It depends

Not all weapons have a burst mode. Often though, militaries prefer controlled bursts of full auto, but it depends on the role and weapons system. Machine gunners are more likely to go full hog than a rifleman for example, but that’s assuming that all soldiers do the most optimal choice in any given situation, which just isn’t true.

In my 25 year career, this is possibly the worst thing I will report…

Oprah still exists.

We’ll be back when more information comes out about this horrible situation.

Virgin California rent control vs Chad New York rent control

um actually rent control (alone) historically has made housing worse, reduced housing quality, and raised prices 🤓🤓🤓

That’s if you mean price capping by “rent control,” if there is anything else, I don’t have anything to say about any other type of rent control, as I don’t know much about those.

This is really nitpicky. When there is war, there is anti-war protest.

I like Will Wood, his stuff has been described as “evil jazz”, but it ranges from calm and soothing singer-songwriter type stuff to a full upbeat jazz band with chaotic composition and arrangement. I find his lyrics insightful, but they are also often quite abstract.

Cute girls doing cute things have some nice tracks, but many of them feel a bit the same-y.

The Vienna Clarinet Collection has great covers of classic clarinet songs, but classical and jazz.

I couldn’t choose one, so here are a few jazz bands I like: Francis Coppieters, Loftys Comet, T-Square, Micheal Lowerstern, Archie Shepp, Sons of Kemet, and Mansur Brown

Are ya a smart fella, of a fart smella?

This talking point doesn’t make sense to me because feminine and masculine voices sound different, so it would make sense that some aspects maybe annoying one a feminine voice and not a masculine voice, and vice versa. Also, I don’t think that some of the source of annoyance comes from the voice itself, but it’s cultural association. The reason why it is so annoying to me is because I associate it with vanity and celebrity worship (probably because of the Kardashians, couldn’t tell you which one as I try to avoid them at all costs).

Counterpoint, requiem for a pizza

Vox, ig. Their videos are the video essay equivalent of a forgettable action flick.

Arguments aren’t about winning. You will almost never convince someone your arguing with. Treat it more like a chance to better understand and strengthen your beliefs through putting them up to criticism and an opportunity to learn about a view you disagree with. I’ve found I have gained much more from arguments doing this. You can find flaws in your argument faster than doing it yourself, and you can fully understand the opposite opinion, it’s line of logic, assumptions, and where it comes from, to truly understand why it is wrong. And you never know, that seed of doubt planted by a good argument could eventually change your or your opponents mind.

This is why online arguments suck. The other person often won’t use critical thinking and just spout the same points regurgitated from their own little world, along with some logical fallacies to spice it up.

I was put under for wisdom tooth removal (wasn’t complicated, but small military clinic things differently than civilian hospitals)

I remember seeing the iv go in the waking up to being told to breath. (Side-effect of the anesthesia, not scary in the moment, but you do need to consciously breathe). I regained memory right away. I got up after I was cleared, about 20 minutes. My legs were a bit noodly. I walked out to the car and talked with my dad all the way back.

Your might be different because I’m am young and quite healthy. But my advice is to try not to panic. It makes it easier for everyone involved, and if you die to some freak accident, you die in peace :)
