  1. Right. Totally his call.
  2. Vivek overplayed his hands with the holidays H1B visas debate and schism, annoyed T and Elmo, and is being asked politely/put on an ice floe to go be Indian somewhere else.
  3. Traditional fire season for everyone else. Mediterranean climate here, just like Chile, Australia, Spain, France, Italy, and Greece…guess what they all have in common? Big wildfire threats, outside the traditional summer forest fire spectrum. Fall and early winter is when we get the Santa Anas here, which is why Quebec 1&2 (CL-415 super scoopers) were here in the first place, they’re leased on a retainer and fly out of VNY. But on those heavy offshore wind days, all it takes is a spark and people are losing homes. I’ll read Majestik’s posts some more because those seem insightful, but I’ll just say the usual tribal politics being exhibited here are largely missing the point and aren’t helpful. Rake America Great Again is a simpleton take for SoCal. Maybe up north for the redwood forests… 14 helitankers working out of my airport, we’re doing our part.
  4. Trudeau’s just opening himself up for the Governor job. Probably gonna take some days off for a dip in the Gulf of America first.
  5. Well obviously duh /RWNJ sarcasm
  6. One of those 37mm/57mm birds or a shoulder-fired variety bird species was Pantsir S1 apparently
  7. Well…it could’ve been an airliner, full of civvies… The Russians sure do like keeping that tradition alive, on Christmas Day no less (admittedly it’s not Orthodox Christmas yet). But I’m sure it’s NATO’s fault.
  8. If she’s the person I briefly followed on IG…yeah…
  9. I live in the greater LA area, and one thing I’ll give the Tesla brand credit for is how much it has eaten into the Prius numbers on the road and put people in a vehicle that can get up and go if need be. Not everyone is doing it for the virtue-signaling experience, and lots of people in LA have lengthy commutes (fortunately I don’t) so with high gas taxes in CA people are looking for an edge and use EVs and hybrids for that. For so long, the Prius was dominant (still is to a degree) and not having driven one I don’t know what’s at play in the vehicle but holy fuck do they excel at being in the way, slowing/jamming traffic, can’t or don’t accelerate for shit etc. Tesla seems to have put those people in a much more capable vehicle. I still think anyone who buys a Cybertruck is a complete clown tho.
  10. Operation Fumble-Ruskie-doooo!
  11. That was exactly my reaction too. Some of the OSINT election reactions on Twitter, being pro-UKR and not exactly elated at Trump’s victory, were directly saying at least the work wouldn’t have to put up with or deal with Jake Sullivan’s actions/policies anymore.
  12. Cripple fight?
  13. Parents visiting for the weekend so highly unlikely I’ll make it up there. Add Jason Somes’ MiG-17 as well. And the EA-18 demo is LOUD…amazed me just how much so at OSH.
  14. I was waiting for Bashi to come up in this
