  • The problem with that is, Japan was willing to fight on after the first bomb. They tried labelling it a natural disaster at first; if the second bomb wasn’t dropped, they probably wouldn’t have surrendered. Sure they could have waited longer to confirm that, but then there’s more troops dying on both sides while they wait - more unnecessary deaths.


  • I’ll eat up anything they put out:
    Perun (War economics, logistics, procurement, etc)
    The Chieftain (Tank history and doctrine)
    CGP Grey (Deep dives on random topics)
    The Operations Room (High quality visualizations of historical battles)
    The Intel Report (Followup topics related to Operations Room)
    dnsl (Trolling in games)

    Channels I’ll binge on once in a while:
    Drachinifel (Naval history)
    agadmator (Chess breakdowns)
    Forgotten Weapons (Firearm history and mechanics)
    Lockpicking Lawyer (Lock history and picking)
    LifesAGlitchTV (StarCraft 2 commentary duo)
    Spookston (War Thunder gameplay)
    The Tank Museum (More tank history)
    Real Engineering (Deep dives on interesting engineering)
    Scott Manley (Space & rocketry related topics)






  • For me, remembering numbers; like ID numbers, part numbers, phone numbers, etc. When I worked as a parts guy at a shop, I would frequently be able to bring up the exact part that fits the customer’s machine assuming I had looked it up once or twice before. If it was something I hadn’t looked at in a while I’d still usually double check fitment, but I probably had a 99% accuracy on part numbers.




  • As far as I can tell, you are logged into both; if you vote or reply or save a post, it will do so on the account of the instance you’re browsing from. Now this can be confusing, because you can be looking at a post on lemmy.world through lemdo.id and upvote it on there, then if you browse through lemmy.world you can upvote the same post again with that account.

    I personally try to avoid upvoting the same thing through multiple accounts (I have this one, but sometimes browse through beehaw) but it doesn’t seem like there’s any protections against doing so right now
