Cargo holds occupy the same pressure vessel as the passenger cabin. The entire airplane is pressurized as the same system. There isn’t a way to depressurize only the cargo area and even if you could planes don’t fly in space, there’s still oxygen at cruise altitudes.

Yeah, I wandered away from my main point which is that the PKK is in no fucking way gonna be handing over guns to ISIS as the article seems to imply because of their relationship to Turkey. They are certainly the more radical of the Kurdish groups and I agree that a free Kurdistan would be good. If nothing else it…

My brother had a Ranger with the twin traction beam design and I had a Nissan Xterra that used the same torsion bar setup at the same time. I used to make fun of his because it was so weird, the torsion bars make a lot of sense to me because it’s just a super compact spring that leaves plenty of room for all the front…

During a press conference in Ankara, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan referred to the YPG (People’s Protection Units) as a terrorist organization, not too different from Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) that has been fighting the Turkish state in an armed insurgency in southeast Turkey since 1984.

I tallied up the negative terms and positive/neutral (business, American) ones and here’s the split I counted:

True Lies 2, Harry and Al protect America from the greatest scammer they’ve encountered since this guy...

I’m 100% positive it’s because they knew he was sniffing up the right tree with regards to Russia. Comey is just such a doofus he gave them a good excuse to fire him at around the same time. On the one hand I’m kind of glad he’s gone because his conduct during the election was unprecedented and inexcusable but on the…

At least throw in an IMHO or “from my perspective” when you write this drivel so folks don’t take it as fact.

You already pretty much nailed it, resource grab is the motivation for Russia. Also polar transit routes are going to become much much more heavily used as we lose sea ice in the coming decades. Think what China is doing in the SCS, Russia is sort of trying to do the same thing for the Arctic.

I hear he may get paroled here soon, he’s gonna need a job.

I think the spirit of the game is that we get to drink. Though he sounds like he could use one too.

My main point is that many people cannot live close to their jobs due to housing costs. Just because it worked for you at the time doesn’t mean it’s an option for everyone today.

I read this type of comment every time there is an economic inequality article and this is such a snooty entitled opinion. Many people in poverty do not have the luxury of choosing where to live, they live where they can afford to live and they don’t have the means to just pick up and go where they are within walking…

As someone who was very reluctantly forced to move there for a period of one year the nicest thing I can say about Kansas is that it doesn’t suck as bad as you probably think it does.

There may or may not be a crappy old camera phone video of me very very drunkenly dancing my manly ass off with my old college roommates to that song kicking around on the interwebs. I did not look nearly as good as young Tom does here though. This is a good end of business day article, this is great!

Even if you don’t buy into the gayness it’s still a classic film. Everybody should watch Top Gun at least once, I love that movie.

Drink!

She bitch-slapped him TWICE! Go Sally!

FA is about military and defense topics, whether or not Russia is planting operatives in our government is certainly salient to that topic. This is a perfectly appropriate article for here.

That was great, she flipped Cruz’s shit right back in his face both times there. Love you Sally, this woman is a goddamn hero indeed.
