Yes, true in certain cases.

Where is the kill switch on a claymore? Or an AR-15? Given that we are only buying token F-35s now, the compromised gear won’t comprise very much of our supply. Any resistance to a us invasion would absolutely have to be guerilla-oreinted, we would be curb-stomped in any typical theatre. Nothing we could use to make any kind of impact would be “modern”.

My my, you do have a singular wit.

And?

Do the right thing. Eventually people will see 2 things: a country doing the right thing and another one engaged in abject hypocrisy and projection.

Categorically: nope.

I’m actually going for the droning-their-fucking-legs-off angle but yeah you fight however your pretty heart wants to.

Oh I’m certain they will be as effective on fat white Americans as they are on the brown people the fat white Americans predominantly use them on. It’s less about who we buy them from than who we point the business end at when it’s business-doin’ time.

Canada needs to arm ourselves. These people are fucking crazy and are gearing up take everything from everyone else.

It’s a good way to teach everyone that the way to deal with America is to stab them in the back as soon as possible, and to make it a killing blow.

Thanks for telling us who you are.

I think sir misunderstands how malleable my hobbies and interests are and completely fails to see where my priorities are. You can’t eat RAM and it will never love you back. It’s almost irrelevant even when it’s not supply crunch’d.

Why not try to use a martyr with some charisma. I mean I know we do not get to pick, but…oh right. I forgot, the problem here is the cause they stand for is deplorable so that probably reduces the amount of attractive candidates for martyrdom.

No, but I can see how clever you must be for doin’ all that noodle-bakin’ critical thinking you’re putting into your thesis here.

I’m actually-factually talking about the friends and neighbors and family I have. The guy working the grocery store checkout. The teacher at my kids school. The girls at at the art center where my kid be volunteers on weekends. The stage director and castmates at my wife’s theater group. Preeeety much anyone I casually interact with. You literally stand out as one of the few exceptions.

Is that not online  enough for ya? Have I touched enough grass to be considered a legitimate data point for your bullshit scorecard? Or are we still huffing selection bias fumes and dancing to the Dunning-Kruger Memorial waltz?

Gonna say you don’t have a finger in the pulse and can’t read the room.

But what does the scouter say about his power level, Vegeta?

Huh Vegeta?! What’s it say!?

And use some soap; agesim is suggestive of a dirty mind full of divisiveness, in need of a good cleansing.

Cool cool.

Now, can it also not persist in the environment for 1000 years after the thing it was packaging has been unpackaged?

FWIW: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_vehicle_drivetrain

Parallel hybrid systems have both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor that can both individually drive the car or both coupled up jointly giving drive. This is the most common hybrid system as of 2016.

It’s definitely no longer 2016, but this is the type of hybrid I am referring to. 2 engines provide power, meaning 2 points of maintenance and potential failure. This was what dissuaded me from buying one and pushed me to full BEV (circa 2020)

IMO No matter which way you slice it, a BEV with its ONE gear has less moving parts, less whirling bits to time with belts, and less complexity. Less to go wrong, less to keep lubricated.

The only advantage I can think of on a hybrid is less weight (so stopping in an emergency or on wet pavement). Where I live the charging infrastructure is dense enough that range is no longer ever an issue.

Apparently though even the fuel savings are exaggerated per this article.

Not to throw shade, but why the fuck would you want to maintain 2 entirely separate power trains. It’s a recipe for extra maintenance costs in my view.

BEV4ME.

Fuck each and every far right nazi scum. Death is far too good for them. I hope wherever they bury this fuck that it’s found out. His remains deserve further disrespect.

Don’t forget the alligator clips and 12v deep cycle marine battery.

It sounds like we are in agreement that examples must be made. A hot stove is a powerful teacher, and seeing a conspecific or two get their fingers burned to a cinder will serve that cause well.
