And here’s where I say - what does an executive actually do?

I just see them as a figure head for the people really in charge. We are now focused on dumb ass CEO decisions or announcements instead of the board voting to ship jobs overseas or something else terrible.

Isn’t their government currently illegitimate because they refused to hold elections?

This lets me know you are full of shit. Russia is also a topic of this conversation and the haven’t had a legitimate election in decades.

No.

We get rid of old munitions and equipment.

Companies get rich by replenishing stock with new military contracts.

We get new data that we can use to war game without actually fighting first hand.

You might not think it’s worth it, but the people benefiting do.

I never played Outer Wilds and I don’t know anything about it, but I absolutely love Disco Elysium and Hollow Knight. I might check out Outer Wilds since I agree with your write ups with the other 2.

Thanks for the rec.

Oh great! So someone couldn’t pull themselves up by their bootstraps and now they want a hand-out. I bet this “toddler” doesn’t even pay taxes.

Yeah, a legendary bow. A bow that had magical ammo, so you didn’t have to by any arrows. The hunters thought they were going to have to roll for it, but the GM just gave it to the Rogue for the extra stats. Whole guild ended up breaking up.

Addition to what others have stated. He is in trouble for more than just one woman. There are many claiming, but Cassie was the first (I think) that accused him and got paid to not say anything. That made his civil suit with her go away, but the feds built up a case and busted on human trafficking amongst other things. His old employee has a bunch of recordings of illegal stuff.

I agree and there is for certain known vital pieces that go down. Sometimes other parts go down or a part and the backup won’t work.

The DOD has been trying to save money by lowering the on hand stock of the using unit and having most of what they need at a higher level. That higher level might be off and not able to support.

Haha. This is a good one. They used to (maybe still) not allow 3rd party sellers like eBay, but Amazon has been used for a long time. I’m not sure why one was okay but not they other. Anyway, they would take a big operational hit, if they couldn’t use Amazon.

Say a system goes down during a critical time, either training or a real mission. They need a part that they could order overnight and have it up by morning or maybe sooner if it’s on that Amazon now thing. Or they could wait and try to source it out. Hope you can contact them, depending on the time. A lot of places that make equipment for the government have business hours. Depending on contracts and everything there would be a lot to get into, but the point is buying for Amazon is sometimes the best place to get the item from in a quick manner.

I’m guessing he was referring to the actual practice of a gym doing something like that. I’m sure there is whatever statement in the gym contract that says that they can change access. I wouldn’t know. I just use the gym in my apartment.

In practice, most businesses will work to accommodate you if there is a change like this and you can’t adapt. Someone else mentioned that their gym has an app and it doesn’t work all the time and have to use fobs still. Most managers will work with a customer and take care of the few that need extra attention.

You literally said Yes when he asked that question earlier. We can all read it.

We started exporting our obesity. I remember reading about Australia having a growing obesity problem. A lot of the world loves KFC, other fast food, and sugar infused everything. The bucket of chicken is more iconic to see. Especially when they get sold as an “American Meal” combo.

Those YT “in video ads” on Internet Comment Etiquette is about as high quality as you can make it. I wouldn’t want to skip Erik selling Nord VPN, Raycon, Nobleberry, or anything else he wants to make an ad for.

I am assuming they are adding multiple trips a day. My old bus dropped off elementary, middle, and high school. Some drivers even did after school drop offs. I doubt they mean 2600 buses moving 7 million people in 1 trip.

Depends. Is there a cold front coming through Texas that will freeze the pipes?

It’s the organizing that should scare you. These groups grow comaradarie and start showing up in other areas of daily life to push agendas that should scare freedom loving people. Growing a community of hate while other groups just sit around and think that “it can’t happen here” while attacking each other instead of organizing is what bothers me.

Yeah, but it’s a start. The journey of 1,000 miles begins with a single step. The more we focus on it and talk about it. The more people will demand attention to it. That attention alone might help reign them in, even if a win for the FTC won’t come for a while.

You know, unless we organize and make a 3rd political party that goes more for the people instead of their bosses. I just don’t think that will ever happen, so we got to slow walk it.

I beg to differ. The applicants talking to recent vets or wounded soldiers know that these people could be their future. It is important to know all the possible outcomes, including possible PSTD, death, or dismemberment. Having recruiters that are too disconnected from the human war cost is a disservice, in my opinion.

I think I missed my point in there. They would be more effective when those new soldiers are on the frontline fighting, instead of selling a false image of how easy joining would be. That false sell would result in wasted resources training soldiers that wouldn’t be as effective. Sometimes it’s better to have less people in your unit, when the extra bodies (that were lied to) would cause more wasted time and energy. Time and energy that should be focused on war.
