    Sufficiently poor maintenance is a good substitute for sabotage.

    The thing is the Saudis are that bad as "allies". Even when notionally working with us they're working against us (and by us I don't mean US, I mean civilized beings the world over). When compared to Satan himself, Lucifer or Leviathan don't seem like a bad deal, especially when you can play them off each other, because Satan is wrath and very destructive. (Which is a good bit of why I'm not a fan of the US being inflexibly pro-Israel, because it can generate real or perceived hypocrisies that hurt the region).

    That sounds more like the failure mode on an Airacuda than a real plane sane people built.

    If you clone the whole drive and leave it on the same computer it's got real good chances of working just fine. Good luck doing it across computers, but on the same one I haven't heard that much bad news about it. Plus, if you just clone, you've still got the original.

    It's doable if you strip your system drive down to smaller than the SSD and grab some free cloning software. I do not currently have a good idea what's the best cloning software to use, but I think I know a good place to check from people with recent experience (that will likely be tomorrow).

    We were thorough when inflicting the horrors of our society on you.

    Problem is less the whole getting their cruiser group beat up thing and more the whole "and then they just did it without taking the risks and it worked fine" thing.

    Pretty sure that's an allegation that Russia is definitely most certainly involved and supplying from their stocks.

    Okay, it sounded like you were talking about the T-90s being used by the Ukranians rather than against them.
  10. xthetenth
    Pretty sure it's claiming T-90s are getting used against Ukranian forces and mercilessly drubbing them.

    They should have realized that it was the inevitable consequences of trying to force a narrow strait without good intel and the semantics were somewhat superfluous.

    I'm going to use word's features to give me needless ligatures until I can calm down.

    I just noticed that the M50 Reising's wiki article is basically ad copy (I'll spare you lot my hipster US idea). Huh. Weird how people try to sell their pet stuff on wiki.

    Our military industrial complex is being taken over by an aggressively hegemonizing corporate swarm. Somebody convince me the '80s weren't right about the horrible corporatist dystopia the 2000s were supposed to be?

    On the other hand, the battle between shell and armor plate determined who won. It was the tank of the guy where that battle didn't take place.

    Hey now, they haven't messed up that badly since the Eliat. Or is it the "allies" where we really definitely need to keep in mind that they're our coalition partners and not our allies.

    The failure modes on men are pretty destructive all told.

    That's actually a pretty good song.

    It's like tanks designed by people who saw what tanks became. Gotta play a bit more cautiously, but it's decent. The player pool is painful in terms of tiers though. It's basically world of wargame though. The maps are much nicer than tanks, the tanks are not nearly as nice as tanks' though.

    The thing that jumps out to me with those superstrength materials is that it's all good and well how strong one thing of it is (whatever a thing may be), but how do they get turned into something bigger and how does that structure hold together? BTD: Gee I dunno that sounds cool let's do it.

    Sony brings people who aren't up on stage. Where'd the quote come from? Also what was that thing your sig was for a bit?

    And they quickly worked to mitigate it.

    I get sad when video game makers confuse me, a military-fascinated immature manchild with sexually frustrated immature manchildren. So sad. But seriously it is kind of annoying having other peoples' sexuality intrude on you.

    Wonder how big the radar return it kicks up when any spray gets flying.

    Deck's a pretty common term for things that are selections of options to use during a game.
