They were occasionally useful as a weird sort of forums immune system like a few months ago when they shined a light on some horrible poo poo that was festering in E/N and the whole thing with aatrek being a chomo but after following the QCS threads yeah it's time to make a change.

I’m working off of prior experience with high-pressure cylinders, I don’t know the actual service pressure of LH2 tanks (or how insanely it could vary based on temp alone).

Shockingly low, the space shuttle external tanks ran around ~34 PSIA. They rely on temperature way more than pressure.

I nerd about a little bit on the Civil War, I was an intern for the NC Underwater Archaeology branch doing remote sensing analysis on the sunken blockade runners that litter the coastline of Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, and Kure Beach. Wilmington, NC was their only destination for about half of the Civil War, and there's estimated ~100 English-built blockade runners sitting underneath the waves there. Word that was 2 successful runs (guns/cannon going in, cotton/tobacco coming out) was enough to pay for the ship used to smuggle the cargo, pay the captain/crew, and have some left over as a nice profit.

Wilmington's weird coastal geography meant that the USN had to dedicate 2 blockading squadrons to the area, but that was hounded by Fort Fisher being the most fortified place on the planet at the time. The attack to take Fort Fisher from the Confederates was the largest amphibious assault until loving D-Day itself. The USN ships usually had to get dead-lucky to intercept a blockade runner before they got under the protection of the Fort Fisher guns, unless you were LT Breck, commanding the USS Niphon. Sherman may have been an underachiever, but Breck was decidedly not. At least 7 blockade runners, 1 confederate artillery battery (what wasn't destroyed was stolen and repurposed), and a confederate salt works all fell before him and his crew, as well as a landing party to gather intel on Wilmington itself prior to the attack on the city.

About 30 years after the civil war ended, Wilmington was the setting of the only successful coup in the US.

Pakistan court sentences Musharraf to death in-absentia

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/12/pakistan-ruler-musharraf-handed-death-penalty-treason-case-191217071817884.html

quote:

Musharraf's actions in 2007 lie at the centre of the treason case against the 76-year-old former ruler.

On November 3, the military ruler imposed a "state of emergency", suspended the constitution and detained senior political leaders and judges.

The crisis was precipitated in March 2007 by Musharraf's attempt to remove then-Supreme Court Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, a move the Supreme Court later deemed illegal.

The attempt prompted widespread protests by lawyers across the country, who were later joined by political parties and other groups

Speaking to Al Jazeera, political analyst Tariq Pirzada said the ruling "sends a signal that Pakistan is changing and its judicial system has changed".

"No one has immunity," he said. "As for the armed forces of Pakistan, he [Musharraf] is one of the most popular guys within their rank and file. They will be hating this verdict."

Musharraf took power in a military coup in 1999, ruling the South Asian country for nine years before being removed when his political party was routed in a general election.
