Also, what's the deal with your gimmick? Why do you need to include a fact with every picture? Just start another thread for it if you like random trivia that much.

Homeboy must work in a radar/EMI rich environment.

Seriously though I worked in an EMI-heavy shop of 65 dudes and 3 women, and of the babies born to the folks in our shop, ~97% were girls.

RP1 was way too heavy handed with the nostalgia and his fawning over some girl all the time was cringe worthy. If you want to read a book about a dystopian future where people live in virtual worlds via VR headsets I recommend The Peripheral by William Gibson. That was a very good book that owned on many levels.

Seconded. Book is quite good, and definitely the direction I could see the American South going in a few decades.

Don't big-rear end planes have to be going a certain speed for lift to overcome their massive weight? Like, if you slow down, you are a brick.

The words you are looking for are "stall speed".

Helos and autorotation are a thing, but you are not going to move forward much at all, you are just going to go into the ground at a slower speed than if you just dropped.

With fixed wing aircraft, you have what's called the glide ratio, which is a number of feet the aircraft can move forward before dropping a foot in altitude (while at it's optimal glide speed). If you can maintain your optimal glide speed, you may be able to do things like fly 45 miles and save the lives of yourself, your crew, and your 69 (nice) passengers ooooor, you could flameout both your engines due to unforseen icing, and dead-stick your way all the way to NOLA from way out over the Atlantic, all at 29 years of age and posessing only one eye.

If you're an Alaskan bush pilot playing low-stall-speed games, I'm probably the one fixing the aircraft that come save your stupid rear end when you hit a microburst 50' off the ground and endo your stupid Super Cub into a remote river bank some where.

loving hotdogging bush pilots are the worst, but you never see the videos of them getting their poo poo wrecked on youtube. They keep me employed I guess.

Some anime tropes are bad and potentially unique to the style, but anime itself is too broad to dismiss the whole thing.

Ranma's a pretty silly show filled with sitcom premises, ridiculous fight scenes, and cheezy plotlines about unrequited love leading to ridiculous fight scenes. It's like if Family Matters was a cartoon.

And following in the footsteps of American shows, it got cancelled right as it was getting real good.

e: poo poo, funny pictures thread. Um.




Yeah, but the extended universe stuff is pretty wild.

Like Limbo. If Original Sin exists then even newborn babies are sinners. And if all sinners go to hell, then newborn babies that die go to hell. Maybe stillbirths and miscarriages, if they have souls (some think you don't get a soul until your first breath). Catholics have baptism take place shortly after birth which is supposed to be some sort of patch that keeps tiny children saved but not saved saved until they reach the age of understanding and can get for real saved. But still, some babies die before that happens. Which would leave tiny infants in eternal conscious torment for the Original Sins they inherited . . . which is an uncomfortable theological position. But obviously they can't go to heaven either. So a long while back the catholics invented Limbo, a place where unbaptised babies could go for an eternity of bliss and isolation. Then a few years back the pope said Limbo probably doesn't exist, we don't know what happens to the babies but we hope for mercy.

2000 years of people going "but what about?" and then trying to fill in the blanks with whatever sounds close enough.

In the ream of grognarding the system, the Catholic church has nothing on Orthodox Judaism
