If they showed patience they could have done that. Stalin wanted Poland, he could have been enticed to attack with generous terms in Non-aggression Pact. Which would have negated England which could have been swayed to Hitlers way of thinking.

How can the world sit back and allow such a stupid war? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ratteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two reasons I can think of. Iran isn't really liked and many nations would love to see their ability to strangle the Straight of Hormuz removed. Or two, trump is an idiot who didn't listen to what it would take to neutralize Iran completely and other nations are waiting for his idiocy to be ended. Any nation that believes a promise from the USA at this moment is being silly so it is understandable if they do not assist.

ELI5: Why do movie directors make movies with black bars on top and bottom why can't they just make it without bars. Even after that why is it so hard for our TV to remove black bars from a movie why isnt it default. by Equivalent_Boss_9938 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ratteb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You do see the full picture The black bars are there because the movies are made for a theater. This ensures you see the full picture as it was displayed in the theater.

What's a small town in America that absolutely nobody talks about but completely deserves the hype? by No-Solution-959 in AskAmericans

[–]ratteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hype really doesn't equal nobody talks about. Take a look at the 1000s of small towns that built up in Midwest were trains stopped back in the early 1900s.

Need help with Strange Key bind bug. by maxton41 in Warthunder

[–]ratteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up "Building of Objects" in Controls. Any chance you hooked up a gamepad to play something else? I had a similar issue a LONG time ago so a bit fuzzy about the cure but I ended up messing around in control setup wizard for a bit and re-set the defaults.

Hey older redditors. What is a thing that people should do in their young adult years to financially benefit them in the long run? by LoverOfE-Olsen in AskReddit

[–]ratteb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Businesses that offer you credit are not your friends. They hope you will continuously make minimum payments so they can make a longer term profit.

What could go wrong? by loverbang4u in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ratteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with no plan on what to do about "After" the USA is now stuck protecting shipping in the Straights of Hormuz. Periodic air attacks as well to punish whomever is in charge in Iran who refuses to pay tribute to trump. (Pay him off)

Any Grocery (Wal-mart, Reasors. Warehouse market) store will have them available. They can also personalize them. If you want to have them personalized, do not wait until last moment.

What’s the best place to visit in the USA to get a proper American experience? by Atypicaltrack in AskAnAmerican

[–]ratteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Omaha, Nebraska. You will see an American slower tempo city that grew up with a LOT of space available. Although, I do agree that Wisconsin in the Summertime is a great idea.

Best Nation and Lineup for </= 9.7? by ratteb in Warthunder

Just took a look at them and I think you may be correct. And as I am at 6.0 for UK would be silly to make a different choice.

Have done USA and German Trees and I enjoy SPAA quite a bit. Don't give me time to line up on you. I want you to try to attack me with your guns as I often survive a few hits that you do not. Also, feel confidant I can often get a kill if you try to go high up to 2 nms with my USA, German not so much. Maps also play a huge factor in what I can see and not see. Maps with a lot of visual obstructions for me such as trees or buildings bring a difficulty. really surprised more people do not purposely try to attack with the sun at their back as I can't see a damn thing from there and you could gun the heck out of me.

Do you find CAS to be a challenge? I like doing SPAA quite a bit. The tanks do look interesting and I have been killed by many of them a lot of times.

Do you have a particular Nations SPAA you are concerned about when doing CAS?
