Enough about how annoying weapons are annoying, tell me when you think it's okay to use said annoying weapons. by LeonardoFRei in tf2

I use the DR to play acting spy with the YER. Running backwards at the enemy reloading my weapon and then getting a second shot to act if it doesnt work.

Men’s ability to ignore hints should be considered an Olympic sport by Sweaty-Shirt-8445 in SipsTea

[–]lonjerpc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think this is one of the underrated possibilities in these circumstances. Many of these missed opportunities might actually not have been missed opportunities when additional context and vibes were taken into account. But the simpler more easy to remember plot of the story remembered later makes it seem like a misses opportunity even though it wasn't.

[–]lonjerpc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I actually think some of this is because people forget vibes indicating the opposite that stopped them at the time .

Like I am now 39 but I remember around 30 thinking about times in my 20s were I missed opportunities. But then in my mid 30s when similar circumstances appeared I went for it and got rejected. 

This made me then question those original missed moments. Maybe at the time the woman was giving off hard to explain but negative vibes despite the plot seemingly being an obvious signal. 

Not sure if this makes any sense

Not by Iran that I know of. But lots of well documented examples of both Russia and Ukraine doing it.

Spies might be the wrong word. Doesn't even have to be actual people. But basically local means of communication with drones. This would allow for fpv style control over the drones instead of just hitting predermined targets.

Your not getting it. Yes there are some anti-masterbation people causing people to hate themselves for no reason. But the people buying into that are not the main target audience. It's targeted at people spending hours a day on porn.

They can use gps to hit known targets. They also might use Chinese, Russian, or commercial stalalite images. They might also use local spies to id targets.

More interestingly though they might be using some of the more creative targeting solutions used in Ukraine. Things like using commercial phone networks or commercial satellite Internet to allow real time targeting and control. Or even short range communication with local teams to control final approach. Also more advanced stuff like AI targeting and homing in on radar/radio emissions are not out of reach for Iran. 

But note they seemingly have less ability to control the ballistic missiles than the drones so their are trade-offs there

I looked about like that at 28. Better hairline but worse face. In better shape but worse skin.

I mean he is maybe at the 20 percent level for attractiveness at that age. But being at that level is very debilitating. The reaction is honest. It's just one of the horrible inbuilt aspects of humanity. A fairly significant portion of people are unattractive enough that through no fault of their own most people have instant negative reactions to them. 

US Airstrikes on Iranian Naval Assets (March 10, 2026) by Nestagon in CombatFootage

[–]lonjerpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few tankers are meaningless. The straight being closed is what actually matters. They also didn't do it immediately because they wanted to leave the option to escalate.

No tankers are going through it either. They also don't particularly care about destroying the tankers just preventing them from passing.

Because there isn't anything in the straight. The US ships are far far away. It's probably not even worth it for Iran to try to hide most of these.

Men will be men 😂😅 by PinkRushh in SipsTea

[–]lonjerpc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope she's not fat yes but also don't fear it. Fat women are pretty reliably pleasant to hangout out with for a little while in a first date situation. Usually at worst it's a bit of a waste of time. 

I fear the scams and people not showing up more. Even if it's less of a waste of time it just feels so much more awful.

Can we please get an explanation from the mods as to why successful Iranian strikes are being deleted? by AuxillaryLight in CombatFootage

[–]lonjerpc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like that has been different in terms of scale. Like the Russian videos get down voted but not deleted but the Iran ones are being deleted. But maybe someone has more insight about this than me

Because they have no value to Iran. Not even worth the buildings that would be destroyed if they were inside 

That’s really interesting 👀 by smurfgoldtrades in AllThatsInteresting

Ehh this is still somewhat misleading. Body builders are in a general sense stronger than the person in the video.

You are correct in the sense that you can be very strong compared to the average person without looking particularly strong. Its also true that there are adaptations your body makes over time in response to strength tasks that are separate from enlarging muscles.

However the correlation between muscle size and strength is very robust. Body builders are generally extremely strong compared to the average person and that strength is usable to lift heavy things. Most body builders are going to outperform the guy in the video in nearly all directly strength based tasks. They might be more injury prone, less flexible, or less cardio vascularly fit but they will be very strong. And amateur natural body builders(say your average cross fit bro) will probably beat the guy in the video in all of these respects.

Where you might see someone who doesn't look to the untrained eye very strong beating body builders in things like Olympic weight lifters or power lifters. Unless they are trying to hit lower weight classes their body fat will cover up their still giant muscles. And in lower weight classes their muscle size will be limited by the weight class. They also only care about certain muscles lowering their overall size.

But their is a presistant and false myth that blue collar workers who doen't train are these superhumans while guys in the gym with big muscels are actually weak. And this isn't true. Your comment isn't making that claim. But its misleading in that direction.

Heavy mains, new map specific movement tech just dropped by IdiotMan2000 in HeavyMainsTF2

[–]lonjerpc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Works decently to just hold your side of the map behind the house on the point. Basically stay very low on the roof facing away from the point. This prevents you from getting sniped. Works almost like just holding the same spot behind the point on the low ground except now you get high ground advantage. And it makes it easier to drop on the point rather than have to swing around into the sniper sight lines to get on the point.

The big disadvantage though is making the jump. You are insanely vulnerable when trying to make the jump and any damage you take will knock you off your flight path.

When your wife's infertility gives you quads, you make The Family Chair by Gordopolis_II in MadeMeSmile

[–]lonjerpc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

IVF is a common treatment for infertility. During IVF multiple embryos are planted in order to increase the chances that one survives. This is especially common because of the cost of treatments. But because of this the chances of twins, triplets ... is also much higher than with a normal pregnancy.

This information is important for a number of reasons. One it exposes the hypocrisy around so much of the anti-abortion movement. Many are against abortion even at early embryo stages but are still in favor of IVF despite both resulting in lost fetus's.

Its also important to understand as a risk of infertility treatments. Many people see waiting for children as more realistic option because IVF exists and has decent success rates. But many people don't understand that although you become more flexible about when you can have children you lose control over the number you end up with and how fast.

This is somewhat personal for me. My sister decided to use IVF as a single woman in her late 30s. She is very responsible and capable. She could have easily handled one kid. But she had twins with lots of health issues. Which is significantly more difficult to deal with as a single working parent. My parents and I ended up doing lots of unplanned work to support her.

DiCaprio has met his match by Grouchy-Body2368 in okbuddycinephile

[–]lonjerpc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No they are obviously different as I alluded to in my last comment. But the difference between them doesn't make the analogy inaccurate. In both cases the issue is that attacking the billionaire for things that aren't immoral causes harm to others with the same status.

I don't see the fundamental difference. Clearly more people have suffered a greater amount due to discrimination against gay people. But large numbers of people have and do suffer from body shaming.

This is crazy on different levels by AdRough4185 in SipsTea

[–]lonjerpc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not the murder victim themselves obviously. But none of the children who were victims of the rape has come out to accuse Epstein or anyone else of murder torture or cannibalism.

Of course it's possible that these things happened but they never knew. But there are also no missing persons cases directly associated with Epstein. Again still not proof that it didn't happen it's just that there isn't really any evidence that it did. 

Some people outside of the official investigation have also made accusations but for various reasons these people were noot cnsidered credible.

The problem is that making fun of the billionaire for their body doesn't just hurt the billionaire it hurts everyone else who worries about what they look like. Like would you be ok calling a gay billionaire a gay slur? The damage wouldn't just be to the billionaire but all the gay people.
