sometimes the best way to win is to flip the board, Bezos just needs to use his power where it counts rather than submit to the rule of his lessers

@GingerSnaps I think he got caught cheating

Money is power, one just needs to know how to use it

Sup HHH

Bezos may be globalist scum but the question in my mind is will he even bother entering court or will he make is future-ex dissapear

I often wonder how accurately people can currently envision what AI will look like in the future, its surprising how poorly people predict future technologies

@Psychedelic Corpse Fucker it's difficult to predict how AI would act as they likely wouldn't behave in any way like organic life

The human brain still has to contend with it's much older parts, AI wouldn't have that issue so it could potentially think in completely different ways to us

in fact the very concept of thinking may be too human for an AI

we will program them to mimic thinking but that's just a facsimile of true thought

Organic brains work via a completely different mechanism than computers do, so the comparison is like looking at how Analog Photo cathode cameras work and how modern digital cameras work, they both have similar end results taking pictures, but achieve that in entirely different ways

chess is much less nuanced than politics

yup, his content was always super milk-toast.

Brutal, I hate waking up early

good luck, payment processors are so over regulated that the start up costs are through the roof

I've never been the early adopter type for new tech, I'll wait until sex-dolls and robots get more advanced

bummer, get some Cold-EEZE if you can they do wonders for a sore throat

its likely not monetized anyway so he's just spreading the good word I guess

@GingerSnaps Brother, looking at your situation from an outside perspective you're far too attached to this girl even though you're no longer together. I know that being lonely sucks, I've been there but this won't fix it.

@GingerSnaps Listen dude it's your life, do what you want but if you expected anyone here to suggest
that you get back with this chick you clearly came to the wrong place

@Trickster everyone is one in a billion, everyone is a unique snowflake but you know something about snowflakes, they're all completely unique but no one gives a shit about that they just want the snow out of the road, fuck snow

@Trickster I was just expanding on your thought with my own words

there's a reason hope was locked up in Pandora's box with all of the evils

hope is the most insidious of evils in my opinion, it leads men to make foolish decisions over and over again hoping for a different result

Marine Corps veteran here, but who doesn't love a good dead hooker story?

nah, they see it as a funny work story I bet

and hookers are't people so their opinions don't count

I've got one from my time in the south pacific though I'm not the best of story tellers

well, I was attached to a MEU (Marine expeditionary unit) basically they get a bunch of marines from different units and different job descriptions and stick them on ships to act as sort of a a quick reaction force for a region. Sounds sexy but in reality it's boring as hell, because as a Marine there's very little to do on ships.

anyway we made port call in the Philippines and anyone who knows about the Philippines knows there are a large amount of "Lady boy" hookers there, not quite as many as Thailand but still a good percentage of them there are not natural females and of those that aren't natural females only a small percentage of them have gotten the surgery downstairs if you get my drift

don't wanna dox myself too much but the 31st

I actually have no Idea how It was all set up, I was just a lowly Lance Corporal at the time so they didn't tell me shit, I wouldn't even be able to tell you what sort of ship I was on

anyway to continue, I spent my time in town drinking and just generally being an ass but not making too much trouble but Marines being Marines a bunch of the grunts went off to find some hookers, one such marine happened to either be too drunk or too stupid to realize the hooker that he chose was packing some extra

long story short after discovering the mixup, mind you this was after already getting a Blowjob he drowned her in a toilet inside the hotel room he was in then grabbed his libo buddy and ran off back to the ship

needless to say this wasn't the crime of the century, the hotel had his name and he was almost immediately tracked down. All the personnel were locked down and not allowed off the ship anymore and he arrested. I don't recall what happened to him but I suspect he's still in the brig or some sort of prison to this day as this was only a few years ago

well that's what happens when you drown a Philippineo lady boy hooker.

most guys just accept the fact that they just got a BJ from a dude and move on with their life, but not that guy

Traps are gay but only if you continue after discovering the trap

nothing's gay if you're wearing boot bands

those little elastic bands that you use to blouse your trousers over your boots

you didn't use those?

maybe it's a Marines thing but we never tucked our trousers into our boots we rolled the cuff up into these little green elastic bands and then pulled them over the very top of our boots

looks very neat and has the added benefit of keeping shit from getting inside your boots

ya, I'm guessing you were in the Army then, I remember a bunch of Marines commenting on how Nasty that looked. Marines are by far the most vain of the military branches

perfect rolled sleeves, perfectly ironed and starched uniforms (despite starch making the Cammies glow under night vision) and perfectly bloused trousers were expected otherwise some first sergeant would chew your ass

well the dress uniforms didn't matter too much because they aren't a combat uniform but Camouflage uniforms have special dyes in them that are meant to not light up under Infrared light but starch ruins that effect

if you starch them, when you view them through nvgs with the IR illuminator on they look like they're wearing a suit made of reflective belts

that's a lie, the military does all sorts of shit with no reason

well Drill instructors also told me that the red stripe on the side of the NCO's and officers pants in dress blues was to represent the loss of officers and NCO's at the battle of Chipolitpec (not sure if I'm spelling that right) when the history books actually say it's because in the 1800's the marine corps was low on money so they bought a bunch of used Army field artillery pants that had a red stripe up the side and I guess they decide they liked them

interesting, I would have expected the navy to follow similar uniform habits to the marines especially after they decided to copy our 8 point covers.

good plan, goodnight brother

ya that stupid blue cammo uniform

I don't get why they didn't go with a solid blue uniform like the coast guard wears if they wanted a blue uniform, though I've heard the blue ones are seldom worn anymore, instead most guys wear the guacamole green ones now

did you wear BDU's on ship then?

oh, gotcha. interesting I'm guessing that's where all the old navy blue coveralls our motor pools used when working on vehicles came from then

I'd always kinda wondered where those came from since the Marine corps had a hard on for Marpat, everything was always Marpat

I'd believe it, atleast it's not as bad as the retarded camo the Army adopted, Issued in massive numbers then realized that it didn't work anywhere so started looking for a replacement

there are still units that wear that garbage universal cammo crap

actually I did some research way back about the Army's trash cammo and found out that they actually held a huge experiment back in the early 2000's to try to develop a future cammo where they had a number of different manufacturers develop patterns and submit them for testing. after the tests were complete the army found two cammos that worked the best but decided the manufacturer that developed them was asking for too much money so they just took the Marine corps Marpat (which is already just a slightly pallet swaped version of Canadian Cadpat) and did a pallet swap to a grey, green, tan color pallet

absolutely, it's like they never learn. They did the same thing when they developed the M-14 rifle which is arguably a great rifle in specific roles but a garbage rifle for mass issue.

M-14's are awesome in specific roles but they should never be issued to every guy, it's labor intensive to maintain and heavy. don't get me wrong they make an awesome DMR but most guys don't need to nor are capable of a 1000 yard shot

you should try out 6.5 Grendel, I just built one and it's a pretty sweet round if a bit pricy

lets just say you either have to be rich or a reloader to shoot it on a regular basis. that said I have a an AR-15 with a Dolos quick detach barrel system that I built so I also have a 5.56 barrel for it

around $15 to $20 for a box of 20 match grade rounds

there's pretty much no mid tier ammo for it but wolf make some shitty steel cased ammo for it though I would never consider feeding that into my precision grade barrel

One thing I've found since going MTGOW though is I have stupid quantities of disposable income so I can afford to splurge on shit like that

no doubt about that, I have no debt and even though I only make $38,000 a year I still have plenty of money in my fun budget after savings and bills

If you want to do it, do it I believe as long as you're vision is correctable to 20/20 you should be fine though don't quote me on that

the main issue guys run into is color vision

talk to a recruiter, keep in mind though the selection process is pretty intense for that job

do you have a collage education already? fighter pilots are all officers so I know there is a requirement for that

well it never hurts to ask a recruiter though I recommend if you can, that you get a prior service guy who knows what's up to go with you because recruiters will bullshit you a lot

flight officers probably do more math than the pilots to be honest though

I was enlisted so I can't tell you what officer life is like but I do know they have a pretty serious selection process for jobs like that so be prepared to be put through the ringer

I was an engineer, so I got to deal with explosives on a nearly daily basis which I loved but keep in mind military life can be grueling at times

My job was a combat arms MOS but much more technical than basic infantry work, lots of math.

Nah, peace time sucks to be in the military

they just find bullshit for you to do when there's no wars to fight

there is a pension, and the benefits look really good on paper but in practice when you need medical attention (which happens all the time because military life is tough on the body) they just give you motrin and tell you to change your socks

state schools are more bang for your buck most of the time

you have to stay in for a long time to get a pension anyway, so I didn't get one for obvious reasons. my time in the Corps did enough damage to my body that I couldn't imagine how bad it would get if I stayed in any longer

the health care in the military isn't even free technically BTW it's considered part of your pay which is why enlisted military personnel are paid below minimum wage

but if you want to do cool military shit and don't mind getting railed out by the green weeny every once in a while there's really no other path to follow

its an expression used to describe the military fucking over its personnel

I just wanted to blow some shit up, I got my wish but the military got their pound of flesh from me

oh, fuck no female Marines, sailors and soldiers are loathsome creatures

I wouldn't touch them with a 31.5 foot pole

it's from the Grinch song

"I wouldn't touch him with a thirty-nine and a half foot pole" though It appears I got the number slightly off

Ya, I never made it past E4 but I have a 0% disability despite having a service related torn ACL, torn rotator cuff, tinnitus and considerable hearing loss (because of the explosions) that said I loved every minute of being a marine especially the shitty parts

I burned down an island off the coast of Cambodia, so I can brag about that

I was a normal Marine so Space Marine is the next logical path for me

I would want to be in the thousand sons like my namesake

Thousand sons bro

my favorite chaos legion the tragic betrayal that lead them to falling to the ruinous powers was such an amazing plot

yes so much yes also look into death of hope

space marine never got a sequel because dispite being a badass game it never gained much mass appeal and cost a shit tone to develope

ya but you were a transformer rather than a gene crafted son of the god emperor of mankind

space marine wins
