When I was going to college I worked with a lady who had her bachelor's in psychology. We were working in a warehouse unloading trailers together. That was a lesson I took to heart.

When I declared my major it was in for something with lots of job possibilities.

My first Linux installation was with Xubunto put it on a old win98 laptop and used it as a gaming server. Must have been around '06

My first regular Unbunto install was 8.04 onto WinME desktop. I put it on a children's desk and chair that I had built for my 4 year old older son. It was mainly used for PBSkids and some educational games.

I saw about 8 seconds from explosion to landing.

So that puts the apex of that flip at around 75m (250ish feet).

We might be looking at a record.

All those FPV drones that they are using are not pretty. It's the absolute bare-bones drone that they can get. Their effectiveness has been shown over and over again in videos. It's not about aesthetics, it's about effectiveness.

If the women from 13 get involved, 13.

They will be using readily available objects as weapons however.

If made from ash those spears would have been under 10lbs.

Also the spear tips were probably not that heavy. 5" long made from iron and diamond shaped to pierce armor.

They have found metal butt ends for them to counteract weight of the spear tip. If they counterbalanced the spear correctly it would take very little effort to hold it in position.

My wife must be extra tasty. I might get one bite for every 20 she gets. I also rarely react to any mosquito bite. Just a small bump if anything.

I think we'll see more of this in the coming weeks due to the destruction of some of the main ammo storage locations.

Yes. Given the clarity of the recent images of FPV drones attacking artillery pieces this type was pretty much a given. (artillery is usually 15-20km behind the lines).

Drone flight time depends on how much weight it is lifting and how high up it goes. That looks like a pretty light load so I would guess around 30-40 minutes. Fully loaded at max weight the flight time would be around 10 minutes No way to know for sure without some more data. I imagine they are sending it up high (1000m or more) to avoid it being spotted. They can then send it hovering over the front providing high quality signal far to the rear.

Public indecency in front of a group of police officers was goto for many homeless people in my state. It's a minor crime with up to 90 days in jail.

Flash th cops in late November, get out in early March.

Much safer than trying to live on the streets over the winter.

Surprising close numbers to the MLRS that Ukraine says they have destroyed. 1,230 reported destroyed on the most recent update.

Removed from bases 1135.

This indicates that the reports of losses are likely pretty accurate. It still means that Ukraine is facing around the same number in the field unfortunately as Russia has been able to mostly replace its losses.

The last major antitrust action on this scale in the U.S. 8 years to process.

This type of lawsuit is why the billionaire bro's are backing the senile rapist and felon. Making them play somewhat fair ruins their business plan.

That was 20 years ago. We have clawed out way out of poverty and held onto it by the skin of our teeth at times. It was not easy and still isn't but we have mostly made it.

However it's always just step away from falling back down. One layoff due to "market conditions" and soon enough they try to shove you down in that hole.

Like the layoff notification I got this morning, yep one of those can we meet e-mails at 7am...

Jokes on them though, I saw this one coming 6 months ago and set myself up to take all of the suppliers and customers for my division. Hopefully by the end of the week I will have everything on-line.

I am currently laying here going holy fuck, I am really going to do it....

The hardest time my wife and I had financially was when we were escaping poverty. We made 2K to much the year my first son was born to qualify for any government assistance. My wife's main memories of when he was first born was of the endless stream of bill collectors calling in to demand payment. We were buying diapers instead of paying them.

Itty bitty rod shaped things. More like a bunch of really little dicks.

Islam started with the rulers being the head of the church. Not as a completely separate entity adopted by the rulers like Christianity. Most of Islamic traditions in the Hadith is traced back (with very little supporting evidence) to the original founders. The Hadith was the "oral tradition" of what Mohamed said written down a century or two after his death by "scholars" who totally were not fully funded and directed in any way by the rulers.

The Hadith has everything from religious practices to economic laws. These laws amazingly create social classes of elites and everyone else. The elites control the state, military, and religion completely. The non-elites are essentially banned from any legal economic engagement other than worker for an elite. This has created extreme social inequality in most Islamic states today.

Also remember that Islam and Christianity have been shown to be a very mallable tool for political power. The upper echelons were those who controlled the religion, state, and military.

In all islamic and Christian countries, the state religion was essentially a branch of the government.

Yep.

Firing middle managers is a fun way to kill the company. Not that cleaning house is a bad idea. Unfortunately the people making decisions of who to keep and who to let go are usually idiots.

Middle Managers are promoted for two reasons: technical expertise and ass-kissing expertise. Now the technical experts tend to not mix well with incompetent parasitic c-suite types idiots. The ass-kissers are beloved by the c-suite as that is their only role in life.

So when firings come around guess who they get rid of? Then 1-3 years later everyone is shocked when everything starts to fall apart.
