In my experience eating a quarter instead of a sixteenth or eighth mostly just made the trip last much longer. I don't recommend it unless you're really familiar with your particular mushrooms and very comfortable hallucinating generally. The peaks were a bit intense but not really that much wilder than taking an eighth, though a good deal more detached from reality than on a sixteenth. It just was more like a heavy acid trip in terms of duration.

Suppressors overheat and get dirty easily and the baffles get trashed. It's going to be so expensive, it's really hard to explain that because the public is enamoured with silencers from movies. Further complicating that, they require an armourer to clean the gas ports and everything else too because of the hand guard design. It's like the whole thing was designed to overheat, get dirty, and get trashed easily, the opposite of what you want in a service rifle.

But they're saying a new tactic is making everything a zip gun, not that weapons were previously sold with the pitch of "this thing will be garbage within 1-5 years of use, preventing seized supplies from being used against you" And of course the unreliability of the tech now isn't actually some wartime strategy it's just capitalism combined with a MIC that's not really designed for fighting a war, just draining an empire's coffers.

BRJurgis posted:I haven't yet witnessed or experienced an amount of acid or shrooms to keep one from standing or walking, and in a few cases it has even sort of helped. For example, being on a roof is more dangerous while fearing the height with knees shaking vs being confident you don't have anything to worry about as long as you don't fall. Lol on one hand I can see your point but on the other hand no way does acid or shrooms make being on a roof less dangerous

My favorite was just like in the Vietnam war, we spent more than enough to just fly and house every man woman and child in Iraq using commercial flights for less than the cost of bringing freedom to the middle east

A reminder that the upcoming US service rifles has custom sized ammunition and have a really high powder load so they use a different bullet during training vs live fire. The gun also weighs 10 pounds and a full magazine weighs two pounds. You can almost immediately see a number of extremely significant issues that would arise from this, but I just slipped you a voucher to get a seat on the board at Raytheon so just go ahead and approve everything

High powder load running through a suppressor, which requires a separate cleaning fluid. It’s conspiratorial to say they want to trash them, but I don’t know how you’d keep them clean and serviceable.

The end users of battle rifles are not the customers, and the actual customers will, it turns out, pay a lot more for a lovely gun that needs decades of updates and fixes than for one that's good right out of the gate.
