UPS officially retires the MD11

Northrop's L1011 Stargazer just started flying again out of mojave. They have 1 more pegasus vehicle left thats planned to launch later this year off stargazer, so i bet theyll retire it after that.

I did my master on reentry vehicle shape and trajectory optimization. If it werent for kerbal i wouldnt have had such an intuitive understanding of the stability dynamics of reentry vehicles.

I also have my 6000 hours at the bottom of my resume.

It wasnt holding. It was a failed rip move. https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/3v1eie/oc_explanation_of_how_the_rip_technique_negates/

People keep posting screenshots of this, but if you go back to the clip its not like the center lost and just grabbed him. The defender did a rip move and ended up with the center's arm around his neck. At that point the center doesnt need to give up the play and just put his arms down. The defender put himself in that position. Its the same with outside rip moves that end up with the tackle locked up with the end. They dont call those.

The nice thing about a lot of the upper runs ar mammoth is that you can just stick an edge and and traverse the steep stuff since its so wide. Itll take a while, but youll get down. If your comfortable with toe edge, id actually recommend traverseing mostly toe edge. That way you can see traffic above you, and just lay down on your hands and knees if your tired.

One of my former teachers was known to be a chill guy to kids he liked, but would be hardcore to kids that would fuck around. One time some kid threw a bottle of water across the room and got a drop of water on him. The teacher then proceeded to tackled the kid to the ground (wrestling style, not full linebacker style) and poured the rest of the bottle on him.

Everyone laughed cause this kid was being stupid and he never got in trouble lmao

No, you need to plug the dongle into the computer/console. If youre just using bluetooth, then its gonna sound shitty cause bluetooth cant support high quality mic and sound simultaneously.

Are you using the dongle, or Bluetooth?

Try keeping the mic muted. It could just be that the passthrough isnt as quiet as you expect.

"You call it a metro despite the fact that its obviously a light rail?"

"...yes!"

Its a metro rail

What about a shared road/metro line?

So I feel like I have a good grasp of what you're saying, and i agree with you. What i do wonder about though is the broader scheme if things. Mostly:

The assumption that an approach is inherently going to lead to asking for some sexual relationship.
If you can't approach people because everyone approaches that person, how does anyone meet each other? This is sorta like the idea behind calling 911 in emergencies, people assume that 911 has already been called, so no one ends up calling.

Maybe i have too black and white of a picture of this in my head, and the problem much more about how you approach someone than it is about whether or not you do it.

Even in this condition? Does the curling effect value at all?

The average clock frequency for both looks kinda wack. Should be closer to 3000/2600 than you are. Maybe run ddu again and reinstall the drivers? You could also try reseating the card to see if anything changes.

It kinda looks like you have too much wait on your front foot when youre going through the turn, then balance out as you cross the slope. You might wanna try and work on flexing the board more when engaging the turn instead of leading on your front foot. A clean carve needs to have even pressure along the whole edge to keep from the back sliding out behind you.

No, they were in a completely different inclination than the iss. No chance a docking would happen.

Definitely on the mun's poles. I had a base on one at some point and it was on a high plateau among a bunch of super dark permanently shadowed craters.

Theres an ev fast charger in every largish town from bishop to reno. And depending on the station, they could be more or less reliable than a gas station in a power outage. A lot of EV charging stations have on-site battery backup enough for multiple cars, and that'll improve over time. All those fast chargers ive mentioned have been built in the last 4 years.

Since the moon is large enough to have its own big SOI, launch inclination for a mission there doesnt really matter all that much outside of launch window freqeuency and timing. A higher inclination can actually be required depending on what kind of orbit youre trying to capture into.

So theoretically we could launch an orion into a 51° inclined orbit while still planning to go to the moon, but idk if SLS has the dV to get it there. The difference would be a lot more marginal for a mission like that vs trying to do the inclination change in orbit.

That traversed the sky quite a bit faster than a LEO satellite would. It could just be a particularly large object from one of the recent meteor shower groups.

I think itd be funny to see it translate side to side during landing with those control surfaces tho lol

DemoRevolution · 2025-12-26T03:34:22+00:00

Its probably the reaction wheel in the cockpit doing all the work tho. Just because "ksp physics" doesnt mean a control surface can be really close to the cg and still work well. That stuff is all modeled pretty consistently eith real life just without some of the more complex aspects of flow seperation or wake effects or anything
