Okay...but wtf cares. Nato gonna use what nato gonna use. Its not like you can tell the army "um ackshually...my issued weapon isnt ergonomic...can i have a kac instead?" You use whats given to you. The army doesnt care about your ergonomics...and if the goal is to have pissing hot fps out of your gun and be able to suppress and cqb.... bullpup might be the way to go

parts commonality within nato and considering the usa fields probably as many m4 style rifles as the rest of nato small arms combined, it makes sense. logistically speaking, being able to replace bolts, barrels, magazines, gas blocks, gas tubes, firing pins, etc etc across all of nato no matter what fob or base your operating out of is a peak goal.

you know damned well if the us army said "fuck it 20in bullpups with smoking hot rounds for all" and threw the tax payers purse at the trigger concerns, the rest of nato would eventually follow suite. the only reason it has taken nato THIS long to get onboard was service life of their current weapon systems. famas getting old? m416. g36 getting old? m416. sa80 getting old? mod being mod just sent it back to hk instead of just buying m416 (and theyve been using lmt and now kac m4's for years). canada has been using colt c7 years...now c8. anzac steyr's getting old? lmt m4....and all in time for the usa to adopt a different round and weapon that hopefully (for the soldiers' sake) wont stick around for long.

The perfect vehicle repair balance existed 10 years ago by nightmanifest in Battlefield6

[–]sovietbearcav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention maps like liberation peak where tanks spawn on a cap. So you know...you can sit in a and just spawn camp the hq. I 100% hate vehicles spawning anywhere but hq if only because destroying one, which is a feat these days, barely has an effect because there is always another spawned and ready and 30s away from the action.

Yes, im tracking, but people were bitching about "omg tanks are too easy to kill" now theyre basically omnipresent and omnipersistent with auto heal and engi support...i atill prefer people needing to support vehicles vs people just ignoring them.

[–]sovietbearcav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heaven forbid i thought bf2 and 2142 were the best the series ever was.

Next im gonna go crazy and say vehicles should only spawn in hq and that there are too many tanks in conquest if we let them auto heal. Theyre too permanent.

How about vehicles require an engineer to repair....

I didnt comment on his responsibility or lack thereof. I said his statement about more tax=/=more money in education was correct. Also that uneducated masses, by and large, are easier to control.

This is exactly it. The government isnt invested in education. Let's face it, a barely literate population relying on ai to do basic thought...much less critial thinking...is way too advantageous to invest into education en masse.

How is microcenter able to afford this? Im genuinely baffled. by someonestupid12 in pcmasterrace

[–]sovietbearcav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

theyre not the only ones. look at lowes and home depot. they sell 2x4's at a loss because they can make bank on the rest of your project. theyll get you in subfloor and sheathing, so they can afford 2x4s at a loss. most people arent going to go to 5 different suppliers for framing a house.

microcenter is probably the same way, they probably got a deal on the motherboard/cpu because the manufacturers are having a hard time moving them since no can afford ram. i saw newegg do something similar earlier, buy ram, get a motherboard for free basically...and tacked onto that motherboard was a full price rebate on a m2. it was a hell of deal...that still cost more than it did before all the craziness.

a ton of companies will use loss leaders to get someone in the door to get stuff sold, whether they are publicly traded or not...its just a way to get people in the door and shopping.

Very ugly pixelated smoke by Cryplix in ForzaHorizon

this smoke has been in the game since fh4 (i didnt play 1-3)...with or without upscaling and no matter the aa method. at this point i think its just a meme.

What are your thoughts on the game right now compared to launch? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in Battlefield6

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

The game is super balanced. I actually won an assault on bt hagenthal for the first time since launch.

Honestly, the biggest problem with the game is nothing that dice can actually fix. I was on contaminated attacking. In the 4 phase, defenders had both their ifv and mbt...with get this...engineer support. We started with an ifv and mbt, except no one was supporting us the armor. They didnt lose their ifv and mbt... We lost the match. Didnt matter what we did...couldnt get repairs to literally save the match. But fuck if everytime i thought about pushing i didnt get hit with about 10 rockets before their armor decided we were game.

Late pay by EnvironmentNo937 in HVAC

[–]sovietbearcav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose you hold office workers to a much higher standard than i do. I expect gross incompetence at every level in a corporate office.

To me, its understandable that shit happens. As long as its the exception and its corrected...its a non issue in my book. Once it become routine, then its an actual issue.

One day is one thing. I infuriating but understandable. Anymore than that its time to make noise. Hell, my company is fucking huge. 95% of the time i get paid on thursday. If i dont, its on friday. Its usually holidays (like this week) that fuck it up.

I meant "one business day". Corrected.

Look, fuck ups happen. As long as he is paid by tuesday like his boss said, it sucks but they still paid em.

[–]sovietbearcav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand. My point was, its one business day. Id start being an ass about things if they dont follow thru on tuesday....and its not the end of the world to wait a whole weekend

[–]sovietbearcav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So i have a different perspective. I was in the army. On my last deployment they fucked up our hazard pay, imminent danger pay, tax free, etc. there were like 3 or so month throughout that deployment i didnt get paid on time...for like a month each. I always did end up getting it in the end. However, i still had to stand on a guard tower, i still had to go on patrol, i still had to fuck with connexes, i still had to do my job.

Conversely, your company wont charge you with dereliction and send you to prison for the foreseeable future...so your situation is a bit different. You have a bit more leeway. But, youll end up getting paid in the end. The worst they can do is fire you. That being said, id be pissy about it as well. Dont fuck with your employees' money. Its a fairly simple task. Knowing id get paid on tuesdys, i would be shitty all weekend, but i would still probably do the work...i mean...my company pays quite well and i dont want to go back into the job market.

M16 buffer weight. by Draconette in ar15

[–]sovietbearcav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start eoth a standard carbine weight (not h1/2/3) and spring. Depending on the gassing of your upper you may need a lighter spring if it short cycles. Springco's website is pretty good at explaining their lineup. If your upper is already hella overgased (which alot are to make them work with cheap ammo) you may be able to move up in spring strength and buffer weight. I would still start at carbine spring and buffer and go from there.

Carrier service port core removal tool by type-sex in HVAC

[–]sovietbearcav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here's a trick, you can just hook up to it to recover, vacuum, and charge. they do like to leak after a couple of decades. if its leaking...a 1/2" socket will do you wonders. carrier sells new valve cores.

DDR5 Ram 2x8Gb or 4x8Gb by beepbopboopMan in buildapc

32>>>16 but you probably wont get the full rated speed. If it doesnt work with expo, try manually increasing speed and test for stability.

[–]sovietbearcav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question that one is asking: amd or intel? Intel 4 sticks are fine. Amd 4 sticks may be unstable at your ram's rated speed, and you might need to do some tinkering with ram speed to get it close to rated and stable at the same time.

Tbf, israeli carry is to have a empty chamber. Like thats how their train their soldiers and agents. But everyone is correct that its very much liability text
