My hands, from working with NF/USP Isopropyl alcohol tend to disagree. It desiccates, defats, and generally kills everything in sight.

> 1000 feet off the ground is quite a big margin of error actually. Actually, no. It can't maneuver fast enough, it can't gain altitude fast enough. A downdraft or a squall and it's going into a hill or a tree from 1000ft

If you fly low how do you deice the thing while avoiding terrain? Most of the crashes were due to flying into the terrain in adverse weather conditions after all.

Back when the Apache was beaten there was no commercial licensing in Nginx. Also the Apache that was beaten was Apache 1, which was fork-only, and that was the whole reason Nginx was written in the first place. Then Apache did Apache2 with

I'd guess it's power FETs that fail. You'd have to design a shield of sorts, manufacture it, and still bury it in a compound with the pi, since high-temp high-humidity environment will kill them in weeks. Of course, being bur

If they did put a decent encoder behind the knob that wouldn't be a problem. But hey, decent encoders cost.

Industry funded TR-069. It is a lovecraftian nightmare, not even open-source efforts could salvage anything useful. Another industry funded FIX. It is just a bit less of the same.

The thing is, guys who actually knew what's a runaway stabilizer condition feels like managed to cope. It's the ones who didn't didn't. Somehow I think this is actually related to the hours flown. Not entirely, but shoul

Eh. I'm talking about primary smelters, the ones that take bauxite as input. You just can't. It'll ruin the chemical composition, the electolysers, you'll have to throw out (somehow, very expensive in itself) a lot of fl

The issue is keeping crews from forgetting how to fly the aircraft. Or do you want another round of 737MAX because noone actually flown a plane in 6 months, since it was considered somehow better for enviroment?

Like how you are going to maintain your 737 or 320 rating flying a Cessna? Besides, I suppose keeping a plane in storage and serviced while keeping your workforce certified and ready isn't that much cheaper than keeping all them somew

Maybe mostly because you did not articulate any link between long-term effects and vaccination. I do not think this was researched at all.

if you delve deep enough into mathematical statistics, as in the theory and methods, you will realise that your statement does not mean that there would have been more deaths without any vaccine. It's that sort of 7th Seal [0] funny. A

No you're right. Stainless steel is insane, in those conditions it will corrode in several decades, if not faster. Foundation is just laughable, it won't last 200 years, much less 1000. Like you say, a structured pile of rocks wit

That is interesting. As you must know, steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, the carbon in question coming from, you know, coal. So how exactly it can be "fossil-free"?

It's like, surely you can "scale down" an electric smelter. Only that would mean almost rebuilding the furnaces afterwards. And it's sort of "simple" for the iron smelters. Try to shut down an aluminium smelter
