Everyone talked about tanks as ww1 winners. But people don't quite realise the stupendous artillery advantage the allies had. 2 or 3 to 1 by the end of the war in places. And significantly more shells. There's a reason we are still digging then up today

That's so evil, and given Enterprise's cancellation mid season also: perfect

No, maslows hierarchy of needs mandates a lack of savings equating with a lack of stability at lower tiers and hence your employees will fail to function at higher levels. So you need to pay more than minimum rates in every role, everywhere, if you want to actually have people and not worried as fuck drones.

Now, how much more depends on local factors - but here's a quick rule: if they add value to your business pass on about 25% of that profit from that individual. Finding a profit for a person can be challening, this is why you get a HR person and accountants.

Given my hiring purposes this week, I'd actually hire Robert Beltran today in real actual life. I need a bullshitter to show what network telly can produce, and if they opt for him: it's their fault!

Yup, https://duckduckgo.com/?q=horse+gas+mask&t=fpas&iax=images&ia=images - loads of varities though I'm not sure on numbers deployed. Due to the rather static lines of defense I do believe the second world war actually saw more horses used! The nazis were always scrambling for oil and petroleum and thus they utilised stupendous amounts of horses

The thing about air: there's a lot of it. Not many gases take that long to settle/dissipate. And a gas mask is pretty effective at filtering. I do imagine worst case scenario in the heaviest bombardment is a brief evacuation of current line of defense only, as this is what happened back in the somme. It was far more effective vs artillery: artillery regiments weren't equipped as well and thus they were denied counter battery fire for enough time to allow front lines to cross no mans land. Which were backed up by creeping barrages, which I haven't read much out in Ukraine yet

Gas in WW1 changed the battlefield for about 6 weeks whilst they scrambled for gas masks, but after this it didn't have the effect either side thought it would. A stupid distraction that will earn Putin and his generals a trip to the Hague for sure

 

Some amazing shots in here, and inspiration for shooters I'm sure

 

I've got Megadeth on for Saturday night tunes

 

Wow, what a cashgrab. I wish they'd just announce six already. We should totally buy Hasbro and carve out Wizards as a community

 

Last season for DISCO, will we see it finally grow a beard and everyone be raging no 6?

 

An opinion piece suggesting nuclear power the answer to datacenter needs, could AWS/GCP/Azure actually work together to solve this challenge?

 

Interviews and new music, what's not to love?

 

Happy 1st of December shit posters!

Just learned today Agalloch had a reunion show. Here's their first rough and ready for a trip down memory lane for many, and an education for others. Really hope they stick it out for a tour and another album!
