Hell with that. Send in an AC-130J; a few 105mm howitzer rounds with a nice sprinkling of 30mm cannon fire should get the message through.

Summary: Starting immediately after launch, the capsule will be slowly partially depressurized while increasing the oxygen concentration, keeping a breathable atmosphere. Once it’s at 100% oxygen and 5psi (I’m guessing the pressure but that’s standard for 100% O2), they’ll get suited up and then fully vent to space,…

It seems like with some effort and a sufficiently accommodating state, you can make this thing street-legal. Still totally impractical, but you COULD make a small grocery run…

It was a camera ticket. Having gotten a couple of those in my day, they don’t show the driver well enough to determine race (if at all, more often than not it’s a snap of the backside of the car) so this absolutely tracks.

The Castle Bravo H-bomb test killed one person.

Is Recaro really the preferred brand for racers? I recall Bradley saying that OMP is generally the main choice since they make the whole seat/harness/HANS combo, Sparco is also a pretty popular brand…and then there’s Schroth who makes both the harnesses for F1, and the carefully vacuum-molded seats. If I were…

I will say this much: I’m sure most of us have seen those funny “I slipped and fell on that VeggieTales Larry the Cucumber toy, and it somehow just went up my butt!” X-rays…

…the head of one of her femurs was in that same general vicinity. The other one was by her kidneys, I think.

For me, it was Nick Ienatsch’s must-have books Sport Riding Techniques and Total Control, plus a couple of summers in north-central Maine where the roads are winding and traffic free. Me in my full race suit on my little tweaked SV650 learned a LOT back then.

There’s an X-ray out there of a young woman’s pelvic region after having the airbag go off while sitting with her feet up. I won’t link it here, it’s not something one should be involuntarily subjected to…

I don’t think there is a settled spelling yet, I’ve seen bougie, boojee, bougey, bougye, and a few other variations. I go with bougie myself since it’s closest to the root, “bourgeoise”…

1kg is supposedly worth about 0.1s/lap. He ran 34 laps on the hards, so he could have theoretically gained 3.4s…that said, assuming the weight loss is innocent and only from the tyres (which makes sense, given that every car hits the weighbridge on the way out you’d be insane to deliberately run underweight) he…

As a guy who did literal front-line cancer research in a past life, as in developing novel chemicals at a National Lab (and more recently whose wife battled and beat Stage III cervical)…no.

To expand: absofuckinglutely not. That kind of a change takes months. She clearly wasn’t getting regular checks, I suspect the…

The problem is people calling it “first class” when that’s gotten so over-the-top ridiculous, like you say Emirates private suites with showers and shit…it’s much more like modern business class, laydown seat with some half-walls to isolate and lots of nice amenities…and still cheaper than most legacy carrier business…

“Mint”, as they call it, is actually pretty good; it’s not really modern First Class (that’s gotten a little ridiculous, sleeper rooms with ensuite showers and shit) but it is full-on business class: a mini suite with laydown bed, huge TV, bougie-ass accessories, food from some really good NYC restaurants, plenty of…

They have $67,000,000,000 cash on hand – actual real money, not “market cap” or some other vaporware. They could just straight up…buy F1 lol

I learned that the hard way, I was whipping out across three lanes of oncoming traffic so I told the wife “Hold on tight, here we go!” as I punched it…apparently the yelling plus the forward/lateral acceleration got Google all upset and next thing I know the music cuts out and there’s a 911 dispatcher asking me what’s…

Except the sub wasn’t a flat sheet. It was a circle, so any orthogonal load (90 degrees on the outside, like water pressure) would ultimately be transferred to compression, pressing the fibers “endwise” – it’s the very basic principle of an arch; a circular pressure vessel fundamentally is just two arches placed…

If you’re a Congresscritter who flies in and out on the regular…yeah, an airport that’s (theoretically) a 15 minute drive from the Hill, with a private parking lot, is a damn good idea.

You can be refused entry to Capitol or White House tours for refusing the security screening. It’s not as if you have a right to public transit, any more than to see the Rotunda.

I can’t imagine they’d be searching at Grand Central Station, Post Offices don’t usually have that level of security.
