The mystery of the vatnik penguin has been solved. Turns out a Russian company is selling these as “protection from thermal imaging”
Is there any advantage to this design or is it a complete scam to rip off mobils?
Well, yeah, Ukraine makes them as well, there was no mystery. Welcome to 2026.
if it doesn't work do you get your money back?
>>64823107yes, lost limbs not covered
>>64823084
>>64823089I think the retailer just got asked if it hides people from thermals and they said yes because its easy money to claim something knowing that the people wearing it can't afford thermals and are going to end up rotting in a field
>>64823084Penguin meta in season 2026?
>>64823089Thermal cloaks work just fine, but they heat up over long periods and become redundant if you've already been detected.
>>64823084There never was a mystery you hyperbolic retard. People were claiming they don't know because pretending to be stupid is considered funny on this board nowadays.
>>64823120My shitpost was tapestry worthy? Honored, truly.
>>64823252>you seem pretty upset, is everything ok?
looks like endgame equipment in an MMO that makes you beg on the forums for a transmog item.
>>64823679>I was merely pretending to be retarded
>>64823084Would someone just link the online webstore?
>>64823252>There never was a mystery you hyperbolic retardThere was a solid day or two when we didn't know, when the first penguin dropped.
>>64824408idk it seemed pretty clear that it was an evolution of vidrel
>>64824425vidrel is pretty good, when you are not moving. That is, when you're hidden before the drone arrives.
Dr. Ainslie explained that even if he caught the conscript and brought him back to his trench, he would immediately head right back for the front lines.... but why?
>>64824444Apparently that whole part of the documentary is a fabrication, the mountain is only 7km away and penguins do a bit of occasional exploration of their area to look for better nesting or feeding spots.
>>64823252Maybe. Or maybe this board is actually for morons, anybody who knows anything long left the site or simply doesn't engage with the ukraine hamster wheel. Or maybe the bots that pump the boards post count have their cache regularly cleared and therefore don't remember prior discussion of thermal ponchos. Assuming the people here are "merely pretending" is maybe too charitable.
>>64824498>penguins do a bit of occasional exploration of their area to look for better nesting or feeding spots.It's a sound evolutionary strategy to have a few individuals go try new things and see how it works out.
You'd think they'd be smart enough to only rely on it at night, when drones actually rely on thermals and it might provide some advantage.Instead of wandering around in an open field in daylight like a dickhead, where you can be seen even without thermals
>>64823252I'm not pretending you condescending, elitist asshole! You probably drive an Audi, you fucking prick!
>>64825083The literal Leaf Ericssons of the penguin world. Very literally viking penguins, in the Latin "Pinguini Viccingi or Pinguini Normanni". Which do we go with?
>>64825165>Pinguini ViccingiAvoid reference to the Normans, those are half French. Funnily enough, the Norman invasion is why Ukraine has a town called New York. Many defeated English aristocracy and soldiers fled to Constantinople and either joined the Varangian Guard or settled in Byzantine frontier regions around the Black Sea.Perfidious Anglos (literally Anglo-Saxon in this case) have a long history as a nemesis of the Mongol-Rus.
>>64826383>Varangian GuardDo they protect her or protect you from her?
>>64826688>Do they protect her or protect you from her?Her?Are you making a joke that I'm too historically illiterate to understand?Or do you just not know who the Varangian Guard are?https://warfarehistorynetwork.com/article/varangian-gaurd-of-the-byzantine-army/
>>64826722I know exactly who the Varangian Guard are. I applaud your accomplishment at being the most culturally isolated person on 4chan, it really shows a praiseworthy disregard for pop culture:
>>64824340>иo яëгциds*
>>64826735>the most culturally isolated personI didn't get it either.>>64826383>Ukraine has a town called New York.I didn't know this either, but that's why I come here. And to make penguin jokes in Latin.
>>64826735Is the flame thrower and chill catgirl called Varang?The movie isn't available undubbed here so I'll wait for the (non-cam) download.
>>64826870>I didn't know this either, but that's why I come hereI've climbed those steps. There's a London on the Black Sea too. Same story, Anglo-Saxon aristocracy fled to the Byzantine empire and settled amongst Saxons in Ukraine.
>>64826871>>64826870It is indeed a reference to a tall itty bitty titty flamethrower wielding totally not a cat girl.I am reasonably sure that /k/s Varangian Guard would be protecting her smile.
>>64826735Sorry I didn't watch your slop of the month.
>>64826912'Tis the highest grossing movie series in human history but it indeed is slop of the greatest order, the only redeeming features are quasi plausible mechs, exo-suits and of course the already mentioned pyromaniac cat girl. Otherwise it is utter shit.
>>64826954That's why I called it so, even the first movie, while very pretty, was suspiciously quickly forgotten.
>>64825083PGTOW
I do like hooded ponchos, however the stiffness makes it look like a prisoner's anti-suicide smock.
>>64826961Pretty much. they are great to look at but very forgettable. The only reason this one even gets mentioned is that they accidently made the bad guys the protagonists and gave them personalities unlike every other character in the series. I've watched it twice and i can't remember a single damn thing about it besides Quaritch, Varang and that the exo suits looked sort of plausible since they were small.It is honestly an achievement in it's own way; such a huge amount of effort to create a extremely visually impressive series with such boring and forgettable characters.
>>64826870Does that center hand rail have a safety rail around it?>safetyception
>>64826954>Otherwise it is utter shit.It is the most colorfull cowboys and indians apology film ever! Even more so than Cheyenne Autumn.
>>64826982>anti-suicide smock.>epstine suitThese never work.
>>64823107Yeah, plus you get a washing machine :)
>>64826988Appears. Even has rest pullouts for fattties. The Brits are extremely safety conscious, overly so imo. I think the USA has them beat for highwa safety. They will just close a road abruptly and offer no detour signage.>>64826873>I've climbed those stepsAwesome. More people should.
>>64826992I just need a nine foot tall evil alien catgirl for my anime harem, i need someone to bully Great Thunberg when i'm not around.
>>64826988>Does that center hand rail have a safety rail around it?Might be part of a chair lift mechanism.
>>64823107Nobody has written in with complaints, customer satisfaction is at 100%.
>>64826988>>64827326Its so its usable by both lanes of traffic at all times.If it was just the single rail pedestrians would have to let go momentarily to skip over other peoples hands.Its silly but thats how safety works. A hand rail only works if you are holding onto it.
>>64824498I thought this got explained years ago. The penguin will see the mountains and think it's the ocean because of the outline of the peaks looks like waves and ice. It's a dumb fucking bird so it just keeps walking, if it's the ocean it walks until it hits the water and the next instinct kicks in, which would be swim, the next instinct, detect fish shape, next instinct, feeding behavior. but it never reaches the water, because it's a mountain and no other instinct kicks it to change it's behavior so it just keeps walking like a robot until it dies or it turns around and sees the ocean and maybe the walk to ocean kicks in again.
>>64827326>Might be part of a chair lift mechanism.I never ever observed this in 5 months.>>64827349>Its so its usable by both lanes of traffic at all times.The "problem" was conflicting up/down traffic from countries that naturally drive on the proper side of the road. For anyone who does not grasp context, this is Clifford's Tower in the Eye of York, north Yorkshire, UK.
>>64827363I sincerely think you aren't giv8ng enough credit to a surviving species that actually thrives in the harshest climate on Earth. They may just have "bad days", too.
>>64827420>you aren't giv8ng enough credit to a surviving speciesIntelligence is only one of many possible survival strategies. Living where no land predators do is another one.
>>64827507Just saying respect thier feelings, bro
>>64827035Reject giant smurfs. Embrace "Call Me Joe".
>>64823252>pretending to be stupid is considered funny on this board nowadays.>>64824944>maybe this board is actually for moronsThose aren't mutually exclusive, which is why you two are mad but still here.
>>64826985>they accidently made the bad guys the protagonists and gave them personalitiesWhy are you so confident it was an accident?
>>64826997Or a couple bags of Cheetos... or maybe a Lada if you get lucky
>>64827944Step lada or extention lada?
>>64827891Because modern population control media cannot purposely create anything other than formulaic PC drivel.
>>64831773That's a very confidently asserted axiom.Are you sure such a sweeping generalisation shouldn't be supported by more than just your bourbon-fueled vibe as stoked by hours of cable news propaganda and targeted political persuasion?
>>64823654No you newfag retard, it’s an old meme about using car windows to block thermals. This is thanks for the Reddit gold levels of cringeLurk moar and run your mouth less you annoying piece of shit
>>64832048I am literally Carl Carwindows you idiot, i invented the meme years ago after noticing Apache thermal gun cameras didn't see through windshields that well. I also had one about making a radar stealth suit out of old VHS tape. Holy fuck are you 12?>>64831975No, i'm right. I don't need to support it, modern Hollywood sucks.
>>64832097>I am literally Carl CarwindowsYou need a life.
>>64832113I am suddenly reminded of the kid who got banned for calling moot a newfag, you are funny. Post hands and power outlet.
>>64832152Fuck off loser.
>>64832048lurk a year before you post, newfag. Norktard has been around for a long time.
>>64832173If i recall properly i started shitposting here back when i was hanging out in the GNAA IRC with Loli-Chan before everyone found out she wasn't pretending.
>>64823084thanks I was haunted by the possibility the ziggers were executing a civilian duct taped inside it
>>64832173>Norktard has been around for a long time.defective FBI sadly ICE should have deported him by now
What are the strategic benefits of having more fatalities than injuries in your casualties?https://united24media.com/latest-news/russian-military-deaths-surge-leaving-kremlin-short-of-troops-without-new-mobilization-15510
>>64832302Fewer Russians.
>>64826735She has a name?
>>64832237Oh you are that worst korean traitor who is butthurt that the coup failed and your wannabe dictator is up for execution for treason aren't you? You should be careful, 4chan was recently revealed as a intel collection tool and your new government probably thinks people like you are traitors now that Xi and Kim are their new friends. KNPA might be getting your IP at this very moment from the FBI you just invoked and the NIS could be knocking on your door soon. Remind of something; they are nowhere near as bad as the north but the RoK government still goes after your family right?
>>64826735I didn't know this referenced it but I've only seen half of the first. It was ok but I didn't finish it.
>>64832097No you arent you fucking liar. My buddy made that post while I was over at his house
>64832197>namefag's frame of reference is other namefag dramago die in a fire, you literal cancer
>>64832386>>64832408>Namefag drama>An anonymous joke made years ago and no namefags were involved >It was one post that some other anon made a joke drawing about about>no drama or namefags involved, everyone had a laugh and moved onYou are seriously outing yourself as a newfag, do you really think that no one can tell that in multiple threads you immediately post again pretending to be someone with the same ESL patterns pretending to agree with yourself?Anyone who has been here for more than a few months can instantly tell that you have no idea what you are talking about and are probably underaged.
>>64832445Why are you replying to me with all that shit. You are pretending that you made a post that I know for a fact someone else made. Unless you want to tell me you are my friend.
>>64832466And there he is again, no doubt by the time i'm done typing this or near enough you will post again claiming to be a separate person agreeing with yourself, no doubt using the same willful ignorance of what i wrote.See here how i know you are a newfag; no one who has been here for any length of time would argue with me like this since they know it is utterly pointless. Either they have a normal conversation with me or tell me to fuck off then ignore me. The mere fact that you think flinging shit at me will have any effect shows your complete and total ignorance.
>>64832478Are you having a schizo episode? This is me >>64832466 & me >>64832408 Why are you pretending to be my buddy?
>>64832445Are you intentionally misunderstanding or genuinely aren't following? Genuine question because I understood (or at least think I do) him fine.
>>64832510Because you are an liar and it's funny to watch every board specific reference i make fly over you're head. Besides, i'm bored and you amuse me my friend. Sure you will say we aren't but i doubt you will ever have a conversation as emotionally intense as this one with anyone IRL even family or loved ones. So i guess in that regard we aren't friends, in a way this moment is even more intimate than that isn't it?
>>64827886that only really counts if you have an existing paper trail of not being a retard, which nobody except maybe tripfags can claim to have. if people just call you a retard when you act like a retard then all youve done is act like a retard. saying "i was merely pretending" in retrospect has always been cope.
>>64832543As an occasional retard my comrade here speaks wisdom, it is insights like this that keep us all here as a community.
>>64832531Confirmed schizo episode got it. Get help man. Seriously no hate.
>>64832574You know i'm pretty chill once you get to know me, no help is needed. No hate either, i actually go out of my way to talk to folks who hate on me here since it means they haven't really talked to me yet. A hater or troll is just a friend who hasn't realized it yet, after all if they care enough to argue with you that much then they obviously care otherwise they would just ignore you.Yay, we made friends! No i don't care if you say otherwise, we are buddies now. Nice meeting you bro or sis as the case may be.
>>64826900
>>64832541Is that his torn butt skin flopping?
>>64832605They seem less attractive like that. To get back to being Varangually /k/ related they are all combat effectives in a hunter/warrior society so the females having small breasts is more realistic. Besides, it is clear that like native cultures they don't share the same sexual triggers as humans despite the physical similarities. Varang is sexier from my viewpoint as she doesn't care about clothing much besides practicality, it seems the only reason they bother with loincloths or breast wraps is to prevent their junk from snagging on things although there is a huge omission there:They have a major portion of their central nervous system hanging off the back of their head, you would think hunter gathers and or warriors would have some sort of covering for that, if your cover your breasts and genitals in case you snag it on something wouldn't you protect a exposed part of your brain stem?
>>64832445>and moved onEveryone but you, it is still a huge part of your transparently thin identity.>>64832097>I am literally Carl Carwindows
>>64832597>Yay, we made friends! No i don't care if you say otherwiseAbsolute psychosis.
>>64832302>russia is going to mooobilize!They still have plenty of asiatic mystery neat mongoloids to go through before they start even considering bothering muscovites. Plenty of third worlders volunteering as well
>>64832113He has car windows, he doesn't need a life.
>>64833778He aslo has friends, no matter what the say. This is youur brain on 4chan.
>>64827507I think you underestimate how widely penguin habitats are distributed. Most of "Antarctica's penguins" live on islands surrounding it instead of the continent proper.And it isn't like there are no land predators or as if the maritime predators are any less fo a threat.
>>64833797Proofs?
>>64832597>Yay, we made friends! No i don't care if you say otherwise>>64833834Retard.
>>64833826I am and have been a firm believer in transplating invasive species from pole-to-pole. Polar bears to Antarctica and penguins to Greenland, Iceland and Northwest Territories. Probably the Northern Rockhopper, fucking hilarious adaptation. I think Trump would approve.
>>64833826This map looks like penguin invasion map
>>64835142LEAKED!
>>64832377No, I'm not South Korean. I'm someone who hunts and disposes of communist foreign agents. It's shocking the US authorities have not deported you. I attribute that to a deline in the FBI and ICE.
