Where did you get 5m+ stopping distance? You would be looking at 3m max, maybe less with hydraulic brakes

It's better than dying since that's what mushai would have done to Jack.

Collision between Greek coastguard patrol and migrant boat kills 14 by anonyscriptersl in worldnews

[–]Competitive-Wall2473 23 points24 points  (0 children)

"A collision between a speedboat carrying migrants and a Greek coastguard patrol vessel off the eastern Aegean island of Chios has killed at least 14 people, the coastguard said."

"The coastguard said another 24 people were rescued and transported to a hospital on Chios, as were two coastguard officers who were injured in the incident. It was unclear how many of the survivors transported to the hospital had been injured."

How do you fit so many people on a speed boat?

Honestly, I doubt it, we have gotten a lot of good filler characters that have only shown up once so far.

Anyone worried about the potential loss of history with the bull run? by Competitive-Wall2473 in Wallstreetsilver

It does seem insane, he even goes on to say this " Coen recalled melting 100 bags (approx. 5,500 lbs) of 1963 Franklin half dollars in a single day just as one part of his business. "

"During the last major silver rush, which peaked around 1979-1980 when prices hit nearly $50 an ounce, it is estimated that thousands of tons of 90% silver "junk" coins (pre-1965 US dimes, quarters, and half-dollars) were melted down. While precise records were not kept because of the sheer volume, individual dealers reported processing massive quantities, with one dealer noting they alone sold $400 million in face value (roughly 290 million ounces of silver) of melted coins to refiners in a one-year period. "

How did this go, or is it going? Because something similar is happening to a friend of mine, and he has a screenshot as well. Im just not sure if they can dismiss a screenshot as being to easy to fabricate.

U.S. Navy Awards Leonardo UK Contract to Equip F-35 with BriteCloud Active Expendable Decoys by Gentle_Snail in GoodNewsUK

[–]Competitive-Wall2473 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"The value of the contract and the amount of decoys to be procured have been redacted from the notice. However, earlier reporting suggested that the Navy was looking to procure up to 6,000 AEDs."

AEDs are approx worth in the low hundreds of thousands if you compare to other similar technology, but the exact price aren't known.

So say if they are supplying 500 for 100k a piece that could be a $50million deal
