My suggestion:

Trust me, when you are poor and white, unless you have benevolent and rich relatives, you aren’t in any better shape. Most loans are booked against national credit worthiness ratings firms in a blind manner for insulation against civil rights lawsuits over unfair lending practices. If your numbers are too low, you…

Those credit union accounts are a lot more than a lot of people ever have.

More like, captive audience...

Its real simple: If you are poor, and have bad credit, you likely live paycheck to paycheck with little to no cushion. When something comes up that is going to drive you negative in your one and only bank account, and you can’t get a short term loan from a bank, you have two choices.

But you’re missing the point. Around here, you most certainly deserve the nice things in life if you’ve done all that...

Wow, that’s a stretch. What this says is that she takes family seriously. But, in case you think she’s completely hideous in this, notice the collateral on this bond. Its the house that he lives in (and another that her mom lives in). She’s helping her brother to get a fair shot at trial, not condemning this little…

But, to the nonlegal side of this, that’s what is already taught in formalized settings. If there is any doubt, you don’t have consent. What affirmative consent is asking for is that everybody drop all the BS “coyness” or “playing hard to get” and pause to tske a monent and discuss consent, boundaries, safe words,…

The problem here is you start pushing towards affirmative consent being the only real consent. How does one prove that affirmative consent ever occurred during the encounter? How does one withdraw affirmative consent? It must always be the perogative of someone in an intimate context to be able to withdraw consent at…

The rafale is not a low observable aircraft primarily and was designed before the advanced geometry diverterless intake duct found on the F-35 was perfected. Instead, as you’ll notice, it conforms to the angle of the aircraft’s skin, staying close, but clear of the slower boundary layer air. This optimizes the airflow…

The F-35B only has thrust vectoring for landing and STO operations. The Thrust Vectoring isn’t the high maneuverability kind that the -22 has. The A and C lack it entirely. The maneuverability of the F-35 is a function of its weight, its available thrust, its aerodynamic drag, and its wing loading. It has made…

Thank you. I always wondered what the real proceedure for “derating” was for military and commercial aircraft. I figured that, in the days of FADEC, they just programmed the computers to limit the fuel flow to the engines under normal LAW/flight conditions, but left an emergency setting just in case.

I was under the impression that the ARJ-21 was largely a modified Boeing 717/MD-93/95, even so far as using the same tooling that was originally used to make them in their earlier factory.

Can you imagine an AN-224 derivative with 4 GE90s at around 110K lbs of thrust each instead of 6 of the older russian turbines? The range, the capacity. You could hang external fuel tanks on the pylon spaces for the center engine on each wing and just get ridiculous amounts of range. I have to believe that it would…

So, you just number up to the notch 1 through 10, and then mark the end of the throttle track with an 11? Then, you can claim that your plane is better because the throttles go up to 11, just like that?

There’s a penalty to be paid for higher payloads, CATOBAR capabilities and the commensurate fuel usage. If you remove all of those things, you the the YF-17A, which was in the competition with the F-16 when it was selected. It was not a bad performer and designed in the same category.

The STOVL flight profile absolutely affects wing design, which also affects performance, specifically, absolute speed and maneuverability. However, given that the A, B, and C all use modestly different wings (take a look at the wing plan ilustrations that are out there), the sins of the B don’t affect the A and C as…

Engines are all about completely optimized airflow these days. Even the shape of the rear of the cowling and the exhaust gas mixing ratios are important. An S duct internal engine would never be able to control that mixing and would have fan diameter issues with fitment. Primary fans are MUCH larger than they used to…

Honestly, dodge grand caravan, factory dsrk rear windows, stow and go, memory foam sleeping pad, it babies in every possible way...

I’m fully prepared to get flamed out of existence here, but, here goes...
