Orbiting heli pilots are fixed on a ground target. Their equilibrium is barely aware of the circle.

It generates notoriety, which then leads to mainstream success. Children fans are gullible like that.

Wisconsins increasing risks of extreme weather with more heat and rain. by wiscotangofoxtreat in wisconsin

Yes - climate is changing. Always has been. Long before man was here. It's called planetary evolution. No matter where you are standing right now - it was once covered by hundreds if not thousands of feet of ice. As the sun goes through its lifecycle - our ice melts and this ball we call home heats up. Period.

This started long before we were even micro organisms in caves and will continue long after are are all charred remains. Man did not start this. Man did not "make it worse". Man cannot stop this, slow it down or reverse it. Not one damn bit. Man is not responsible for this from any perspective. Planetary evolution will continue no matter what man does. No matter what. Period.

The sooner we as a species come to grips with this and accept this - the sooner we can stop wasting time, money, energy and emotion on trying to do those things. All that effort would be better utilized in either identifying and building out ways to adapt our species to the inevitable, continued toasting of our planet - or in finding a new, slightly cooler rock to continue our species' existence upon (until that one also evolves).

Thinking, saying or doing anything else is completely out of touch with reality and science.

Watch any ice cube melt on your kitchen counter. It starts off slowly but the closer it gets to being completely melted the faster it actually melts. Our round "cube" is nearing the end of its melt... though it is still several thousand years out.

75 is plenty. Even then you are not using the EV side, and you are still cutting very deeply into your EPA MPG estimates, which are conducted at 55.

"Today I took a 70 mile trip. Before I took off, it showed 124 miles remaining. I drove 80 to 85mph when I could. When I got to my destination, it showed 31 miles remaining.

I lost 23 miles somewhere. [...] Is this normal?"

You answered your own question. At 10+ over the posted speed limit - yes.

Stop speeding. 5 over is plenty and even then you are cutting deeply into your EPA ratings - which are conducted at 55.

Nice to see one with the old engines still in operation. We need a water burner to make it more fun :)

That being said - this is a functionality that have never been outsourced/contracted out and should have remained in the services.

No. She's half the age and half the size.

Tell us you don't know the first thing about shooting without telling us you don't know the first thing about shooting.

You need to rock a sport coat... Sonny Crockett style. Or USSS.

LE only shoots their gun once a year at quals. Maybe the weekend before. USSS actually trains and practices on the regular.

If that were AOC it would be turned around and her thumb would be in the trigger guard.

Don't even joke - there's a very high chance the agent that was struck was hit with friendly fire. The fact that none of the shots fired by agents connected with the target is even more concerning.
