The exclusion zone seems just as arbitrary when it comes to dividing Central Asia from Siberia. Why create these straight line divisions, rather than say barring people from provinces or countries, or simply barring people on racial grounds, which I understand was the impetus behind the act in the first place? Someone on 4chan suggested that it had something to do with French influence in southwest China.

A map can be seen in the “Provisions” section of the above article.

I'm going to be serving Hainan Chicken + Rice to a group of about ~50 people.

Does anyone have any tips/tricks on how to go about cooking chicken and rice in such a large quantity?

My initial thoughts are to use a few whole chickens for the stock...then boiling separate leg/breast pieces to actually serve (white or dark meat options). Am I on the right track?

I'm just an amateur home cook, so this level of cooking is definitely a learning experience.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Good Morning San Diago,

I am Rensole and this is your daily news.

Does anyone smell that?

This is down a lot from the past week, at new years we were close to 2 trillion USD. It's speculated by some that this is due to the new quarter starting so it should be lower, but who knows we've seen a lot of messed up stuff happen in the past year.

Ryan Cohen Tweeted once more

But there is a twist! the original quote is from Franklin D Roosevelt saying 'Never underestimate a man who overestimates himself.'.

The original quote is still something people argue about, as some see it as someone who will overestimate himself might actually live up to their potential and surprise everyone, while others think someone who overestimates himself try some unexpected things and could do it extremely well.

Now RC switched the place over Overestimate/underestimate, which kindof links to an article of Charlie Munger talking about Elon Musk

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/14/charlie-munger-shares-opinion-of-tesla-ceo-elon-musk.html

> And “I have a third comment,” the billionaire investor continued: “Never underestimate the man who overestimates himself. I think Elon Musk is peculiar and he may overestimate himself, but he may not be wrong all the time.”

So again as always it's open to interpretation, but I personally like the fact that RC has become more frequent in posting regardless. Same thing with Larry Cheng he's been posting a lot of interesting things which could or could not be directly related to gamestop.

TLDR: GME=Bullish.

Do your worst!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

Battlefield 4

Dawnbreaker

Below the main road there is a gas pipe that can be blown up by activating two control valves (one located near D flag and one located near B flag). Once both control valves are activated, the gas pipe will explode after a couple of seconds. This will lead to the destruction of the bridge in the middle of the map, greatly reducing vehicle access. As well, new Battle Pickups will appear in the rubble.

In the parking building east of E and in the building by B there are elevators that can be used to access the rooftops of the respective buildings.

In the same parking building, there are street bollards that can be raised/lowered to limit vehicle access.

Flood Zone

In the northern edge of the map, there is a partially broken levee that can be destroyed. This can be done by using explosive ordnance against the levee. After the levee is destroyed, the map will be flooded, greatly changing gameplay: the streets will be mostly inaccessible and the ground vehicles will be replaced by boats.

On various roofs of the map, there are ladder hatches that can be opened and closed, but only from the top. Anyone who is below it has to shoot at the hatch to open it, disabling it from being opened or closed for a few seconds.

Golmud Railway

The D flag, which is located on a train, will move towards the captor's base when secured, making it harder for the other team to capture it.

Around the map, several IEDs are placed. These IEDs can be destroyed, either through explosive ordnance or through activating nearby detonation computers.

Hainan Resort

The two wings of the hotel can both be destroyed by shooting the supporting walls at the bottom with explosive ordnance. When enough walls are destroyed, the entire wing will fall down, killing anyone inside and making parts of the hotel inaccessible.

There are oil slicks located around the map; it is possible to light these using explosive or incinderary weaponry. While burning, they will damage and potentially kill any infantry nearby.

The tanker in the distance can be blown up by shooting a certain point on the bridge with a sniper rifle. Once this is done, the ship will explode, throwing lethal fragments all over the map.

Lancang Dam

The massive dam can be destroyed by shooting any sorts of explosive ordnance at it; after a while, the dam will collapse as a result. Massive amounts of rubble will cover the bridge, preventing vehicles from using this as a route, and wil

They’re on standbi

The maps really have so much potential. They feel undeniably empty, but they're also just too static. Imagine and picture with me the following:

MANIFEST: One of the ships at C1 or D1 topples over, all the shipping containers scatter, drastically changing the sectors. It's now a completely new labyrinth of wrecked, empty containers. You try to climb the wrecked containers while that ship sinks behind your back, drowning the unlucky ones behind you.

The tornado wrecks through the shipping yard, knocking down the cranes, the snipers falling to their deaths. The wind pummelling and destroying the perfectly stacked containers. The map turns into an ever-changing, unpredictable CQB nightmare.

KALEIDOSCOPE: Imagine a skyscraper or two collapsing, breaking apart and falling onto the empty sections of the park in the middle of the map, exposing sections of underground highway like in Siege of Shanghai. Maybe even secret, underground server rooms get exposed from the explosions, server whines and sparks, a brand new CQB location.

BREAKAWAY: Those huge chunks of ice? Fire a rocket and break and split them apart, creating completely new areas of cover, mixing up the fight. 20 people hiding behind one ice chunk with a revive train? Blast it to bits, expose them and open fire while they run to the new areas of cover.

The huge oil rig? Destroy the supports and have it collapse and burn up in its own oil, shattering the ice into pieces. Fall into the freezing water and you're done for.

ORBITAL: That rocket? It's either a successful launch or it blows up at the start, but what if it fails mid-flight? The parts explode, fall onto the earth and the VAB building, chipping the sides off the building like Hainan Resort in BF4. Failed rocket stages land onto points D1 and D2, breaking through the warehouses and tearing those walls down.

RENEWAL: All of you getting choked at C1 at the central wall and finally tank shots from the distance shatter the wall. In the smoke players rush in through the gap. Debris turning into new sections for cover. The floor above C1 collapses, and all the snipers holding that point fall down with the debris.

Meanwhile at the solar farm, soldiers run and scatter from vehicles as they crush and knock down the solar panels behind you, forming new points of cover.

HOURGLASS: Fighting through the sandstorm, you realise the sand shifts beneath your feet, revealing sections of the map that you didn't know about, a

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
