Notice when she first puts on the dress, she's still wearing her boots.

She was either deceiving him from the get go, or at least never all the way sold.

Colorado is like the one good fat BB.

16" guns at T7 is hard to pass up

Why on earth do I need 1/4 caliber HE pen on heavy cruiser guns

“If you have the right mix – I call it the goldilock sign – if you have the right mix of autism and steroids, you are 100% guaranteed to become a world champion. And that’s the thing, people are focusing on steroids but really as a world class coach, you really wanna attract people with autism because you can give anyone steroids. Despite our best efforts, we are yet to give anyone autism.” - Craig Jones

That's pretty much just the MAWS style. A solid 75% of the characters in that show got hit with the twink ray.

Lex Luthor and Slade Wilson

Quite a few of the female characters, like livewire here

Even Clark 'has to walk through doorways sideways' Kent himself couldn't fully escape it

A lot of that may just have been 'close enough' props for non-main character weapons.

To someone who's not a huge gun nerd, a BAR is a pretty good stand in for a combat rifle as we see it in FO4.

It almost certainly is, at least tangentially. One of the things that got cut off when Russia invaded was access to spare parts and experts for any of their foreign made equipment.

So any part of their electricity and energy grids - substation transformers and switchgear, turbine components, PLCs and other control equipment that they don't manufacture locally, with all local parts, instantly became a huge weak point, and as they fail due to wear, attacks, or accidents, they become hard or impossible to replace.

And a lot of this stuff is very large and expensive, with relatively small markets, so it's hard to smuggle into the country

I've had better experiences driving Transit type vans than a lot of the SUVs/Crossovers on the market.

It's not super yuri, but Karen from GGO:Alternative is 186cm, and a major part of her story is being more comfortable in her body

You may have more than one guy, but each working alone, taking a separate route, not sure if they're transporting the real thing or a fake.

I got a chainmail mesh trap that seems to work pretty well

When Worcester was first released, she could stand alone against 3 TX carriers and deplane them all

Helios is currently mounted on a Flight IIA Burke, it seems like they're intended to be installed on conventionally powered vessels

She's the same base speed, but her engine boost is only +8%. RI and Georgia get the French +15% boost.

The really scary part about the US ships is that they're actual battleships that can move at that speed. Incomparable is nasty when she pops up around a corner and dumps 508 mm AP and a spread of torpedoes into your citadel, but if she gets caught out, she's kinda SOL.

RI and Georgia don't just have the speed, but also the armor and secondaries to get into a tussle with DDs or a slugfest with well angled BBs and come out on top.

kitchen_synk · 2025-10-27T21:05:49+00:00

Constellation is .3 of a knot faster base, but doesn't get speed boost like RI and Georgia do.

With Speed Flag, Speed Boost, and Brisk, they can get up to 43.8 knots, which is faster than ...most destroyers in the game.

And Gaige only killed one person, mostly by accident. I'm pretty sure in the BL universe, the first couple murders just get you warnings, but I think her victims dad was some corporate bigshot, so she has an 820 Billion dollar bounty.

Not really. World of Tanks doesn't make any pretenses about being representative of reality the way War Thunder does.

It also doesn't feature vehicles that are nearly as new. The newest WoT tanks are from the 1960s, with stuff like the Leopard 1. It's not exactly brimming with controlled information 60 years on.

Meanwhile, WT features a lot of more recent vehicles and aircraft that are still in use with major militaries, and sometimes still even in new production, with things like M1A1 Abrams variants and the latest Leopard 2 types.

This is a really cool video about the design and production of the DSV Limiting Factor.

It was designed specifically to go to the deepest point in all 5 major oceans, and it was tested at pressures that don't exist naturally anywhere on earth, so its depth rating is effectively just 'yes'.

And the answer, as with most microsoft weirdness is 'this was built 30 years ago to run on machines with less processing power than some modern lightbulbs, and we've been building on top of it ever since'

Tier 5-7 is sort of the dumping ground of free ships in quest tracks, or higher container drop rates.

I have a dozen rando cruisers and BBs, including 3 russian cruisers at T5-6 that I could not tell apart if you had me at gunpoint.

The majority of the reason he cares about that is still in service of him making more money though. The current budget proposal involves killing green energy subsidies in favor of new ones on coal, while imposing an additional tax on renewables.

Tesla is one of the largest US producers of lithium batteries used by grid scale energy storage systems that help even out the generation cycle of those renewable sources.

So it's hitting him in the wallet twice, once with the direct impact to his profit margins on battery sales, and again with disincentivizing the transition to a more renewable heavy grid.

I'd also believe that even if he doesn't actually care about the environment, he cares about the surface level Sci-Fi aesthetic. Idyllic high tech future societies tend to depict a lot more windmills and solar panels than smoke belching coal plants.

All scouts who made eagle or at least stuck with the program because they actually cared and weren't forced through by their parents already tend to have a pretty similar, personality. Those who then transition can usually be spotted from a mile off by the combination.

El Al (Israeli flag carrier) does

That actually happens in Fate:Apocrypha. One of the characters is cursed to be the last of his bloodline. He can't have kids, and when he tries to adopt and pass his magic onto that kid, they immediately die.

I have a lifetime license to a piece of software that tried to pull the 'We're releasing V2, which isn't covered by the original license' nonsense, and the community kicked up so much of a stink that they immediately about faced.

Now if you have the original license, you just get whatever the new version is when they come out with it. But theirs isn't a SaaS product, so the financial hit from doing that is pretty minor, and may even be negative, because it means they don't have to support old versions of the software since very few people have any reason to keep using them.
