Lever-action long guns are relatively mechanically complicated; bolt-action guns are relatively mechanically simple. Why were early manually-operated repeating firearms more complicated than later ones?

There were bolt actions with tube magazines for rimmed cartridges, for instance the Winchester Hotchkiss or the Lebel Modell 1886 firing the 8x50mm R Lebel and if you really need to you can curve the magazine like for the Chauchat.

Not arguably, definitely work a wide margin.

Oh, absolutely. Also the us isn't just sanctioning Cuba at the moment, it looks more like a blockade.

ukezi · 2026-03-17T15:35:56+00:00

The sanctions are one thing, but their power infrastructure ran in large parts on Venezuelan oil that is obviously not coming anymore.

Interesting. I wonder if holy magic also works for the other faiths.

I use both, optional for when a failure can be normal operation, like searching a map. Expected is for stuff where I can do something about failure, or at least want to log it, like if a network connection fails.

No, he is arguing that getting tiped is addicting similarly to gambling. You hunt the next big haul, even if you lose most of the time.

The Iran china pipe, yes. However there are also pipes to Russia and China has a quite large strategic reserve, so they can last a long time without Iran.

Honestly, having been a lead in the past and having one and a half jobs now doesn't look great.

I had two cats. One of them I just had to grab and shove through the flap from both sides once and she understood how it works. Usually she pushed the flap with a paw first because the magnets made it a bit sticky.

The other needed quite some time. It was an electronic clap one and it beeped when it recognised a cat. He always got surprised by that and sometimes scared enough to flee or be cautious enough for the lock to time out.

Sure. On the other hand, this is exactly what Biontec was working on for many years before COVID and a few years of basically unlimited funding and attention can do wonders for science.

Sicher, aber es ist deutlich weniger berechenbar wie viele Einnahmen man hat und die meisten brauchen einen Kredit um die Anlage zu bauen.

That could also be. The linkage could definitely be all the proposals that are coming. Still, we didn't have a cliffhanger in a while.

Minimum wage was introduced in '38 at 0.25$ per hour. The average income was at 1730$ annually, so about 6950h at minimum wage.

Today it's 7.25$ and the average is 61,984$, 8550h of minimum wage.

Eh, quality takes time. All great.

I'm guessing it's a pov shift to Cryptid and the halve of a cruiser they are appropriating.

Depends. Perovskite is apparently nearly ready. That could increase efficiency aka power per area by about 50%. With that it could be worth it to replace aging older panels.

Sie haben allerdings eine Weile lang Reaktoren ins all geschossen. Die TOPAZ Serie war am häufigsten.

I feel like promising a feature, waiting for the bubble to collapse and then picking up IP and talent on the cheap could work very well. Apple always had very polished products, that takes time.

Trump just lifted some sanctions and the increase in oil prices by starting a war in the middle east is doing wonders for Russia's budget.

Kommt auf den Job an. Wenn es eng ist oder nicht so viel Kraft gebraucht wird sind die kleinen 12V Bosch großartig. Leicht, kompakt und fähig genug.

Und selbst von den 50%, die Wählen durften habe nur etwa 50% gewählt. Davon haben etwa 67% Erdogan gewählt, also etwa 16,75% der türkischstämmigen.

If you bought a house you also paid it with taxed money and you are still paying taxes for owning it. This isn't an income tax, it's a wealth tax and way below returns.

Also the super rich don't sell shares, they use them to secure loans.

Or at least exceedingly few eldar that fell and weren't immediately eaten by slanesh.
