Yeah, this definitely looks like airdropped chocolate to me bro.

Ah, this reminds the time when cluster munitions were bright yellow, so you could spot them and stay away.
And food aid packages were bright yellow, so you could spot them and easily collect them.
Yeah…
And asbestos. I work in hazardous materials and the amount of things that had asbestos in them is terrifying.
Asbestos carpets, and asbestos-structured paint for fucks sake. Imagine how many peoppe sanded down asbestos paint…
The good life of the 80s?
well, OP seems to be a healthy white straight male in his 20s, otherwise they definitely wouldn’t comment this.
Sorry, I left my magic wand in my other pants…
Me too, but I’m not really at “donating Javelin” levels of wealth.
It’s immensely noticeable on radar. That giant round engine is going to stick out like a sore thumb on radar and IR.
No, you see, this is just how amazing Russian AA missiles are!
Most people don’t want to break the sacred bond of pretending you’re busy, because then next time, they might get caught for doing the same.
People loved living under Soviet rule SO much, we call tankies tankies
Russia is huge, but it’s basically empty too.
And there isn’t any same-day delivery to the front from a Depot in Kamchatka, so the size isn’t very useful when it comes to offensive logistics
What weird snowflake
… buddy, have you tried it? Get up, walk to a mirror and test it. You’ll find that the picture shows you what happens
it was a joking reference to the battle of Khasham. There are very much russians in Syria.
Jackasses will never die out.
This is so weird, because I can imagine both the “my neighbor is a tankie” side of the conversation and the “my neighbor is a magat” side. And they both fucking suck, and I don’t know who to feel worse for…
This but unironically. Society would be SO much better if we just did the whole “gender doesn’t matter” thing that started in the 90s instead of the “be whatever gender you feel like” thing from the late 10s.
You’re on yiffit, so the odds are very much against it.
One of the famous ones is laminar flow in a tube or pipe. There’s a very nice physics formula to compute Reynolds number, and when it’s over 3500, flow is usually turbulent, and below 2000 it’s usually laminar. And anywhere in between? Eh, it kinda depends. Unless there are bends in the tube, then it depends even more. Oh, and when your flow is not in a tube, the values wildly vary even more.
There’s a concept of “angle of repose”, basically at what slope will loosely poured materials sit. There are super complex modern models to compute that, based on grain size and shape. But there’s also a half-page table listing anything from asphalt to coffee beans, which is literally the law in a lot of countries. That table is older than the age of sail in most cases and zero maths went into it.
And then there is the hilarious official ways to determine the characteristics of concrete and asphalt. The flow test, for example includes the highly scientific steps of “pour into a specific cone and poke 25 times with a two by four, then measure the circle on the floor”. This number is then used in several calculations.
During the early occupation of Afghanistan after 2001. Here’s a news article from 2003 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/2912617.stm
Note that that wasn’t on purpose.
