This always gets me right in the feels.  Happy St Patrick's Day everyone!

 

 

The feeling of laughter, anyway!

We'll obviously never know now, but it looks like a mass shooting in Ithica, New York has been prevented.

Very, very, tangentially related, T.I.L. Mike Shinoda is still using his Youtube channel

More like master race to the bottom. 

 

 

The bottom in this case being the underside of a crate crushed next to a trailer in Whothehellcares, Indiana.

And something that I have been thinking for some time;

 

[Jarms48]

To all that AC 1 and AC 4 Experimental talk. The engine powers listed are semi-historical, whilst 330hp was the net power to the transfer case, the gross hp was actually 375hp. As the cloverleaf arrangement was 3 x 125hp engines. There is also no AC 3 or AC 4 in this game. The AC 4 Experimental is actually the AC E1 (17-Pdr). The AC E1 was one of the initial pilot vehicles for the AC 1 series, later used as a testing platform.

I guess that explains the "Experimental"  in the tank name.   Thanks.

 

(I still think it would be better as a tier 6 if they made it a non-experimental AC 4 with 397 hp, mind.)

 

Also... Lovely day here, warm for what we've been getting lately... And I'm too tired to enjoy it

Is it bad when you read and post in a thread so much that you start dreaming about it?

[FrozenKemp]

You mean this thread? You don't post here enough to be worried.  I read some higher traffic sites...

Regarding the AC series vehicles, I know that less than 100 were produced, and they weren't used operationally. Had a version of the tank been accepted for operational service for whatever reason, are there any rough ideas as to what scale of production Australian industry could have reasonably supported?

In news that shocks absolutely no one, Russian vote watchers are reporting ballot stuffing in multiple places around the country.

 

Also filed under "news that shocks absolutely no one", Putin has won re-election again.  Probably with a 105% mandate, too.

 

Edit:  Nope.  Only got a 73% mandate.  Still not as popular as the dear leader.  Heck.  73% is a downright minuscule lead for a dictator that's banned the opposition party from running.  He must not be very popular in Russia.

It's 55 and sunny here, so pretty much shirtsleeves weather for me.

Yeah, it's a beautiful day out in Northeastern lower Michigan too.  Definitely t-shirt weather, despite the snow on the ground.

Hey this is a “democratic” vote. Anything over 80% would be suspicious.

Pfft.  Russia is fooling no one with their "democratic" "votes".  It's about as believable as Trump's hair piece.

There were 66 machines in total. 65 AC I and 1 AC III tanks produced. I've seen documents with production figures and the number of vehicles desired. I'll need to find it again.
