Doesn’t really matter tbh. Cross a certain “red line” and that five ship flotilla would quickly become the latest man-made reef courtesy of one Los Angeles Class attack submarine.

You win the internet. #COTD

It’s really amazing that truly nobody cares. At all.

This is so wrong. Wow.

There’s a lot going on in this picture.

Why is she... choking herself? Ah! Maybe she’s symboling to Mittens “you’re going to choke”

Just an FYI, it’s easy to get carried away at Which Wich. They almost give you too many choices and it turns out some of us are bad at picking flavor combinations. YMMV.

Do you understand how options work?

Idiocracy is looking more and more like prophecy every day.

Is that a Gordon Setter?!

Honestly, the Chinese, and Asians in general, can really hold their booze. I recall seeing a chart of alcohol consumption per capita in the Economist a few years ago and the ranking went something along the lines of:
1. Ukraine
2. Russia
3. South Korea
4. Japan
5. China
6. Ireland
......
20. United States.

The top 5 were all…

While drinking straight out of the bottle and giving the TSA the bird... right? :)

Edit: can we get a picture of this woman for a “straigh outta” gif?

There’s only one possible explanation for all of these explosions:

I’ll just leave this here.

Here’s my honest take: It has nothing to do with his “platform” or his “policy” positions. Humans have an innate social intelligence that evolved with us over thousands of years. Subconsciously we process things like facial expressions, posture, tone of voice, and cadence of speech and we can often tell when someone…

Relatively old electro-optical targeting systems on CIWS arrays can track smaller projectiles at velocities similar to those of an ICBM in much more challenging visual environments (near the surface of the ocean).

First, it’s not going 15,000mph... that’s how fast it goes upon re-entry. Look at the image below to get an idea as to the speed curve of an ICBM. You’re looking at something more along the lines of 2,500mph for boost phase intercept. That’s pretty trivial to track with optics (for evidence, look at crappy ground…

Light is pretty fast. Like really really really really fast.

TOPOL-M 15,000mph
Light 670,616,629mph

Edit: plus ICBMs are actually pretty slow in their boost phase. Nowhere near 15,000mph which is the speed they reach upon re-entry so it’s even more skewed.

Plus you’re dealing with a laser so you can actually be shockingly accurate with where you place your beam. E.g. you could target the thrust nozzles (or that general part of the rocket) and put them above their operating temperature in short order.

It was Asal Uttar. At least I think.
