  • So 5% seems like a lot... but we have definitely been under spending for awhile and could use some catch up, and 1.5% of that is earmarked for infrastructure, so maybe we'll at least get something useful to everyone and not just the military out of that extra 1.5%. Like a port doesn't necessarily have to be a military port, but the infrastructure could be used by the military if needed. Unless they really mean that has to be a military port, in which case, meh.

    Long term though that seems a bit bonkers.

    Edit: also were going to need to spend a lot of money on arctic stuff as global warming proceeds, at least in the mid-term. I bet a lot of it will go into that.

    Edit: just another example, a high-speed rail connecting Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City could be part of that. It would allow the military to deploy around the region much faster. Spend some money on some special high speed military train cars as well to help make the point.

  • "Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration"

    Except... you dropped those bombs on a facility designed to be protected from those very specific bombs.

    Next up:

    Police officer wearing bullet proof vest obliterated by 9mm subsonic round. "Everyone knows what happens when you get shot! Death!"

    Police Officer: uhhh hey I'm still alive here.

  • Does anyone here actually cook in their microwave? I don't mean reheat things or defrost and heat a pizza pop, but like actually cook something with the varying temperatures and all that shit they can do. Like is anyone making raw meatballs, saucing them and cooking them in the microwave?

    I remember my parents cooking onions with butter in the microwave to put on subs, but I've never done anything like that.

  • It's also easier to just hide something that's more potent.

    Drug A 1g is 10 doses.

    Drug B 1g is 400 doses.

    It's a lot easier to hide 1g than it would be to hide 40g, and who are we kidding, they're still gonna charge the street user the same price per hit regardless of type.

    Scale that up a bit size wise and it's 1 Playstation in a semi is stuffed instead of 40. Now it's less likely to be found amongst the thousand in the truck.
