@WoodshopHandman She even made the doors historically accurate. I'm impressed.

@Shadowbroker2135 @Godcast @Turkleton The real war is on the economic front with the west. A quick end to the war gives them chance to quietly row back sanctions. A protracted war forces the west to continue its suicidal policies as it is incapable of accepting loss of face.

@deprecated_ii Funnily enough i noticed this recently when my daughter had a cut.Literally everything is a pale, shitty imitation of what it used to be. Nothing works properly, nothing lasts anymore: it all sucks.

@Xenophon @dave That has to be one of the most egregious examples of it I have ever seen. Each and every graph is using wildly different ranges with no consistency at all.

@Shadowbroker2135 @mushroom_soup My son played through Fenyx: Immortals Rising recently, and I quite liked the way they handled it in that game. You unlock new weapons/armour and visual variations in the normal manner, but can then choose to have any item display using any unlocked visual.

@LordMordred Crossbows, like guns, were not seen as the weapons of a warrior. You can train a peasant to wield a crossbow in an afternoon. It takes a lifetime to master a bow.

@DonFer1140 @WhiteDissidentRadio Sven went off on some retarded rant about how the anti-vaxxers are making him get ill, that they should have locked down China style, and that anyone who was concerned about small businesses is a retard because small businesses shouldn't exist as global mega-corporations are more efficient, and mom and pop stores only serve Jewish interests.TLDR: Sven was retarded, same as normal.odysee.com/@altmedia96:2/sven-is-sick-covid-and-vaccine-conspiracies:b

@WhiteDissidentRadio @DonFer1140 I just don't trust them.I did sign up for the paywall briefly a little before covid. I used a brand new email address and a password unrelated to anything I had ever used to open a coinbase account to send bitcoin for payment. Stupidly, I used the same email and password for my trs account. Within 10 minutes of sending them the bitcoin my 2FA on coinbase pinged with a new login attempt.

The fact that the IMO now allows ships to sail without paper charts is an absolute joke.ECDIS is utter wank. I made a decent living training people how to use them, and I still hate it.

Generally, anything up there that isn't a celestial body isn't going to cause you any problems for celestial nav for a couple of reasons:1. They move too quickly to get a sextant reading from. You are looking through a small telescope with a very narrow field of view and trying to precisely match it to a reflected horizon. That takes a bit of time.2. You need to identify your star before shooting it. None of the calculations will give you anything useful if you don't identify the body correctly. Most navigators learn a couple of dozen major stars and their positions within constellations.

If you aren't bothered about whether they are in working condition, nauticalia generally goes for buttons at antique auctions.

@Publius2 @LorgarAurelian1488 @ImperialAgent @DK_Dharmaraj @Dwight88 @RhodesianRoadEngineer @RowdyRamzan @WhiteDissidentRadio @SneedsterSpeedster This.A good example over here is training new doctors. There are somewhere around 30,000 applicants to study medicine per year. The vast majority of those are capable of doing it. The government caps places at 7,500 and then imports 3rd-worlders to make up the shortfall.NHS doctors trained outside the UK are between 6 and 10 times more likely to be involved in a malpractice case.

@Tovarish_Pedal @WashedOutGundamPilot @Eiregoat @Rayfield It is an entirely mechanical, yet very accurate time piece that was essential to deep sea navigation prior to GPS.Having accurate time-keeping is required for running by dead reckoning (we have gone for x time, in y direction, therefore should be in position y) and for accurate calculation of a ship's position by sighting stars.To take an accurate celestial fix you need an accurate time and a rough idea of your ships position (within a few hundred miles works, but the closer the better).Effectively you compare what you DO observe in the sky at your true position against what you SHOULD observe in your estimated position at the same time. The difference between observation and reality allows you to calculate your true position.

@IsraelDelendaEst @MeBigbrain @SuperLutheran @Victor_Emmanuel @WhiteDissidentRadio @GodkingAlexander @UnityOstara @Xenophon @Hikari @Groomschild @Godcast The CofE had the ability to dodge it all due to the influence of the Anglican Communion (affiliated Churches primarily in former colonies) if they actually wanted to.The Church of Angola doesn't want tranny buttsex God. The CofE has chosen to shatter that communion instead.

@IsraelDelendaEst @MeBigbrain @SuperLutheran @Victor_Emmanuel @WhiteDissidentRadio @GodkingAlexander @UnityOstara @Xenophon @Hikari @Groomschild @Godcast I'm just interested to note where you got the idea that the CofE doesn't want to embrace woke nonsense.No-one forced them to start sidelining the Anglo-Catholic element. No-one forced them to refuse to allow people like Bishop North to be promoted to a meaningful diocese.No one forced them to remove people like me from the ordination process because he was my sponsoring Bishop and I wasn't willing to change my stance on female ordination (one that is theoretically still allowable in their framework but is being weeded out in a long-game).
