If you attack it head on you have a very short window of opportunity before it’s past you

So, you have to be accurate. Like we've been doing for hundreds of years with projectiles, even non-guided ones. Check.

if you try from the side you’ll have to be really really good at geometry

So... good like as in a computer doing the math? Check.

And that thing won’t go in a straight line while it’s in enemy range.

Bad news friend, they can't turn for shit due to ground effect, and they can't ascend or descend either. There's a reason these things were immediately abandoned as a viable concept after only 3 years in operation and without seeing any combat.

Same. It loads the page where the tweet would be, then it seems like 2 popups cover it up, both about logging in. I immediately no longer care about viewing what I wanted to see, and close the window.

Sure, in a dead heat and as long as there aren't any big waves. Also, you do realize that it's possible to attack this thing from other directions than directly behind it while it's at full speed, right?

I would guess that it would survive about as long as it would take a $200 fpv drone to collide with one of the engine arrays. Then nautical drones would do their thing to turn it into an artificial reef.

For a second I thought you meant never showed up as in your pihole can't print to it. I was mildly surprised when my pihole automatically recognized and configured my brother printer on my network. But now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever seen it black holed in my query log either!

Honest question: How do you deal with extreme cold and/ or rain when biking to and from work? I'm interested to learn more.

I'm with you, but I can't imagine any other outcome than an increasingly large group of sexually-frustrated men taking this out on women / men / animals around them. Particularly as other porn sites follow suit.

What's worse, I imagine this is either by design or a very welcome byproduct. In other words, one step closer to y'all qaeda.

I had a similar experience. I was giving away a wooden table top organizer free on CL. Some guy said he wanted it, so I put it outside by our front door and said he could just grab it once he got here. When he arrived, he took it, then hung a bag of goodies on our front door knob, shouted "thank you!" and left. When we checked it out, it was full of hand-made organic soaps, bracelets, and other random trinkets. He even wrote us a note and said thanks, he makes these things and sells them at farmers markets, and to have a good day. It was such an unexpected and cool thing to do, and so much more pleasant than trying to go through the gauntlet of selling that organizer for $20.

Death to America

That's a wrap, friend. I called you out on this right at the beginning. There's no point in further discussion.

Do you… Think that list is authoritative?

Do you... want to provide more authoritative sources? Or even just start with one? So far you've cited zero.

Remember, your original assertion was "the US is still the king of genocide." Assuming your vague phrase of "king of genocide" means total number of people killed, then show an authoritative source that proves it, then we can talk.
