These are not bloody hyperlapse videos... Jesus....

This has been a thought of mine for some time. With the way in which the NSA et al responds to leaks about "knowing" such and such was going to happen, but not doing anything about it, I get the impression that these systems are simply a sort of early warning system, but not actionable.

No. If the rocket (like that pone ze Russians just make go pooey) is going to veer off course, or otherwise become uncontrollable, blow it up. The thing is, with rockets, something that is not catastrophic can become catastrophic very quickly. Better to have a big boom above a location designed to take hail-sized…

I did it! Did you do it!

+1, Like, High-Five, buy this man a beer. Honestly. Thank you for this post.

There have recently been quite a few re-runs here on Giz. Not sure why...

This feels lazy. How does this post have comments from September of last year?

Google et al. The HUGE one is from forever ago. The newer-standards one is from SE.

No, that would be matched in the second grouping... That is a terrible regex...

I will not claim authorship of those Regexs, I found them elsewhere while trying to validate emails.

So... My only thought: Five lasers powerful enough to cause this phenomenon blast, essentially, DIRECTLY at the receiver... So.... How does that work? Either you vaporize the receiver, or it is mirrored, in which case, how does it receive the signal?

My Tripod account.

Actually, there was this website that gave free hosting with sub-domains, and I had an *.m2.com or *.m3.com account (or *.m8.com, I can't remember, maybe m8?), back in the early early aughts. If anyone can tell me who to bug to get my content back.. $.25 for ye. Promise. Plus a high five if you…

I am thinking: Brillo Pad ~= "Human Burger." Sorry, it's summer and I have burgers on the mind... Had to say it...

Real quick. Let me just say. Fuck that....

Seriously... I mean. Sun can cause some heat... A LOT OF HEAT. But for the media to say that it is because of "geological phenomena" means that the geography had something to do with it. IE: THE GROUND. So... New headline: "The ground got so hot at Yellowstone, it melted the pavement." THAT... That is kind of…

Made. My. Day.

I don't know. I am not an engineer or anything of the like (brogrammer, but not this kind of engineer), but what keeps coming to mind is draft and displacement (likely shallower, but ACs are not close-to-shore vessels). I feel like with less of both, and a lower mass, that a smaller carrier would not have as much…

Thanks for the insight, I was under the impression that they were more versatile than that. I guess that was because I thought the support equipment aboard the aircraft accounted for more space/cost.
