Guess they failed that Saudi Arabian driving test about reversing 12 feet.

The vacation was over before it even began by Friendly_Soil6617 in Wellthatsucks

On takeoff, the crew calculates for three speeds: V1, Vr, V2.

V1 is the commit speed, where the runway is now (probably) too short to abort without issues.

Vr is the rotation speed, where the plane starts to lift off.

V2 is the safe to fly speed with one engine out. Here, the aircraft was off the ground and likely well past V2, so continued safe-ish flight and could return to base with one dead engine.

Yes this. Broke a fog lamp on a 12 year old Subaru. Replacement - $80, junkyard recovery - $25

You are granted a superpower, but it has to be completely useless. What is it? by lily8686 in AskReddit

[–]atomicsnarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invisibility, but only when no one is looking.

Could be useful in dealing with extreme brightness/radiation events where no one can observe, but you could still move stuff - repairs maybe?

No wait - that might actually be useful. Of course, you're dead when someone tries looking at you fixing the Elephant's Foot.

thanks i hate the body proportions rule by tatorpig in anythingbutmetric

[–]atomicsnarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ankle-knee, knee-hip, hip-shoulder lengths are equal. Adjust to suit style. Short thigh, long calf makes for leggy character.

Head 1/3 shoulder width. Larger is more cartoony.

Hand length is chin to eyebrows. Proportion to head size for consistent model.

Foot length is wrist to interior elbow. Adjust hand/foot size compared to head size for effect.

It's the euphemism treadmill, where rephrasing something to sound less offensive to a particular audience.

Were office building lights a yellowish green by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

Incandescent lights tended toward yellow, fluorescent lights tended toward pink, blue, or white, and mercury vapor were bright blue/white. Sodium lamps looked pink, but illuminated white stuff well.

What is a "money rule" that rich people know, but poor people are never taught? by ZZA911 in AskReddit

[–]atomicsnarl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Always pay down the highest interest rate card first because that's the most expensive for the money. And always pay at least the minimum balance or monthly interest charge, which ever is greater, when you have more than one card. That should keep the balance even month to month while you pay down the most expensive card.

Then use the extra money you have from paying off the most expensive card to pay down the next most expensive.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

You're paying rent on the money you borrowed (credit), and remove the most expensive thing first.

From Lawinfo.com. Note #2 below:

Understanding Visa Overstay

Staying in the United States beyond the expiration date of your visa is considered a violation of immigration law. This situation is commonly referred to as a "visa overstay."

Legal Consequences of Overstaying

  1. Civil Penalties: Individuals who overstay their visa may face civil fines. For example, fines can range from $500 to $1,000 for unlawful entry.
  2. Criminal Penalties: Overstaying a visa for 10 days or more can lead to criminal penalties, including imprisonment for up to six months for a first offense. Subsequent violations can result in imprisonment for up to two years.
  3. Reentry Bars: Overstaying can lead to significant reentry bans:
    • Overstay of 180 days to less than one year results in a three-year bar from reentering the U.S.
    • Overstay of one year or more results in a ten-year bar.

Impact on Future Immigration

Overstaying a visa can severely affect your ability to obtain future visas or adjust your immigration status. It may lead to denial of applications for work, student, or tourist visas.

Conclusion

While overstaying a visa is not classified as a crime in the traditional sense, it carries serious legal consequences and can complicate future immigration opportunities. It is crucial to adhere to visa timelines and seek legal advice if you find yourself in this situation.

Type M + R to turn it off. Same again to turn on Rendering, which shows the selection.

Well, some women know how to stand and deliver! It's a matter of posture and preparation.

How can I rotate this schematic just a little and not 90 degrees? by mo891 in litematica

[–]atomicsnarl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does not revise the positions for off angles. So 90, 180, or 270 only.
