Sometimes problems just solve themselves.

I agree Russia is out of resources, and can’t afford to “waste” any.
Still if Iran was still an important supplier as you claimed earlier, taking down a few Israeli missiles would go a long way to make Trump reconsider, and possibly to create more opposition in USA against the war.
I maintain that Putin actually wants this to help the struggling Russian economy. And if Putin didn’t want it, he could have stopped Trump with a phone call.

Absolutely Mossad is also without conscience, one does not exclude the other.

Iran asked Russia for help,using the Russian S400 systems they have stationed in Syria, to help defend against Israeli missiles.
The response from Russia, was to shut down the S400 systems, to prevent them from being a target.

So very clearly no aid is coming from Russia, and I think part of the reason is that this is what Putin want.

Sorry, that was a bad example,because Putin has criticized Trump before, it’s the other way around,Trump never criticizes Putin.
But remember Putin is KGB, and he constantly plays a game of deceit. Also to his own population.

So did he call Trump out? Because I haven’t heard that.
Also the Iranian designed drones are produced locally in Russia now. And Iran has so many problems themselves already, that their help is probably limited. Also Russia is running out of money fast to buy weapons from Iran.

Because Trump is a compromat, and he is scared of Putin, and Putin wanted higher oil prices.
Trump probably now hopes that a war will help his popularity. And at the same time he scores points with Israel, that is a major political influence in USA.

I’m talking about comes pre-installed

Apart from Steam not being a standard installed item, it is very feature full.
For 32 bit you also need to enable multi-arch.

But apart from gaming it is in no way bare and very very far from “super bare”. Ans Steam is pretty easy to install.

I did not say it was not great or popular.

You wrote it was mostly for servers. Which although it is an excellent server distro, it is most definitely developed at least as much for desktop use.

This is not the dunk you think it is…

I don’t think you really understand the implications.

Super bare. 🤣🤣🤣
Debian is probably Thee most supported distro with the most packages available.
Debian is also among the absolute best among Linux desktop options, and actually quite popular.
There’s a reason Debian is still the most forked distro.

No, you can’t simulate 1 particle using only 1 particle.

Yes, I shouldn’t have written that, because that’s kind of moronic. 🤡

To simulate a single base particle would require millions of atom equivalents.
In our universe, to simulate 1 atom, requires millions of atoms.
So to simulate our universe perfectly, would require a universe more than a million times more complex, and even then everything in that universe would be used only to simulate our universe.

we can’t possibly know what this external universe looks like.

I 100% agree, except what we can know, is that it must be infinitely more complex then this. It’s a necessity of math and logic.
But what it looks like or what the laws are, we cannot know. Only that it’s more complex.

Apart from that, I agree that no matter if this is a simulation or not, it remains our reality that we continuously try to better understand.

😋 👍 Clever.

If the universe we live in is a simulation, the universe that simulation exist in, must be infinitely millions of times more complex than the one we live in, to be able to have the necessary storage and computational power to simulate our universe.
Is that really a likely scenario?

Don’t answer that, because obviously the chances are fifty fifty, it either is or it isn’t. /s

OK groundhog day, that’s very specific to USA.
Don’t know how it became a soul thing though.

?

Not an expert, but logically the shorter chain makes it easier to handle and relatively more precise.
A longer chain however, allows for a greater swing, resulting in a much heavier impact.
That however can also be achieved using a heavier ball on the flail. But that makes it heavier to lift and carry.
Using multiple balls however seem counterproductive, as it will make the flail harder to use compared to the impact you can achieve.
I suppose the idea is to make it harder to defend against, but if the defender has a shield, I think multiple balls are utterly inefficient.

So as far as I can tell there is no single optimal balance. It depends on the persons strength and agility, and I suppose it also depends on what type of enemy it should be used against. For a heavily armored opponent, a longer chain will be better to smash hard against the heavy armor, and the armor will make the opponent relatively slower to avoid attacks.

In short I think the bottom left or the one above seems best all round, if you want something more precise, other weapons will probably be preferable.
The best would probably be the bottom right, but with one of the balls and chains from the top left.

An advantage with the chain is to avoid a hard hit straining your hand and wrist. And that part can also be achieved with a short chain. But the chain also has the function that it can pass a defense that would block a cane. If you block the chain, the chain will bend and allow the ball to continue a short distance further. With a shorter chain the flail is easier to defend against.

He would just have proved he was drinking water with something salty.

Your description of circumstances are lacking, but what you imply is impossible and ridiculous.
