Meanwhile my Father gifted me a 3500€ high end PC this year, and when I offered to split the bill 50/50 since I felt he gave too much money, he told me that I need modern and up to date equipment for my Youtube work, and that I can repay him by getting to 100k subs. Thanks dad

@AinaAluAran @LandsknechtPike I've read from several sources that Raimondo Montecuccoli, the famous Hapsburg commander thought that Turkish bows were as effective as firearms. Unfortunately I haven't seen the original quote, so I don't know what was the context or caveats he might've included.

Imperial light cavalry in the Long Turkish War (1593-1606). It's interesting how at the time European military tactics were already surpassing the Ottomans, particularly due to greater use of firearms and employing harquebusiers who used disciplined fire against Ottoman troops.

@ComedianMark @ted_ryce @AJA_Cortes Anecdotal evidence, but the toughest grappler at my BJJ gym has a wrestling background. Can easily wrap guys head taller than him I to knots. Him not wearing a cup also increases the feeling of being violated.

@ted_ryce @AJA_Cortes So if I ask my buddy who is better than you and he agrees with me can I also be condescending. Then you can find another guy all the way until we get to Jon Jones and have him agree with me?

The rise of MMA effectively ended the mysticism around "martial arts" things like "death touch" dont exist blocking multiple strikes is for movies, not real life No one says "hiyah!" in real life multiple kicks makes you easy to take down there are no secret ninja moves

@AllYouCanEatZoo @river_is_nice Yeah, people filming shows have a chilling effect. Makes one more self-conscious about singing out of key or even moving at all. It's really lame.

@memeticsisyphus I quite liked the book, reminded me a lot of "telegraph road" by Dire Straits. I did notice that there was very few mentions of alcohol and drunkenness compared to other depictions of rural life. More infanticide though.

An essential in every Finnish home, the rug hanger. Here you hang rugs and beat them. I'm not sure how common they are in other countries, I think they are common in Sweden (might be from Swedish origin idk) but I once hanged out with some danish exchange students who didn't know about them. Not sure if it was just those danish kids that was unaware or if they aren't common in Denmark.

I was staying at an Airbnb this weekend and there was a old aerial photo of the house. The homeowner is tending his garden next to the field, laundry is hangdrying and there is a sundial on the lawn. Peak rural Finland, when this photo was taken there was probably a million Finnish homes that looked just like this.

@FistedFoucault My father ceased speaking to his brother beyond Christmas greetings and similar pleasantries after he implied that the men from my dad's area hunt by shooting from top of motor sleighs. My father considered it a grave insult.

This is like Tito in the 60s when he would go hunting in Bugojno with his cronies, and a bear would be drugged so that he could shoot it and claim the kill.

@NEETWorldOrder I think it's best to take such sensationalist claims with a grain of salt. Especially when they're coming from one of the warring parties.

It's incredible how trash they are at fighting despite the literal decades of propaganda--from Hollywood films to magical kosher karate--to convince us otherwise. It'd be more accurate to say they're a police outfit with heavy weaponry rather than a serious professional military.
COMBATE |🇵🇷@upholdreality

🔴 Hezbollah lured an entire Israeli armored company into a textbook ambush last night on the Taybeh–Qantara axis Tuesday, Israel's 7th Brigade sent a remote-controlled bulldozer to probe Hezbollah's defensive lines between Muhaysibat and Qantara. The fighters spotted it and let it pass. They wanted the real prize. Wednesday at 6:50 PM, it came. A full armored column of Merkava tanks and D9 bulldozers, rolling single-file toward Qantara. Hezbollah waited. Every vehicle entered the kill zone. Then the order came, and with the battle cry "Ya Rasul Allah," the fighters launched. Guided missiles slammed into the middle of the column. Four Merkavas and a D9, all destroyed. The column was now cut in half. The rear platoon popped smoke to hide. It didn't matter. Missiles found them too. All four tanks burned. The lead platoon tried to push through into Qantara anyway. More missiles. Another D9 and two more Merkavas gone. The surviving soldiers abandoned their vehicles and tried to evacuate their casualties, fleeing on foot back toward Muhaysibat while Hezbollah artillery pounded their command posts and reinforcements. Final toll: ten tanks, two bulldozers. An entire company's worth of armor wiped out in a single engagement. And this was the second time in three days. Two days earlier, Hezbollah destroyed eight Merkavas in a similar ambush on the Taybeh to Deir Siryan road.

@Knightly_Hist Having sparred with a helmet on in MMA, it limits your vision, which leads to more blows landing. It also encourages your sparring partners to hit you harder, even though it's main function is to protect against cuts, not to stop the brain from ping-ponging inside the skull.

The Late Knight Show@Knightly_Hist·
Large eye slots on helmets are often criticised, sometimes rightfully so. Most european knightly helmets had very thin slits, to protect from arrows, splinters, swords and lances (all with very fine points). But in war, trading that kind of protection for extra vision could be worth it. Most warrior cultures (samurai, ancient greek, chinese) don't seem to cover the eyes as much, and in the era of mass produced close helmets (1600s) where guns were widely used, a couple generations of Europeans saw plenty of wide-eyed visors. If the large eye slit is an aesthetic you like, and you're not making your characters joust, feel free to use it. Golden Turkic mask by "Fay Armory"

@Knightly_Hist I also really like the helmet, althoug i think it's design is more fantasy than history (maybe the neck protection seems a bit samurai?

@mattforney Shi'ites supposedly love their martyrdom, but from what I've gathered the current regime has been mismanaging the country for decades and are out of touch with the youth. However, calling for unconditional surrender doesn't seem smart, based on what the public knows.

but to be fair, "self-immolation" is an apt word for describing iranian state policy. no anglo-zionist freemason forced the wise religious elite to greenlight building the worst dam in modern history. this is why there were riots.

@Samb931 @Jrvinen_J Tästä on ristiriitaista tietoa. Olen kuullut että sopimukset ovat "toistaiseksi voimassaolevia" ja iso osa rahallisesta korvauksesta maksetaan vain jos zeekeri on sotatoimialueella alakurtin yms. sijaan. Mediazonalla oli viimeisimmän tiedon mukaan 200 000 kuolleen tietokanta.

Miettiiköhän nuo Venäjällä, että jos 48 kk jatkuneessa sodassa rekrytoidaan 30 k kuussa, niin olemassa olevien lisäksi Ukrainassa pitäisi olla nyt 2 miljoonaa sotilasta? Ellei ole, niin missä ne on?

Tätä menoa Suomi taantuu ensin tunnistamattomaksi ja lopulta viimeinen sammuttaa valot. Ihmelääkkeitä ei ole, mutta syntyvyyteen on pakko panostaa. Lapsiperheiden työn verotuksen lasku-uraa on jatkettava - mielellään jo kevään aikana ja paljon tuntuvammin ensi kaudella. Se luo kannustimia työhön ja perheellistymiseen sekä palkitsee yhteisen hyvän edistämistä. Oman kansan tulevaisuus ja selviytyminen menevät kaiken muun edelle. Tämä tarkoittaa, että missään tilanteessa ei voi luovuttaa ja lakata yrittämästä.
