  2. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-hold-major-navy-drills-involving-all-its-fleets-2022-01-20/ Russian sailors must be overjoyed at all of this extra work.
  3. I dunno, based off the bad behaviour of the SEALs the past couple of years, can see other US special forces behaving likewise and abusing their freedom of decision making - maybe it could be an issue of the people above them giving them too much freedom, this was in the era of Trump and his "gloves off" spiel, right ? Shame no one's head will roll from it though. I got a bit of a chuckle of UK sending their NLAWs (in-laws ? :P) to Ukraine. Wonder if they'll find their way to third parties.
  4. At least power metal is easy to identify. If you feel intense shame at the idea of a family member catching you watching the music video....it's power metal.
  5. I guess my usual things would be a deeper tone or just heavier sound and the speed of it. Heh, maybe am just biased by the thrash bands I first listened to. But usually I check wikipedia to see what the band identifies as if anything
  6. Caestus Metalican > all other tracks.
  7. Should be a section for "Just wait until they stop asking about the problem"
  8. What's offensive about this ? Just go buy it where it's cheaper.
  9. Honestly no, I get enough exposure to crazy people or people spreading idiocy in my life as is.
  10. Sounds like nothing much to get upset over, at least from lens of being attacked over being white
  11. Captured a War Galleon in Sea Dogs (French declared war with Spanish so my mission to go to a Spanish port as a French privateer is not going to work), then the game crashed so I lost my awesome new ship
  12. Are any actually being told that ? I always see whining about that online but never much in the way of proof other than "my friend told me his prof told him..."
  13. Not really sure why Youtube thought this was metal (when bored I rely on the mix playlist to get something to listen to). Maybe is the naked woman on the cover.
  14. You'd think Satan would be ok to intentionally be a deadbeat dad.
  15. Whatever makes gamers unhappy is good.
  16. Same courses in University ? No, but from my experience in school as an engineer if you don't know calculus at a decent level (integrals mainly) you're in for a rough time (other than maybe Computer Engineering, which I've always felt didn't really warrant the title although I am one). In their job they won't use it all that much, but is necessary to understand fundamentals - particularly as some go on to research. But other than that, just curious how he meant it as gatekeeping, been a while but don't recall if it was a requirement for fields more removed than math. Calculus is interesting as all it is for the most part is breaking things down into small amounts and scaling up as needed. 4 years of that and you should be well primed to understand things as comparatively simple as budgets and taxes, hah. Guess though you have to count on the kids being a good judge or being judged well of what they want to go ahead and do in life, if you're going to tailor math teaching to them.
  17. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/coronavirus/os-ne-raul-pino-administrative-leave-20220118-urh66o22kre2voe3kockmfoz3q-story.html Florida is an odd place.
  18. Well, am curious enough, (**** paying $17 for it though ). How did he mean it's used as a gatekeeping device (other than obviously making sure engineers aren't morons that don't know derivatives) in the book ? Also determining who to teach it to makes me think of streaming, which has its issues.
  19. Well, sounds like something people who suck at math will eat up.... Is a shame the way they taught us math in school, looking back they really could have done stuff like linear algebra or calculus earlier, done that way you take nice small bites and nothing much to be scared of.
  20. Yes, because it is racist & sexist against white males, apparently.
  21. True enough. But times change, and all.
  22. There is a God, and He hates us.
