Funny thing is that we’ve had so much new cool and actually good tech over the last few years, and we’re all happily using it.

It’s not that we don’t understand NFTs/AI/whatever. It’s that it just sucks.

I can respect a movie for feeling if not accuracy. The tank charge against the emplaced AT guns may not be 100%, but it conveys the right amount of horror.

I just don't get why they didn't put the plot during the Ardennes offensive, would have made much more sense.

Also, their aim isn't to knock out the tank, their aim is to go do whatever hairbrained thing they were supposed to according to the plot.

They're infantry. They're not bound to roads. Just walk around the static tank.

I think it's more how the Tiger is in an excellent ambush position, likely with further ones behind it, yet for some unfathomable reason decides to charge.

So I think your take is more likely – Tiger commander was just some dork.

"No predatory intent"

...yeah...like that's not how that works?

Likewise, though it's dampened from watching everyone go around the same shit carousel with LLMs.

Ugh. Mental the mental gymnastics and like...the original Hussars were Hungarian, not Croatian? And have absolutely nothing to do with the Prussian Hussars?

And like...doesn't matter who used it before the nazis. It was used by the nazis.

Oh, topical!

There are precisely zero excuses, and that can’t be said enough times.

Living in Scandinavia (and I do read the Icelandic sagas for my kids, because they’re fun), most of what the ”heritage” people believe is made up way later, and half of what they espouse to know about late Iron Age Scandinavia is just wrong anyway. Don’t even get me started Vikings the show…

You’re a good egg, racoon lady!

I mean, heritage that some dude made up in the 19th century while larping.

Unless we’re talking heritage from the actual SS, now that’s a different issue altogether.

This is why Necropolis need to make a resurgance. Vertical plots, effective use of space, all the room for neo-gothic adornement one could ask for and a given spot for epic rave parties.

Awesome paint job btw!

”Did you get that bolter off of Barbie, brother?”

”Shut your stupid heretic mouth.”

Same people falling for it.

I was just reminded that people were using the same argument for why you should invest all your money into shitcoins.
