Lol. Lmao even.

Yeah kind of seems like a Ruger mk4. Weight of silencer makes the slide too heavy to cycle with whatever ammo he’s using.

It was a long wait but I was able to snag one before bed last night. I’m excited for it to arrive!

Love that the “objective” reporting on it is a military (which famously doesn’t lie) press release.

This is so funny to me. A large part of the early development of computers was related to artillery range tables. We have come full circle except now the answers from the computer aren’t even correct. Just completely shitting on the legacy of the people who started this whole mess.

When someone mixes % and percentage points it’s a red flag in my mind:

For reference, when Sri Lanka issued USD bonds in 2022 they traded at a roughly 9% premium (very high risk). When Alibaba issued USD bonds in 2017 they traded at 1.08% above the rate (medium risk). When China issued bonds last week, however, they traded at only 0.007-0.029% above the rate (3Y/5Y)

If the base rate is 3%, 9% premium means a rate of 3.27% (3%*1.09). If he means that the rate is 9 percentage points higher, that would mean a rate of 12% (3%+9%) or 4x the base rate. Pretty big difference.
