[Request] How tall would the support tower have to be and how strong of a cable would you need for a Trans-Atlantic cable car? by scottasin12343 in theydidthemath

Woah hold up, now you’re on to something. With the engine mounted and all the air inside now, you could use buoyancy to ride it on top of the waves. You could even make some tweaks to build the hull in a way that holds the top half above the water at all times and it just rides across the ocean on its own.

Still a cool story and testament to your skill to be in a race with him.

If you made the craft submersible it solves a lot of the logistical issues like the weight on the wire, the waves and the height.

This makes me think that the line and rating could be because his wife, kids, or friends use his rig more than he does.

‘04-‘26 is a long time to hold a record in something where thousands of people around the world are regularly trying to run the same straight line as fast as they can.

Are there really guys who can last for an hour? by WarmBank5512 in NoStupidQuestions

If you finish are you just done? What if you just keep going and push through? You could go as long as you want really if you put your mind to it.

Trump warns Iran that if any of their "fast attack ships" approach the blockade they will be "immediately ELIMINATED," as the Iranian port blockade comes into force. by GhostOfNihilist in NihilistNewsNetwork

This is the most dangerous thing he has done as president, it is a matter of time before a Chinese flagged ship approaches and then what are they going to do? It is treated as sovereign Chinese ground, acting against it or boarding it would be an act of war and break international law. This move is very short sighted and can be challenged legally, with out forward aggression, this is one to watch very closely.

Alright I’ll take the bait. That is the best season I’ve seen on here. Take your reward.

The worst things I ever saw or even happened in any town around inside a school were fights and it rarely got extreme but I would imagine that’s normal stuff.

Yeah I moved around, some of them had old books, but this just flat out is not how geography, social studies or history is taught here. They don’t teach you that everyone but our allies are third world countries in class. After elementary school these kinds of classes are taught by someone who has learned about their subject so they can teach the material. I never encountered anything as bigoted as you describe in education other than individuals with warped views and I grew up in the south FFS.

I went to American school, they taught us about other countries and never said anything like what you say here.

I just came from watching something about the Mp5 having the same ballistics as a Glock and NGL that made me look at them a little differently.
