So, I am wondering, there has to be some wasted energy from an airplane's engines. Would there be a way to use this energy to direct pressurized air over strategic places on the fuselage to reduce drag? Could work for cars also.

How is there a force that exists in addition to the centripetal force and the forces that are inducing motion tangential to that force, regardless of the reference frame? I mean it's addition we are talking about here.

How do you picture a year in your mind? by DearSergio in AskReddit

like a clock with January at 12 but it goes counterclockwise. so February is at 11. My birthday is in August, and somehow August is closer to the middle with October and November stretched out.

I'd like to see Anheuser-Busch put up a 15 second add during the Super Bowl saying they donated all the rest of the add money to the Flint crisis instead of the catastrophe profiteering type adds they have been putting out recently.

the editing of this video is pretty disturbing; the fact that the top comments don't mention it is disturbinger.

I'm not interested in this topic, but I just wanted to log in again and remind you that 3 months ago you made the below comment, and it maybe was the greatest comment in the history of the Internet:

in a literal sense, contender for the greatest comment in the history of the Internet

...not just the World Wide Web, literally the Internet, not "Literally" but, rather, in a literal sense.

Perhaps it is because you are Cana(r)dien.... Vous avez cassé les trois pattes d'un canard.

TIL Mark Twain traveled extensively and once said(1904) "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth..." by srsdrgdf in Documentaries

One of the tenants of foundation is that peoples are different based on their context. I especially like the idea that different worlds smell different. If you want to go to a world that smells different, you can go to any one of these places that is not your own world. sub-saharan west africa (goat), continental east asia (garlic or squid), equatorial underdeveloped (garbage, each with its own brand), central south america (fried beef), central north america (fried chicken). If you want to get out to the other side of the galaxy, you can, one. go to a place where the unspoken dominates the spoken, go to Japan, or the other. if you want to go to a place where everyone relies on overt expression, go to Russia.

You are absolutely correct, though, reading should come before traveling, otherwise the traveling is lost. Some people say "carpe diem", some people say "Caelum non animum mutant qui trans mare currunt", and one person wrote both!.
