Thanks comrade Care-Comrade

Good luck to you too.

Just lost my job. Though I think it's a blessing in disguise. Last few months at work feels like I'm slowly killing myself. Going to take a month of rest or two, work on those personal game projects I never had time to complete, do some art, go out and meet some old friends. Saved up enough cash so I'm not too worried about the immediate future, but finding another job will suuuuuck.

By believing that eventually people will be so fed up with how bad things have gotten and start a revolution.

I'm not an accelerationist though.

Wow, never knew this. Always just thought MTL was a pretty practical "stop-gap solution" so you can having something readable early and at least understand some of it before someone does a "real translation". What's their reasoning?

I just checked out this guy's posts, guy's amazing. Why wasn't more of their stuff posted here?

What if the input is negative

Exactly why The Wand of Gamelon and Zelda's Adventure are the superior games.

Nahh, that doesn't work. ASML for example, is based in the Netherlands. The Amerikkkans just placed sanctions on "products using US technologies and patents"(which applies to like 99% of the stuff made in the world) instead.

Sweet?

I don't believe you. You don't look happy. At all.

The video of course. CIWS is literally built for those. I don't think it's simulated at all in the video. But once again I think the 054A only had a single one of them? So maybe it wouldn't have mattered much.

Yup. How the thing started felt pretty realistic. Not without precedent, cough Iran Air Flight 655 cough

Can't believe I watched the whole thing, god the entire video is so... masturbatory.

  • PL-15, literally the newest A2A missile ever fielded and a significant kinematic advantage over AIM-120. Nope, can barely score two hits with a 20 missile salvo. Also always launched from max range to minimize chance to hit I guess.

  • PL-12, estimated to be equal to AIM-120C. Scored like 1 hit after a 100 something missile salvo.

  • AIM-120D, don't ever misses, downs dozens upon dozens of aircrafts while barely taking losses. "Once again proves the united states's advantage in missile technology".

  • Evasive maneuvers against modern A2A missiles: If the F-18s do it, it always works, 98% effectiveness against anything. If the flankers do it, it never works. They might as well be flying straight, would have the same results.

  • Missile salvo of 30 sea skimming cruise missile toward a carrier: All intercepted, no problem.

  • A small salvo of Harpoons, pretty much the most obsolete ship to ship missile still in service, okay the 054A made a valiant effort but can't intercept them all. Also the CIWS can do nothing against a subsonic target.

  • DF-21D. From the late 2000s and highly experimental. Not perfected until DF-17 and 26 from recent years. Functions flawlessly at max range and we only lost the carrier due to this wunderwaffe.

  • Okay we lost but we are against overwhelming odds also we intentionally placed multiple handicaps on ourselves. And we still had an exchange ratio of like 1:50.

  • Everyone in comments: OMG this simulation is so accurate! But as a navy man here we would've never had those handicaps and we would've totally wreaked havoc on their obsolete military guys.

This thing had the plot of a top gun movie but is presented like a simulation done to the last detail. Just... strange. Gives off a big "elite waffen SS against soviet human wave attacks" energy.
