  1. Id love to see a side by side performance comparison between the RIM-174 Standard ERAM and the S-400 missile system.
  2. Whaaaaa? Were behind in a lot of categories. According to published specifications: 1) The Russians can soot the balls off a gnat with their SAM's. 2) The Chinese have transmedium drones with international flight capability. 3) We dont have any IRBM's at all. 4) Our helmets are total sh!t for preventing TBI's. 5) Our tanks pop like a cork of cheap sparkling wine.

  4. Considering how people drive on the roads around here, Id sooner trust a fusion reactor in my back yard than I would a bunch of people in flying cars.
  5. Im incapable of trimming my own hair. I tried it once...ONCE... and something about trying to do it myself in a mirror gets me all confuzzled and backwards in my mind and I jack the haircut up bad.
  6. First Tasmanian Devils Born on Mainland Australia After 3,000 Years.
  7. US Navy conducts first live-fire test of hypersonic missile motor.
  8. He would have to ask everyone to sign an NDA. Aside, seems like despicable human being.
  9. Well now we need a pic of your oddly shaped-head.
  10. The military is where I had my first real interactions with poc. True story. From my perspective, everyone was treated equally.
  11. The no kill traps work great. A friend of mine had to relocate a bunch of racoons that had taken up residence in his eaves, but driving them to park to release them was a bit of a pita.
  12. Along with my flying car. But unlike the flying car, I have high hopes that the reactor can become viable.
  13. World-First Tokamak Exhaust System Paves Way For Nuclear Fusion.
  14. If things go sideways I was planning on bugging out to your place. Can you leave behind a can of sterno and a couple 5 gallon water jugs before you leave?
  15. Whats bad about September?
  16. Efficacy of Chinese vaccines is “not high”—officials back 3rd dose.
  17. New ‘Morpheus’ CPU Design Defeats Hundreds of Hackers in DARPA Tests.
  18. Youre 100% correct. Our emergency call number (911) literally goes to the closest police station to your current location (but this is frequently obfuscated by cellular phones). So 100% of the time, the first responders will be the police / fire rescue. Now if theres time permitting they will try to call in the specialists, like if someone is sitting on a bridge threatening to jump or a hostage situation etc., but otherwise I think a lot of things happen in a bangbang fashion and theyre forced to deal with it.
  19. I know you realize that there are literally thousands of police interactions per day that do not result in brute force, but I understand your point. Imo, police are more "jack of all trades, master of none" so you will invariably run into situations that they are not the best options for handling.
