  • Most recent was 3 mobiks fleeing an FPV, FPV struck the middle one. He flailed around on groud for a few seconds before tapping his temple several times before curling up so his comrade could push the AK to his temple and fire.

    Other videos have shown injured mobiks who were hit by grenades or fully suppressed with no where to go popping a grenade and shoving it inside their vest to commit suicide. Usually UA drone operators conduct second strike on survivors as a mercy kill when there is no support to recover the casualty and too far away to capture, but seems a lot of Russians are going immediately to suicide or begging other soldiers to frag them, like they know there is zero chance of proper recovery or medical assistance to be found.






  • Comey didn’t inform the public. He informed congress who then leaked it to public and Comey only came forward to adress the media after they spread the leak.

    Admittedly he should have also informed congress that Trump was also under investigation for colluding with a foreign state with credible evidence against him, but the FBI won’t reveal ongoing investigations unless Congress orders them to.


  • While she’s not free of blame for losing, the primary opposition party candidate colluding with a foreign power to manipulate the election definitely had more of an effect on the result than anything she did. DNC emails poisoning the progressives support for her while Comey’s investigation into being made public (because of Republicans leaking it) eroded away the support of independents and undecided voters.

    In an alternate world whete the RNC emails got leaked and Comey’s investigation of Trump got leaked to the public and there is no way Trump wins and likely is in handcuffs before Jan 20 2017






  • I’ve got it on ultra settings and have never noticed a frame rate drop. The game is around 4 years old and has a number of bugs, Valve kind of just abandoned it despite it being one of the flagship VR experiences. The software not recognizing a CPU that came out 2 years after launch and perhaps a good six months since it’s been updated isn’t a huge surprise.






  • Land usage is what makes nuclear the most ecologically sound solution. Solar and wind play their part. But for every acre of land, nuclear tops the chart of power produced per year. And when you’re trying to sate the demand of high density housing and businesses in cities, energy density becomes important. Low carbon footprint is great for solar and wind but if you’re also displacing ecosytems that would otherwise be sucking up carbon, its not as environmentally friendly as we’d like.


  • If you calculate the cost of nuclear and include that you need to store the waste for thousands of years i

    This hasn’t been true for decades.

    High Level Nuclear waste, aka spent fuel, can be run through breeder reactors or other new gen types to drastically reduce their radioactive half-life to decades and theoretically years with designs proposed in the last few years. Only reason reactors don’t do this is lack of funding and demand for such things, the amount of high level waste produced is miniscule per year. And there are theories proposed already that could reduce ot further but nuclear phobia pushed by the oil lobby prevents proper funding and RnD to properly push those advancements to production.
