It, along with anything high capacity and rapid firing, are perfectly designed for filling long narrow corridors with hot lead in a short amount of time.

Shotguns were just easier to carry. Still are, mostly.

To be fair, history is filled with people calling shotguns unfair for one thing or another. Like the punt guns that would take out entire flocks of waterfowl at a time...

They're all the same Q.

Which brings about the question: Is Alexander half-Q, or did Q just steal a klingon baby...

You know, I've also heard people saying this. Many people are saying this.

Who specifically? Oh, I can't recall.

But lots of people are saying this.

My old school didn't understand why none of us wanted to use the shiny new dark green playground equipment on the large flat freshly sealed blacktop.

Never mind the fact that it's too hot on the pavement, the tar sealant smells horrible, and the color choice of the equipment guarantees 2nd degree burns...

We wanted the grass and wooden equipment back. But the school though wood was too much maintenance, And grass grows too much.

I'm not gonna go check to see if kids are even using it anymore, but satellite imagery shows the playground is still just as gross.

And here I thought I agreed with the Haitians, and thought that people like John Brown did nothing wrong...

Turns out I'm Big Mad?

I don’t know how all the people that aren’t getting promotions are doing it.

Debt.

In other words, "they're not."

No atmosphere means very little thermal radiation is pulled from radiators.

I imagine the best bet would be to drill into the surface of the moon and sink your radiators into the ground, fill the gaps with a material that transfers heat well.

Easiest version of that would probably be to lay the radiators on or just below the surface and bury them in a regolith concrete mixture of some sort. Probably not as efficient as drilling straight in, but way less complicated I imagine.

Me, having very little knowledge about keeping vegetation alive: "oooh, that's a nice plant."

I think the city busses ran from 6am-8pm? Maybe 9? So not 24 hours but still a good stretch longer than some of the surrounding cities. I know the bus stop near one of my friends only has a bus every 2 hours, and there are days it just doesn't show up.

It's crazy that a large city would have worse transportation than a city of 40-50,000.

I decided riding a bicycle was a better idea for my area, so I didn't use the busses long.

Probably would have gotten way less injuries though...

I actually sent a rescue mission to save one of my kerbals and the science they had on board, and ended up needing to launch a mission to save the rescue mission....

Had to break it up into three launches, two to build the larger ship in orbit and one to fuel it up.

I learned a lot about orbital mechanics that day...

Total time in space was probably about 20 years...

And I may have forgotten about a kerbals in one or two plays....

I saw an arcade version at a flea market in Ohio a few weeks ago.

I was confused as fuck, but figured "well the creator probably doesn't give enough of a shit to sue anyone over it"

I guess I'm kinda right.
