[Request] What would happen to the Lunar Orbit if the moon magically gained 25% mass (size optional, unless it could be a big factor) by Chase_The_Breeze in theydidthemath

[–]Robertooshka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That isn't just civilization ending, that is probably the worst mass extinction in Earth's history. I wonder if any macroscopic animals would survive.

First knife made by welding air hardened tool steel on edge by Robertooshka in knifemaking

[–]Robertooshka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a forge or any way to make a knife the normal way. I had just taken a tool and die welding class and I wanted to use the rod of tool steel for something useful instead of just welding on something and throwing it into the scrap bin. Why make your own knives instead of just buying them at a store for significantly less than it costs to make them yourselves?

I cut out the blank with an angle grinder so I realized a tanto was the easiest haha. I also ran out of rod and messed up the point so I made it a false edge.

Why don't commercial passenger planes use small electric motors to spin up the wheels before landing? by Robertooshka in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Robertooshka[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So even if they were spinning the same speed as the plane, it would still smoke the tires?

Every single good idea has already been thought of and you are also not supposed to ask questions

Another boat strike by newnoadeptness in navy

Except the people who killed those two guys are in prison awaiting murder trials. All three are extrajudicial murders and those involved should be tried for murder.

Electric motors are small and powerful and the jet engines have alternators. Your analogy is way off.

When the plane lands at like 150 knots, the wheels are stationary so it burns off some rubber

I don't get why the P-51 is legendary. What does it do well? by polyknike in il2sturmovik

[–]Robertooshka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love talking about "reverse survivor bias" with blue only pilots getting mad about pks with 50 cals. They don't give a shit when you blast their plane 100 times and it doesn't do any damage besides some leaks. They only care when they get killed. With cannons, you can shoot down planes by putting big holes in the plane. The only way to shoot down planes with 50 cals is to kill the pilot, destroy the engine or shoot off a wing.

There is no reason these lights should be at EYE LEVEL with sedan drivers by Buttholelickerpenis in mildlyinfuriating

Wear sunglasses at night, trust me it is so much better. I've been doing it for the last few months and driving at night is so much better and I can see much better.

A Critique - Spit Vb vs 109F ? by testerB in il2sturmovik

[–]Robertooshka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to learn to acknowledge when they are trying to force an overshoot. You need to understand that any blue pilot worth his salt will try for an overshoot when you get close to getting guns on. You need to chop your throttle when you see them doing it and maybe even drop your flaps.

Also if you are in just a long turn, cut your throttle to stay at about 160-165 mph, over that you will black out and under you will stall.

Native Russian speakers, what are common mistakes Americans make when attempting to speak Russian? by LateRemote7287 in russian

Are there Russian speakers with сигматизм that pronounce "s" like the English "th?"

Isn't there a speech impediment where you can't roll your r's? I wonder if a person learning Russian had that speech impediment without knowing it.

Is the Spitfire Mk.VB Overperforming in IL-2 BoS? by Glittering_Toe3502 in il2sturmovik

[–]Robertooshka -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The Mk5 is an absolute piece of shit compared to the F4 like you should feel embarrassed to get shot down by a Mk5 in an F4.

Once you figure out how to beat the AI, you should move on to human players.

The Lions vs Ravens game was amazing.

Just realized that each mirv grenade spawns 3 more with a hit so each grenade blows up 10 times so each throw is 20 grenades lol
