This is why chatgpt is going to take over..
- Jolter 3y agoI don’t know the first thing about the US army, but several others have this figured out already. I’m Swedish and our tents have been round for … well I don’t know how long.
- nicenewtemp84 3y agoAre you proud you are ignorant about the miliatry operations of the world's most active military for the last 50+ years? You never saw a movie with a huge rectangular shape and thought "hey, that's different than ours here in Sweden? Let me jot that down, not everyone is like Sweden" ?
- Jolter 3y agoMy post was about how the assumption that a yurt would be an improvement over current technology makes some weird assumptions. Like, that current army tents are square. I don’t think it’s my responsibility to read up on how foreign armies operate in details like tent shape. Movies don’t generally dwell on such details. At least not the ones I watch. I don’t know what floats your boat — maybe there are movies about military logistics?
- nicenewtemp84 3y agoNone about logistics, other than often showing the bases in basically every single one ever made.
