    There’s got to be some psychological hack to this for some people, and I envy them. Imagine getting satisfaction from having gone to the gym just to walk… Gym is already a lazy form of workout even if you exert yourself.

    Then again, the only people I see walking on treadmills are fairly in-shape young women, so it’s hardly an issue









  • Who’d be the dream choice for american democrats? Hillary Clinton? Michelle Obama (who’s not even a politician) with Barrack as advisor or VP?

    I get that this is Lemmy and most people here are communists who’ll say Bernie Sanders, and that’s fine too, but wouldn’t he turn away a bunch of voters?



  • True, but the staff-cannon-things don’t seem like a great alternative, given that they’re usually fired from breast-hip height and seem to lack optics. And even if they did have optics, you’d think gliders and especially Al’kesh would already have engaged you.

    Staff weapons against gliders, sure, but that just touches more on the cinema-cool element, where advanced aerospace-fighters are taken down by weapons that shouldn’t hold a candle to that sort of platform. Another example is Shepard shooting down a wraith dart with an M249 (which he was carrying for whatever reason).

    Stingers and AT-4’s I can understand, but I feel like more realistically they’d be on the far edge of what could defend against gliders and darts.
