  • I disagree that covering Rhodesian arms is a red flag. Rhodesia gets sucked off by a lot of terrible people, but their arms are legitimately interesting because they are different and because they have influenced a lot of modern conflicts.

    I also agree that FW is very sus. He famously had a falling out with InRange TV over whether 2A rights should extend to people of all identities or not. If he isn’t a bigot, he is at least a coward.







  • I’ve had an original g502 since they first came out. Mine was a return that had been damaged, and other than some cosmetic damage (corrosion on the scroll wheel, rubber texturing worn flat, gamergrease stuck in the cracks), it has held up remarkably well for the past 10+ years.

    I’d encourage you to get a budget model from a gaming manufacturer just so you can avoid getting a mouse with integrated acceleration or something stupid like that.




  • I respectfully disagree, Jesus doesn’t even mention homosexuality.

    Paul mentions homosexuality, but Paul is very notably not Jesus, he’s basically just a guy who rolls up after Jesus is dead and says he’s an apostle now. There’s also significant cultural context there, and his objection to sex applied to all recreational sex regardless of orientation.

    The Old Testament also mentions homosexuality. I am not sufficiently educated on Hebrew culture to comment on those passages, but I do know that Christians are very explicitly not bound by Old Testament law.







  • It definitely can be that easy, yes. My most successful day was just a hook (no bait) off the side of the boat while we just let the line hang.

    That being said, you can learn the local varieties of fish, their preferences for different kinds of bait, and you can explore your local area for good fishing spots.

    If you have the option, there’s probably a 90 year old Korea vet who will tell you the arcane arts of catching swordfish in the rockies somewhere.

    We use liters for soft drinks and liquor, but gallons for fuel, milk, and water. For recipes we use fluid ounces or cups since gallons are kind of a large for that.

    It’s actually a mixed system, similar to the UK but with less metric in the mix.
