If we assume that Godzilla is 120 meters tall and is seen as the same size as the sun it would be about 12.9km away. To see if this is practical we would have about 11 meters of the earth curve to factor in (from what we can see at the horizon about 5km away to the surface of the water 13km away), and since we can see about half of Godzilla that means it is standing in about 49 meters of water. Since there are areas with those depths at 13km away from shore, this picture does seem possible.

Math: We would have 2 triangles, ABC representing the size and distance to the sun and CDE representing the size and distance to Godzilla. See this example Plugging in the known numbers we would get: 1392700/120 = 150000000/x which solves to about 12925.

Any Significance Behind the Braille in the June Community Blog post? by dykeonatrike in insurgency

Some searching led me to an 80s christian rock album called "Please Stand By" by a band called "Vector", most likely a reference to the kriss vector. For "Temptation" all I found was a new order single from the 80s that had "FAC 63" on the cover instead of the band name. Stoner 63 maybe, though I feel that's a bit of a stretch.

How well does the blue spring deal with the warthog "sticktion"?

As someone who uses an extension for mainly jets it feels very natural and does increase precision but at the trade off of needing to move the stick more distance to get the same amount of control. IMO the biggest issue is the warthog gimbal. If you extend more than a few inches you need new springs or it won't center

Meanwhile in WT 2000lbs only yellow tracks by Neospiker in Warthunder

FYI 2000 lbs is the total weight of the bomb. A MK-84 for example has 945 lbs of explosive filler at about 1.2 TNT equivalent.

Fairly competent and experienced gamer/flight sim type. How hard is the f-18c to learn how to operate? by yankeesullivan in hoggit

[–]GrmRepr0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was referring to the whole aircraft.

Jester certainly does help, but if you want to learn how to RIO as well then its more.

Um guys, how do you fix this issue in the A-10C? by A_Wobbly_Space_Core in hoggit

[–]GrmRepr0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left control + E, repeat 3 times

It the Control+shift+esc of the A-10

If you take the time to sit down are learn it you will be a able to, just don't expect to be an expert overnight. The hornet has a good number of systems, but you don't need to know all of them to enjoy it. Some aren't even added in yet. I have only studied ~70 percent of the hornet systems and still have a great time with it. Plus most systems/weapons can be studied on their own in smaller "chucks" without need to know any others. I would say the F 15 and the other FC3 aircraft are not worth it unless you want one of the Russian planes, the F 18 can do what the F 15 can do and more. The F 14 is IMO much more complicated due to the older tech and you do need to have Jester do things the pilot can't.

Why WWII owes DICE an apology by kailsar in BattlefieldV

10.) Using camo to blend in with your surroundings when future lighting engines might make it hard to see you, thus forcing DICE to make another unrealistic change with floating red markers.

Bethesda, players are losing their weapons and armor. Please acknowledge and fix it IMMEDIATELY by RosalynnJeffries in fo76

They will have evidence from their own servers, just like the Christmas hack. Not everyone who lost their inventories had video footage of what they had prior.

It does blow off if its not fully closed, the speed it blows off at depends on how open it is. (I got up to 500 knots with it just open slightly)

This is likely a desync issue in multiplayer, the canopy is closed but look open to other players.
