What happened to the Norwegian coastline in the modern image?

[sullen merlin]

All life could adapt to it but that depends on how fast its evolving. By the pace it does now a lot of organisms will die like corals and polar creatures

Second Animal species of the day (315) :
Austruca perplexa

Austruca perplexa is a species of fiddler crab. It is found from the Ryukyu Islands, Japan to India, throughout the Malay Archipelago, along eastern Australian coasts from Queensland to New South Wales, and in various Pacific islands, including Fiji, Tonga and Vanuatu.

Austruca perplexa was formerly in the genus Uca, but in 2016 it was placed in the genus Austruca, a former subgenus of Uca

As in other fiddler crabs, the male has a greatly enlarged claw, which is used for signalling.

higher the claw is waved by the male, the greater his chance of attracting a female; the size of the claw is therefore subject to sexual selection

Furthermore, larger male fiddler crabs wave their claws at a faster rate than smaller fiddler crabs to attract larger females. Larger females are more desirable because they produce more eggs than smaller females

Austruca perplexa is usually found on sandy substrates near river mouths or on sheltered beaches in the mid-intertidal zone, usually near mangroves

@alpine harness people can get annoyed easily but I don’t think that always makes them bad people either. secretly I get annoyed pretty easily (not by you) but like gif spam and stuff, yet I don’t think those people are not worth my time nor do I consider myself a person worth someone else’s (if all that makes sense?)

that reads confusing to even me but

TLDR: I don’t think you should have to filter people, be who you are and all but don’t let other people’s annoyance make you see them as any less either

[alpine harness]

I don't see people as /less/; I see a personality conflict, and it'd be in both our best interests if those conflicts didn't happen, owo.

First Animal species of the day (316) :
Atlantic mackerel

The Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus), also known as Boston mackerel, Norwegian mackerel, Scottish mackerel or just mackerel, is a species of mackerel found in the temperate waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea, and the northern Atlantic Ocean, where it is extremely common and occurs in huge shoals in the epipelagic zone down to about 200 m (660 ft). It spends the warmer months close to shore and near the ocean surface

The Atlantic mackerel's body is elongate, steel-blue marked with wavy black lines dorsally and silvery-white ventrally, its snout long and pointed. It possesses two spiny dorsal fins, which are spaced far apart, two pectoral fins, and small caudal and anal fins, also spaced far apart. 4-6 dorsal finlets and 5 anal finlets are typical among members of this species

Typical size for a mature fish is 30 cm (0.98 ft), but individuals have been caught as large as 60 cm (2.0 ft). The maximum published weight is 3.4 kg (7.5 lb).

A highly commercial species, the Atlantic mackerel is sought after for its meat, which is strong in flavor and high in oil content and omega-3 fatty acids among other nutrients. Nearly 1 million tonnes of Atlantic mackerel are caught each year globally

The Atlantic mackerel is of commercial importance to many Atlantic fisheries, which catch it with purse seines, trawls, gill and trammel nets, and trolling lines. Global annual catch is typically in the range of 1 million tonnes, though a 50% spike in 2014 put this number at nearly 1.5 million tonnes. The United Kingdom and Norway bring in the most Atlantic mackerel, with annual catches coming in at over 166,000 tonnes and 160,000 tonnes respectively

Despite its commercial status, the Atlantic mackerel was assessed to be of Least Concern by the IUCN in 2011. Its abundance and extensive range combined with a cyclical increase/decrease in catch mean that it is not currently in danger of going extinct.

Second Animal species of the day (317) :
Wreathed hornbill

The wreathed hornbill (Rhyticeros undulatus) is an Old World tropical bird of the hornbill family Bucerotidae, also called bar-pouched wreathed hornbill due to its distinctive blue-black band on its lower throat sac. It is named after its characteristic long, curved bill that develops ridges, or wreaths, on the casque of the upper mandible in adults. Males are black with a rufous crown, a white upper breast and face, and a yellow featherless throat. Females are uniformly black with a blue throat and are slightly smaller than males.
Dont ask about what happened to the borders

The wreathed hornbill ranges across the foothills and evergreen forests of Northeast India and Bhutan to Bangladesh, Southeast Asia and the Greater Sunda Islands. It is a frugivore and feeds mainly on large fruits, which it swallows whole leaving the seeds intact. This feeding behaviour plays an important ecological role for the long-distance seed dispersal in forest ecosystems.

The wreathed hornbill is threatened by hunting, habitat fragmentation and deforestation. It has been listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List since 2018

Sexual dimorphism in the colouration of plumage and inflatable gular skin is less pronounced in young wreathed hornbills, but becomes more apparent as both sexes mature.

The wreathed hornbill inhabits tropical evergreen forests in the region from southern Bhutan, Northeast India, Bangladesh and through mainland Southeast Asia to Indonesia, where it is restricted to Sumatra, Java, Borneo and a few smaller islands. It has been recorded up to an elevation of 2,560 m (8,400 ft)

It lives in larger flocks than other hornbill species and remains in groups during both breeding and non-breeding seasons

The wreathed hornbill mainly feeds on large fruit with figs making up the majority of its diet

The wreathed hornbill is a monogamous breeder that demonstrates biparental care. It nests in the cavities of large trees located in coastal forests, illegally logged areas, or among foothills up to an elevation of 2,560 m (8,400 ft)

I dont have school

[rustic badger]

the code looked fine, just put '\n' at the end of your print statement

[elfin sandal]

That is the example of what the output will look like if we give a random input like “house” which then would have to print out to be

h
ho
hou
hous
house

[rustic badger]

Alright, and what does your output look like?

You should just need to add a newline at the end of the outer loop for it to look like that

or remove the newline from the inner loop's print statement if you're using python or something

[full patrol]

Does it want you to have the program increment?

You want to set up a loop that takes the input and increments through it, printing out each progressive one

I think I might have done one of those in my C++ class I can check and give a example

[full patrol]

There is merit behind the comparisons though. Many recent styles of animation are all quite similar when you bring them down to their basic shapes. Especially compared to the variety of styles in the 90's-2000's childrens/teen cartoons

[shell rapids]

True, however, my issue also stems from the fact that people whine about calarts, rarely (that I've seen) to after the corporations and executive overreach that screws animators over

And instead just blame the animators

[full patrol]

Ya no it's not the animators fault, it's the corporations that ultimately decide the design of the characters

[shell rapids]

I wouldn't even say they decide the designs

They just won't pay the animators
Or give them time to cook

Also fun fact, the term "calarts style" was coined by the guy who mad ren and stimpy

Yes. What is Gen 1?

[grizzled crescent]

So The Isle is under the supervision of a genetics company called “Æ” which (by means unknown so far) they made dinosaurs and humans. Their first batch (Gen 1) aren’t exactly human anymore and are 9 foot tall humanoids with claws and the ability to echolocate (some don’t have eyes). In game they’ve been said to have a primitive building and crafting system, be able to climb surfaces and use giant versions of primitive human weapons like spears and such.

I mean u can sneak in a few more if u include subspecies lmao

[modest isle]

Subspecies ⛔️🔴❌💢‼️
Species ✅

id like to see more birds

[neat basalt]

i feel like we have a big bird deficincy in animal of the day

[modest isle]

Subspecies is stupid term the should be called populations within the same species

[sullen merlin]

Ive never seen a bivalve or echinoderm in years

[modest isle]

Yeah they all belong to 1 species : white rhino

[sullen merlin]

Thats pretty puch what subspecies is tho just another word. Although subspiecies have more genetic differences i think compared to different localities of lets say retics

So basing it on location isnt the way to go

[neat basalt]

a snake has different localities that can change it quite a bit, i think its a boa species but i cant remember which one. i think red tails?

[sullen merlin]

I think ur referring to BCI and BCC which are different subspecies. But for example in reticulated pythons there are some localities on island that becoms really small calles 'super dwarf retics' thats a locality and not a subspecies

[modest isle]

Lets take leopard for example 9 subspecies all belong inside 1 species aka Leopard
I already covered leopards before ✅

Yellow banded poison dart frog 👍🏼
This the one for today also the name is ridiculously long

[sullen merlin]

Ye i just say leucomellas

i just the species name for dart frogs cuz its way shorter than the common name, if they even have that

[modest isle]

So the scientific name instead of the Common name

[sullen merlin]

Not the whole things, only the species name not genus. If u say the genus name too then its the same length as the common name most of the time

This one is an exception tho

[modest isle]

Yellow-banded poison dart frog❌

Dendrobates leucomelas ✅

[sullen merlin]

Ye

Every common name has poison dart frog which on its own makes ot way too long

[modest isle]

Fr

[sullen merlin]

Oophaga pumillio
Strawberry poison dart frog 💀
So i just say 'pumilio's'

I think ppl still enjoyed life when they came up with these long ah names for things

[modest isle]

Nah we need to say both genus name and species name
Oophaga pumillio ✅
pumilio❌

Since some species can share the later name :
Balaeniceps rex (Shoebill)
Tyrannosaurus rex

Both species are rex

[sullen merlin]

Ye but that isnt common for dart frogs, i never just say the species name to adress any animals. I always use the common name for everything except for dart frogs. IN the dart frog hobby thats just the way cuz its the shortest way to talk about them, also a lot of them dont even have common names yet so thats why

[modest isle]

First Animal species of the day (318) :
Dendrobates leucomelas

The yellow-banded poison dart frog (Dendrobates leucomelas), also known as yellow-headed poison dart frog or bumblebee poison frog, is a poison dart frog from the genus Dendrobates of the family Dendrobatidae.

Dendrobates leucomelas is a common poison dart frog found in the northern part of continent of South America, most notably in Venezuela. It is also found in parts of Guyana, Brazil, and the extreme easternmost part of Colombia

The D. leucomelas' natural habitat is tropical, and not subject to great seasonal temperature variations. Typically, temperature variances are related to elevation and time of day, and range from 26 to 30 °C (79 to 86 °F) or above. In captivity, care must be taken not to overheat the frogs, as they can be sensitive to higher temperatures.

Although preferring high humidity levels, this species can handle lower humidity levels much better than other species in the genus. Specimens can also be found in the seasonally drier forest islands in its natural range, and at elevations ranging from sea level to 800 metres (2,600 ft)

Dendrobates leucomelas is one of the largest species in the genus Dendrobates, with a snout-to-vent length between 3.1 and 5 cm (1.2 and 2.0 in). Average adult size, however, rarely exceeds 4 cm (1.6 in)

Dendrobates leucomelas frogs are diurnal by nature, and are known to be fiercely territorial. They live in small groups in the Uniquely, it is also the only poison dart frog to estivate during dry spells

Like all Dendrobatidae, D. leucomelas frogs secrete toxins from their skin, which they gain from eating certain unspecified arthropod prey. It is uncertain precisely which arthropods lend their toxicity to which genus of Dendrobatidae, but one such arthropod is thought to have been identified as a possible source of the toxin for Dendrobatidae Phyllobates terribilis (aka the golden poison frog), and it is a local variant of the Melyrid beetle

[grizzled crescent]

Often times that the answer with this game lol, “Not yet but one day yes.” is one of the things that keeps people hopeful.

[final fulcrum]

Lets keep hope. How many are they in the team?

[distant nymph]

[grizzled crescent]

They’re adding new devs often so I’m actually not sure how many. But I think at this point it’s over 18 people?

[distant nymph]

Should be over 30 now, or not ? o:
Pretty sure we were at like 25 or so before all the animators were added

I might be wrong though

Second Animal species of the day (319) :
Leopard shark

The leopard shark (Triakis semifasciata) is a species of houndshark, in the family Triakidae. It is found along the Pacific coast of North America, from the U.S. state of Oregon to Mazatlán in Mexico. Typically measuring 1.2–1.5 m (3.9–4.9 ft) long, this slender-bodied shark is immediately identifiable by the striking pattern of black saddle-like markings and large spots over its back, from which it derives its common name. Large schools of leopard sharks are a common sight in bays and estuaries, swimming over sandy or muddy flats or rock-strewn areas near kelp beds and reefs. They are most common near the coast, in water less than 4 m (13 ft) deep.

Active-swimming predators, groups of leopard sharks often follow the tide onto intertidal mudflats to forage for food, mainly clams, spoon worms, crabs, shrimp, bony fish, and fish eggs. Most leopard sharks tend to remain within a particular area rather than undertaking long movements elsewhere

Harmless to humans, the leopard shark is caught by commercial and recreational fisheries for food and the aquarium trade. This species is mostly fished in the waters off California

The coloration is unique, consisting of prominent black "saddles" and large black spots running along the back, on a silvery to bronzy gray background. Adult sharks often have more spots and saddles with lighter centers compared to juveniles. The underside is whitish and plain.[5] The average length of a leopard shark is 1.2–1.5 m (3.9–4.9 ft).

[young gale]

Hmm I see

[modest isle]

Females give birth to 1–37 young annually from March and July (most in April or May), with the number of pups increasing with female size

Third Animal species of the day (320) :
Red wolf

The red wolf (Canis rufus) is a canine native to the southeastern United States. Its size is intermediate between the coyote (Canis latrans) and gray wolf (Canis lupus).

The red wolf's appearance is typical of the genus Canis, and is generally intermediate in size between the coyote and gray wolf, though some specimens may overlap in size with small gray wolves. A study of Canis morphometrics conducted in eastern North Carolina reported that red wolves are morphometrically distinct from coyotes and hybrids.[21] Adults measure 136–165 cm (53.5–65 in) in length, comprising a tail of about 37 cm (14.6 in)

The red wolf is more sociable than the coyote, but less so than the gray wolf. It mates in January–February, with an average of 6-7 pups being born in March, April, and May.

The originally recognized red wolf range extended throughout the southeastern United States from the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, north to the Ohio River Valley and central Pennsylvania, and west to Central Texas and southeastern Missouri.[31] Research into paleontological, archaeological and historical specimens of red wolves by Ronald Nowak expanded their known range to include land south of the Saint Lawrence River in Canada, along the eastern seaboard, and west to Missouri and mid-Illinois, terminating in the southern latitudes of Central Texas

Since 1987, red wolves have been released into northeastern North Carolina, where they roam 1.7 million acres.[35] These lands span five counties (Dare, Hyde, Tyrrell, Washington, and Beaufort) and include three national wildlife refuges, a U.S. Air Force bombing range, and private land.[35] The red wolf recovery program is unique for a large carnivore reintroduction in that more than half of the land used for reintroduction lies on private property. Approximately 680,000 acres (2,800 km2) are federal and state lands, and 1,002,000 acres (4,050 km2) are private lands.

Since before European colonization of the Americas, the red wolf has featured prominently in Cherokee spiritual beliefs, where it is known as wa'ya (ᏩᏯ), and is said to be the companion of Kana'ti - the hunter and father of the Aniwaya or Wolf Clan

Not be confused with
Gray wolf ❌

First Animal species of the day (321) :
Desert locust

The desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria is a species of locust, a periodically swarming, short-horned grasshopper in the family Acrididae. They are found primarily in the deserts and dry areas of
northern and eastern Africa,
Arabia,
and southwest Asia.
During population surge years, they may extend north into parts of Southern Europe, south into Eastern Africa, and east in northern India. The desert locust shows periodic changes in its body form and can change in response to environmental conditions, over several generations, from a solitary, shorter-winged, highly fecund, non-migratory form to a gregarious, long-winged, and migratory phase in which they may travel long distances into new areas. In some years, they may thus form locust plagues, invading new areas, where they may consume all vegetation including crops, and at other times, they may live unnoticed in small numbers.

During plague years, desert locusts can cause widespread damage to crops, as they are highly mobile and feed on large quantities of any kind of green vegetation, including crops

Locusts differ from other grasshoppers in their ability to change from a solitary living form into gregarious, highly mobile, adult swarms and hopper bands, as their numbers and densities increase.

The desert locust is potentially the most dangerous of the locust pests because of the ability of swarms to fly rapidly across great distances. The major desert locust upsurge in 2004–05 caused significant crop losses in West Africa and diminished food security in the region. The 2019–2021 upsurge caused similar losses in northeast Africa, the Near East, and southwest Asia

The lifecycle of the desert locust consists of three stages, the egg, the nymph known as a hopper, and the winged adult. Copulation takes place when a mature male hops onto the back of a mature female and grips her body with his legs. Sperm is transferred from the tip of his abdomen to the tip of hers, where it is stored. The process takes several hours and one insemination is sufficient for a number of batches of eggs

Biopesticides include fungi, bacteria, neem extract, and pheromones. The effectiveness of many biopesticides equals that of conventional chemical pesticides, but two distinct differences exist. Biopesticides in general take longer to kill insects, plant diseases, or weeds, usually between 2 and 10 days.

Oh nice

Haven't heard this one yet, didn't play the event

Well I played like 3 matches

[winged jacinth]

Also music is off as I said

[dense field]

I've heard it while holding onto an objective with my T55
It was glorious

https://youtu.be/XqXouk97qBw?si=RO2uVJXGvvjI5TsF

This one also got vocals
Pretty neat

[winged jacinth]

Yeah this one I heard since it's in a trailer

Also

Kinda different but this is my favourite war thunder song, because of the nostalgia

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elU1vJzhFX8

Also this one

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jlb6TTGpaXQ

[dense field]

This one always send me back to my 2015 hangar looking at my mig15

[winged jacinth]

Nostalgia is a powerful emotion

But yeah they have some real bangers

[dense field]

That's Interdiction!
Also pretty cool

Those are from airforce volume 2

[winged jacinth]

Also I know this is goofy but it's still so good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6jnixZPn3U

[dense field]

Which are all bangers

[dense field]

MAN

I love this one

Jimmie Asche is actually a legend

[winged jacinth]

They really go all out during april fools all the time

[dense field]

You know Advance Australia?

[winged jacinth]

I wish they had this much creativity when updating the main game

[dense field]

Xd

[winged jacinth]

Instead of just adding new vehicles and mechanics

Add some new modes or something

[winged jacinth]

Yeah also a classic

[dense field]

https://youtu.be/46oYJSQlko8?si=wTeZ-b-ofcOGgZsB

[winged jacinth]

That one I've heard many times, when does it play again?

[dense field]

At the end of Frontal Attack I linked, there's a remake of it

It's amazing

Starts at 4:10

[winged jacinth]

Oh yeah I've heard it before, the cover is a really nice touch

[dense field]

Air RB

[winged jacinth]

Huh, weird

Might have just heard it on youtube or back when I was younger

[dense field]

Possible

[winged jacinth]

Idk if you've heard this one but I like it quite a bit as well

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYvm-77C7XY

Even though I haven't played wot in 3 years

[dense field]

Ummm

Major

Witcher vibes

[winged jacinth]

Hope the music producers of both games get paid well

[winged jacinth]

I mean witcher is a polish game and the wot song is for a polish map

Might be why

[dense field]

Lmao yeah

[winged jacinth]

This is also a game song I'm fond of, more of a choir though

idk if you like that

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLdAURdn4o4

Good game as well

(In my opinion)

[dense field]

Oh I know this one

That violin

[winged jacinth]

Yeah the violinist goes all out

1:38 and 1:51

Especially

[dense field]

I am pretty sure I've heard this one in a War Thunder video
Pretty familiar

Also can't wait for the next trailer

[winged jacinth]

Should be soon

[dense field]

The last one was a banger with Troy Baker and all

[winged jacinth]

We've started getting devblogs after all

[dense field]

Good thing to rewatch

But yeah 2:00 in this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRbeW9vh6j4&t=0s

Very good style choice

[dense field]

That whole sequence caught so many off guard

[winged jacinth]

Always liked watching phlydaily's reactions to the trailers

[dense field]

I wasn't following the leak lists back then and thought the aircraft on the thumbnail was a 29

[winged jacinth]

Been following his channel since like 2015 and it's fun to see how he was right with every prediction about future additions

[dense field]

Oh yeah lmao

Remember his reaction

Phly is a legend
He's back recently

I've been following him since 2013
I've been playing since 2013

[winged jacinth]

I need to check

Also this trailer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjG3rOKGWGc&t=0s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siwpn14IE7E

Play both at the same time

[dense field]

Doo ruh dood doo ruh dooo ruh

The song choice on that one is actually already good. People wanted dander zone but I liked it

Fits to the trailer

[winged jacinth]

Yeah it's good

But I think it was intentional that it matches up so well with danger zone

[dense field]

https://youtu.be/fJrT2vP-mpQ?si=Psn5jRAhdhb7m6ob

I like this one too

Even though it got nothing special

The voice system introduction was on spot

I'm a sucker for small details

And I'm still mad that the aircraft voice overs do not announce incoming missiles anymore

Idk why

[winged jacinth]

Damn

[dense field]

They used to tell you the heading, altitude of the missile and chaff flare

[dense field]

💀

[winged jacinth]

Huh, why not?

[dense field]

Idek
And I'm the only one in this world who care about it it seems

[winged jacinth]

Like why don't they do that anymore I mean

[winged jacinth]

Weird

[dense field]

It's just RWR ping now

[winged jacinth]

Well gaijin always makes weird decisions

Traction has been driving me mad for so many years

And they went and made it worse like half a year ago

They also block off parts of the map either with rocks or with the red no-play-zone

[dense field]

I thought top tier ground would die with spall liners ngl

[winged jacinth]

They want it to be the same match every game

[dense field]

Don't even get me started on maps

[winged jacinth]

Probably a mod to bring it back?

Never used a mod before

[winged jacinth]

Oh man I would ban 80% of the maps if I could

But they are hell bent on us only being able to ban 1 map

https://tenor.com/view/venom-tom-hardy-screaming-gif-11035878

They value the queue times way too much

[dense field]

What War Thunder stand for: 🗿
What War Thunder is: 🤓

[winged jacinth]

Also why they refuse to decompress the br's

[winged jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/gaijin-gif-22772894

[dense field]

Fudge if I know
We should have like BR 16 lmao

[winged jacinth]

Like the queue time is always 1-5 seconds anyway

Why are they so defensive about it

[dense field]

We all want decompression and smaller games

But we never get them

[winged jacinth]

Yeah

Funny how it takes the entire community banding together and creating a union to get anything done

They just refuse to listen

[dense field]

Yeah that incident was godsend

It had to happen

[winged jacinth]

At least they made the grind a bit better

[dense field]

They made great decisions after that
But still a long way to go

[winged jacinth]

Still need to spend way too much time grinding stuff to get anything

[dense field]

It's not as bad on air

[winged jacinth]

Yeah at least we got that

[dense field]

Air grinding is fair bit more forgiving

Ground is cringe

[winged jacinth]

Air grind is so much easier than ground, I don't get why they can't increase ground rb rp rewards

Like I get 10k-25k rp in ground rb

Depending on the length of the match

24 minute match for 25k rp

Premium account and vehicle

[dense field]

10k?
What you're playing lmao
I get 7 kills, 3 assist and 2 captures with a premium tank and a premium account, barely getting 10k

It's abysmal

[winged jacinth]

I'm a major whale and exclusively grind with premium tanks

But yeah it's still bad even with that

I can't imagine being a free 2 play user

[dense field]

I mean kind of same for America but I still don't get that much
Maybe because matches don't last long at 10.0

It's either one side getting vaporised or another

[winged jacinth]

I avoid top tier till I can't anymore

[dense field]

Avoid 10.0

8.7-9.7 gud

[winged jacinth]

Like play the premiums of lower tiers until they stop being effective for the current vehicle I'm researching

[dense field]

Vehicle like AMX super and T55 AMD are very fun

[winged jacinth]

Game map and loop really isn't designed for such modern vehicles

Still the same objectives and gameplay loop as when there were only ww2 tanks

[dense field]

Mhm

[winged jacinth]

I also enjoy the concept of naval and the basic gameplay

[dense field]

Which is why I find cold war era still fun

[winged jacinth]

I like 1.0-9.0

But mid tier is my favourite

[winged jacinth]

😧

[dense field]

Never got into naval
I tried but the initial grind is too hard with the torpedo boats

[winged jacinth]

The entire grind is annoying

Until you get to the top of the food chain

Only fun part of current naval is playing as a top tier

Battleship or battlecruiser

It's also in my opinion the most unbalanced mode by far, you can't do this in air or ground

Sure bots play a part in it but still

[dense field]

Nah its probably not fun as every other top tier
Played air top tier in multiple nations, it's lame, still addicting though
Played ground top tier in multiple nations, it's lame. In a bad way.
I'm sure Naval is no different

[shell rapids]

He shall be flattened once more

[dense field]

What the fudge
4 million?

Sheesh imma grind events with they holy crab

[winged jacinth]

Probably yeah

[winged jacinth]

Naval is good for sl grinding so long as you don’t die

[winged jacinth]

Also really good for naval events, remember getting one of those event stars in 3 games

[dense field]

Forget that
You can basically get any event vehicle with this
Wait no you can't they changed it lmao

[winged jacinth]

Gaijin wouldn’t want it too easy

[dense field]

There has to be a naval reward
You used to be able to get rewards from any mode

Like play ships to get the aircraft

[winged jacinth]

For which ones? Crafting events?

[dense field]

I got Moderna playing Children of Arachis mode itself
I still see giant double barrel tanks in my dreams

[dense field]

Those and the "get 40k points in 2 days" ones

[winged jacinth]

That's commitment

At least the mode was pretty fun

[dense field]

Yeah that was bearable

[winged jacinth]

Honestly don't remember anymore, there have been so many and they always change the conditions

[dense field]

I legit sat down and played that god damn mode for 5 hours for 2 weeks

[winged jacinth]

My worst addiction was like 2 or so years ago

Had 250 hours per 2 weeks on steam only playing war thunder

[dense field]

Worth it
Now Moderna is like 260 bucks lmao

[winged jacinth]

Was grinding all 3 stars for events in a day instead of 2

Then also playing the other day just for grinding tech tree

[winged jacinth]

Did you redeem or sell it?

[dense field]

[winged jacinth]

Or still keeping it maybe

[dense field]

I redeemed it
Like my rare tanks!

[winged jacinth]

My man

I just collect everything

[dense field]

• imo the best looking tank in the game

[winged jacinth]

Only sucky part is the lacking turret traverse compared to other t-72's

[dense field]

I was so torn between Khalid and 30 Super

I got super in the end

Both are good

Well, all tanks at that br kinda perform the same to be honest

[dense field]

Yeah that troo

Except Sergeant York

[winged jacinth]

and amx super is very good lucking as well

[dense field]

That thing is not 9. 0 lmfao

[dense field]

[winged jacinth]

In a bad or good way? Haven't grinded USA that much

Cannon spaa at that br is kinda high though

[dense field]

In a good way
Like if you're down tiered to 8.0, it's no fly zone

Even more so than on your regular br

[winged jacinth]

Ah good, have always heard it is a very well performing spaa

Thought it might have changed

[dense field]

The shells before the top one you get have been hit a bit

But the top proxy shell is still amazing

[winged jacinth]

Proxy shells are so satisfying

I love the cv90s, and wz305 for their proxy

And the big derp guns as well

[dense field]

Wz305 does not feel fair to use lmao

[winged jacinth]

At least it's open top

https://tenor.com/view/shrug-gif-25269231

[dense field]

Yeah at least

But man

Anti everything

[winged jacinth]

Yeah it's extremely good in a flank

[dense field]

Me talking with Vidar

[winged jacinth]

The vidar infestation is still going strong

Playing at 8.0-8.3 at the moment and they are everywhere

Pests

[dense field]

I played ground RB after months with Vidar and got a nuke at my first game

Yeah

[winged jacinth]

It's very good

[dense field]

That thing gonna go up

[winged jacinth]

It has 3rd gen thermals right?

[dense field]

Mhm

[winged jacinth]

Who decided to put it at 7.7?

well now it's 8.0

But what difference does that make

[dense field]

I mean it won't make a difference even if it's at 9.0 to be fair

Fast derp gun

Bad at close quarters

[winged jacinth]

Yeah it's one of those that work at any br

[dense field]

As long as its in position before others, which it will, it's going to be doing what it does

So just put it at 9.0

[winged jacinth]

I have no idea how gaijin decides the br on some things to be honest

Maybe they just want it to fit in a lineup

Who knows

[dense field]

Dunno
I'm currently using it with the premium strv 103 lol

Pretty strong combo

[winged jacinth]

Think it should be 9.3 for the 9.3 lineup

[winged jacinth]

Strv 103 is my favourite tank in the game

Such a joy to play

[dense field]

I feel bad for Mauses

[winged jacinth]

Well everyone does

They are punching bags

[winged jacinth]

It's still my second most played vehicle even though I've finished the Sweden grind

[dense field]

Well
I guess that's the only way?
Put them any lower and they erase the lobby

[winged jacinth]

Yeah but to be honest they are pretty strong even at their current br

Like people underestimate how strong they are

Would even say they are very good in the right hands

[dense field]

Really good KD on ground!
My best is with M18 lmao
And still the most played tank of mine
Sideshooting Germans was addictive

[winged jacinth]

Man I also love the M18

Preying on the clueless german mains

Perfect br range as well

[dense field]

Now it's at 6.0 :(

7.0 kind of doo doo for it

Russian heavies

[winged jacinth]

This thing is basically just a slightly worse M18 but I really enjoyed grinding with it, got a lot of nukes before I couldn't use it anymore

[winged jacinth]

At least the is-6 got moved up to 7.7

That thing has been a menace for far too long

[dense field]

I hate that one because I'd play M18 to counter Germans and those guys would be on position with me, ruining my plans

[winged jacinth]

Do you remember when it was new to the game?

[dense field]

I don't want to

[winged jacinth]

The german main body guards

[winged jacinth]

It had some hidden 150mm plate behind the mantlet or something if i recall corretly

So the mantlet "weakspot" was in reality 250mm or something

Also it was 6.7

Was such a great time to go against them in a tiger 2

[dense field]

T55 AM still terrorising the BR:

Russian vehicles just do that

[winged jacinth]

I just sigh when I see them in matches

I don't get how they used to be the same br as this one

[dense field]

[winged jacinth]

Don't get me wrong, the type 69-IIa is very good but it was the same br as the t55AM

Like how

[dense field]

Low tier air is dominated by Yak3
Mid tier air is dominated by Su7
Cold era air is dominated by MiG19
Top tier air is dominated by Su27

You'll probably have a better idea on the ground than me

But that's how air goes

[winged jacinth]

It depends on the day for me

But turm 3 absolutely dominates its br range

That thing is mental

Got 4 nukes in a row with it once

[dense field]

Oh yeah I know that one

Also KV1 B

[winged jacinth]

30mm autocannon, 5 s reload 105mm gun at 8.3

https://tenor.com/view/clueless-gif-24395495

Also ludicrous mobility

And trolly survivability

[dense field]

Leopard 1 with none of those in 0.3 br lower:

[winged jacinth]

All the armored KV-1's are a menace

Though the german one is slightly better since it doesn't go against german 75mm's

[dense field]

Well, leo1 kind of dominated 7.0 for a while
But at 8.0 it's trash

[winged jacinth]

At least the leopard has a trolly mantlet

Especially against apds

[winged jacinth]

Yeah it's very mediocre

At least they got this instead

[dense field]

My favourite German tank was 2K
If I has Bagel, it'd be bagel

[winged jacinth]

If you wanna sealclub really hard just go with either of these

[winged jacinth]

The 2k is so nice to use

Having a 20mm roof mount is divine

Bagel as well, really unique too because it's the only tank in the game with the bofors 57mm autocannon

[dense field]

I have the German 747 T34 and the KV2

That 34 served me well

[winged jacinth]

They moved it up yeah?

I used to hate being against them with my soviet 4.0 lineup

[dense field]

Realised it has more armor and angled it all the time, kept bouncing hits

[dense field]

Yeah 4.3 now I think

[winged jacinth]

When a german main discovers angling

https://tenor.com/view/brain-brain-cells-unlock-your-brain-gif-14425366

[winged jacinth]

Ah damn

[dense field]

Angled tiger is still scary

[winged jacinth]

I respect an angled tiger even in my 6.7 lineups

[dense field]

Inb4 uptiered to heat rounds

[winged jacinth]

Sometimes they don't even need to angle because of these 2 little bros

[winged jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/feed-the-void-black-cat-snack-hungry-cat-hungry-gif-306965068353833327

[dense field]

My bane of existence

Those and the T34 driver hatch

[winged jacinth]

The number of times I've shot a tiger in the ufp and hit one of them just to get executed afterwards

You just have to resign to fate

[dense field]

34 driver hatch ate my long 88 shells

A LONG FRIGGIN 88

[winged jacinth]

They don't care

[dense field]

Anyways it's been fun talking about suffering
I gotta dip its 5 am almost lmao

[winged jacinth]

Why didn't they build their tanks out of driver ports?

[dense field]

[winged jacinth]

Alright, fun talking to a fellow war thunder hostage, have a good one

https://tenor.com/view/bobby-hill-wave-waving-hand-waving-gif-king-of-the-hill-gif-7224187180821632360

[dense field]

Hit me back if you ever want to play

And potentially regret doing so

[winged jacinth]

Yeah just send me a message whenever you want, pretty much always online if i'm on my pc

Same name as on discord

[dense field]

[winged jacinth]

I'm throwing games constantly at the moment anyway, would appreciate the boost

Anyway, cya 👋

[dense field]

See yous

[winged jacinth]

@dense field Sorry for ping, sent a friend request to who I believe is you in war thunder before i head to bed

[dense field]

I go by Evrimomono

I just woke up so I'll see if I can find you

I had pet rats about a decade ago
They were cute but they just don't live long enough imo

First Animal species of the day (322) :
house centipede (Scutigera coleoptrata)

Scutigera coleoptrata, also known as the house centipede, is a species of centipede that is typically yellowish-grey and has up to 15 pairs of long legs. Originating in the Mediterranean region, it has spread to other parts of the world, where it can live in human homes.[1] It is an insectivore; it kills and eats other arthropods, such as insects and arachnids

The body of an adult Scutigera coleoptrata is typically 25 to 35 mm (1.0 to 1.4 in) in length, although larger specimens are sometimes encountered.[6] Up to 15 pairs of long legs are attached to the rigid body. Together with the antennae they give the centipede an appearance of being 75 to 100 mm (3 to 4 in) in length.[6] The delicate legs enable it to reach surprising speeds of up to 0.4 meters per second (1.3 ft/s)[citation needed] running across floors, up walls and along ceilings. Its body is yellowish-grey and has three dark dorsal stripes running down its length; the legs also have dark stripes. S. coleoptrata has developed automimicry in that its tail-like hind legs present the appearance of antennae. When the centipede is at rest, it is not easy to tell its cranial end from its caudal end

House centipedes lay their eggs in spring. In a laboratory observation of 24 house centipedes, an average of 63 and a maximum of 151 eggs were laid. As with many other arthropods, the larvae look like miniature versions of the adult, albeit with fewer legs. Young centipedes have four pairs of legs when they are hatched. They gain a new pair with the first molting,

House centipedes feed on spiders, bed bugs, termites, cockroaches, silverfish, ants, and other household arthropods. They administer venom through forcipules. These are not part of their mandibles, so strictly speaking they sting rather than bite. They are mostly nocturnal hunters. Despite their developed eyes, they seem to rely mostly on their antennae when hunting. Their antennae are sensitive to both smells and tactile information. They use both their mandibles and their legs for holding prey.

S. coleoptrata is indigenous to the Mediterranean region, but it has spread through much of Europe, Asia, North America and South America.[8] It has also been introduced to Australia

Rip to all the erasers I stabbed to death

LMAO this brings back so many memories memories

Guh, when I was a kid I never liked the look of stabbed erasers, like that just looks like mold to me still
