“A U.S. Air Force McDonnell Douglas F-4E-41-MC Phantom II (s/n 68-0527) from the 512th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 86th Tactical Fighter Wing, Ramstein Air Base (Germany),…

It actually all has to do with the range. The wings on a B-52 are designed in such a way where they can generate massive amounts of lift at high altitude, giving them huge ranges. However, one of the side effects of this is that the B-52 flies with a nose down attitude. So to land a plane that flies like a clown, they…

It got to the scene of the crash faster than any fighter ever made.

One crashed because of FOD... so it wasn’t even the planes failure - failure to survive the event yes, but the plane was working just fine.

It had one fatal crash in 27 years of operation. I don’t know many commercial jets that can compete with that safety record.

Concord had an excellent safety record, only one of them ever crashed in 27 years of service. The problem was noise and that they too small to be economical as a commercial airliner.

I rarely say this about people. But she deserves all the bad karma that is heading her way right now. That video was so mean and vicious, it actually made me cry. I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. And like so many women with the disease, I struggle with my weight. It’s like I woke up in a different body. I went from…

Most modern high-performance airframes are limited by the squishy bag of meat inside for tricks like this. If the human can survive/stay conscious, the airframe should be fine.

really?

You do know there are power lines everywhere, right? Electricity is everywhere and we’ve been using it for a while. There’s a reason YOU don’t go messing around with the power lines when there’s an outage. Yet contractors still get hurt every year despite being well-trained; it’s a dangerous job. We just don’t hear…

The superchargers aren’t batteries. They’re high voltage/amperage charging stations. Also lock out/tag out for a battery would be isolating caps for the anode and cathode and a tag for them.

Would you let your teenage son or daughter root around inside of a live supercharger? I guess you better not let them use a gas powered car either because they might get killed at the refinery.

Actually no. that design is simpler than an XYZ+angle setup. That kind of design is actually very simple and a lot less prone to damage and wear as everything can be sealed up. plus it takes a lot less space in a garage jammed full of random crap.

I imagine the control mechanism is likely simpler than we’d think. That said, this would consume a much smaller footprint than the Cartesian mechanism needed to accommodate most parking jobs..

We also don’t know the whole story here but it’s not just Dinklage though; they have directors for voice actors and someone signed off on it and said, “yes, we’re going with this.” Actors aren’t just in a room, recorded, then leave without someone (who should have an idea of what the client wants to for final product)…

Bad voice direction. The voice director squeezes the performance they want out of the actor - I suppose they intended to make the voice more computery / autotune so had him read it totally flat. Then they decided not to do that, so you’re left with this mess.

Exactly. This article seems like it’s laying the blame squarely on Mr. Dinklage, when not only did Bungie cut all of his funny lines, but didn’t they even go back and have him re-record a bunch of new dialogue with a purposefully blander delivery? I feel like I read that. Anyway, kotaku editors should not be so quick…
