Autoloader is both advantage and disadvantage at the same time. You don’t need another crew member, but the mechanism proved itself to be deadly when tanks get hit.
The weight itself is a huge factor though. Modern tanks get to absurd numbers where it’s getting difficult to operate them at all.
That’s why I wrote “new/old design”. T-72 and 80 are vastly improved, but still based more or less on design of T-54.
How is that any surprise on modern battlefield? Compared to the situation decade(s) ago, tank is just a prey with so much real time reconnaissance drones and long range precision weapons around.
From what I’ve read the main difference between tanks like Abrams/Leopard 2 and old designs like T-72/80/Leopard 1 is that once modern tank is knocked out/damaged/destroyed it doesn’t necessarily mean all the crew members are dead.
America… Fuck you! Classic.
Unless you’re European. Then driving manual is considered basic life skill like riding a bike.
I’ve read interesting conspiracy, that Tunguska incident overlaps exactly with Nicola Tesla’s attempts to wireless transfer of energy. Was an interesting idea and read, even though very unlikely to be based on real event.
Because they’re grounded.
As a dumb guy this would give me no clue. My 2c, if you’re interested in him, just tell him. Plain, straight, no bullshit around. Don’t try to obfuscate it or hide it in double meaning phrases, be as direct as possible.
If I can generalize, we guys are dumb idiots that usually can’t read what women hide between lines. We need it in simple sentences, ideally in written form to be really sure we understand it right.
Vin Diesel style, nice!
Well, then there’s another stupid game… “Hey hon’ do I look fat in these jeans?”
Because it is, right? Right?!? When your car brakes makes weird noises you replace them to fix it and stop whining. Why doesn’t this work with women too? /s
It’s not that it’s that important, but what I saw from Fairphone 1 or 2 (I don’t know which model exactly, maybe even 3) was really underwhelming. Not that my current phone makes epic photos, otoh it cost me about third of a Fairphone. Their mission is great and that’s why I’d consider phone from them. I wouldn’t mind slower CPU or less storage for my needs, but not improving camera from my current phone doesn’t make sense for me to switch.
How is camera on that? I remember earlier Fairphones were pretty bad in this regard, which was a deal breaker for me.
Can it be biological? I’m approaching 40 and I’ve been asked to show ID buying alcohol until I got fed up and grew some beard… I don’t use this kind of products, I’m happy to live with just soap and shampoo and when it’s reeeeeealy hot outside and I just need to go out for long period of time I use whatever sunscreen I can find.
If it’s one of those race car 6 point belts it’s pretty much impossible.
Technically it is. Producing it gives you feeling of achievment (depending of the product size) while consuming costs you your dignity.
I remember playing a few games at my cousins 286 when I was like 6 or 7. There were Accolade F1 and Moto GP, Zany Golf and one more game I just can’t remember the name. Its gameplay was a bit similar to pacman - narrow paths with obstacles and I think enemies chasing you, you played as a boy and there was even raft across a creek and I believe there was grizzly bear involved somehow. But the name? No idea…
One from MMO. I got accepted to a guild and after some time I hear somewhat familiar voice in voice channel. Turned out it was guy from the same village I grew up in, I knew him and he was my sisters classmate.
One from RL. I went to second biggest city in my country and accidentally bumped to my friend (also elementary school classmate) at random street whom I haven’t seen for years.
Yes, too much of them. That’s why I haven’t been there yet myself. It’s too touristy nowadays.
Hello fellow universal donor. I’m blessed with the same blood type, so I donate the blood when I can at my local hospital. Usually 3x a year.
At first there was not much thought behind it, as both my parents went there too. When I turned 18 they just asked: “Do you want to go too?” And my answer was obviously yes, because why not? It was day off school, after all.
Now it’s just automatic. Since I only donate in my local hospital (small town, 15k people) I believe my blood gets to help people. They don’t pay for it, it’s volunteer, organized by red cross. They used to cover bus ride, but lately switched that for “food stamp” instead. We also get juice, coffee and snack once donated. The good part is, it’s still day off work where I live.
