If it’s not your phone\computer (ex work\government devices) and if you are super paranoid even if it is your phone\computer, always assume someone is always watching and can see\recreate what you are doing.

Yes… I’m occasionally sorry I was born too. Thanks for that.

I mean, you didn’t address anything i said. You don’t understand what “real wars” are. Afghanistan was not a war and there was no way to win, hence any comparison you use to it is rediculous.

What are those drones or those defenses going to do about an naval artillery bombardment? Not high tech missiles, just straight shells hundreds of miles away?

I’m not a fan of either nation at the moment. You are just romanticizing anti America sentiment, which, you do you boo, I disluke them at the moment too.

I’m also going to ignore the Afghanistan in worse shape sentiment. If you think women shouldn’t go to school, be heard or be seen, you are not even worth having a discussion with.

“but America has dug such a hole that not a single other country is coming to their aid.” I mean, we are their with Israel. Not that I like them out agree with what they are doing. But that is a single other country.

" Hopefully you and or your kids are not within a draft able age, because it’s most likely coming if you see what they’re doing with increasing the age of eligibility."

This conflict with Iran would not require a draft by any means. Why would you think it would? Iran reportedly has 610k active duty personnel, while America has 1.33-1.34 million active duty personnel. With the arguable American military tech advantage, if this went to a real war, how? How do you think Iran would destroy them?

Say what you will, Afghanistan wasn’t a “real war” either.

I’m not going to say if we would win or lose in Iran. Again I DONT want to be their. The other major American losses you are mentioning were before the beast that is the American military became a large portion of our spending. The American military industrial complex largely came about in the past 50 years.

When the American military has a uniformed enemy and a target to destroy/apprehend we are one of the best military powers in the world.

Iran for SURE would have home field advantage. But if we went to war home field advantage wouldn’t mean much when we can park our destroyers in your pond, deploy a defense garrison on the ground to protect them and shell the country’s military emplacements to smithereens. Send troops in helos as fast surgical attacks.

The last military operation that we partook in that was a war action and not a peace keeping action to my recollection was operation desert storm. right/wrong or indifferent about being their we know how to do fast attacks against uniformed military. And that is why you didn’t see uniformed enemies fighting in Afghanistan. They used gorilla tactics quite well against us and we didn’t have an answer.

I’m going to be downvoted i know it. I don’t want to be in Iran, I don’t know why we are there.

But, what we are doing on Iran is not even close to a conventional/real war. If Orange Cheeto in charge hasn’t already done to much damage to our military by forcing the good commanders out, and we went to “real war” with Iran, boots on the ground and all. We wouldn’t be losing these planes. But at the moment we are hanging the planes/fighters out to dry with little to no support. So yes, they are going to get shot down. But you can’t call this a “real war”

Angry growl vs questioning growl. Two totally different growls. I’m sure there is a community around here that could go into more detail for you.

I miss the graphics of BDO. I don’t miss the RNG slams

Surely luck is on my side and I can’t miss 10 12% slams in a row. This next one is it! I can’t feel it, use the gear piece your wearing your going to hit anyway!.. Rage quit for 4 days…

They are not able to answer questions or change simply via a software update.

I mean to be fair… that’s the current drive through experience anyway isn’t it?

The LLM is taking the order. Interpreting what people say into that simple text description. Not everyone talks the same or describes things the same. That is i believe where the bulk of the LLM is doing the work. Then I’m sure there is some background stock management and health checks out manages as well

I tried arguing with them that my name wasn’t “Current Resident” it went about as well as expected… lol

I put my girl down a year and a half ago. She was an eight year old rottie that loved life, Loved kids and loved me. She had cancer growing in her brain/snout that was making her angry, agitated and a danger to others. Could I have waited a month or two longer? Maybe, but she wasn’t happy anymore so it was time. I paid for an autopsy because I wanted to know, the cancer was everywhere in her skull/ muzzle taking up 1/5th the brain cavity.

Holding onto her for longer was unfair to the years of happiness she gave me. In the end I couldn’t be selfish and had to let her go. So maybe try that route with your wife? It was the hardest decision I ever made and I cried all the way to the vet and thought about turning around a couple of times.

Do we know if these increased metal tariffs go live now or in April?

According to this article Wednesday is the day

I 100% agree with the sentiment. But if this is the same missile strike I read about earlier no Americans died in this attack, they managed to get to safety in time. Just want people to be aware of that fact.

Do I think this will eventually lead to American deaths and trump having more American blood on his hands yes.

Since when did you need to be thanked for doing the rift thing?

I work in tech and I have a smart home w/ lights, switches, appliances and a controller. They are all on their own automation vlan that will never touch my home network. Sure “someone” is listening and can “hack” some of it. On the small, miniscule chance that happens I will deal with it. Until then the convenience is life changing.

That first article quotes Obama trying to close it. From the sounds of it congress attached keeping the base open as a rider to another defense funding bill. That’s a common tactic I think
