  1. Banned for dystopian respecting.
  2. The utilization brigade usually wears long blue coats like this one. Interesting, were those two engines destroyed by demolition charges to prevent their reuse.
  3. Banned everyone who didn't realize that saying "it isn't Apr,1" on Apr,1 is a widely used, socially appropriate, verbal communication strategy.
  4. Granted. GLaDOS will call you. I wish for a cloudy day.
  5. They won't have enough food for thousand. There are 20..30 polar kilobears in the whole Arctics., and ~200 k "native" kilohumans living in the whole tundra or around, and both are the top predators Miles in a tropic sea vs tens of miles in the icy water, with glaciers and tundra at both coasts, with bikini instead of fur coat and fat. Spears are enough good to kill the lassoed alien. The native peoples usual tactics was to crawl in the night to the opponent skin tent, to lasso the top of it with several lassos to bring it down, and start piercng with spears through the skins every human-sized lump. For protection they were wearing a birch bark armor. As the alien would be hungry and cold, its metabolism would be low and movements slow. Thus they would just do to the alien species the same what they were doing to a tent with several men inside. To use a strategy the aliens should have a lot of them at once. And this will face the same problem as any historical army had. The army size is limited by local food and water. That's why just a battalion of humans was taking its part. And as the aliens have greater power, they need more food. So, they would be forced to spread around the tundra, and most of them would not find any food at all, while others would use one strategy: see a food - run walk and catch. As the reindeer herds would be driven away once the nearest of them had been attacked, the aliens would have to cross hundreds kilometers of either ice and snow in winter, or swamps in summer.
  6. What peasants? It's a tundra. For sure they will not have enough food to grow a thousand by eating polar bears, birds, and seals (because they need a tenfold to grow big). They will be frozen and slow, as they don't have any protective layer like fur or fat. They will have to cross three straits (~80 km in total) of icy water. And the survivors will reach same hostile coast of the continent, having then to cross the tundra with numerous swamps and daily blizzards. The food which they meet are reindeers, owned and herded by Arctic peoples, living in several tens kilometers from each other. To illustrate: the Russian-Chukcha war in XVIII-XIX (i.e. in the Napoleon epoch) was lasting almost for two centuries and finished with a draw. (It began because the Russian allies, Koryaks, had asked for their herds protection, if it's important. ) The Russian Empire which was fighting against much greater armies at the West, was able to have only a battalion, because it was impossible to hold more so far from the agricultured areas. So, it was a war between several hundreds soldiers and several tens thousands hunters-herders, where the parties were mostly fighting against hunger and cold. Finally they got an agreement that Chukchas recognize themselves as subjects of the Russian Empire and stop terrorizing Koryaks; they should pay tribute of one sable fur per man per year if they can (sic!); while the Russian Empire may send them gifts of arbitrary value. So, the poor aliens in that epoch would eat the nearest herd of reindeers, and then the local dwellers would just take their herds away from that place and start hunting the frozen extraterrestrials to sell them in the nearest Russian trading post. Probably, the muskets would not be used (a shot costs money), only spears.
  7. Please, wait, don't do it! First ensure that the other hand fingerprint is able to unlock your smartphone. Otherwise how can we know the result?
  8. You can move to Italy to have both. https://edition.cnn.com/2023/03/31/tech/chatgpt-blocked-italy/index.html
  9. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tomorrow_War https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_of_Sciences_Glacier https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komsomolets_Island https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Severnaya_Zemlya The widest strait to cross to reach the continent is ~40 km wide, and the water is +2° C hot even in case of global warming. The sea fauna and polar bears would appreciate the unexpected cold snack. *** But even if some of the aliens had reached the land, in the Napoleon epoch the humans had a large amount of expendable bioresource - the peasants. Being combined with guns and cannons, they would crush the aliens even by mass.
  10. Standard Soviet cafe juice dispensers and Minuteman warheads.
  11. Yes, this soup is K-classified. You don't have permissions to eat it. Bartender! Does the cockroach swimming in the juice mean that it's beetlejuice?
  12. Banned because I'm not able to recolor your signature into red, blue, green, or any other color.
  13. Banned for sending Kerbals into dangerous areas full of krakens.
  14. Banned for sending Kerbals in a capsule with no deorbit engine and parachutes.
  15. Floor 3329: A bakery selling carbon snacks (due to stove overheat) to consume them with the bottled oxygen.
  16. Here on the forum there was a discussion, if the cats drink milk. The very idea of cats not drinking the milk sounds monstrously for a Russian, as the cats and the milk are synonyms. The humans were domesticated by cats to milk the cows for them. And the Milky Way is called so to let the people remember their duties. (Btw there should be zodiacal constellations of Fridge and Litter Box, instead of those stupid figures). Probably, the cats share this point of view and see where the people operate properly, In both The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath and The Cats of Ulthar the cats are milked, Lovecraft blessed this. So, yes, it's a cosmic relationship. P.S. Just thought. Aries, Taurus, Capricorn, Pisces - cat food (btw, zodiac starts and ends with cat food, because to feed the cat is very important) Gemini - the kittens Cancer, Scorpio - scratching posts, also - various critters to hunt, sometimes hurting Leo - the cat Virgo - a catgirl, a girl companion of the cat Libra - the litter box, the scale to measure the cat food in a market, also cats just love a fine balance Aquarius - cat bath, usually hated, at the same time - the drinker Sagittarius - cat bites, also vaccination, usually hated So, the zodiacal sequence looks like: Ari - cat eats Tau - cat eats Gem - cats pet and play Can - cat scratches something Leo - cat licks themselves Vir - cat gets petted Lib - cat visits toilet Sco - cat scratches something Sag - cat bites the girl Cap - cat eats Aqu - girls makes the cat to have a bath in revenge, or washes what the cat did around the litter box Pis - cat eats This is repeated between the cat sleeps.
  17. They finally have watched Konanykhin and realized in what where they are...
  18. That's to make the parents watch his videos together with kids as a parental control.
