quote:

Frame said the first blast, which occurred June 18 about 100 miles off Palm Coast, Fla., was planned by the Navy “within a narrow schedule that complies with environmental mitigation requirements, respecting known migration patterns of marine life in the test area.”

:sad:

Humanity has much better ways of killing off most of the marine life than some dumb explosions. All of those fish are soon to be dead anyway.

lol the qcs thread about luring people into qcs to post their dumb opinions lured an absolute braingenius to post this in response to the JAV makes up for nanking joke being posted.

quote:

I cannot speak for Kharnifex, so its possibly a blind shot in the dark for them landing on an interesting point for me and intended to be a pure comedy post, who knows.

That said, it came up in part due to conversation of how the CCP enjoys stoking anti-Japanese sentiment as loudly and as often as possible when it suits their needs, and isn't above ambushing American tourists for soundbites. Where the JAV bit comes in is China has an interesting relationship with it despite ostensibly being illegal**, resulting in some very pro-government people during a flare up having to defend getting caught with porn of a Japanese woman as "she is not Japanese, she belongs to the world**".

With that frame, I see a juxtaposition of the endless self-serving double standard China holds to Japan. A demand for eternal never good enough apologies when it suits China to whip up nationalist fervor yet all the same consuming a huge amount of Japan's industry, technology, and cultural products and contorting themselves on that incongruity.

*Similarly a popular show got caught that their background names for "John Q. Public" on whiteboards were all Japanese pornstars

**A very not healthy amount of Chinese dudes my age got the majority of their understanding of sex from Japanese porn and this attitude of their ownership/importance to China isn't rare and imported some uh, quirks, into the populace in terms of expectations from sex

Despite Promises, USS Ford Heads To Shock Trials With 4 Broken Elevators

quote:

The Advanced Weapon Elevators, on the other hand, are an ongoing problem... Technical problems saw the Ford commissioned into the U.S. Navy in July 2017 with zero of the planned eleven elevators. Ford current has two certified and working elevators.

The USS Ford, which includes other technologies such as an electromagnetic aircraft catapult, a new system for landing aircraft, and a new radar, is now more than two years behind schedule and at least 22 percent over budget.

Yeah, the USN had come up in this thread before but it does seem like bloat, corruption, and waste is seriously undermining its operational capacity and the issues are only adding up.

Also, the navy officially gave up on its railgun project.
