I didn't know there was a bulletproof vehicle in GTAV - I just bought one. Now if only you could fit the missile lock jammers to it ... that'll wreck a griefers whole day!

There is in GTA Online, not in the story mode. However, if you buy the right combination of content, or if you preordered, or threw dead chickens in the general direction of Rockstar North (i forget), you could get The Duke (i think?) which was a special DLC that was ugly as sin, and built like a tank, complete with bullet proofing. That one you can use in the story mode. The one I was referring to was online only unless you hacked your save file.

They fixed that bug. It was never intentional.

The armored karuma you get from the heist wasn't supposed to be bulletproof? I thought that was the whole point of the car? Why the heck would you pay half a million for what amounts to a subaru with some sheetmetal over the glass if it isn't even bullet proof?

Bulletproof != indestructible
For a period of time, there were Kurumas that were completely indestructible...like, enemies chasing you. I don't know if you could get to (somehow) keep those, but it annoyed some people when they fixed that.

To be clear, I deliberately never said indestructible, as I wasn't aware there weren't any indestructible cars in the game that you could actually get. As a long time GTA player, I'm aware there are different flags in the game engine for different levels of invulnerability on vehicles, so I choose my words carefully here.
GTA Vice City's white car from the mission Guardian Angels was for example, virtually indestructible until you put it in a pay and spray - virtually being you could still flip it over. Once pay and sprayed, the tires were vulnerable but nothing else was. Hillary's vehicle in the race mission (the sabre turbo) was however, simply bulletproof.
The bulletproof karuma is visibly armored, like you'd expect a bulletproof vehicle to be. You use it in the first online heist mission you can do. You can buy it for i think half a mil afterward.

OK, if we're going to dot the I's and cross the T, what I should have said is that the Kurumas that had the bug (as I understand it) had indestructible windows, but the car was otherwise still vulnerable. 
Kurumas with bulletproof windows, OTOH, can still be shattered if you fire enough bullets/rockets at them.
Anyway. This horse has been beaten to death.

... and it is coming.
The portents are all there. Unmistakable for all those with open eyes. Barely a month and a day away.
Get ready for the 2/2/2022 memes!

Few days later, at least for those who don't use a heretic date-format, will find themselves on the day of "22-02-22". On that day, we will pass "22:02.22" as a point in time. Two minutes past ten in the evening.
That specific point in time, is "22-02-22, at 22:02.22". If you plan something that day, you might be better of to change the time to "11:01.11".

In dmy format, we have 22-02-2022, which is a palindrome.
In dmy hms format, we have 22-02-2022 02:20:22 and 22-02-22 22:20:22, which are also palindromes.
In ymd hms format, we have 2022-02-22 20:22:02, which is a palindrome.
In mdy hms format, we have 02-20-2022 02:02:20 and 02-20-22 22:02:20, which are palindromes.
(There are also other palindromes, but they use digits not found in the year 2022)

We plan to have an online memorial. Zoom would restrict us to 40 minutes with 100 people. I think the 100 people is OK, but we need more time. Any suggestions?
|
|
|
|
|

I think free version is limited to 100 persons and 60 minutes for a single meeting.
Would it be possible to divide the memorial to multiple meetings, each 60 minutes?

I try to avoid "large meetings" as I follow the old adage "The IQ of any committee is the IQ of the dumbest person in the room divided by the number of attendees".

Don't we all? (need more time)
Before Zoom, there was Skype, or Team. There still are. Perhaps they can help?

The United States military uses the format: DD-MM-YYYY which is the same, more or less as the default for E.U., minus the difference of dots and hyphens.
Why can't the ENTIRE WORLD use the same format.
