Thanks. Me too, man, me too. Otherwise everything is following me into the grave.

@rjshae I dont get the reference can you fill me in? I really dont understand the US military reluctance to go fully unmanned. What the difference between the pilot sitting in the ****pit, observing a bank of sensor displays and carrying out the mission, and a pilot doing the exact same thing in a room at some base? I suppose there could be a few milliseconds of "lag" between input and aircraft reaction? I mean, its not like theyre looking out the windows to see whats going on around them. It seems to me that the meat sack is just a liability in a bomber. IMO, we also need to stop clutching our pearls about "AI" and start making some serious gains.

You remind me of Walsingham. Maybe they should give up since it didnt work the first time? I hope I live to see it but at least my daughter will benefit. w00t!

Same. Well, it goes from the tap, into a Brita pitcher, then drank. Also coffee (but mostly in the evening instead of the morning) and IPA beers. I should cut the beer out but its super strong (for a beer) so I only need to drink a few to catch a buzz. I never ever drink pop.

My wife barely knows this forum exists, so when I die Ill just disappear, nobody will come on to announce it. She also 100% runs the household finances, so unfortunately, she always "spoils" herself to the gifts because shes always peeping the Chase app and the Amazon cart/previous orders.

Yeah, tetanus and whooping cough are combined into one shot here too and 100% free. That shot didnt bother me but the Shingles felt like I got punched in the arm. My elderly sister was riding my ass about getting the Shingles vaccine (its recommended at 50yo here and Im already two years past that). She wasnt vaccinated and caught it and said it was the worst pain ever. Then she convinced herself that one of her older friends died from catching it and the pain was too much. I think my physical was free too...they didnt even ask for a copay and I havent gotten any bill yet.

Russia firing unarmed missiles to deplete Ukraine air defense, says U.S. military official | Reuters That may be why some of the shot down missiles are still mostly intact, no boom.

I cant remember, do you have any pets? Does it scare them? Are you worried about Kaylon 1 driving through a pet accident?

In addition to the above reply, I think Russia is also trying to "drain down" the Ukraine air defense stocks by launching a lot of inert and old missiles. Ukraine cant know which is live and which is a dummy so they have to react to everything.
