  1. I'm just impressed you haven't slipped up over the years. Impressive.
  2. I'm not sure why anyone responds

    The bodys natural response ONLY comes into play during actual fight of flight situations. They have shown it only occurs in very high stress situations. Don't want any confusion out there. Wear your ear pro :).
  4. Hard pass. How can this be a good thing.
  5. Yeah, I also think thats the strategy employed here but also agree that the good ones are going to leave.
  6. I'm pretty impressed with the fidelity cash mgmt account. Having everything in one place now and not having to have transfers from old bank is pretty nice. Additionally, with the change I've somehow got a individual person I can talk to with any specific questions instead of some random USAA rep. Making money off of checking is a welcome addition as well.
  7. Wild. They butt fuck the entire F-35 system to get the B model fielded and then end up backing off it in the end.
  8. I understand why there hasn't been any media coverage on that statement but why hasn't the Trump office made any waves on it? Maybe I missed it but thats a pretty giant admission to make on the record on video and there hasn't been any coverage or pushback that I've seen.

    Lots of good stuff in there but I've found (like anything) there isn't a giant question mark on some of the stats he quotes in the series. The physiological stuff can't be argued with though. Its pretty funny when you go out shooting with the buddies and throw in some mild physical movements into the mix and watch the heartbeat of the gun barrel.

    Auditory exclusion is a thing that has been researched and validated from what I can read today. I remember reading about it in one of Grossman's books (I think). Essentially brain shuts down your ability to hear and even prevents the damaging effects in high stress situations such as fight or flight. Very interesting. Ripped from wiki: This is due to the increased blood flow in the eardrums that creates noise, causing the individual to lose hearing of the surrounding environment. This can manifest as a hissing or ringing in the individual's ears which consequently blocks out the noise around them. However, intentionally/voluntarily raising your heart rate to this level through exercise may not cause auditory exclusion. This is because the increase is not due to rapid hormonal changes that trigger the stress response, instead it is a gradual increase in heart rate as a result of exercise, i.e., it does not "shock" the body in the same way we do when encountering stressful situations.[8]
  11. Agreed. They are more than welcome to come up with better ways to get it done but the track record for the progressive side isn't quite spectacular. Also, they seem to be doubling down on going farther left of center based off the DNC elections.

    From what i've read. correct
  13. uhhello replied to a post in a topic in General Discussion
    All that stuff is still available. Just because it's not publically available doesn't mean its gone.

    They didn't stifle information flow. Withholding identity at that moment in time was in line with existing regulations.

    If it was my daughter I'd do the exact same thing. Imagine losing your daughter/son and stepping into the social media world to see every possible evil conspiratorial thing being said about your child. Whatever can be done to lessen the pain and stress would be done if I were them. Regardless of how many hours she could have had, it's not going to stop the fucktards from dragging him/her down. I rarely flew on a sortie that had a crew full of 1,000+ hour folks. There is always going to be a low hour guy on board getting training. Why is there no talk about the instructor/evaluator on board?

    Could be 'kink' or could be you don't trust your roommates
  17. This is real life. Grab a beer or three and listen to whole thing.
  18. yeah i saw that one initially and was looking way off on the horizon. Sucker was close
  19. Yeah, of course we're talking theoretically here.

    She was not recovered according to the timeline I have read. The other two were recovered and confirmed dead. The last crew member was listed as DUSTWUN until the release a short while ago. Not every event that happens in this shitty world is a globalist conspiracy. Some are. Most aren't.
  21. Curious where everyone trains/shoots. Lucky enough to be in an area with lots of Forest service land and can pretty much have no limits on what type of shooting/drills I can do.

    Every time I get the idea in my head that armed assholes breaking into my house is pretty much a fantasy the internet shows me a current incident reminding me the chance not zero. Kid got really lucky..
  23. Was absolutely screaming in. Got up to 1600 feet on departure then -11000 fpm on last adsb hit.

    You can breathe easier now. She has been identified. All is safe.
