Such alliteration. I’m in awe. Like 6 B words in a row and not one of them is bitch.

Amazing.

Stopping someone with a knife is very difficult.

In my youth I used to fight Muay Thai professionally and did so for about ten years. I would be very confident taking on a random person in fisticuffs but I would rank my chances against someone with a knife very, very poorly.

Knives give an obvious reach advantage. Also just one nasty slice or one well placed stab and you’re fucked where generally most people will take a few well placed strikes to stop. The odds just aren’t in your favour.

Basically the safest thing to do against someone with a knife is run for your life or get your hands on a weapon that’s longer than the knife if you can’t run.

40 built total, some exported with roughly 7 active in the Russian air force according to Wikipedia. Cost to build around $330M.

From what I understand the reality after the last one was downed is that there were probably 4 left active with the rest being used for parts because of sanctions.

Absolutely savage work.

“Hey Vasquez… Have you ever been mistaken for a man?”

“No. Have you?”

Top ten movie zinger for me. Delivered perfectly. Loved her character so much.

In fairness the setup was absolutely beautiful. She’s some woman for the zingers.

Unfortunately they’ll still see population growth…

That means 65% or more of a wild pig population could be killed every year and it will still increase, Brook said. Hunting just makes the problem worse, he said. The success rate for hunters is only about 2% to 3% and several states have banned hunting because it makes the pigs more wary and nocturnal — tougher to track down and eradicate.

Really nice summary. Heads up you say Pakistani instead of Palestinian a few times.

Never knew about the Uganda thing. Fascinating. Must read more on that.

We’re either alone as an intelligent species in this galaxy or the great filter is true

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Filter

Even with our current level of technology which has gone from first flight to landing on the moon in just 66 years we could colonize the entire galaxy in 200 million years which is a blink of an eye.

I think life is common but humans are special or we’re fucked.
