As someone from Georgia the State, that voice and personality very accurate with us always waking up sounding like we choose violence in the morning after watching some Duke of Hazzard.
Georgia native as well. Can't say that is a familiar state of mind but I've also been away from home for the last 10 years. XD I know we can be fiesty though when a situation calls for it!
HLC- ‘Just felt like killing a satellite with a boat’ Kid- ‘Now a BOAT is getting more action than me?!’ Just a tip USAF if you don’t want the kid downing ALL of the Russian satellites, best to put another pad lock on the hanger 😂
HLC you should do a vid on the Peacekeeper Advanced Inertial Reference Sphere, one of the most precise and accurate mechanical gyro's ever designed, it also looks like the warp core of a starship.
"The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation." Sorry, I had to post it.
Yeah HLC, I heard today that Lockheed and Ray-Ray are working on integrating Patriot pac 3 into Ageis for ships to launch them. Allegedly testing on land was successful and next step is testing at sea.
2:02 The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
In regards to not needing GPS: "The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation"
@omnipresentl1316 Simo also outlived the soviet union . Poetic justice my father almost named me simo in his honor but went with the Americanized name of his father toumas who fought in the winter war.
I'm waiting for his Finland character to say," Sniper rifles check, ammo check, Putin's lapdogs check, beer & pretzels,,,,, BEER & PRETZELS,,,,,,,there's no party without beer & pretzels!" Poland say's did he just say article 5, calm down Poland that Vodka slurping bozo is just playing wack-a-mole against an octopus.
For context, Simo Häyhä was a Finnish sniper in 1939-1940 in the winter war with the Soviet Union. In less than 100 days, he confirmed more than 500 kills and they didn't count kills that couldn't be verified or that multiple snipers shot at. The only reason he quit was because he was injured by an exploding bullet that hit his jaw and basically put him in a coma for a week while lying in a pile of bodies because they thought he was gone. He averaged 5 kills per day during that 100 day period. Sometimes more, sometimes less. But the man is an absolute legend and considered to be the deadliest sniper in history. I say let the Finns have some fun and try to beat his records. We'll give them whatever they need without even needing the government to step in. 😃
Let's also remember that the guy was doing all that with iron sights because he thought a scope could give away his position. Imagine what he could do with a Barret at 1 mile out, if he was shooting today.
This guy's entire channel is just him having arguements with himself in the shower, then making a comedy of it online. And it's bloody brilliant, keep it coming bud!
As a Georgian I am happy about the cameo, I would like to hear your Georgian accent though. The law is very bad though, it is meant to silence everyone who isn't liked by the government. To put it simply, the only credible information source for the government, will be the government itself so if somebody does an independent study, the government can say: oh this is a foreign agent and so their info is flawed. They can run whatever narrative they want and you can't legally disprove them. This mimics Russian law which was passed in Russia back in 2012 so that's why it's called the Russian law. Georgian people will not tolerate this and there have been mass protests here for more than a month now and we all have immunity to tear gas already lol. P.S Can we have the kid for a couple of hours? please? I promise he'll have fun.
Support here from an American who's been following Georgia (the country) since those massive protests against this same law last year! Hopefully, it doesn't pass, after your president vetos it, again. 🙏🇬🇪🔥🫡🇪🇺
@Goodladsatan I've been on Twitter trying to share your struggles. We'll continue to support the fight for freedom from tyranny and oppression from the russian maniacs!
Points of information - 1) There's no way a Low Earth Orbit ASAT can threaten the GPS Constellation, or anything higher, like Geosynchronous Comsats, or the Missile Launch Detection Stuff - the transfer orbits required take hours, and can't be hidden, so there's plenty of warning, and a small velocity change on the target (Which is obvious from the trajectory of the attacker) will ensure a miss. We do it all the time ro avoid Space Junk. We're talking Orbital Mechanics, not TV here. 2) When the Lake Erie nailed that busted Recon Satellite, they weren't only aiming at the target, but selected what part of the target to hit. We're talking about something the size of a Cafeteria Refrigerator, zipping along at 17,000 Freedom Miles per Hour, with its closest approach being more than 100 miles. 3) I like the Finns. They kick Russian butt and scare the Swedes.
Plus, for point 1, there are several satellites and only one of these weapons up there, plus iirc built replacements sitting on the ground along with launch companies paid money specifically to always be ready to integrate and launch an emergency payload in 48 hours. Stuff also needs to be able to work without GPS anyway because radio jamming is a thing. At worst, some stuff would work less well.
I like how he totally glossed over that Estonia (NATO member and just across the bay from Finland) would get in on the action even before the Finns. Not only is uZZia trying to fuck with them, a lot of the redrawing was around one of our cities, Narva. The Battle of Narva and the Tannenberg lines probably have VERY bitter memories for those assholes in the east.
Add in, there's a reason shooting down satellites, even ones that belong to nations your at war with is a big no-no. That reason is "if you do it, so will I" and results in all orbital infrastructure being destroyed in short order.
And there is Larry Thorne AKA Lauri Törni, the Finn who took the phrase "Fuck Communism" and turned it into a lifestyle. See the song "Soldier of 3 Armies" for more!
Just so you know: the Georgian people are protesting that law and calling it the Russia Law due to its similarities to the way Putin nationalized the news
I think another issue they have with the law is that it may not cover media outlets propped up by the Georgia government that also take foreign influence investing.
It allows government mouthpieces to be funded by their despot of choice with no restrictions AFAIK, so double standards law, defs not about a free press or good journalism. It also effectively stopped their progress towards joining the EU.
I heard the cockpit voice recorder, translated. Pilot: "We're having engine trouble. I'll land on the mountain." Voice 2: "Land on the mountain! What is it?" Pilot: "A high point of land caused by plate tectonics and volcanoes, but that's not important right now."
Inertia guidance, check. No jamming/spoofing that tech. Gravity density mapping via SQUID, check. Been on our submarines for decades. There might be a third thing, but my fingers aren't authorized to type that sh*t.
I imagine 35 dropping the news accidentally. Then utter silence from buff, f16, c130, ships, sams, everything. Then f22 just kinda has a building scream! Alarm bells in the us, Japan starts crying and incoherently babbling about boats, the uk is missing (you just hear running footsteps and a door closing), and russia acts like Russia and says it’s no big deal.
The Kid has enough stress, don't do that. Reassure the Kid it seems the Rooskie or "The Great China" are getting ready to unwrap their "FAFO" subscriptions.
I dont really understand the Aegis joke as I was Air defense. However, this dude was an NCO at the academy while i was a student there and a lot of his soldiers that were in his classes absolutely loved his humor. I would imagine aegis is pretty good at knowing where everyone is at all the time because their capabilities make patriot look like child's play.
But Patriot is produced at a ratio of 5 to 1 missiles compared to what is used in Aegis.... Oh, what is that? oh I see.... Mmmm... That is great. Patriot's missiles just got cleared for use of Arleigh Burkes. China? What about that missile gap?
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't. Arriving at a position that it wasn't, it now is.

Hi, Finn here, and yeah, like resurrection said, we aren't vikings or norese... BUT, there are stories of Vikings steering clear of us because they thought we had legit magic, so y'know, still a flex.
On an unrelated note, don't fuck with Canada either, apparently. And not because of the US. Apparently, Canada's done some stuff that makes the US go: "WHAT THE ACTUAL F---..."?
I mean, "Jet Gun" sounds like an anime superweapon. Probably a giant robot -- we've already seen Jet Jaguar, Jet Alone... I'm sure I'm forgetting at least one.
I mean gyro jet weapons are only a few leaps in design away from having a realistic version of a 40k bolter gun as is. You know what let’s do that let’s bring back gyro jet weapons this shouldn’t go off the rails that bad.😎
You should look into the Georgia law more. There is actually a lot protests because it is very similar to a Russian law. Also Georgian media laws make it where non-state owned media is very unprofitable. Warographics has a great video on it
Jokes aren’t always to be taken to literally and sometimes there is a small snippet of good in a bad law. Labeling financing in free democratic society with freedom of the press. Would be a good thing. Labeling financing for a small recently liberated country from totalitarianism with a huge totalitarian bully right next door, not so much.
That plane was basically a UFO. It was ridiculous! The ingenuity of humans is amazing. Sadly we're at our smartest shooting things or building porn networks.
"The missile knows where it is all times. It knows this because it knows where it isnt. By subtrating where it is from where it isnt or where it isnt from where it is (whichever is greater) it obtains a difference or deviation" Thats a cult classic.
So your telling me the US military looked at their childrend's Nerf guns and BB guns and thought... 'we could make those more lethal' That is some DIY Uncle vibes right there.
We actually tried this before. Look up U.S.S Vesuvius. It was an experimental ship that saw some shore bombardment missions during the Spanish American war.
The military industrial complex has no shame when it comes to lethalizing formerly benign tools, toys, activities, etc. Gotta love the creativity. 🤣🤣🤣 Waiting for Barbie & Ken! 😆😆

I thought he was going to announce that in the spirit of the A10, and the AC130, that we were going to build another aircraft that only exists in order to make a gun fly.
Jet guns... Well... I'm gonna tell him they're reinventing something The Gyrojet is a family of unique firearms developed in the 1960s named for the method of gyroscopically stabilizing its projectiles. Rather than inert bullets, Gyrojets fire small rockets called Microjets which have little recoil and do not require a heavy barrel or chamber to resist the pressure of the combustion gases. Velocity on leaving the tube was very low, but increased to around 1,250 feet per second (380 m/s) at 30 feet (9.1 m). The result is a very lightweight and transportable weapon. Long out of production, today they are a coveted collector's item with prices for even the most common model ranging above $1,000. They are rarely fired; ammunition, when available at all, can cost over $200 per round.
Fun fact! Poland is building an "Estern Shield" on the border with Belarus and Russia. It's been described in the Polish media as a "Korean DMZ in Poland". another fun fact is that people who made the actual Korean DMZ are involved in making of the "Estern Shield"
@@MikMoenI mean, the idea behind Maginot line was to funnel Germans into Belgium, where rest of the army could deal with them - I guess in this case it would be Królewiec and Belarus
For those wondering: There are many navigational techniques, many of which are centuries old, that don't require GPS and still be automated on a computer. GPS is just the easiest. There are so many things you can do with a sextant, a compass, and a clock. Also, if astronomers and astrophysicists can figure out there's an extra planet in the solar system because "the planets aren't moving quite right" (look up how we found Uranus), the US Military probably has the mathematical capability to accurately plot point A to point B on our well surveyed planet. Newton's Laws are wonderful and don't break down until you start reaching a fraction of the speed of light. Disclaimer: This is my wild ass guess from what science I know.
From what science I know it's quite plausible. I am a scientist, though my fields lend more to chemistry and wildlife management. (Just for credentials, though no one believes a self-proclaimed "expert" on this platform) Yeah, we've spotted several distant objects based on mapping the paths moved and finding that there are effects from gravity wells of objects we don't know about. We literally say "Huh, based on this movement there should be an x sized object right...there." As for sextant, compass, and clock, anyone trained in land navigation can fairly easily navigate the planet without GPS. We've been doing it on a large scale for centuries. Only question I have is how familiar are our militaries in it? I am certain it is taught, but I assume it is taught as an emergency thing if the hundred and one ways the military uses tech to do it all fail, so I imagine most soldiers are rusty. Maybe I am wrong. I learned it in the scouts. Ooh, and yes, Newton's laws work well for most things. Need to be a fairly high fraction of the speed of light to see any significant deterioration. They also don't accurately explain a lot of things on a quantum scale. We have 2 rules of physics, one for a macro scale, one on a micro scale. Both explain their perspective well but not the other. Many scientists wish to find the laws that unify these. (Incredibly simplified explanation)
@@mentaya11Can only speak for the Girl Scouts, but “back in my day” we were taught orienteering in Girl Scouts and even had competitions to see who could find all of the flags first. Nowadays, according to my sources, the Girl Scouts learn GPS. (Which just seems reckless. I’m sure the U.S. military’s GPS is better than what’s available to civilians, but the GPS available to Girl Scouts has a lot blank spots.) I’ve nothing against teaching GPS as a tool-just maybe teach it to girls as part of a broader skill set?
@@wanderingaceminecraftandmo8034 Helsinki alone has what is basically an underground city that can house up to 900k people. Also almost every church, supermarket and apartment building is by law required to have a Bomb shelter in it. Also Finns build Bridges with spots for mines so engineers can easily detonate and collapse them. Roads leading to east are built in such a manner that they make a funnel if you happen to cross the border AND some tunnels are built through bedrock so they can be blocked easily as well slowing an advance. Highways can be used as landing strips for aircraft. And so much more. Attacking Finland is like attacking a fortress the size of a nation
@@wanderingaceminecraftandmo8034 When everyone else prepared for nuclear war with just diplomacy, we Finns also made bomb shelters. Since nukes never stopped being a thing, we never stopped making bomb shelters.

@@colbunkmust The idea itself was theoretically sound, it just didn't have enough spin once it left the barrel to maintain it's trajectory IIRC. Better propellants, and stabilizing fins to aid in that should go a long way.
@@Chokah The very nature of the "gyro" component was to induce stabilization through the spin of the propellant, so if you're using fin stabilization instead, then the design would be nothing like the gyrojet. Also, there are lots of ideas are theoretically sound that don't work in practice. Communism is theoretically sound, but that doesn't make me want to more to the DPRK.
probably caseless ammo with some sort of gas or fuel in a superheated combustion chamber, like an engine block, only it moves projectiles instead of pistons. Or maybe a super potato gun. what would be amazing is if they figured out how to use atmospheric gas to get the combustion, so all you would need would be power, like it sucks in the air around it and then compresses it till it goes off.
Man you are hitting it out of the ball park. You are the best thing on You Tube. Love the insider jokes for our guys running Aegis. I served in the silent service decades ago and will take those secrets to my grave.
" Do maps, protractors, and compasses not work anymore?" Unfortunately I have experienced that attitude from junior officers and NCOs when the PLUGGER was feilded in the early 90's. Meanwhile I was plotting mortar fires on a MRE box because of skills I acquired from some highly proficient NCOs at my first unit. High angle hell!
I used to lead our tank road marches because I was the most proficient at mounted land nav, back in the day (pre-GPS). They always made me do it and I always thought, what will they do when I PCS? So, once in a while, I'd pretend to have engine problems and pull over to wait for maintenance. Then you'd see everyone else scrambling for their maps to figure out where they were. Never failed and they always ended up 'not headed in the correct direction'. 1 time my LT even called over the radio and informed me to trade places with another TC so I could continue the mission. Mind you, this was a test requirement (mounted land navigation), you had to pass, in BNCOC, so most of the tank commanders had been to this school. I betcha this still holds true to this day.
@@JosephHenry-l5e That wouldn't surprise me. In both cases. Land Navigation, whether mounted or dismounted, seems to be a skill that too many seem to forget the moment they leave basic. Seriously, some of these people, and I include more than a few sergeants in that (LTs are a given), could get lost in an open room with nothing in it.
@@jgkitarel I left the military over 20 years ago, I still know how to use land nav I learned and aced during pldc and bnoc. I make sure my son knows how to do it too.
@@gator8639 Yeah, that knowledge tends to stay with you. Aced it in PLDC (which was the last PLDC course run at Camp Jackson, South Korea), aced it in Basic, aced it... you get where I'm going. Never failed a land nav course in my life, and more than a few covered quite a bit of space. It just boggled me how many seemed to suck so badly at it, when that was considered a core skill and was tested every year. And this was after the refresher training to ensure that the skill was fresh in everyone's minds. Can't fix stupid, or even train it out of people, I guess. Haven't done it in over a decade, not since I left the Army after eleven years, and know that I would need to spend a bit of time to refamiliarize myself with it, but I still know how to use a map, compass, and protractor. Hell, my dad retired more than thirty years ago, and I bet he still remembers how to do it.
Indeed. Like most sinister things, it only sounds good. But that breaks down when you realize that it'll be the government implementing this. A government that has a vested interest in labeling certain dissenters as "unpatriotic." If you trust any government to apply a law equally, then I got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
and it's basically a copy of russia's same law, but Georgia is run by a russian oligarch so it's no surprise to people in that region, unfortunately for them. they're protesting like hell against it. they're a lot braver than the russian citizens that sit at home and pout
@@ame7165 The consequences for protesting in Georgia, admittedly, is a little less grave than for Russians. (Though recently it’s getting to those levels, so at this point who knows). I will say that there’s just a lot of Russians who have been brainwashed since birth and just believe whatever is spouted on Russian state tv which is *very* unfortunate. But yes, the *amazing* amount of people and especially younger generation who are fighting for their country is awesome.

Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.
In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.
The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.

For context, Simo Häyhä was a Finnish sniper in 1939-1940 in the winter war with the Soviet Union. In less than 100 days, he confirmed more than 500 kills and they didn't count kills that couldn't be verified or that multiple snipers shot at. The only reason he quit was because he was injured by an exploding bullet that hit his jaw and basically put him in a coma for a week while lying in a pile of bodies because they thought he was gone. He averaged 5 kills per day during that 100 day period. Sometimes more, sometimes less. But the man is an absolute legend and considered to be the deadliest sniper in history. I say let the Finns have some fun and try to beat his records. We'll give them whatever they need without even needing the government to step in. 😃

As a Georgian I am happy about the cameo, I would like to hear your Georgian accent though. The law is very bad though, it is meant to silence everyone who isn't liked by the government. To put it simply, the only credible information source for the government, will be the government itself so if somebody does an independent study, the government can say: oh this is a foreign agent and so their info is flawed. They can run whatever narrative they want and you can't legally disprove them. This mimics Russian law which was passed in Russia back in 2012 so that's why it's called the Russian law. Georgian people will not tolerate this and there have been mass protests here for more than a month now and we all have immunity to tear gas already lol.

@Goodladsatan I've been on Twitter trying to share your struggles. We'll continue to support the fight for freedom from tyranny and oppression from the russian maniacs!
Points of information -
1) There's no way a Low Earth Orbit ASAT can threaten the GPS Constellation, or anything higher, like Geosynchronous Comsats, or the Missile Launch Detection Stuff - the transfer orbits required take hours, and can't be hidden, so there's plenty of warning, and a small velocity change on the target (Which is obvious from the trajectory of the attacker) will ensure a miss. We do it all the time ro avoid Space Junk. We're talking Orbital Mechanics, not TV here.
2) When the Lake Erie nailed that busted Recon Satellite, they weren't only aiming at the target, but selected what part of the target to hit. We're talking about something the size of a Cafeteria Refrigerator, zipping along at 17,000 Freedom Miles per Hour, with its closest approach being more than 100 miles.
3) I like the Finns. They kick Russian butt and scare the Swedes.
Plus, for point 1, there are several satellites and only one of these weapons up there, plus iirc built replacements sitting on the ground along with launch companies paid money specifically to always be ready to integrate and launch an emergency payload in 48 hours. Stuff also needs to be able to work without GPS anyway because radio jamming is a thing. At worst, some stuff would work less well.
I like how he totally glossed over that Estonia (NATO member and just across the bay from Finland) would get in on the action even before the Finns.
Not only is uZZia trying to fuck with them, a lot of the redrawing was around one of our cities, Narva.
The Battle of Narva and the Tannenberg lines probably have VERY bitter memories for those assholes in the east.
@@rohesilmnelohe Shit I should probably check on Arthur then, I didn't even hear about this till this vid tbh.
Add in, there's a reason shooting down satellites, even ones that belong to nations your at war with is a big no-no. That reason is "if you do it, so will I" and results in all orbital infrastructure being destroyed in short order.
And there is Larry Thorne AKA Lauri Törni, the Finn who took the phrase "Fuck Communism" and turned it into a lifestyle.

Isn't it sweet that no foreign country will ever influence that beautiful country again? Except for Russia of course.
I think another issue they have with the law is that it may not cover media outlets propped up by the Georgia government that also take foreign influence investing.
It allows government mouthpieces to be funded by their despot of choice with no restrictions AFAIK, so double standards law, defs not about a free press or good journalism.

Jet guns... Well... I'm gonna tell him they're reinventing something
The Gyrojet is a family of unique firearms developed in the 1960s named for the method of gyroscopically stabilizing its projectiles. Rather than inert bullets, Gyrojets fire small rockets called Microjets which have little recoil and do not require a heavy barrel or chamber to resist the pressure of the combustion gases. Velocity on leaving the tube was very low, but increased to around 1,250 feet per second (380 m/s) at 30 feet (9.1 m). The result is a very lightweight and transportable weapon.
Long out of production, today they are a coveted collector's item with prices for even the most common model ranging above $1,000. They are rarely fired; ammunition, when available at all, can cost over $200 per round.
Fun fact!

For those wondering: There are many navigational techniques, many of which are centuries old, that don't require GPS and still be automated on a computer. GPS is just the easiest. There are so many things you can do with a sextant, a compass, and a clock.
Also, if astronomers and astrophysicists can figure out there's an extra planet in the solar system because "the planets aren't moving quite right" (look up how we found Uranus), the US Military probably has the mathematical capability to accurately plot point A to point B on our well surveyed planet. Newton's Laws are wonderful and don't break down until you start reaching a fraction of the speed of light.
Disclaimer: This is my wild ass guess from what science I know.
From what science I know it's quite plausible. I am a scientist, though my fields lend more to chemistry and wildlife management. (Just for credentials, though no one believes a self-proclaimed "expert" on this platform) Yeah, we've spotted several distant objects based on mapping the paths moved and finding that there are effects from gravity wells of objects we don't know about. We literally say "Huh, based on this movement there should be an x sized object right...there."
As for sextant, compass, and clock, anyone trained in land navigation can fairly easily navigate the planet without GPS. We've been doing it on a large scale for centuries. Only question I have is how familiar are our militaries in it? I am certain it is taught, but I assume it is taught as an emergency thing if the hundred and one ways the military uses tech to do it all fail, so I imagine most soldiers are rusty. Maybe I am wrong. I learned it in the scouts.
Ooh, and yes, Newton's laws work well for most things. Need to be a fairly high fraction of the speed of light to see any significant deterioration. They also don't accurately explain a lot of things on a quantum scale. We have 2 rules of physics, one for a macro scale, one on a micro scale. Both explain their perspective well but not the other. Many scientists wish to find the laws that unify these. (Incredibly simplified explanation)

It just boggled me how many seemed to suck so badly at it, when that was considered a core skill and was tested every year.
And this was after the refresher training to ensure that the skill was fresh in everyone's minds. Can't fix stupid, or even train it out of people, I guess. Haven't done it in over a decade, not since I left the Army after eleven years, and know that I would need to spend a bit of time to refamiliarize myself with it, but I still know how to use a map, compass, and protractor. Hell, my dad retired more than thirty years ago, and I bet he still remembers how to do it.
Georgian law is actually quite questionable.
Authoritarian regimes all over the world use similar laws to oppress their opposition media.
Indeed. Like most sinister things, it only sounds good. But that breaks down when you realize that it'll be the government implementing this. A government that has a vested interest in labeling certain dissenters as "unpatriotic."
If you trust any government to apply a law equally, then I got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
and it's basically a copy of russia's same law, but Georgia is run by a russian oligarch so it's no surprise to people in that region, unfortunately for them. they're protesting like hell against it. they're a lot braver than the russian citizens that sit at home and pout
@@ame7165 The consequences for protesting in Georgia, admittedly, is a little less grave than for Russians. (Though recently it’s getting to those levels, so at this point who knows). I will say that there’s just a lot of Russians who have been brainwashed since birth and just believe whatever is spouted on Russian state tv which is *very* unfortunate.
But yes, the *amazing* amount of people and especially younger generation who are fighting for their country is awesome.
Oh shit! "Life to your president" made me spit out my drink! That was the best come back to their chant! 😂
Happy to see the Georgia state get a cameo we’re dying from lack of interest here
Just wait until the elections start. Media will be jacking you off like crazy for the next couple weeks once they do.
I was _delighted_ to see that we got our 5 seconds in the limelight. Now, of course, I must politely request more.
Yes more of good ol GA
Gyro Jet 2.0 baby!
We see you Georgia, best wishes from the UK.
When the snow has a funny dialect, it is time to start backtracking back home 😂
"It uses hyper pressurized hot air."
Ah hell yeah let's go weaponize bending. Gotta start with Fire, fire of course so many destructive capabilities, maybe Air next Airbending is SO heckin OP and NO ONE RESPECTS IT (Gyatso and Yangchen out here showing why it's so dangerous love that for them). Then Earth we can just pull a Kyoshi and RAISE THE SEA FLOOR (this happened in her books via Avatar State GOD what a woman) then finally Water we can just pull a Katara and see about bloodbending some mfs.
A jet gun? With all the weaponry we have we could build a Gundam!
We don't have sustainable Fusion Reactors yet, so they would end up being those battery-powered ones from the SEED timeline. And I am way too poor and sober to deal with the idea of geneticly engineered super humans right now.
Form the shuffle alliance?
Giant robots of any variety would have to be scaled down to be practical, which is a good thing. Gundams and suits like it are too bulky. Something like the Macross robots are already possible, though. Not with transforming, but scale. You could just scale up a boston dynamics robot with a cockpit and you're there. 40 foot maybe? Still big and intimidating without wrecking cities by walking, and it wouldn't sink into the ground too far.
@@crazyjoeshorts5256God it is so cool to see Macross/Robotech get some love on an HLC video.
Wonder how hard it would be just to get the G and F configs working? The full Battleroid seems a little excessive and unnecessary for terrestrial combat, excluding the possibility by invasion from 40-foot tall extraterrestrial humanoids and the need to conduct infantry combat against.
@@barbatosmcmurderton4209no need. Fission works just fine. Just need a little more shielding. Anything smaller would run on diesel or LPG ICE or turbine electric w/ a small battery backup.
The US Navy is working on integrating PAC 3 onto its AEGIS destroyers and the missiles can be quad packed into its VLS... would love to hear your thoughts
When Finland asked for sniper rifles I was just waiting for Simo reference! As always you do NOT disappoint. A good day to you and yours and happy Memorial day!
Non-American here, so correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Memorial Day usually around the last weekend of May?
The 27 of this month is the last Monday in the month of May. That is how it is determined when memorial day and weekend occur. We honor thos who fallen in the line of duty and those that have served and currently are. Hope that clears it up a bit.
@@Austin1723 Yes, the day itself is the last Monday of May, but the whole weekend is considered "Memorial Day Weekend" (and the Indy 500 race always takes place on the Sunday before Memorial Day)
Finland: "I need some sniper rifles"
America: "Sure, bud. What optics do you want on 'em?"
Finland: "Just the sniper rifles."
A battle of wits!
Russia: KYS
America: 44.419°N 38.205°E
"Look at you, telling the truth and shit.." Priceless!!!!!!😆😆😆
Russia: "Wait! NO!"😨
Ah yes, we’ve come full circle from muskets to automatic weapons to freaking steroid abusing Nerf Guns 🤣
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't.
