My wife got me a drone for an early Christmas present. Been flying it and I'm scared it'll kick off another string of expensive hobbies. Also why the hell is DJI so ahead of other drone manufacturers. So if the US bans DJI, I'd have to build my own or pay more for less.

I bought my parents iPhone 16 pros since their phones are getting old (not really they have Pixel 6s). They're Asian so even though I put them on pixels, they clearly want iPhones. Hope this will get them through for 5+ years. But I know if I don't upgrade them, I'll never hear the end of, my phone is slow, my phone is hot, my phone can't take good photos.

My mom takes so many photos on her phone and always complains about the pixel phone, however IMHO pixels take better photos than iPhones. So either she'll complain or she'll complain. She's rarely super happy about anything. But since she got what she wants, she can deal with the consequences.

Sorry for a little bit of trauma dumping lmao

Shameless plug

Staying a few nights in Big Bend National park was amazing. I've never felt so close to the Milky Way.

Just increase the density of neutrons by 0.1%.

The universe will probably cease to exist.

Christian are supposed to:

36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Matthew 22:36-40

Yet here we fucking are. If Jesus were to come back, he'd literally do the same shit he did thousands of years ago.

13 The Jewish Passover was near, so Jesus went to Jerusalem. 14 He found those who were selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons in the temple courtyard. He also found moneychangers sitting there. 15 He made a whip from small ropes and threw everyone with their sheep and cattle out of the temple courtyard. He dumped the moneychangers’ coins and knocked over their tables.

16 He told those who sold pigeons, “Pick up this stuff, and get it out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!”

Imagine him coming to a mega church. What an absolute joke of "Christianity". Fuck them, fuck anyone who supports it, and fuck the laws the enables this.

Don't know what's your definition of "combat roles" are, but below is the US military definition of Combat Arms.

In the U.S. Army, the following branches were traditionally classified from 1968 until 2001 as the combat arms:

Infantry (1775)

Field Artillery (Artillery 1775/ Re-designated Field Artillery 1968)

Air Defense Artillery (Created 1968)

Armor including Armored Cavalry, Light Cavalry, and formerly, Air Cavalry (Cavalry 1776/ Re-designated Armor 1950)

Since 2001, U.S. Army doctrine has included combat aviation, special operations, and combat engineer forces into the combat arms classification.

United States Marine Corps doctrine designates only Infantry forces as Combat Arms, with all other Ground Combat Element forces (Field Artillery, Assault Amphibian, Combat Engineer, Light Armored Reconnaissance, Reconnaissance, and Tank) considered Combat Support. Air Defense, as a part of Marine Aviation, is contained within the Aviation Combat Element.

They probably wanted to target Ft. Liberty which is the home of 18th Airborne Corps

I use mikrotik for routing but ubiquiti for wifi and switching. Such a wonderful system. Set and forget.

I'm in the US military. The fact that qualifying on an M4 is 23 out of 40 tells you a lot. (Although my unit's average is closer to 30ish)

Additionally, a very little amount of the military is combat arms roughly 15%. The other 85% supports the warfighter. I'm part of the 85%

This is why the US military is so logistically and maintenance heavy because we all support the 15%.

However shrapnel will cause a lot of damage and hopefully take out the brain with enough luck. The brain could still be alive without a body to support it.

Also depends on what kind of zombies we're talking about. If it's a zombie that still relies on oxygenated blood, then conventional tactics will still apply. However if the zombie only needs non-degraded muscles to keep moving, then it'll take a while for tactics to change.
