They didn’t. Samurai were primarily mounted cavalry. They used bows and spears that required both hands. That modded should’ve made them armoured horse archers.
Still using one with a jack. Other must haves for me are sd slot and tool less sim tray.
They may not have to maximise profits but the shareholders will question every decision that doesn’t maximise profits so the result is the same. That’s why activist investors that push companies to more ethical behaviour are important.

Serial Killer ni Isekai Oritatsu?
The MC Fatwa from /r/warcollege needs to be brought over to Lemmy.
No mercy for the heretical Millennium Challenge posters. If you’re credulously posting this as an example of how Iranian motorcycle messengers driving ICBM equipped rowboats can beat carriers, you really need to do more reading on this topic.

Van Riper was told to cut that shit out because he basically cheated. His “motorcycle couriers” operated exactly like radio communications, transmitting orders instantly with no loss or disruption. The US fleet was placed miles offshore by the simulation because of peacetime shipping lanes instead of at standoff range like in a real conflict. His “missile boats” were a bunch of fishing boats and yachts carrying AShM larger than the boats themselves. He blanketed paratrooper LZs with chemical weapons because he knew where they were dropping ahead of time.
Then after being told to stop, he went crying to the media instead.

Vaping is still available in Australia as an aid to quit smoking. It just requires a prescription.
Running out of old stockpiles to send. Western militaries have plenty to spare, but it’d be the ammo they actually use.
Me: “do you close the bathroom door while shitting?”
Them: “yes”
Me: “why? You have nothing to hide”
Samsung pushed an app in an update that plastered ads for charities all over my lock screen. Disabled that shit and my next phone isn’t going to be a Samsung.
Something something bOtH sIdEs.
We have the same system in Australia. Constitution sets a maximum govt term but a parliamentary majority can call an election at any time before then.
No one asked the residents huh.
I miss the age of videogame demos
Fuck the corps. That’s what piracy is for.
Because that’s where the most active NCD community is.
I know that feeling. Though I went straight to my steam backlog so I traded one addiction for another.
