“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending.

Rules don’t matter in a failing nation

His Most Beneficent and Legendary Astral Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus, recently caused some really severe ass-pain for a bunch of “Americans” originally from the Dirt World who just happen to be freshmen Congresscritters...

The Trillion-Dollar AWACS

I have been an extremely harsh critic of the F-35, especially the VTOL version for the Marine Corps, for years. But it would appear that there is some reason to think that the F-35 might just come good after all – under a very, very specific set of mission...

What fresh heresy is this?!?!

Domain Query: Fun With Numbers, Sloot-Hunter Edition

Reader Chad Tyrone stopped by to offer his observations in response to a post that I wrote a long while back about how it is tragic to see a woman hit the dreaded Wall: The man who wrote this must be from an older generation. That’s ok. It’s just that it’s hard for...

Big Brother doesn’t need to watch you

In China, at least, all he has to do is to look at your mobile phone’s data. And, yes, in case you are wondering – yes, the ChiComs are a particularly impressive kind of high-tech evil: I am in the middle of re-reading 1984, for the first time since high...
