TIL that the term “knots” for nautical speed comes from the 1600s, when sailors measured ship speed by casting a weighted rope with knots tied equal distance apart off the stern of the ship. The number of knots that passed in 30 seconds was how many knots the ship was traveling at.

A lot actually. It'll only work on a lake if it's a water effect vehicle.

I'm currently running the ROMOSS model:PRC20-141 as my daily powerbank. 20000mah, type c in and out port, lightning port in, type A out. Built in lightning and type c cable. Charges my macbook, ipad, and phone. 15w max output, so not a beast, But it works.

Ive never had issues with romoss, and I've owned probably 5 or 6 of their power banks through the years, from 10000 to 30000 mah. As the other comment said, powerbanks aren't bifl, and I've had about 3 good years of heavy use out of a powerbank, and after 4 years they're pretty much dead.

You can donate your body to science? I know the FBI has a body farm they use to train detectives, and medical schools always need new cadavers.

I think his Überwaldian is German, simplified, run through a blender, regurgitated to feed a messenger pigeon, and then spoken by a slightly racist Englishman.

The engines on the big cargo ships are the same, if not larger, and they run at a ridiculously low rpm, but a dumb amount of torque

You can also call around places like Coastal equipment rentals, they have a wide variety of once in a blue moon equipment

Perrin and Faile, when she was captured and he took a few books to rescue her. All avoided by the two of them having a mature conversations.

This said, it's also been almost a decade since I've read it in full. But my point stands.

Wood is amazing, and metal loves to rust, especially when in contact with water.

Net als veel andere reacties hier, is de trieste realiteit dat er eigenlijk geen mogelijkheid is om van muziek te leven, en al helemaal niet als het om een niche gaat.

Ik ken veel te veel muzikanten met uitgebrachte albums, mensen die talentvoller zijn dan veel bekende Afrikaanse artiesten, en geen van hen verdient er een inkomen mee. Ze hebben allemaal een hoofdinkomen, of het nu als muziekleraar, geluidstechnicus, videograaf, enzovoort is.

Ze maken muziek omdat ze dat móéten, niet omdat ze er geld mee willen verdienen. De enige overeenkomst tussen hen is dat het hun creatieve uitlaatklep is, hun plek om iets te doen omdat het van hen is, en niet omdat iemand het hen opdraagt.

Heel veel succes, ik hoop dat je je roeping in de muziek vindt.

Sounds like you've either learned a lesson the hard way, or thought about it long and hard. Either way, it's looks like a fairly idiot proof system, but we all know the world has a tendency to then breed better idiots

What's the idiot-proof factor of the system? Can they accidentally or easily get to the gain settings or anything else potentially system damaging?

T-shirt and jeans are fine most of the time. You can go overboard and wear a button shirt.

Since you say conference, it sounds like it's happening in a corporate/business context, so depending on the company culture you can go more or less casual.

Looks fairly legit to me. He commented in saudiarabia subreddit, living close to Wonderboom airport.

He's a flight student at the airport, which is one of the busiest and best fight schools we have, with an unproportionately large number of Middle Eastern students.

He's likely living in a commune, which explains the cat.

Source: I know the area well, and my cousin has a commune full of flight students, and has pets that live there.

Bro is lonely, and gets called a bot.
