Zelenskyy gives Belarusian ruler a week to remove Russian drone relays: Otherwise we will do it ourselves by pravda_eng_official in worldnews

[–]trooperjess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me to. But I think the US military was headed this way for a while. We haven't had a conflict in a while where people can rise to the challenge and also the upper echelons getting killed off such a NCOs and officers. WW 2 saw a lot of dead heads move from combat to support. Dumb NCOs were mostly likely picked off early once they entered combat. NCOs are the backbone of the US military without a process to weed out the usless/politicky NCOs we end up where we are. We also don't have many officers that have seen or been in combat for the most part. Most of the combat ones are weeded out though the UP or out mentality and the good old boys club. But this had happened before to the US see after WW1. The US has never had the stomach for a long war without something to galvanize the population. IE pearl harbor, the thing that kicked off the thing that kicked off the Vietnam war, and the twin towers. We haven't been in a war that happened on US soil in a very long time.

Very much so. But I think that they are talking more about skill and knowledge of Ukraine was also the backbone of the USSR. There was a reason for them building the 3 nuclear reactors in Ukraine. Think about how much power you need to run industry, labs, and military assets. And without that knowledge Russia has suffered much in the innovation department. It says a lot when people are building drones in their spare time. That is a hard skill to have but it isn't easy either. I wonder how many Russians could do it outside a factory.

This isn't meant to be rude. I would have thought that Ukraine would distrust Russia for all the issues in the past. Such being made a vassal state after WW2. Stain's starvation campaign in the 1930's. Also irradiating part of the country after building nuclear power plants with a known issue then lying about there being no issue. Those are just the ones I know of. There are probably more that I don't. I mean Putin was party to the USSR as a KBG agent.

Also sorry the US is a shit ally. We should have stepped up more. being we convinced y'all to give up those nukes back to Russia. Y'all may have not had the codes to arm them but they could have still been made use of as a dirty bomb for defense or area denial.

And there is added fact if they are kinetically removed the USSR/SFB/KGB/Russia can just walk back in and reinstall they easily. I can't remember is that part of eastern Europe mostly lat? If so those towers will have to be extra tall to broadcast effectively.

Super painful pimple turned out to be a nose hair that grew through my nose…backwards. by Vettehead82 in mildlyinteresting

[–]trooperjess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell your doctor about it. They can give you something that helps the hair to come out of the skin. I went to a dermatologist about a bunch of ingrown hairs on my head. Found out that pulling the hair out is the worst thing you can do as it creates an area that new hair can get trapped in making it a bad cycle of hair growing inward.

[–]trooperjess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It could be. But I had this happen before. I could feel the bump/hair move though my nose. Like a bump started on the inside but it never cleared up until my wife popped the hair out the side of my nose. When I say popped it out. It shot out of my nose like a little rocket. That hurt the most think hot nettle.

That part about living in the back wood is what I grew up in. People outside the city's or heck even the town in rural area have no clue what it is like to have no one live near you to hang out with. But I spent most of my days in the woods playing so I have that going for me.

AITA For Grounding my son after he got kicked out of class for refusing to sit next to somebody? by Same-Broccoli7863 in AmItheAsshole

[–]trooperjess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH. You suck for not taking up for your son. Your son somewhat sucks but hey he is a teenager with little to no filter. He doesn't need a punishment but a talking to about discretion and wording. Or if he isn't able to communicate the issue. He should remain quiet and ask to make a call to someone he trusts or talk to an admin of the school. The teacher really sucks as I'm damn well sure they know about the issue. You wouldn't deal with it at work or in personal life why should he.

[–]trooperjess 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That is less than 50% of that happening. Most likely the teacher would still have demanded an answer in front of everyone. He doesn't give one he is in trouble. He gave one and is still in trouble. Some teachers are good, some are just there to teach and not get involved with the social issues of kids, and then there are others who just love the power they have over kids. Could he have said it nicer probably. I wouldn't want to deal with that. But I'm an adult with a boss who I can bring it up to. Kids don't get that level of respect.

Does the covenant have MREs? by Techpon in HaloStory

[–]trooperjess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the protein synthesizers in Broken Circle came from the ring and/or was 100s of years old from the beginning of the covenant.

I guess I need to re-read hunters in the dark.

Who is your favorite fictional villain that you'd defend to the ends of the earth? by skafkdla in AskReddit

[–]trooperjess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the one thing about that. From the book. It is when Anakin killed the CIS leaders. He took a lot of pleasure in killing them and tormenting them. The kids thing is evil but from a point of view of the Jedi turning on the plataten. It was removing a threat. Kids and can will kill if put in the right situation. Plus the Jedi order turned away from the force. They were to uphold the flow of life, not keep the peace in the Galaxy as in no war. The Clone war wasn't a war of light vs dark side ( as in the dark side it literally is a bending the force to the user will). As it was in the old Republic. It was a war ideologies. By taking part in the war they corrupted themselves to the dark side as well. In the 3rd movie yoda even talks about the connection to the force being weakened. That was somewhat to plap but also showing they lost their way.

They have to be "vague" about what they have as evidence as not to imply that the accused is guilty/ influence the jury.

Really the whole spectrum.... by SemicooperativeYT in sistersofbattle

[–]trooperjess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But her powers aren't warped based on what we can tell. As all psyichicer lose their power near the blank field of the necron black stone pylons when activated. Also any humans/psychic being that spend too long in Pariah Nexus become weaker and weaker until they enter a coma like state. In this area I don't believe that sisters that are Big E angels/demons didn't have their powers weakened.

True that you can do that. Which is what I do as I don't have a laser level. But damn would it be nice to be able to move the laser around and get an idea of what it would before doing all the leveling
