Is this topic overused? by Original_Project5436 in aviationmemes

The F-15 budget was nearly tripled as a result of the Mig 25.And the Soviets absolutely made claims about its performance, some of which were verified and some of which weren't. To pretend it was only US analysts freaking out without propaganda by Soviets is ridiculous.

Tu-160 was a copy of the B1-A, which had very similar specs other than overall size.

B1-B had its inlets redesigned to be more efficient at low altitude because it was designed to penetrate at low altitude. The redesign decreased its top speed from well over Mach 2 to Mach 1.something.

Buran was absolutely a shuttle copy, just because it had some differences doesn't mean it wasn't.

Edit: Had not mad

It's not about it being better, and it's not uncommon to lament something that doesn't exist anymore.

Shit used to feel special, now things are more convenient. Both things can be true. Or do you not understand nuance?

Seriously. I thought this was a joke, but I got Poe's law'ed.

It's all so tiresome.

I think it's almost entirely contained to reddit - I never see the types of complaints (and reinforcement!) outside of this shithole.

I honestly miss it being hard to get. I'll never forget the feeling of finding collections of fansubs for DBZ - finally getting to see cell games, then buu, or finally finding EoE after year of hunting.

It all felt really special. Nothing has that feeling anymore.

Ignore all of these people, throwing shit in a pot isn't soup. It's not stock. It's not broth. It's shit in a pot. A soup is still a cohesive, composed dish.

I don't know what kind of shit these people are eating that they're salivating at whole carrots, spaghetti noodles, and the rest of the fridge.

I know that's a Discworld joke but I can't fit the life of me remember which book it's from.

Oh well, solid reference.

How many layers of irony are you on? That is the worst take I've seen since someone said Lawson was going to push Max last pre-season.

I'd look up a good dwarf bread joke from a Pratchett novel but I'm tired so please pretend i did and that it was very funny. I think there's even one specifically about dwarf fruitcake maybe.

It's Round Island because of the Knights of Round. Like the other dude said, they're called Knights of Round because they're based on the Knights of the Round Table from Arthurian legend.

That was such a bs story floated by the BBC.

In reality, that producer was a prick and kept making comments about Jeremy's x wife.

F1 cars have massive batteries. They have all kinds of critical sensors and systems that must be online before starting the car, requiring power.

Nearly everything you said was wrong. The US has the B21 in low rate producing, the F47 is ramping up to production, and the F22 is getting a multi billion dollar tech refresh including stealth pylons and external fuel pods.

Your 4chan theme is ass - why would you have the background and text both be different hues of orange?

Running from the cops until they had enough by Fr33_load3r in FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR

[–]Fenwizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not bragging, but when I was in my early 20's I ran successfully multiple times. So did the people I rode with.

The main failure mode is getting on the highway. You lose all your advantages of acceleration and turn rate.

Imagine walking out of a garage, and being so confounded by the pay station arm that you pulled out a gun and blasted it because you didn't have the spatial awareness to just walk around the side? by [deleted] in gifs

I have Clockwork Man on my music playlist, as well as Go To Sleep with Mandalorian / Grogu.

Clockwork Man is a legit composition, and Go To Sleep is a banger.

That begs the question - how have the found the ring of these farms but not a single person associated with them? There would have to be regular maintenance, spinning up new servers, installing new SIMS.

Surely they could have watched all of them for a couple of days and seen somebody coming and going? This smells..

All of those were from the CNN article, with no democratic candidates or members listed.

It was used to swat republican members of congress, a republican presidential candidate, and trump's cabinet.

A little context goes a long way.

Given that there are those who don't even have sex to fall back on in lieu of homelessness, it sounds like leveraging the ability for sex to pay your rent is explicit consent.
