Some do, full flaps and uncomfortable high pitch (well, no flaps in that picture as it is a Mirage).
Of course there are probably certain types of jets that cannot fly below 150kt and it’s not like actual fighters capabilities are advertised on internet. I only know that Rafale is said to go “below 120kt” with 16 degrees pitch up in 15 tons configuration, FA-18 is something like 135kt at pitch 30 ! (I’d love to see a picture of that)
A French horror youtuber (Feldup) talked about it, saying the same thing as you (do not search for it, do not watch it).
But from his description what I understood is:
The passenger was the wife, the driver the dad and behind them were the kids that you can hear crying and dad telling them not to watch.
Anyway, don’t watch it. I stopped scrolling on /b the day I saw a woman getting killed. Looking for this kind of stuff is bad and makes people feel nothing when confronted with human misery and horror, that’s not a skill you want in life.
Oh boy, he’s going to learn where he is in 3, 2, 1…
The CEO love to gargle on Trump balls.
Pardon my French
Putain de bordel de merde ça me casse les couilles, we are not that vulgar.
Canary Islands (Spain) because it is one of the best climate in the world. Always mid, average temperatures are around 20 degrees so winters are nice and summers not too hot. + you can go to the beach every day and it is Europe so you’ve got EU quality of life.
But I wont do it. Canarians are dying because of tourism, AirBnB and nomad workers. They can’t pay rents, there’s water shortages and too many old retired fucks from UK or Germany unable to speak Spanish and owning 25 apartments to short term rent. Fuck them, I wont be part of the problem.
So next solution is staying home, which happens to be one of the best country in the world for quality of life (Switzerland), so that’s not too bad. Food is not the best but France and Italy are less than 2h away by train.
I just need Tokyo to be a 2h train ride as well (for food yeah, again) and that would be perfect.
I liked the Las Vegas TV series from 2005.
Probably full of stereotypes but I was young at the time and really enjoyed seing the work done by the Montecito security team. Also, plenty of beautiful ladies making teenager me happy.
We know it wasn’t in the US otherwise they would have felt threatened and shot you.
Sorry it happened to you.
Live as an artist to take control of my time schedule. That means earn enough with art to not have to do a “normal” job to pay rent.
We need Lieutenant Aldo Raine back on duty (Brad Pitt in Inglorious Basterds)
*god damn it, it sucks to be right.*
I’m starting to feel the same way. When I was a teenager (more than 20 years ago) I wrote a short science fiction story. Being awesome with titles I simply named it “USA is the new nazi”.
Well, fuck.
I really like the “thermal runaway thing” expression, and yeah it is a false equivalency but it’s a funny one.
EV charging and the tech around it can be slow today, but it doesn’t mean we should abandon and go back to what we know is working (as some people want to). This is a recipe for zero innovation and not the way to become a Star Trek like civilization.
In my city there are electric buses that charge in a few seconds at some stops along the route. No overhead wires, no big diesel engines and no noise.
We just need to work and improve those new vehicles, find better than the actual EV and combustion engines as well.
Just get rid of the fuel stations. It’s ridiculous that vehicles owners should expect to refuel their cars anywhere but at home or at work
Yeah ok… Clean them like any normal logical human being, aka by using common sense and stuff you already have at home. Or buy those non necessary cleaning kits!
Thanks wired.
From life of experience, it’s just as you said: without lying.
You said it here, ‘I have an abusive family, I’m glad I managed to turn out ok but I don’t want them to involve you in their bullshit.’
And if you don’t want to talk about it just say it as well and leave the door open: ‘I don’t want to talk about it and ruin the day but if you want one day I’ll tell you.’
I’ve been married for almost 20 years without having met her parents, they didn’t “approve” our wedding and we just didn’t care about it. As long as you are two sane and respectful adults there’s no problems.
Thanks, I was searching for keyword “abbreviations” and not “acronym” so couldn’t find the post.
Air trafic controller (Europe, not FAA…)
It’s honestly a kind of dream job as I work around 2 weeks a month, have 7 weeks of paid vacation + I can call in “unfit to work” anytime with no question asked. We often work 2 to 4 hours less than the official time we are paid for. We get paid health cure and the job is not that hard or stressful when you are good at it (I’ve done it for 15 years, it’s like a second nature now).
The pay is very good, around 100k (€/$/chf, it’s basically the same) at entry level and around 220k after 20 years of experience. I’m at 150k for a 80% part time contract.
The only downsides are the working hours, 24h a day 7 days a week which gets tiring as you age. And that much money for not much work makes me lazy, not being at risk means I’m not making efforts to gets better. I dream of being an independent worker, working from home or anywhere in the world on my framework 13 by making creative work, but I’m not pushing hard for that dream as everything is ok with my life and job.
I know, that’s totally a “1st world problem” and I’m not complaining at all. It’s just that being too comfortable in something does not push you forward.
