  1. Crimes in the Skies

    Is that a reference to the Ted "Cruise" missile , if so fuck that bible thumping nutjob.
  2. Silence speaks volumes...

    Contrary to what you might think I'm not one for eradication of muslims, that's not what my religion preaches, but as an "infidel" I do know that Islam does preach the eradication of all non-believers. Like I said if there's any reformation of Islam it has to come from muslims, much like how christians for the most part ignored all the hateful shit in the old and new testament and reshaped it into the way "perhaps" as christ intented it to be. P.S I don't belong to any of the Abrahamic faiths.
  3. Crimes in the Skies

    I love your in da face punch post yo !
  4. Silence speaks volumes...

    I don't think he's a "secret" muslim that's too much of the bible thumping nut job libertarians ideology. But as to him being sympathetic to Islam, he sure does know how to kiss Saudi ass, just like George Bush Jr. Let's face it most of your presidents kissed Saudi terrorist ass and they love the oil that squirts from it.
  5. Hilarious Allahu Ackbar Vine compilation

    Man, fuck the NSA, I'll shipost on 4chan all I want.
  6. Silence speaks volumes...

    Except Obama DOES pussyfoot around Islamic terrorism on the world stage. The problem is ISLAM anyone else who says otherwise is a freaking liar. And the "fixing" of the subhuman horrific acts committed is the responsibility of muslims not us.
  7. Iraqi air defenses in 1991?

    Don't know if this article by the Foreign Military Studies Office at Fort Leavenworth helps shed some light to this conversation it does relate to Desert Storm though, still an interesting read. http://fmso.leavenworth.army.mil/documents/rs-storm.htm
  8. Tesla Model 3 nearly here

    Strawman much ? http://jalopnik.com/why-porsche-911-gt3-owners-are-still-super-pissed-off-1567011597 And since you quote Top Gear as reliable source. Here's a fun article Richard Hammond was advised to NOT drive his 100,000 pound Porsche. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2567659/Top-Gear-presenter-Richard-Hammond-warned-not-driver-new-100-000-Porsche-two-limited-edition-supercars-suddenly-burst-flames.html So what's your point, the point is that you just dislike electric cars and have a stick up your ass and think fuel cells cars are the future without actually having spoken to any credible source in the automotive sector about just how unfeasible fuel cell cars are due to the massive amounts of energy required to produce it. You've gone beyond embarrassing yourself to just sounding like a philistine, it would be in your interest to stop with the pseudo "facts". You Troglodyte !
  9. Going Rogue

    Bitch , bitch bitch. Jesus H Christ I'm fucking sick of you nostalgia critics, criticising a movie before the movie is even out. Much like Man of Steel "Oh Superman should have his red undies on the outside" really ? Fuck that. Amen SW brothers EP7 though a rehash of A New Hope was an awesome cpr of SW franchise and Rogue One looks great. The director stressed at D23 on the "Wars" part of it, no Jedi's only Sith, i.e Emperor and Vader, can hardly wait. In that you're all lone I think.
  10. KA-52 in Syria. Love that coaxial rotor sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rP8omK43sug
  11. But it's still oh so glorious so see the old cat flying regardless of which nation she flies for. Isn't it ironic though that one of the greatest aircraft the US Navy ever had in it arsenal continues to fly for and serve one of her greatest "enemies" ? I do love the Iranian cat camo schemes though tbh.
  12. I nearly spilled my precious Blue Label on the laptop after going to that link. :biggrin: Stop writing this stuff unless you want people to waste their scotch. You know what they say, there's a special place in hell for those that waste a good scotch.
  13. Tesla Model 3 nearly here

    I'll second that, my Volts interior looks absolutely low tech compared to my dad's Tesla Model S, you really feel like you're driving in a goddamn hover vehicle in the Tesla. Their noise damping and special noise damping tires really do make a difference. My Volts got noise damping tires but since it doesn't have a battery like the Tesla Chevy had to compromise on "heavier" noise damping materials to extend battery range.
  14. Tesla Model 3 nearly here

    They won't. It's your critique if one can call it that that tumbles like the fatso in the gif. Which year ? Yes the year makes a difference cause manufactures are constantly improving the tech. My 2016 Chevy Volt's better than a 2015 Volt and there's a marked improvement in mileage and one's driving style also factors into mileage. I used to have a lead foot back when I had a BMW 335ci (don't know what it's called in Germany) but having transitioned to the Volt I drive it far more conservatively. First of all I'm a maple syrup slurping Canadian and second of all it's an absolute riot to hear a German talk about reliability given the VW/Audi emissions scandal, word in the auto sector is that BMW is the next target. The only one NOT the target is Mercedes since their diesel cars use a urea filter which the previous two claimed they didn't need. I'm not picking on you, my brother's an engineer at Audi in Ingolstadt and I give him the same amount of grief. Furthermore, I've been to your Autobahn 8 times in just 2 years and cant even be bothered to count the times in the last decade, I know you Germans think us North Americans live in a bubble and while that might be true to a certain extent, my dad has worked with Airbus extensively in purchasing aircraft for them for Emirates and the Royal family of Abu Dhabi, heck he was even given security clearance to the plant where the A380 is assembled. I need to say this so that you know I'm not an ignorant Canadian (if I didn't tell you how would you) I've traveled round the bloody globe 3 times, have lived in enough countries from the middle east to the far east to western europe that I've gone through 9 passports because they ran out of visa stamps. I've kept all of those passports as a travelers badge of honour, and yes I spelled honour with a "u", the RIGHT way.

    From the album Pics

  16. Eye in the Sky Trailer

    Good Kill actually surprised me, it was a good movie. Ethan Hawkes are really good actor, it's on Netflix. Watch it you might like it, provided you can watch the movie objectively and put aside your political bias.
  17. Tesla Model 3 nearly here

    I found a gif earlier to best illustrate your aforementioned mental gymnastics, but by calling it a dead end development I believe this new one is far more appropriate an example of your post.
  18. Tesla Model 3 nearly here

    Nonsense, my dad owns a 2014 Tesla Model S, that Top Gear claim was pertaining to the older Tesla's, with the current superchargers there is no impact to their batteries as they've been designed with supercharging in mind. All of the battery claims that you've put down are outdated and misleading. Tesla's current gen of batteries do not suffer from the negative that you've mentioned. Not to mention on our Tesla S the battery is warrantied by Tesla for 10 yrs with zero cost to my dad, my Tesla 3 when I get my delivery (probably 2019) will also have it's battery warrantied for 10 yrs with zero cost to me. I currently drive a leased 2016 Chevy Volt hybrid and the gas savings with that car alone in a metropolitan area and bumper to bumper highway "driving "have been tremendous. Add to that, that I can drive in HOV (high occupancy vehicle) lanes on the highway with my hybrid or our tesla with just me in the car, as the HOV rules don't apply to green vehicles, and it's hilarious to blow past pickup trucks, SUV's, and other cars who're stuck in bumper to bumper on the highway while there are just 10-15 cars in my lane, given the nature of north american driving, and very few people car pooling. Naysayers of electric cars can do whatever mental gymnastics they want to, but the fact is that electric cars are here, they're the future, deal with it. Seriously, our Tesla S destroys most cars in flat out performance due to the nature of the electric motors insane levels of torque and acceleration 0-100 kph in 3.5 seconds. Weeee !

    Have already made a 1K payment to reserve mine, can't wait.
  20. India retires Sea Harriers

    Good catch there regarding the LUSH upgrade. I get a chuckle whenever this upgrade is mentioned as LUSH is a slang in Toronto for someone who's a perpetual drunk.
