Where to find old ads like these?

I love these old type of ads for military products, whether it be planes, grenade launchers or firearms. However I was wondering if there was a database/website where I could find a bunch of them to make posters out of for myself. Does anyone know of this sort of thing? Thanks yall!

Edit: Thanks for all the feedback! I'll start looking on Ebay for old magazines and I'll see what I get. Have a good day yall!

Fun fact about the Hunger Game movies

Something I realized while watching the movies:

In the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Snow uses a G3 rifle as his Peacekeeper firearm, while in Mockingjay Pt. 2 Peeta is using a G36, a gun made by the same company (Heckler & Koch) a few decades later.

This would make sense in a country like Germany, but would be weird in the US where neither were adopted/used by the US military at any point. Maybe the writers wanted to be consistent in their gun choices? It was just something interesting I noticed.

Do you buy games before you can run them?

The title basically.

I have a really bad laptop that can't run Fortnite, let alone RDR2. However I see the games I like go on sale from time to time, so I was just wondering about yall. Do you buy games before you can actually play them and have them sit in your library? Or do you wait until you have a better machine to get them?

Edit: Thanks for the feedback! I'm broke rn anyways, but it was nice to hear what others do. Have a good day!

What are yalls backgrounds?

Found this sub from a post in r/teenagers And while I do consider myself left leaning (I would vote Democrat, but they do have their own problems), it is really interesting to see the other side.

I actually grew up conservative (Iowa born and raised) and I was just wondering, what kind of backgrounds do yall have? What shaped your beliefs? What do yall believe in? Is there anything yall collectively agree on? I've been out of the loop of it for awhile so it would be interesting to see how its changed.

Now, to be clear, I am not hating yall. Everyone has a right to their opinions/beliefs, and who am I to tell you you're wrong.​ I think that discourse/ discussion is necessary part of democracy, and it sucks seeing the toxic comments yalls posts get. There are extreme people on all sides, and it really tarnishes reputations.

Feel free to ask me any questions yall have! I'll try to get back to this post, but its late at night so we'll see. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks for the discussions yall! Feel free to comment/ share more opinions, but I won't reply to any until tomorrow.

Did I do well? Or chop more?

Before and after same day.

Its my first time actually growing anything out so I let it run its course, but I start work soon so I figured I should trim it. I trimmed too short at the jaw and decided to just chop it all off.

Did I do well? Does the mustache stand on its own or should it go too? 3rd picture is me circa January with much less facial hair. Thanks yall!

Minecraft 1.0 Help

I recently wanted to play version 1.0 of minecraft, and started playing. However theres a bunch of visual bugs I can't fix.

When I hold something in my hand, my hotbar and all the items lose textures.

The terrain will also occasionally turn a blank green.

Any idea how to fix this? Is there an early version that fixes this (for example, 1.9)? I have an Intel UHD 620 for a graphics card. Thanks yall!

Edit: Animals also do not render in

500 Hours!

Just hit 500 hours!

I took a long hiatus from the game, but needed to get my mind off of finals so I got back in. Logged off at the military base near Rosewood to see that I finally hit the mark.

As a reward the game gave me (I kid you not) my first ever HottieZ magazine so that was cool. Also don't mind the queasy moodle its because of the corpse sickness.

Correct SAW Optic?

I've seen these optics/sights on the SAW in many different photos, so I just would like to know what was the most common for a GWOT SAW gunner. Thanks yall!

Which one to buy?

I doubt I will decide based on what the internet says, but the more advice the better.

I am in the market for a Forester, and have found 2 options:

2009 Forester

165k miles

3k in maintenance (needs new tires, breaks, and rear ball bearings)

Private Sale for 3400 (could negotiate down)

2017 Forester

117k miles

No maintenance, 60 day warranty

Carmax for 14999

I am a college student located in the north east, so I know rust might be an issue. The 2009 was "7/10" according to the mechanic I just took it to. He said that those 3 things need to get fixed, but that the timing belt and head gaskets (and the rest of the car) were solid.

The 2017 is obviously better/newer/safer, but I don't really enjoy the thought of being tied down to a car payment, especially after I previously had a 2014 that worked great until I hit a deer and totaled it. Car payment would work out to something like 180 per month, which is manageable for me (though a bit pricey). I would pay it off in 5 years.

What would yall choose in my position? Which car has the better track record? Which is the better deal? Thanks yall.

Edit: I should have included my net worth is 8k, so if the car breaks I'm screwed either way

u/CurrentDog3300 — 12 days ago

You were the chosen one! It was said that you would reject Cag, not join it! Bring grunts back to BMR5, not leave it in modernity!

For real though I can't believe my main character is a GWOT "Cag" soldier, when for the longest time I hated multicam (Flecktarn is my favorite).

Happy May the Fourth yall.

I recently got to a point where I am comfortable spending my cash on vitamins and such (I have over 100k and nothing to spend it on) so Im actually having loadouts with more than dressings and bandages.

With that said, what are yall carrying? Currently I carry 4 vitamins and 3 smokes for a combined 330$. Is that high? Low? Input would be great.

So I'm in the market for an Outback. I have been looking on marketplace specifically for an 09, because I heard 2010+ have transmission issues that'll total the car. In my research I've seen quite a bit that the head gaskets on 09s are an issue, and that they typically need to be replaced before they burst and ruin the engine.

For context I've been looking at Outbacks with 100k-170k miles selling for 2.5k-5k in New England.
What I would like to ask is:

How big of a problem are they?

Are they guaranteed to break?

How much does it typically cost to replace before they break? What about after?

Do 09 Foresters have the same issue?

Anyones experiences would be appreciated. Thanks yall!

I recently got an LC-2 ALICE web gear set, and was wondering if I need to tweak anything. Mostly:

How are the pouch placements?

Is that the correct way to wear it?/is the back strap too long?

Is the medical/compass pouch supposed to be there? It's secured with one ALICE clip through that little loop by the ring.

I think I did well, I just wanted to make sure. Thanks yall!

The ONE night I stay out too long I just get decimated. Can't kill them, can't hide, can't run. Like how are you able to even beat that?

Edit: Thanks for all the advice! I normally find a place to stay by 1600 but I got caught out while doing Wetworks. Hope yall have a good day!

I bought a medium pack a few months ago and its been great. However I've been getting more into surplus and want a frame to go with it. However all the frames I find either have a bag with it for 100-130 bucks (I dont need another) or the frame itself is 70 bucks.

Do any of yall know if there's a cheaper way to get one? I'm guessing 70 is the fair/market price, I was just wondering if you guys had any insight for getting it cheaper. Thanks yall!

Sorry same pic as last post about it, I don't have any new ones.
