redleader posted:back in the day, they attached nukes to everything they could get their hands on Waaay back in the day, they knew that missiles were the future of air-to-air combat but they couldn't get this 'guidance' thing to work reliably. So they said "gently caress it", stripped out the unreliable guidance systems, and just put a loving nuke in the tip. You shoot it sort of vaguely nearish your target and let the blastwave do the rest. The Lone Badger has issued a correction as of 04:02 on Aug 18, 2020 |

To me the evidence seems to indicate that we are already being tortured, right now. Edit: can you explain the last four years without invoking some malevolent deity?

The Nastier Nate posted:Yes that’s true but neither of those things have anything to do with what the magic mirror says. It is entirely trivial to change what price an item scans at. But you need to change the advertised price just as quickly and fluidly, because if the scanned price is higher than the displayed price (on the shelf) you are in legal hot water.

Thanatosian posted:I don't know how true it is, but I've been told that brands frequently pay grocery stores for prime shelf placement. That would strongly incentivize them to want to stock the brands paying them the most, I would think. This is absolutely true. You have to fight and pay for your facings.

Real hurthling! posted:social media credit Kinda. Like, if our algorithm tags you as an 'influencer' with lots of connections then obviously we want to get our branded product in your hands so we gotta undercut the competition. But if it says that you just come off a ten-hour shift then you're probably feeling pretty desperate for a drink and will pay a bit of a markup...

Frosted Flake posted:In the Canadian Artillery, there's a tradition to drink Gunner's Punch, which has either black powder or propellant in it. It's not a big deal, just tradition and a rite of passage. Wasn't there a french gunner who got heavy metal poisoning after drinking wine from an artillery piece?

Screaming Idiot posted:Nah, that's just good advice. If you are white and there is a black person nearby then by the time the cops get to you their bloodlust may gave been sated enough to allow for a brief window in which you can safely interact.

CodfishCartographer posted:I love how everyone is universally making fun of Facebook's new name (Meta, sadly it isn't "Meat") - I haven't seen a single person online say anything good about it. Everyone thinks the name is dumb, and everyone thinks the logo looks awful. But an executive likes it so that's how it is. I am nonetheless wholly committed to calling the company Meat for the next few months.

FFT posted:nah, but you can make a directed microwave gun (relatively) easily HERF can be defeated by a metal casing or by hardening the electronics. I do recall a story of a russian plane whose flight electronics shut down when it got target-locked by one of the biiiig american naval radars, but the next generation of planes didn't do that and we're obsoleting the generation after that atm.

If I've got my physics correct your feet will also stop in place, meaning you pivot and power-drive your face into the pavement with the force of leverage.
