There are a couple, but they don’t roam very far.

That’s just the new range staffer holding the target. Materials are expensive with the tariffs and all, so you gotta cut costs somewhere.

That is an amazing little ad hoc study!

That’s Austin 3:16

It’s better, but still horrible in its own special way.

Black and gray flags are used by the US military on some uniforms. Civilians also sometimes display them as “no quarter” flags, meaning the person displaying the flag will show no mercy to any perceived enemies. For both of these reasons the right-wing nationalist crowd likes them.

iPhones are actually designed in the US. My point is that the phrase is almost certainly a lie in this case.

Another commented mentioned this is from a US distributor that repackages Baofeng products.

But to be honest, there are so many Baofeng/BTech radios for sale on the internet I was never confident about which were legit and which were knock-offs. I just went for it and hoped for the best. They seem to work fine, at least so far.

Yeah. I have seen the monochromatic flag referred to as a “no quarter” flag, and initially wondered if that was the intent. Or maybe they just wanted to minimize colors to reduce printing costs.

That’s really interesting! I had no idea, but I am not surprised.

That was glorious!

Depending on the field, later in your career you can often skip the spreadsheets and get away with just saying, “That looks close enough,.” If you have enough seniority people will assume you know what you’re talking about.

For boxing specifically, it is absolutely part of the fighters’ marketing strategies.

For sports in general, trash talking during a game is “real.” Extended beefs that get major media coverage might be intentionally played up for publicity.

Depends how high into the triple digits, whether there’s shade and water available, how humid it is, whether air conditioning is an option, etc.

I would probably choose triple digits. I do love cold winters, but a dry 104F with a cool place to swim and big, shady trees is splendid. Beyond about 110F gets miserable, though.

That’s the power of consent!

The trend toward subdued color palettes. Every new home is decorated in “millennial gray.” Most cars are black, white, gray, or silver. You have to go out of your way to find bright, colorful clothing or furniture. It’s incredibly boring and I can’t wait for the pendulum to swing back the other way.

Free is good, of course. But I also have some gripes about how Band functions so I’m interested to see what else is out there. Thanks for the Campfire recommendation; I will check it out.
