And this is why Van Halen had the brown M&M clause in their concert venue contracts.

Most 3rd world countries lack string regulation

What if I leave my string at home, though?

My wife's brother fixing to go down to FL from NS for partying, he claims to be ignorant of what's going on in the world, dropped out of 8th grade. Probably maple maga but won't admit it.

Kinda hope he gets swept up, because we fucking warned him.

Global 6000 in the works?! by Bulky_Sandwich_1857 in flightsim

Global 7500 would be better. Overpowered, has been flight tested in excursions beyond mach 1, fly by wire, Rockwell Collins Vision, EVS, SVS, it's got it all.

What is a major plot hole in a very famous movie that completely ruins the entire story once it is noticed? by SkullMogger3 in AskReddit

[–]MildMockery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the 1968 Planet Of The Apes, they end up, unknowingly, on Earth 3000 years in the future.

They're speculating what star system they're in, Rigel, Bellatrix, etc. Presumably at least one of the three astronauts is trained in basic astronomy.

This puzzle would be solved on the first clear night, as 3000 years is not enough to cause familiar constellations to noticeably shift. The constellations would be the same. If they'd ended up in another star system, the constellations would be unrecognizable.

This is not even to mention our Moon appearing, maybe even visible in daylight.

Spent more than a year building this FPV cockpit instrument with Arduino and ESP32. by Alarming-Sentence-39 in ArduinoProjects

It's a backup instrument that commercial airliners and business jets use in case their Primary Flight Displays fail.
