>>64699124Kick ass thread op.Check the archives for Zapper anon or FARK for some REALLY cool tech they've been hiding since the late 90s

Somewhere, sometime, a man in a crystalline tower throws a switch and Armageddon is both triggered and avoided.Now time itself switches direction.The same sunshine we've basked in will warm the faces of our descendants generations to come.
>>64700218>>64700386>>64700698Schizos may not like it, but the US is 6 million years ahead in military tech. The US military & government holds the keys to the meaning of life & death, has both friendly & evil alien helpers (ET/FNORD), psychic "remote viewing" spie's, time travel tech, fleets of reverse-engineered antigravity alien tech "TR-3B Black Triangle" flying ship's powered by element 115, communication with ghosts the afterlife & the unborn, triple-barreled M551A666 PsychoSheridan tank's, 75th Rangers exoskeleton-hip-fired gyro-stabilised 120mm infantry mortar's with pinpoint accuracy during 25mph sprint, access to other "parallel" universe's, NSA/DARPA GGGQEP quantum ∞(±6^∀)Petahertz miconpossessors to eavesdrop on every single electronic & non-electronic communication in the world even sign language underneath 1km of EMF Kevlar, "Rods from God" (just 1 orbital tungsten telephone pole = two Czar Bombas), the 300,000-strong "Fighting Molemen" U.S. SUBTERRANEAN FORCE, FT LEE VA (the secret "7th branch" existing since 1899), quantum IFVs, "phase-shifting" Armored Recovery Vehicles, new "Stealth" tech that makes jet's invisible to Radar. Shoulder-fired ASAT missiles. Stealth field kitchens. This is publicized in Stargate SG1, scientific research publication Popular Science, only a fraction of the more spooky & shadowy stuff not listed above is merely hinted at in Marvel Cinematic Universe™, history documentary Red Alert 2, French time travel documentary Life is Strange (David Madsen was a rogue DIA test subject), but the pardoned parcel is the US of A is at least 6 million years ahead in military tech even without the help of alien's. It is 6 million years ahead though the exact number fluctuates due to the activities of the US Military Time Travel Program underneath Barksdale AFB, L.A., this 6 million years ahead is a universally agreed-upon average by the world & intergalactic/ET scientific communities.
>>64700386they were talking about shit that's considered cutting edge today back in 2003, including using plasma as control surfaces and shit like that. At the very least they were two very highly educated engineers in the field making shit up for fun, because all the technobabble checks out under close inspectionif they WEREN'T making it up... the war with china is going to be very funny and very short

What's the best cap and ball revolver? Are they suitable for home defence?
Can a black powder pistol be kept loaded and ready to fire for an extended periods, like modern cartridge one?
>>64698462Yes, as long as both ends of the cylinder are properly sealed, with oversized balls/bullets at the front and properly sized caps on the nipples. Black powder itself isn't corrosive, it can stay iní a steel/brass container for hundreds of years and nothing will happen to it as long as it doesn't picks up moisture from the air and even then it's just turns into a sludge that wouldn't ignite. On the other hand, black powder residue is a massive bitch, it can pick up the smallest amount of water from the air and form a nasty acid that eats away your gun.
>>64698462>Can a black powder pistol be kept loaded and ready to fire for an extended periods, like modern cartridge one?Yes and no. On the one hand, if it's properly sealed off it can last basically indefinitely but on the other hand that's much more difficult to achieve because there has to be some sort of passage from the chamber or cylinder to the cap or the pan. Sooner or later moisture will infiltrate through the touch hole or sneak around the cap and the powder will start to degrade but there are no guarantees. Maybe the powder will just cake up a little bit while remaining volatile enough to function and extend the life of the charge; maybe atmospheric moisture will seep in and render the charge functionally inert in only a few years - who knows?Either way a loaded and capped BP pistol should remain ready to rock for at least several decades if stored in a cool and dry place.

pearls before swine thread
Greetings pol,Ever wonder what Trump actually meant when he said we had Jet aircraft that could literally disappear? Not just from radar, but from optical light too. The media called him crazy, here's what he meant.Now let's consider this, do you know what a Luneburg lens is? It can be used in devices that under certain conditions act as phase conjugate time reversal mirrors. Especially if a Bose Einstein Condensate is used as a buffer. Anyway, a configuration such as this can probably me used as a type of "Active Cloak" or "Broadband Cloak" for an aircraft (as Luneburg Lens's are already installed upon most US stealth aircraft for supposedly different purposes). Probably functioning in a way similar to how acoustic time reversal mirrors cancel unwanted noise.A properly made luneburg lens antenna would be of a layered metamaterial, with a gradient refractive index from the outside surface, to the innermost point. By it's nature, it's already designed to reflect EM energy back along the path that was taken to reach the antenna/lens...combined with a BEC acting as a buffer material and with a negative refractive index, we can create what is a perfect time-reversal lens.Officially, these types of devices are only put onto stealth planes to make them more observable to radar during training exercises. However they can also make their radar profile much larger than the plane itself (obfuscating radar)...but what if it was used to either bend light around the craft? Or create destructive interference around the craft in order to eliminate any radar return?
>>64700496could this be related?https://opg.optica.org/prj/fulltext.cfm?uri=prj-7-10-1112
>>64699644>phase conjugate time reversal mirrors. Especially if a Bose Einstein Condensate is used as a buffer.Startrek isn't real OP.

Let me guess, you think your airforce needs more expensive higher performance aircraft.You could get 5 of these fucks and arm them for the price of an empty KR-67.
>>64699920it's probably the best lite-sim out there, just enough 'realistic' mechanics to keep it fun but not like a DCS level of hoops to jump throughalso it has a dual pusher turboprop A-10>>64700489reminder this boy has some of the best optics for aircraft and basically no heat signature so you can shoot like 2 flares and every IR missile will fail to hit you

>drone swarms the astra militarumEh, nothing personal kid.
>>64701588even when you take into account the blueberries plot armor, ultramar still existing makes sense given the fact said blueberries are one of the few chapters that actually developed their world and by extension its defensive abilities instead of keeping it a 24/7 hellhole just so they can get a few extra sociopaths as recruits
>>64701639>one of the few chapters that actually developed their worldThere's a huge asterisk here in that it's only by the standards of the Imperium. They still only have a life expectancy of 35, it's just that the rest of the Imperium is even worse. And both of those are pathetic even in comparison to Russia which even with its shitty peasant lifestyle still manages to eke out a life expectancy of twice that of Ultramar.
>>64701616>The Tyranid invasion pretty much saved the asses of everyonebut that's exactly my problem with the tau in how they're portrayed, and it's more a problem of how 40k writers don't understand scale. every time the tau are in over their head fighting a foe that should by every right win, they either leave or become pants on head retarded and fumble hard. why did the deathguard leave instead of fucking them up? how does changing what gun you use suddenly beat tyranid adaptation (tyranids making poisons that can kill deathguard is equally retarded)? why do they now have their own chaos god of the greater good that, instead of becoming twisted like all warp entities, is ostensibly benign despite having nowhere near the population of even the craftworld eldar? ultramar controls more worlds than all of the tau empire, why haven't they decided to either exterminate them or at least open negotiations to prevent either from getting fucked by tyranids or deathguard again? there's just to many head scratchers for my liking and that's coming from an eldar player.>the sort of cope monke is known forwe all know monkey wouldn't sign shit unless it was massively in his favor and preferably from a golden ox cart. but then he would probably invade 5 years later after getting high off his own supply again, just like what the imperium eventually did.
>>64701667You misunderstand, the Tyranid Invasion didn't save the Tau, they saved the Imperium's invading force. The Tau were receiving reinforcements and were pushing the Imperium back, the Tyranid's crusade was going to fail no matter what. However, if they did retreat most of them would get executed for failing their duties, the Tyranid Invasion saved the crusading force by allowing them an excuse to retreat in the face of inevitable defeat.>why did the deathguard leave instead of fucking them up?The Deathguard was never going to survive the other side of the Startide Nexus, it was the most fortified area in all the Tau Empire and had basically the entire concentration of the Tau's military there ready to fight. That they got shredded by the Tau'va before ever getting there ultimately didn't alter their end outcome.>how does changing what gun you use suddenly beat tyranid adaptationBecause tyranids can adapt to anything, but they can't adapt to everything at the same time. Besides even Space Marines use special ammo against Tyranids, the Tau aren't unique in this.>ultramar controls more worlds than all of the tau empire, why haven't they decided to either exterminate themBecause Utramar is a destitute shithole by the standards of the Tau. It's the Moscow to the Imperium's Russia, a slightly shinier turd on the dung pile.
>>64701667The industrial output of an Imperial world is pitiful relative to what it ought to be, because of the hideous inefficiency of the Imperium

>>64698119>Ah yes. Those billions that regular Quebec citizens sees so much of. That, once accounted for by capita, makes for less than a week's paycheck per year. As a white adult man who has never been unemployed, never needed medical or social services support and never not been taxed more than you have, I sure as fuck couldn't survive without those.So we're all in agreement that equalization payments can be discontinued then?Surely it wouldn't make sense to continue garnishing the wages of hard working Canadians for a pointless redistribution scheme that isn't actually needed.
>>64669324Forgive the slop but IS that possible? can you purpose build a submarine to be an icebreaker? That would not only be SO Canadien of them but also you could disarm it and fill it with gay scientists because Canada is pansy-socialist.Ice. Breaking. Submersible.Something in my pants says YES.
>>64699812That's classified :^)Maybe it's hardened so it can surface through Ice and take a breather, fuck knows.>>64700570Yes, when you're already building it to withstand water pressure then hardening it against ice is not that much of a stretch.The real question is, what's the fucking point? If you want to break ice, buy an icebreaker, it's orders of magnitude cheaper and comes with the benefit of creating a gap that is actually large enough for other ships.
