EMT 7/18/15 - Breakin' Dallas, Electric Yahoo [krakatoa]

Another all night maintenance eating up my weekend.

I didn't exactly break it, but I didn't exactly put it back together right either.

I literally missed the last command of the procedure. Essentially the command that turned the system up for live traffic. In the end, it only cost me an hour.

I'd feel like the biggest idiot in the world, but then I go back and check TFG's record and realize I'm batting in the JV league when it comes to F'nSU. There is no maintenance window that will safely deal with bringing up Iran the bomb.

--------
Shapiro was on the Dr. Drew show to talk with a panel about Bruce Jenner getting that ESPY award. Also there was Zoey Tur who apparently has had the penis mutilation surgery. Shapiro refused to call Bruce Jenner a "she" and pointed out that Jenner still has his XY chromosomes. Zoey gently placed his hand on Shapiro back beneath his neck, and then said on camera "you cut that out or you will be leaving in an ambulance".

Not so worried about the Saudis, as they seem to be more interested in buying Lamborghinis and mega-mansions. Except for jewelers, car dealers and realtors, we'd be better off without them, though.

What bothers me are the Muzzies like the Tennessee shooter who are allowed to fly under the radar by the government. Good Boys all, until they go out and start shooting. I suspect there are more than 127,000 of them.

If it wasn't so terrible for the victims and the country at large, it would be fun to watch the MFM twisting into knots trying to "explain" that they have no idea what motivated the TN shooter.

Simple concepts like "hate the CBF" and Robert E. Lee they can deal with. Complex issues like a so-called religion that wants to destroy all who don't belong to it are more difficult.

They would have tried to "understand" the Nazis while Hitler was shipping people off to the gas chambers.

No...idiots with paintball and airsoft guns can cause trouble.

Paintball and airsoft guns are to be transported either cased, boxed, or bagged. And never to be brandished/displayed in an area away from the playing area/field.

We sometimes will carry speedball/electronic markers from the car to the house in an assembled state, but those markers are hard to confuse with an actual weapon.

And idiots shooting at things with paintball guns and blaming the gun itself is like blaming shotguns for stop sign damage.

93 Hey, um, own-horn-tooting time. Yesterday, first time since September, I put up a video. Simply played around with the clip of Major Garrett poking at the Moloch Worshiper in the White House. I had fun anyway. Visit the webpage. Leave comments. Make donations. Make it viral on socialist media. Whatev.

Rile the Snake at your own risk. His majesty is challenged by a rogue reporter, who is appropriately scolded and scorched.

94 While i agree, Somebody here said yesterday that the hot new thing in paintball now is magazine fed, with an air tank hidden in the stock.


That was me. Mag Fed is a small segment, but it is gaining a following. The paintballs are literally fed from a magazine below, instead of a hopper above. The high pressure air tank is either a standard fat tank, or a 2" dia, 13 cu in tank. They have designed a collapsible AR style stock to fit around the small tank.

The result is a slim line, lightweight marker best suited for mil sim scenarios.

95 "While i agree, Somebody here said yesterday that the hot new thing in paintball now is magazine fed, with an air tank hidden in the stock."

Yeh, I just googled images, and some of them look almost as realistic as the current line of airsoft guns.

I guess I should pay more attention to the new products being offered.

96 NOOD is Y-nots political thread.

We can hang here for the non-political chit chat if we wish.

97 Someone (Lizzy?) said yesterday that there have been several paintball attacks on Jews over months and that they are all coming from the same kind of car.

98 Nood? NOOD? We finally get a really early early thread and it gets stomped at less than a hundred comments?

Okay. Weekend rules.

No pants.....right?

100 It was ThunderB who said the attacks were against Jews and from a similar car.

Remember the big sci-fi/fantasy/anime con in NYC last year caused plenty of butt-hurt from the cosplay crowd when it cracked down on costume weapons.

I have always been of the camp who tries to explain to the younger cosplay crowd that people are freaking because well frankly you ARE freaking them out as you are dressing as say Mario or Hetalia characters at the mall and invading their comfort zone. All I get is either blank looks or whining. It does not seem to process through their brains that other people have views and feelings that need to be respected, all that matters is what they want.

101 "I have always been of the camp who tries to explain to the younger cosplay crowd that people are freaking because well frankly you ARE freaking them out as you are dressing as say Mario or Hetalia characters at the mall and invading their comfort zone. "

Same here with the MilSim crowd.
Fortunately, most of them are aware of the realistic look, and the effect on people in a non-playing field environment.

Now, the clowns that were up in New York yesterday?
To me, that is outright trolling/provocation.

What was visible to the public, as shown in the photo provided every visible element necessary for one to assume an attack was about to take place.


Not a single clue was missing.

104 79 For those who have been looking at them, just received one of the Radom P-64's that Classic was offering.


I have the trifecta of 9x18s and while the p-64 is the most compact and a fine weapon it's the lest fun for me at the range compared to a Mak PM or CZ-82. May try one of the grips from Marschal (Marschalgrips.com) to see if it can reduce the recoil bite a bit.

Just got my 2nd Bulgarian Mak from AIM. Much better wear than the photo or description would have suggested. Wish I had jumped on board with these when they were $150 a pop mid 2000s.
