Debt is debt right? Whether its going to defeat one of our long time "enemies" or its going to do a study on the long term harm to the mosquito population in Dubuque county California, it's still debt. It's not like adding to the debt is anything new for eiher side when they are in charge.

Were you bitching just as much when we maxed out the credit cards every other year for less consequential shit?

holy shit

It's not the fall that kills em, its the bullet in the back of the head

FAA confirmed 1000' separation at stop. Sounds like the ground radar saved the day. Next step for greater safety has to be some sort of automated communication to the aircraft in conflict versus an alert that relies on a human to hear/see the alert, then identify the conflict, then communicate to the conflicted aircraft?

I don't think the person you're quoting is the "triggered" one here 🙂

Thats the guy who prevented Guam from tipping over right?

Thats what I'm wondering. He wants to run and "they" don't want him to. Do they tear him down this way though? Seems there are easier less messy for everyone ways.

Enough scotch and the Lossie honey's are a close second 🙂

Should have went to Lossie 🙂 Smack dab in the middle of the best scotch distilleries in the world.

My point

So why wasn't he drafted higher?

Crap shoot indeed. Look at Purdy. Mediocore big12 qb drafted dead last who's now been starter for 5 wins with San Fran.

NFL has LOADS of film on him now as well. Taking less of a gamble possibly than on the flash in the pan early draft guys. Might see some more on the fence guys sticking around due to the NIL.

Wow https://open.spotify.com/episode/406fOiiKMU0ot5AS1AIwve?si=_lSA-vKATgajvSWgis3uqg&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A4rOoJ6Egrf8K2IrywzwOMk

Very early days (first couple weeks) Russian AF strikes and caps very uncoordinated but had giant numbers/tech advantage. UKR air defenses were entirely suppressed on teh ground and were forced to continually maneuver forcing UKR fighters to fly in extremely low to get under RUS fighters. Rest of it explained how much of a shit show the RUS military plan or lack of plan was. No comms and couldn't spell joint. basically this white paper https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/special-resources/russian-air-war-and-ukrainian-requirements-air-defence

Or green flags

Hah. It's required but just ease into it.

$50? You're one hell of a deal finder.

Currently $80 roundtrip london to paris mid next month. Probably can get a bit cheaper if scheduled right.

Lived in UK for 8 years. Was pumped to give trains a go travelling locally and across in Europe. We went north up to scottland and west to wales many times but could never get it anywhere close to worth it cost/time wise. It was ALWAYS much cheaper to fly from Stanstead up to EDI or Aberdeen and could be done from door to door in about 5 hours versus the minimum of 12. We did the Eurostar once to Paris but drove or flew the other times. Eurostar wasn't that much cheaper than flights but was a bit more convenient with the minimal security. I can def see it working for certain city to city connections here and its crazy that it hasn't been done yet. There are lots of cities where the "local" airport doesn't have many non-stop options so a 2 hour car ride can be justified for a cheaper direct flight but then you add in car gas/parking/time and it starts to not be worth it. Connections in that regard I can def see catching on.

Pretty incredible that UKR apparently hasn't lost a single HIMARS yet. Looks like they hit another target the other night with anywhere from 100-500 KIA and another big weapons stockpile.

I think it will be shorter than your projection. What additional forces can they garner and utilize in anything other than the current frontal assaults being conducted? Lots of open source reporting of shell shortages and talk of the shells they are getting (with 2022 manufacture dates) as being complete garbage. Time is not in their favor on buying weapons. They don't appear to have adapted in the slightest. Those who are still around don't appear to have made any progress changing their tactics from the initial invasion and gradual loss of territory on their retreat east. Also, whats going on with Putin? Lots of videos and pictures supporting some type of illness or the results of an illness. Does the war end if he falls out a window or just dies? Ukraine has to make it through the winter civilian populace wise but I don't see anything major happening on that front. What does the Ukraine force strength look like though? I have no idea. I think their support from us and EU countries will only grow due to UKR seeming to be on the right path. I'm basing all of this off of open source intel and guesses. Could be way off but who knows.
