  1. Looks pretty similar, visually, to the BAC TSR-2. (aka England's Arrow)
  2. It takes a village to build a wall around gun owners to keep China from laughing at us.
  3. Armored Commander has been updated to 1.0, the final release version barring any bug fixes or another developer forking it. So now's the time to play it. IIRC the developer posted on reddit a couple months ago that they plan to eventually start developing a Armored Commander 2 because they feel overly constrained by the Patton's Best rules.
  4. Two letters off from being electable.
  5. Bell was messing around with them as far back as the 50s. There was also tiltwing research, probably seemed more promising at the time. (cue Canadian Mike Sparks fantasizing about Arrows with rough runway kits being supplied by CL-84s)
  6. One Punch Man isn't really a satire though. It's more of a parody where pretty much everything is played straight and Saitama acts as a foil to all the standard superhero stuff. I can't actually think of any specifically satirical anime off the top of my head. Maybe Humanity Has Declined, and OreTwintails to some extent. Helck is good.
  7. Damaged Marco Rubio rushed to Koch Industries sentionaut repair facility after trench-coat wearing Jeb Bush makes threatening gestures and tells attendees that "after today, Carson won't be the only one here who knows what brains look like" before opening fire during debate. Secret Service says overwork, mocking Onion articles suspected as cause for recent "increasingly unhinged" behavior. When reached for comment, Donald Trump's campaign only stated that this was "yet another false flag against White America by the Obama administration."
  8. A interesting article about Iran's burgeoning game industry. http://www.polygon.com/features/2016/1/14/10757460/the-game-industry-of-iran
  9. Clearly not because the Russian MOD has said they're not using cluster bombs in Syria, and would they ever lie?
  10. I see they've hired Ted Cruz to do target selection.
  11. Probably still better than the Magal. (which, IIRC, was a M1 Carbine that blimped out to 8lbs after hurting it's back, and had polymer furniture that supposedly melted from repeated firing) And also the sheet metal construction.
  12. Hillary has already said she'd be "thrilled" (IIRC) to appoint Obama to the Supreme Court if there was a open seat. So theoretically, delaying until the next president is elected could hilariously backfire on the Republicans.
  13. It's like somebody stuck a M60 upgrade package on a T-72. http://www.kampfpanzer.de/vehicles/t-72 Oh, no wonder.
  14. "Airport" seems too kind a word for it. 2011: 2014: http://gstdh.gospmr.org/news.php?extend.772.1
  15. First trans-Atlantic flight by a communist-built stealth fighter.
  16. Trump and Hillary are cut from the same cloth. They're both "I've got money, you stupid little people don't need to worry about things" types, except Trump has embraced the populist tactic of "I will say whatever gets me attention and votes." He's donated thousands of dollars to the Clinton Global Initiative, supports "reasonable restrictions" on "assault weapons", donated to Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel's campaign, and didn't donate money to Republican political campaigns before 2012.
  17. The Problem of Space Travel (PDF, 7mb), (Higher quality 26mb version) The Slovenian engineer Herman Potočnik's 1928 book on space travel. Apparently had a good amount of influence on Oberth and Korolev.
