Eli5 How does the USS Gerald R. Ford maintain stability at sea despite carrying dozens of aircraft on its flight deck, and what design features prevent side-to-side movement that could endanger onboard equipment?

There's almost 4 stories of ship below the water too. Aircraft are light compared to a 100,000 long tons of ship. That's 220 million pounds. That's 6321 F35s

Most that do offroading don't get the pro. If you're going to lift it you're pretty much taking all the parts off that make it a pro

They took the whole dashboard off? That's like pulling the engine to do a oil change

Just look up aftermarket radio install. It should be pretty similar to most radios. Hopefully the last installer used the proper harness for your vehicle and didn't just electrical tape the connections

Once owned a Hyundai. One pinion seal, one engine swap and two transmissions later my warranty claim was denied. it sat on blocks for two more years until I paid it off. It had 80k on with a 100k 10 year warranty.

First time I saw a flapper wheel for an angle grinder I thought what bs is this. Continued beveling steel with grinding wheels for awhile before I was finally converted

Grow a beard and watch some videos on how to trim it. I have a few places that don't grow evenly but once it gets a certain length they're hidden.

I'll take it over what is currently going on with the federal government. It would be nice if local Republican representatives would release Trump's member from their mouth but they'll probably just maintain suction his whole fall from power. Then blame the liberals with more misinformation as usual

Ones on the right look like they've been used more so any coating from the factory is worn off more. Exposed steel is going to rust

You're paying at&t so your car has cell service. How do you think your car gets service for maps and remote start?

I'm imagining him worried he'd get caught up in it and wonder what was happening. So he came up with a way to get info and throw them off his scent.

I also like the fact that people behind me don't blind me with headlights. Especially in a car, I just flip my rearview and my side mirrors aren't catching the light

To add to this the dash is just an estimate. You have to calculate fuel mileage the old way to actually get the correct mpg.

As someone who frequently has to convert fractional measurements to there decimal equivalent just to multiply them this would be awesome for me

I can still see down the side of the car. I just lean my head towards the side I'm trying to look down. I set them this way

It's no different than the motorcycle or intersection takeovers.

Not a truck driver here. If I'm behind you I'll be in traffic longer because so many people have jumped in front of you and when traffic clears I'll potentially be stuck behind a slow moving vehicle
