Intentionally contracting with Mugabe for milk, buying up water right in drought zones… when I was growing up my mom taught me why we would never have Nestlè products in the house. Decades later I still don’t. They are one of the most cartoonishly evil companions outside the fossil fuel sector.

When East Germany started falling apart the Stasi lacked widespread access to shredders or incinerators so they took to ripping up documents by hand. Computer advanced made it possible later on to scan and reconstruct the documents.

One thing I wondered was how our local milsurp store had newer Russian stuff than the junk being handed out to the poor sods heading into Ukraine. The answer is as obvious as it is hilarious.Varusteleka posted:Army surplus is sometimes available from dead or undead regimes, like the DDR or the Soviet Union. The Soviet stuff is usually "surplus", meaning it's either from some ex-ComBloc warehouse, or purchased in Russia from an army base quartermaster with loose morale, by a person who knows someone, who knows someone. The Russian army never officially sells any of its property. https://www.varusteleka.com/en/article/army-surplus-how-it-works/61536

Burning is easy for bulk destruction, but you generally do it outside and you need to babysit it for both fire safety reasons and to make sure everything gets stirred up and thoroughly burned, not just scorched up like a good pirate map or Dungeons and Dragons tome prop. Local fire department sometimes gets mad about burn permits, which really sucks if your secret shredder is broken. Leads to sneaking around to burn things in areas where the fire marshals won’t find you.

Hyrax Attack! posted:For sure, I'd assume there are tons of ultra-valuable previously secret items flowing in NATO's hands that aren't as large or photogenic, probably lots of high ranking officer and technical staff captured too. On a related note there was an NYtimes article about how tens of thousands of IT young workers were leaving Russia which are exactly the group of workers most nations absolutely would want to keep around to remain competitive. The Allegro train from Russia to Finland is still running and some of the shifts have been at full capacity. Many of the Russians interviewed have told reporters that they will take the train to Finland and then fly elsewhere to get away from Russia.

The key to a successful burn barrel is a heavy but well ventilated lid and a long pipe coming tangent out of the bottom with a leafblower at the end. If there's smoke for the FD to see you're doin it wrong.

I tried burning leaves in the fire pit last summer and it was such a loving pain in the rear end to keep it from going out, and I can't find any tips online because all the articles yell at me for doing it and I'm already ignoring that It's legal where I am though so the FD isn't an issue at least

I got to play with a hard drive shredder, that was fun. Absolutely required earpro though holy poo poo. Still, bake 'm in the degausser then giggle a little when a whole hard drive gets tossed in to a big grinder. Not just little dinky laptop hard drives either, full size ones. Those things are built more solidly than I first thought.

maffew buildings posted:actually the unarmored vehicles are better because they are quicker and have greater mobility Was listening to an Unconventional Soldier podcast and they were interviewing someone who was in New Zealand artillery that was deployed to Vietnam. He mentioned the Australian/New Zealand soldiers (they would be grouped together, I know they are different countries) tended not to wear body armor or helmet as the armor was sweltering and the helmets stood out in the jungle even if twigs were attached. Just thought of that as I guess they would get questions about why they seemed to sent into combat without helmets. Also he didn't think much about the effectiveness of napalm but was a fan of shells fused to air burst.

When someone complains about uptiering in WT, my go-to example is the presence of T-34/85s in the inventories of WP countries reserve units into the Eighties, and the Sherman not leaving the inventory of some Western nations -- including Canada-- into the Seventies.

Push all the leaves to the curb on the dedicated burn day and torch them on the brick roads while the neighborhood kids were on hose detail. The fire trucks would roam the streets on burn days. In the country, we'd just dump them in the burn barrel with the trash. We burnt everything out there.

I got sent to do shredder duty one time. A good quarter of a Quonset hit filled waist deep with paper that needed shredding. They didn’t want the shredders to wear out prematurely so most of us spent the two hours there tearing the corners with staples off.

Worth bearing in mind that helmets and armor being bulletproof is a fairly recent development.

I got to do this on transfer hold in TTF KB, they went to digital for all their TM'S, so we shredded tens of thousands of pages using a shredder that operated like a wood chipper, it was always fun to see how many pages you could jam down it before it threw the belt.
