Glad to hear it :) I quite like the political web unfolding with it

What did you think of it?

I fucking hope he is.

Its because they are afraid.

I'm kinda baffled tbh. Not that I've ever really sought out solarpunk, but anytime I'd see it referenced, it was as green, wavy versions of La Corbusier's towers, basically. How it could be construed as anti-urban is really beyond me.

Incidentally if you do use AI, don't like my posts, don't look at my content, don't interact with me cause you have nothing for me and your people want to take everything from me.

Cosmo was such a just some guy that he got a day job

I suppose the danger of that would be looking like a Forged in Fire or, heaven forbid, Deadliest Warrior. The "science" of those shows always felt a bit too suspect.

I think it might be to do with the composition of the shot? In the shot from sideline view the cannon is needed to signpost the officers speeder over the wheat. But then it's inconvenient from the front view where they are trying to frame the officer in back of the speeder. Either way it's odd.

Like I get that the main point of this is to denounce the military chauvinism we can see but that same thing has always kind of been there, the people in charge of it were just a little better at keeping a blanket over the nakedly, gleefully murderous true face of it all.

I'm not so sure that hands liberalism or capitalism a win all on their own, though, since flexibility with other organizational forms like a command economy is not a basic feature to either. It certainly doesn't make either system necessarily more efficient when put into those foreign forms.

There is some give and take to that. In the US the defense industry intermingles with Pentagon logisticians to offer jobs after their service. There are *some* robust testing regimes within this yes but the rot of corruption is still there, just not as concentrated as it might be under say Saddam.

I would be careful to note as well that WW2's explosion of productivity on this front in the US was also helped immensely along by the presence of a de facto command economy during the war years, and a heightened economic interventionism in the Depression before it.

I would agree about productive capacity (in part) but rationalized logistics seems a bit of a stretch. For the US at least the task of supplying any army in its historical wars has resulted in a hodge podge of non-interchangeable weapons systems and consequently inefficient, inadequate supply

Thanks!

Right but imagine if it was standard. Like ATCs playing that shit like Touhou.

Good god what a country.

I was wondering why I got a random follow
