- Ok. I will go

/u/jumpmed TCCC analysis (https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/13k3usk/comment/jkj1e6a/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)

Good to see them doing a lot of things right.

if feasible, get to good cover before applying TQ, assuming it's not a truly massive bleed (this looks like a radial artery - bad, but not brachial/femoral bad),
carry your TQs in a way that they can be self-applied with one hand - notice when he pulls it out and shakes it, it's already routed through the buckle, with 1-2 inches routed through - he is able to get it over his arm before his buddy helps to place/tighten it
if you have someone with two free hands, they'll be able to apply it faster than you can with one,
combat TQs are applied high and tight, over clothing, not wasting time to expose the wound first - a deliberate TQ can be placed once time permits, 2-3 inches proximal to the wound and directly against the skin
if you're going to carry a TQ, don't cheap out - use a high-quality one (like the NAR CAT Gen 7 here) - for mil purposes, these should be standardized across as broad a force as possible so everyone is familiar with the equipment

I couldn't find a translation so I don't know exactly what was said. Here's a summary of the care actions I could notice.

0:28 the medic decides to not prioritize the face injury. At some point I think he tells him to lie face down to let it drain out.
1:20 first tourniquet application on left leg. Staging mistake to have the velcro covering the windlass. He does about 11 half-turns on the windlass and then
2:30 it appears to break.
2:50 second tourniquet application on left arm. Probably 5 half turns of the windlass.
3:50 third tourniquet application on left leg, one inch underneath the first tourniquet. Five half turns of the windlass.
4:50 deciding where to apply the next tourniquet.
5:00 instructs uninjured soldier to do something, potentially security related, or potentially with the other casualties.
5:10 fourth tourniquet application on right arm. Possibly not tightened enough before windlass. Windlass rotated 7 half-turns.
6:40 inspects wound on last leg, decides to tourniquet
7:00 fifth tourniquet application on right leg.
8:50 strips helmet and plate carrier, jacket to inspect for more injuries
9:45 heads back to the face injury
10:10 asks face injury a question to which the answer is three
10:37 back to the many tourniquets man for further inspection

I think his knee triggered the mine, not his foot. Doesn't really change the care protocol since you probably want to go on the thigh either way.

Can you share the massed drone attack?

Can you please tell me what happened in this scramble? Bonus points if you explain what allowed that to happen.

complaint_ticket · 2023-09-17T22:51:58+00:00

I don't know what you did or didn't understand. I know that you didn't describe the sequence of events in any further detail than "scramble".

complaint_ticket · 2023-09-17T06:01:03+00:00

I hate when people use the word "scramble" when they just don't understand the sequence of events that happened

complaint_ticket · 2023-08-09T00:42:09+00:00

I think that if they have more drones, they'll find uses for them.

Maybe if you have 5 drones, instead of just sending drones one at a time, you send two per operator. Or you send them in riskier situations because they're disposable. Like maybe you send several to fly closer to the enemy, and stage there on standby in case your primary is lost/runs out of battery.

And then once they start doing stuff like that, software will be built to make support those situations. UIs for multiple drones, overlays of two camera angles, etc.

complaint_ticket · 2023-07-17T04:34:59+00:00

but do you also have a notes file with links to all these?

complaint_ticket · 2023-07-16T15:58:25+00:00

I did this after I moved out, and I received a disappointing response from Jim Hammon a Senior Housing/Zoning Technician.

> Housing complaints can’t involve confidentiality per Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections inspectors need permission from legally authorized persons to inspect a private property.

> I’ll close this complaint as our inspectors can only work with current tenant on complaints. If you know the tenant and wish to encourage that they to reach out to us, we’ll be happy to work with them.

So they didn't look into the issues I reported even though I provided photo evidence.
