100% agree with this..saw a similar trend of lefties buying guns and then immediately getting sucked into the worst firearms training advice that they could find, and completely missing the part where you have to go and start shooting a competition sport (literally any, I don't care if it's steel challenge, trap shooting, or USPSA) and become proficient.
Balancing a coin on your pistol and squeezing the trigger is a terrible drill and just because 100 people think it isn't a bad drill doesn't make it true.
I'm not trying to gatekeep, but the number of leftists who are actually decent at shooting are going to get drowned out by people who picked up a gun yesterday and learned to dry fire this morning.
I saw it happen last time, and I'm sure it will happen again.
This graph is amazing to me because my leadership at my job, during all of 2022-2024 was LAYING PEOPLE OFF and saying "oh it's time to cut costs" while everyone else was expanding. Today, it's not like they're doing the inverse of everyone else and hiring. nope they're still laying people off.
This guy just vibe coded a bunch of slop, based on high quality training data (everyone's code on GitHub, including probably lots of unity projects, godot, etc). It's sort of disgusting to me.
I am vindicated by my choice early in life to get into Battletech and fall in love with the some of the best battlemech pilots and confirmed baddies such as:
I will also note that Battletech has female elementals (infantry that wears power armor) and have had them since the 80s and it's never been a problem.
Honestly it's time to ditch Chudhammer and come play Battletech
I think honestly the navy knows it's a huge floating high value target, and they're not willing to make it even higher value target by putting a nuclear reactor on it. It would need to be a guided missile submarine for them to invest it with a nuclear reactor
Not to nerd out but the inclusion of a diesel powerplant along with a gas electric turbine is directly due to the lessons from the Ticonderoga class. The tico has very poor range because it only has a gas electric turbine and it drinks fuel. Including the diesel is for this new design to have a long endurance cruise and the turbine for all other times (sprinting, war maneuver, powering the lasers and other bullshit, etc).
I believe this also was an issue for the LCS, I think that too was turbine only. A ship designed for close in work on shores and littoral waters that drinks fuel. No ability to stay on station. Ridiculous.
It's honestly the same Democratic political and campaign consultants that keep advocating for bashing the left. They've helped on every single Democratic campaign since the 90s and the dynamics of American politics are such that you can be dead wrong and still win half of the time because of swing voters
Excellent analysis. They kept referring to "the groups" as an impediment in their post-election analysis. You can feel the contempt they have for their voting base
I think the most frustrating part about this is that Fetterman is an extreme case of what Democrats do. They sell out their voters, but usually it's more subtle, and saying that Fetterman is an example of what the Democrats do, allows liberals to just write it off because of the stroke.
