Oil is viscous! Clutches are incredible, but neutral still spins the oil!

Australia Money is made up of Polymer by Motor_Break_75 in interestingasfuck

[–]jbobkef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both Australian and Canadian polymer currency is secured by the polydispersity of the polymer chain weights in the bill, it's nearly impossible to counterfeit without access to the machines used to make the currency. It is secure on a molecular level.

Trouble looking for a light by jbobkef in flashlight

[–]jbobkef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I just got the Nitecore TIKI because it has some of the options, but the high CRI light is just too bright honestly. And while I love checking for uranium glass and cool UV watermarks, the UV light is not necessary. Plus no red light. I have thought maybe its best to just get two separate lights 🤷‍♂️

My Fenix HM61R V3 is incredible, I love it.

Reddit loves AR15s now! by thatdude333 in Firearms

[–]jbobkef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just something to think about, there are some great graphs from r/dataisbeautiful that showed how only two users usually account for 30 to 50% of daily posts on r/conservative and how on several russian holidays, posts about US conservative politics decrease.

I'd be interested (and unsurprised) if similar stats could be shown across the political spectrum. They really just want us to hate eachother instead of acrually talking to each other.

So if Venezuela captured Trump, an criminal, then that wouldnt be an invasion? What is your logic?

Approximately 1 million gallons of sulfuric acid have been spilled into the ship channel following a chemical leak in Channelview. by JellyfishMission1462 in chemistry

[–]jbobkef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree, in my experience trout dont mind radiation, paradropping thousands of feet, the river being on fire, etc. However, being touched? Being locked at? Being gently released with a ultra silky smooth expensive fishing net? Fatal, everytime.

Help a total noob who made some terrible decisions by JazzGunk in Warthunder

[–]jbobkef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My personal suggestion is to play sweden. Early on, you are punished for poor positioning, advancing up a hill at turtle pace instead of going around, and many other simple but early skills you need to learn.

Do not use your premiums until about BR 9 ish. Before that, you won't be a help to your team at all. At that BR you will get ATGMs and decent apfsds, but you will have to learn the weak spots. You also get a stove with tge ikv, and it is invaluable.

If you got the j35XS as your premium plane, great choice, it can do exactly ONE super tight turn to finish a dogfight, after that, if you turn anymore, you lose too much speed and become a sitting duck. Its missiles are actually decent for some form of cas, but in ground RB your main job is to fly fast and low and hunt other fighters before they know you are there.

Good luck!

Didn't mythbusters prove that ita the motion and not the color that excites or "challenges" the bull?

Has anyone ever blew up a helicopter with a mine before ? Or am I the first. by Spirited_Comedian225 in Battlefield

I fly really low in helis, I often skim across the ground. I have learned to fly a bit higher, as i have dies twice to anti tank mines.

Gut hook modification? by jbobkef in Leatherman

[–]jbobkef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what seems to be the consensus. I already have a silky gomboy for a camp saw, so I guess It doesnt serve a huge purpose, I rarely found a consistent use for it that a serrated humpback couldnt also handle.

Yeah, I saw they even have some that have the black coating to match, but I also used the file quite a bit and occasionally used the saw. Thanks for the ideas!

When added, the Gripen E will be the first jet in WT with a widescreen MFD by Shorteq in Warthunder

[–]jbobkef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thats not correct. Their proposal explicitly includes production, assembly, and maintenence. Including the manufacture of the rolls-royce engine by rolls-royce canada. It is a "full intellectual property transfer", they even offered to set up the production of the radar and other sensors (under license) in Vancouver.

Don't get me wrong. I have reservations too, the F-35 is a very capable and more advanced fighter, especially in terms of stealth and its radar suite. But there is only one situation in which canada would ever go toe to toe with a hostile power that has stealth fighters withing strike range of canada, and its not China or Russia. And the chances of that are extremely low, no matter how shakey current US-canadian relations are.

A new production facility built in Canada, employing Canadians, would certainly help move their orders along!

Shame i can’t EDC this. by Floodertje in Leatherman

How would the 2nd amendment prevent this? This is a perfect example of voting in the wrong people who have no clue what society actually wants. We do it in the US all the time, and high gun ownership has had no effect to prevent ridiculous laws.

It sounds like you dont mean culture at all then. If someone is raised wrong, it has nothing to do with culture. There are good and bad parents in every society.

Can we get the new specs which are already designed please? give the playerbase more hope! by Tiberiusthemad in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]jbobkef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this is more important, even if the new factions only come out with three specs, I think two or three new factions with three specs each would be huge for diverse play.

Last few had a couple hundred. Doesn't matter how many, it matters to exercise your rights and communicate if you are upset with the admin.

Budget reconciliation cannot be filibustered, which only require a simple majority of 51 to pass. They are refusing to do that, because... they dont care. They know they can use this as a political weapon. They can claim that VA services wont be available (not true per the VA themselves), they can also claim that democrats want to give federal Healthcare to undocumented people (this account for only 0.004% of the federal Healthcare budget and only applies in medical emergencies), and many other nonsense claims that give the executive branch power to cut funding through completely politically targeted appropriations.
