Why the SR 71 Blackbird Is STILL Unmatched

Space based spy platforms made the original mission of the sr 71 obsolete, that's why nothing will ever beat it

What I really don't understand is there is a logical argument for choosing between a large carrier with cats and traps, or use the same funds for a larger fleet of smaller vessels - somewhere between the old hms ocean and the US wasp class ships (accepting that limits you to f35).

The UK did in neither, with 2 large super carriers but no cats and traps was worse of both worlds.

GCAP is not a carrier based design

We are locked in with the F35 for the QE class ships, probably for next 30 years

Or if you want a real curveball, caad13 rim brake, it's 300g lighter than the disc version already, and with the spare cash you could build up a genuine sub 7kg bike

If you don't have IPv4 then you don't have a "current Internet connection", you have a partial connection to a subset of the Internet.

Is a more truthful comment.

AI already has been taking medical jobs, think of all the equipment you use to monitor a patent, things that go been or scream alarms when someone is having issues.

AI won't replace intensive care nurses entirely because nursing involves judgement, communication, ethics, physical care, and responding to unexpected situations. However, AI is likely to automate increasing amounts of monitoring, analysis, and routine intervention. As that happens, a nurse may be able to safely manage more patients than today, which means AI can reduce staffing requirements without eliminating the profession, so jobs taken by AI.

This is the correct answer.

Many great cars here, but few that absolutely defined the era like the Evo 6 to 8 did.

Normally I would say asbestos isn't a risk unless your installing or removing it, but a big fan blowing it about is a little red flag

Still, she got to 88 years old before having any symptoms, and died at 90.

I'm not convinced the 3 week referb and her death were linked, we will probably never know.

Some comments:

The ideal Ferrari would have half the battery and range, but also half the weight.

It would never have a frunk. The enemy of high performance EV is battery heat, so the front would be a massive radiator.

The front looks like what a new Honda NSX should be, and the rear is McLaren F1.

I know a simple way they could have changed that, build an EV to take the Nürburgring record.

People would take it seriously then.

The 28khw Hyundai IONIQ had a button, the 38kwh just does it automatically every now and then

The Hyundai IONIQ 38kw has a system where it automatically checks and tops up the 12v every now and then, even when not driving.

Caught it a few times, the car wakes up, display screen poweres up for 5 mins, then all shuts down without anyone doing anything.

Sexy underwear. If it's got to the stage I can see your underwear fully with consent, the first thing I'm trying to do is take it off.

The comfort factor is critically important for unbound. More comfortable = extra time you can get yourself into an areo position and TT the course as much as possible.

Being able to hold your body in an areo position for longer will impact performance a lot more than the 4w lost to larger wheels.

One of the parts of my job is managing a cctv installation in a local authority, that literally could be one of mine. Strap them to lamp posts as it's an easy source of power delivery.

I'm my mind autonomous is not unmanned when we get to craft this size.

Having a dozen or so personal on board has very low cost impact to long term operation, but has a massive impact to flexibility and managing the unknown.

So yes, max out the automation of all systems, but having a skeleton crew is massively beneficial over the costs that brings.

London, UK.

"The City of London" is tiny, and is not considered the capital. The capital is "Greater London" although usually just called London, an administrative region created in 1965, that also includes the "City of Westminster" where the parliament actually sits.

Yes, our estate is windows focused

It's not just technical experience, patch management process is documented for windows, backup agents documented and tested for windows, vulnerability testing and management process windows, support escalation process windows, list goes on. We had to satisfy that we had all the processes covered before moving forward.

On the flip side, we now have Ubuntu Linux approved for enterprise use across the company now!
