  • Celsius is just as good at describing temperatures humans experience. Every 5o is ‘category’:

    < -10o Cripes it’s cold!

    -10 to -5o Cold

    -5 to 0o Snow/ice will melt

    0o ‘true’ freezing/melting temperature

    0 to 5o Cool

    5 to 10o Brisk, jacket optional

    10 to 15o Cool, Comfortable to work

    15 to 20o Cold house

    20 to 25o Typical house temps

    25 to 30o Shorts recommended

    30 to 35o Hot

    35 to 40o Severely hot

    '> 40o Crazy hot.

    It’s simply just getting used to the values which you have to do with F too anyways, and IMO the C scale just makes far more sense. With F none of the values are intuitive and require you to learn them all.




  • You also need a high temperature ignition source. Trivial for the military ofc. One of the bonuses in that it is extremely stable/safe unless successfully ignited which is not easy to do. An aluminum can filled with rust flakes lit by a burning magnesium strip will penetrate an engine block. Amazing stuff. Chemistry teacher used it as a demo in class one day. The minuscule amount he used burnt through the metal tray and molten balls of iron splashed outwards across the entire linoleum floor leaving burn damage everywhere. Lucky nobody was hurt, the Janitors were not happy I’m sure. 😂






  • There is a grey area. There has to be considering you cannot be sure of the true physical condition of the opponent. Even the mortally wounded they can be a threat for hours. How many times have we seen opfor get directly hit by something, and go sprinting for 500 meters before finally collapsing? That entire time they are legit targets as they are still dangerous, immediately so or no. I have not seen any ‘desecrating cadaver’ videos, unless you are including ‘doubletapping to be sure’ videos which is not the same thing. I too would like a return to more videos of things like opfor surrendering peacefully to drones etc., but if we all got what we really wanted here the war would be over and Ukraine would be rebuilding Crimea already.
