Lol.
Shows how little you know.
In the military, shit isn’t up for debate. You do as you’re told. It is very much black and white.
(Well, from some exceptions we don’t need to get to because you’d never reach the level where one has to utilise their own brain.)
edit this excludes warcrimes obviously. ALL soldiers EVERYWHERE are mandated to refuse orders that would lead to warcrimes. (how they’re taught what are warcrimes is a different matter entirely)
When you’re a soldier you don’t really have agency over the morality of what you do, aside from being technically allowed to protest against committing war crimes.
So no.
You just generally hope the government of the military you’re serving is makes the moral call.
What you’re thinking of is a violent psychotic vigilante.
HMD, Human Mobile Devices. Afaik a lot of them are former Nokia. Or it’s a light rebrand and not a new corp. Dk. Some connection though
I myself eat venison, moose and reindeer. Sometimes horse when it’s off-season for hunting, but that’s kinda janky as it’s not really game, but the incentives for “farming” horses don’t really exist so…
Anyway, my local butcher’s has some frozen 'roo. I’ve had some on a pizza when drunk once, but don’t really recall it that well for my BAC was kinda high. I do remember feeling a tad absurd eating a pizza with kangaroo on it while a guy rode past on a unicycle. I’m not imagining that, although I may have also been high at the time.
Anyway, my point is how’d you compare 'roo to beef in texture and taste?
I hated lamb for instance (and generally don’t buy it because the morality is horrible, just had a chance to taste and didn’t like). Venison, moose, reindeer, horse, all awesome. Reindeer most gamy, moose second, then venison and horse on a pretty similar level. All really lean usually.
Makes sense, thanks.
No cloth can protect you from strong wind.
lots of layers and the outermost as leather, is my go-to. But yeah, wind is a bitch. I live in SW Finland, on the coast of the Baltic Sea, at the sort of “outernmost” part of continental Finland in the part where the Baltic Sea makes that sort of Y-shape.
If you just go 50-100 km inland, the weather is way different. You get nice calm winters. Here? It’s wet and freezing all the time in the winter, with winds raping your face. It’s like tiny ice crystals sand blowing your face. I won’t have a single bit of skin exposed when I bike to the store in the winter. Sometimes maybe a part of my face depending on how bad the goggles fog up depeding on the scarf(ves) I’m wearing.
But if I had like 5000e to spend on outdoors gear, none of that would remotely be an issue.
The saying is basically from my army days. As a Finn, we have conscription, so pretty much all males go (and quite a decent part of females as well) [and I’m using “male” and “female” and not “man” and “woman” because that’s how the goverment would look at it despite your personal gender identity]. And learning the proper way to gear up is a large part of the military service in Finland.
One night I spent in -40 outside (no need for F or C they converge at that temp). One night I spent sleeping in a tent that I wouldve drowned in had I slept face down. Shit like that. Although you can’t really do anything when there’s just too much water. Multiple layers and keeping dry is key.
But yeah tldr I prefer a leather outerlayer. Proper leather jacket will keep the wind out. Although usually they’re not designed to cover all of you, so you’ll need good gloves, scarf, and something to counter the wind through the zipper.
I mean our wind speeds are not like in America I don’t think The record gust recorded in my local area is 41.6 m/s (approximately 93 mph) I think. But dammit my windows used to bang like crazy when I lived some 100m above sea level in a place from which I could literally see the harbor in Turku. And the people who owned it were cheap cunts who didn’t remodel it after I moved out. (I had a thermometer in my kitchen which topped out at 50C and it hit the top. I had candles in my kitchen melt. and they weren’t in direct sunlight.)
No such thing as bad weather, only insufficient/bad gear/clothing.
I’m genuinely too fatigued to figure out the logic behind this brainfart.
Can someone eli5 pls
and party on dudes
This is why punctuation matters.
It’s the difference between helping your uncle Jack, off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse.
It’s genuinely just business.
Legalise all drugs and this all goes away.
There’s no Al Pacino’s shooting up the streets since the prohibition was lifted. Weirdly alcohol companies which can rely on the law don’t find a need to take a Thompson to their business opposite’s offices.
Whereas the Sinaloa cartrel does. They can’t just let shit go. You’ve seen drug shows. (There’s genuinely so many it’s annoying.)
Cowardly tactics
I remember once reading that having one beer and then changing to water would be a good rehydration strategy.
And I definitely believe it. Feels like that anyway. But.
Oh man I’d like a cold beer.
It doesn’t have a corresponding wavelength in the spectrum of visible light, but as we perceive it to be there and have a name for it, it doesn’t really matter that there’s no specific wavelength it corresponds to.
By that metric abstract things likely love, justice, duty, honour, could be argued to not be real either. Can’t touch them or there’s no corresponding physical thing in the world to measure them.
So hiding the fact they use Palantir, not hiding their work by using it?

Thus suffers from the same problem “Adolescence” did; the writing and role is believable enough and the actor looks like they could be as despicable… but then you somehow don’t believe the actor to be that big of a cunt.
Joffrey doesn’t suffer from that, Jack Gleeson is such a brilliant actor I never doubted he could be such a massive cunt. But I know he isn’t. But he made me believe it.
Like Eddie and the kid in Adolescence both have too much humanity showing through.
Now that you mention, yeah, he does.
Yes, I am also human, thus my humour.
