Got to see F-35, F-22, Super Hornet, Spitfire, P-51 and a load of others at the Avalon airshow, and that was cool…
(Lots of footage from the flying display, too. Love how loud the F-35 is as it zooms overhead. Sadly there was a crash of one of the acrobatic biplanes, so F-16 and F-22 flying display was cancelled yesterday, but just glad pilot is alive).
…but as a support vehicle lover, I found my real love there:

VR talk interesting but we should probably do it here
I’m worried about the price tag on some of the next gen VR stuff tbh. Quest 2 pricing is ideal imo
wait theres an actual off topic?!
Yeah, has been lol
You mean T-50/PAK-FA? pretty sure Su-47 was a forward swept wing tech demonstrator
Quest 2 is ~200$ more expensive than it was when i bought it like 2-3 years ago. Its not really good bang for buck anymore. Completely useable headset, its what i currently have, but I wouldnt pay what they’re asking for it, id just go a step up with Quest 3, or go with a BigScreen Beyond 2, which is my next major game related purchase.

I still refuse to believe it’s real
Time for a PSA educational post about a word people on the forum use to demean others.
TL;DR:
Don’t accuse others of being delusional.
Tell others their feelings matter.
Tell others they’re equal to you.
Don’t statshame.
Tell others when you’ve edited a post to correct mistakes you made, and tell others they should always be honest with you in a PG manner.
Gaslighting, with examples at the end.
First source material:
I acknowledge to others I have discussions with that they and I are equals, and more often these days I also say their perspectives and opinions are valid because they are.
Gaslighting, as described in the video is making others feel less than yourself, invalidating your feelings, making you question your self [not your knowledge; but questioning your self, the you that you are; example later], never taking responsibility for actions, anxiety is nuanced as in the video it describes this anxiety as specifically causing one to walk on eggshells [not say things you would say around others].
Now, onto some examples. They are in the spoiler.
Spoiler
The questioning of oneself:
Accusing others of being delusional, insane, or otherwise wrong in a matter that brings up their psyche or level of self is gaslighting.
In further detail of questioning one’s self, the primary example underlying questioning involves this:
If someone comes to you and says the methods you used to come to your conclusions are inherent to your self and accuse that of being wrong to the extent of dismissing your views on everything, that is gaslighting.
Many people on the forum feel like others don’t treat them with respect, the basis of this conclusion for me is the false-accusations of gaslighting.
I’ve made an effort to go out of my way to make sure to tell others their methods and experience matters, is valid, and their opinions are valuable. This keeps many people whom have been abused by others know that at least I take them seriously and see their perspective as valid.
Making others feel small: An example of this is statshaming, the act of bringing up peoples’ stats to dismiss their perspectives as being less than your own.
Easy example.
Invalidation of feelings: This is most commonly done in face-to-face, in text people can’t predict what the other party is feeling.
However, an example in text form is people just outright saying your feelings on the matter are irrelevant.
I personally attempt to tell people that their feelings are valid whenever I remember to, because in text conversation it is difficult for others to know that the other party is treating their feelings with validity and respect.
Never taking responsibility: In text form this is people saying they’ve done no wrong, simple example.
I personally make attempts to tell others when I’ve made mistakes.
Every edited post is me taking responsibility for the errors of those posts, and do more to make sure that I tell people I’ve edited posts before or after doing so due to the mistakes I personally made typing up that post.
This makes people understand you’re acknowledging your mistakes as people would prefer to be told from yourself that you made a mistake than interpret your actions as you acknowledging your mistakes.
Last but not least: Eggshells.
Getting mad over someone mentioning their opinion and belittling them. Don’t do this.
What I attempt to do now when someone’s statement upsets me is I’ll address the specific part that upsets me and request that they provide feedback in a less aggressive manner while explicitly telling them I appreciate the feedback to my behavior and posts.
Tell others their feedback matters.
Thank you to everyone that watched the video. If my post has errors, do not hesitate to address those errors in a PG manner.
I hope everyone that did learn something from this will use this knowledge for kindness in the future, and not hostility.

Now I can tell you’ve read all of it cause your post has two examples in it. ;)
Funny post.
There’s a joke I heard recently:
How many gears to Italian tanks have?
Four, three reverse and one forward. One more thing. The forward gear is there in case the enemy flanks them.
