@PawelK @Draven I see someone else spent a considerable amount of time in a Church. It seems that many denominations taught resistance to Communism or oppression.

Perhaps there were still special camps for male kiddos that taught some anti red things. Good times especially for a kiddo. Eventually it was shut down because maybe violence was used for those who didn't want to go run through the woods. Maybe water wasn't made available unless an objective was reached or someone collapsed from the heat. It was still fun. We learned a lot of combat and bush first aid.

@thendrix Is it really misspelled if it is referenced widely? Maybe it's just living in Spain without the S.

@Vox I don't think an experienced leather worker would willingly alter aged leather. It would be a better option to have a new coat made in the same style and you wear it in.

What makes the coat special is your father. You could similarly make your own coat special. If cared for properly, it will likely be the last one you would need.

@thendrix Maybe they will be escorted to a Russian or Chinese helicopter for evacuation. That would be a pro gamer strat.

@thendrix I always assumed that most the government would do is repatriate my corpse.

@lupyuen Oh nice, I have an old friend who works for Palo Alto.

@PawelK @kuad75@social.kyiv.dcomm.net.ua Oh yeah it's an opportunity. It reminds me of the old network printers that had memory. A repair technician could come quickly, service the machine and be out before the real technician arrived.

Passport copies, IDs, internal documents and whatever one would not expect to be found.

I would hope that the IT tech would have undergone a power cycle to get rid of memory leaks but perhaps it's better they don't. IoT devices with special firmware will help to free all of the oppressed information or act as a distraction for firmware based malware to exfil. Using images should help it get posted on the appropriate social media for collection.

@PawelK @kuad75@social.kyiv.dcomm.net.ua Sorry, I was testing my memory after 72 hours of being awake. This is how I remembered the Ural. My memory seems to function better but languages become confused.
I was having difficulty reading it. I should be able to understand it better now.

@DotardTed @PawelK @sickcodes You mentioned a radiator. Radiators can be relocated trophy truck style. The armor is going to essentially be irrelevant as a few kg of RDX in a shape charge is going to destroy the equipment. Save the tractor.

If traditional plowing is going to be used, I would recommend getting a destroyed heavy tank running again and using it instead. It could be operated via remote control and it doesn't matter if it has no turret attached. It just drives, plows and takes the damage. It should last a field or more if the plow is made from thick armor steel.

@DotardTed @PawelK @sickcodes I've operated a D7 Caterpillar which is a bulldozer weighing around 14,000kg. The same model is used for clearing mines but with heavy armor. With that being said, the US has some scary antitank mines. It can sense the approach and launch into the air for a Javelin like effect. I don't know what Russia has.

The best approach that I can think of is to lay down more top soil. Perhaps it could be a Meter. It's a large task but mines don't do very well when they are buried too deep. It could keep agriculture going.

@mike805 @freemo @MelodyCooper @stormy178@mastodon.stormy178.com Well the Gobment made the action button, changed the stick powder to something else, no cleaning kits were issued, for some reason they didn't have chrome lined barrels and add in around 800 rounds per minute of barely any recoil fed in 20 round magazines. It's empty after around 1.5 seconds.

The original round was very effective and it was classified as to why it was effective. The round was prone to fragmentation around 3000fps. So that's one reason that round was phased out and a different twist was used.

Add in the fact that the AK-47s were actually Chinese Type 56 rifles and the North Korean version. Both had milled receivers and weren't the garbage Soviet AKM. If you look at US GIs holding a captured AK rifle, there's likely a lightening cut above the magazine well. That's the Type 56.

With all that being said, it worked great for the USAF and special forces units. The fragmentation issue was deemed a metallurgical problem.

It's a wonder it survived.

@mike805 @freemo @MelodyCooper @stormy178@mastodon.stormy178.com Diesel Engines and the fire piston. The Wankel and Mazda. Steam boilers exploding and the Sterling Engine.

@lupyuen @poleguy That's good. I do believe that most hardware failures on the Pinephone are from inserting a microSD card in the SIM slot.

It was one of the best phones that I have owned.

@poleguy @lupyuen What hardware version do you have? I still have my V1.1 Braveheart.

@freemo @MelodyCooper @stormy178@mastodon.stormy178.com The Mini 14 was a good lesson in why harmonics are important. The M4 was useful in learning why a 14.5in barrel using a round developed for a 16 to 20in barrel is not that good. Yep it took until 1996 to be formally introduced because of problems. Now it's being replaced with a battle rifle that weighs around 13.5lbs.

Ignore the Engineers and Designers. It's like NASA with O-rings. Communism doesn't stop for cold weather. We need another victory lap.

@lore @quilnux@mastodon.fulltermprivacy.com @Phil I will ask around to see what I can find. I know a guy who also builds Synths among other things. I will ask him and see what he recommends.

Asking Dr. Freemo is going to likely point in a helpful direction. If you have problems finding him, Thor can ping him. Also Thor probably knows a bit about this.

Mr. Lee is goated but I really do mean Greatest Of All Time. He stays busy with his work but he's really friendly.

The list could continue on but I'll get to work on trying to find a SHARC, TMS320, Blackfin or whatever is recommended. Hopefully it is something better. ;P

Ah Nu!
