Dang, man, that sucks. But anyways, good news, these guys should be getting honorable discharges which grants them full access to VA benefits.

If their condition doesn’t improve within a year following a four-step treatment plan, Marines with PFB may be discharged with an honorable discharge for “incompatibility with service” at their commanding officer’s discretion,

You could just read the article, it’s in there.

Now, I’ve read that horses were native to the Asian continent and migrated elsewhere, eventually to the Americas. However, I was at the San Diego Natural History museum last night and they had a display that claims the opposite, that horses are native to then migrated out of the Americas.

*37 seconds of Wikipedia browsing did teach me that native horses went extinct in North America about 8,000 years ago, then were later reintroduced.

A turn out of 83%?! Impressive.

Heal. Learn. Dust off and get back out there.

You’re telling me the purpose built air superiority fighter can out fight the multi-role strike-fighter? That’s wild and who’d of thunk!

Except only one of those systems depends on the exploitation of the working class, ya know, your breeding live stock. Only one of those system destroys a work life balance. Only one leaves the population with little free time and shrinking resources with which to have and raise a kid. Japan is past, and the US is passing, the tipping point. Society may deem it necessary but the potential parents recognize it as untenable.
What happens when the orphan crushing machine has no orphans?

RDR (any of them) is not cosplay, it’s an interactive movie, a high tech pick your adventure book. Cosplay involves going outside. You can’t play paintball in your underwear on your couch. Well, you could but your living room is going to suffer.
It’s like Google Street view of Vegas versus actually visiting the casinos. It’s not the same.

But it’s not Westworld is a theme park where you cosplay; like Disneyland but you get to be a character. Video games are more like interactive movies. It’d be like saying paintball is the same as Call of Duty. One is much more interactive. It’s too much of a stretch, it’s too broad.

Yeah, this person has never seen Westworld, the show or movie, or they completely missed the plot.

Hypothetical poor people? You think people don’t repair their own cars?
People can’t afford to defend themselves in courts now. So, now you’re saying they also have to deal with an appeals process? So, not only is a vehicle value approach short-sighted its also onerous.

But that’s ignoring certain aspects. If some blue collar fella had spent his free time and money fixing his dad’s old Camaro, a car dad bought for 4,000. Now it’s still well maintained, numbers matching, original paint, etc. now it’s worth 30,000, 40,000 maybe.
Then we have some other c-suite exec in a Tesla of similar market value.

Parking fines based on vehicle value is going to penalize one person much more than the other. Fines should be based on income or total net worth, not the value of a particular piece of property.

That was difficult to type with sticky BBQ fingers.

Dammit, you stop that.

Don’t you put my name on that disappointing hot leaf water.

There was a time where the tag line for Dark Souls was “Prepare to Die”

That’s a neat fun fact, but I didn’t buy Dark Souls, known for its difficulty, I bought Elden Ring, notable for its beautiful open world and complex meandering story.
Beating Malenia’s ducky dance or chasing the Elden Beast around the arena for half an hour is not as interesting as all the questions created by the multiple stories and characters in the world. Or how Marika has betrayed or been betrayed. How Godfrey was cast aside only to be recalled when The Order needed protecting. Or how Godwyn pollutes the world above his carcass.
No part of the story will be diminished if the player is given a slight edge in combat. The combat often isn’t even that fuckin good, it’s just pattern memorization.
Some of you try hards are just, ugh, go back and sit down on your shit bucket. The rest of us are trying to have fun with our video games.

What do US politicians have to do with Iceland issuing the permits to an Icelandic company?

I had an FTR 1200 S. Put sport bike tires on it. Regret selling it.

I simply cannot get revanced to even download to my phone, and I’m not smart enough to troubleshoot it.

You mean, quite literally what Saudi Arabia is asking for?

To be fair, you don’t know what you’re talking about.

1, Hamas is a political party, literally voted into power. Not all members would be militia.
B, Even if the man was of the militant arm, in full uniform and battle-rattle, killing a surrendered foe is murder and a war crime.

This coming from my experience as a Marine having acted in war zones in Iraq and Afghanistan, that were occupied by many civilians and combatants.
