As they pointed out on Jon Stewart's show last night, it's not like they'll get off. Pundits decrying "Oh, what if they get released on a technicality?" to which Jon took out 2 beer bottles and started banging them together saying "KSM...come out and play-ay..." Street justice would be quite swift, so just put him on the streets of NYC.

It was a little disappointing here, too, with some dense cloud cover blocking our view until it was almost a minute after launch. After that we could see it fine, though. Just sad I was here and not at the Cape for some reason yesterday.

It doesn't have to be locked onto you in particular, just transmitting and therefore it should be on the RWR. I've seen them work against all types of radars as well as radar-equipped units like Shilkas.

48hr Madness deals are always awesome.

What's your fav method of air-to-air combat?
JediMaster replied to jet_spud's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Well in Il-2 my favorite kill was to saw the bandit's tail off with my prop, but that's not feasible here. I'll agree that IRM's are my favorite, especially the earlier ones as getting a kill with them was far more difficult than with an R-73 or AIM-9X today. Also since my plane seems to be the size of 5 B-52s stuck together I dislike getting close to planes with tailguns! So many Tu-16s, Tu-22s, and Il-28s have notches on their planes from killing me that I've probably made several bomber gunners aces over the years... Another thing is those bombers generally won't go down from a single IRM hit anyway, and I've even had fighters survive sometimes. The best is when you hit one and it seems to survive, it flies for another few minutes, and as you close in to get a guns kill (I'll never waste a missile on a damaged fighter!) they eject/die in the cockpit and the plane goes down without any more effort on your part! -

Worst thing about this plane is the name...it just doesn't flow well! Would be great to finally have it in a sim where it can do its job, though (I'm discounting the MSFS versions that may exist since it can't fight there). -
A small problem with NF4+

Ah, that's a beta version of Wonder Woman's invisible plane. -
No, the world will end when Congress passes a health care reform bill that actually improves health care and costs the gov't less. So while some think it will happen this year, I think we can confidently predict NEVER.

Free? LOL, imagine if you had to pay for the privilege of dying!
-
Geez, already?? Man, SP must be REALLY short.
-
Considering I can't even remember if I've ever seen the film, I'm out!
-
I'm not nearly as frightened of dying as I am of almost dying but then surviving in some horribly diminished capacity, so bad I wish I had died. While I know I won't feel a thing if I'm gone, I feel now like I'd miss my family, and I know how much it would hurt them if I was gone.

I think having a poem written is a first here!

Modernized AK? Which one is that? An updated 47, a 74, or a 107?
-
The Biel/Shakira thing is so like the kinds of things I hear around here.
-
Yeah, I don't think the game is worth even $40 as I don't play MP. So for SP, no.

The 2nd episode is tonight! We'll see how it goes...

Oh, well Dollhouse is on hiatus right now, and has been for a couple of weeks. They're showing Bones reruns now, yes. They DID show at least half a dozen eps this year, if not more. Not sure when it's coming back, may not be until '10.
-
They need higher profit margins on the games they make? How about they stop making games that cost well over $10 million and instead try making them for a realistic amount? We've seen what TK can do on a shoestring budget, imagine if he had $2 million what he could do!
-
Yes, regale us with tales of fighting the Barbary Pirates!

I did a double take at first, I thought those finflash flags were missing a maple leaf as I thought "Canada??" -
PC Version of 'IL-2 Birds of Prey' is announced
JediMaster replied to SGCSG1's topic in General Flight Sim Discussion
Depends on your definition of "hard". From what I saw in the demo, you have to deal with a LOT more planes in a mission than Il-2 threw at you! -
Well, Xena and B5 were syndicated shows, like TNG and DS9 and Andromeda, and could be shown at any time of day or night. Bones and Dollhouse are network shows and I don't think they have much latitude in when they air them...

I do most of it on Amazon or similar sites. Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and others are pointless for 2 words--sales tax. Also, how do you pay cash on a website? Do you have a little motorized slot thingy on your keyboard?
