“the sudden announcement of Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun’s resignation by the end of 2024 was interpreted as a response to the company’s persistent safety issues.”
I hope Boeing has serious bonus claw-backs in their contracts, because this idiot’s “cost-savings” have actually cost Boeing a fortune, and destroyed their reputation. The entire board should go.
You have it the wrong way round; humans invented god.
And I though Peter Cushing’s appearance in Rogue One was a bit uncanny valley…

At 116F you would require firm, continuous contact for more than 20 minutes to produce a 2nd degree burn, and over 45 minutes to produce a 3rd degree burn.
What did they think Unity’s investors plans were, to endlessly subsidise a constantly loss-making platform just for the fun of it?
Unity have lost huge amounts of money, in fact never made a profit for a single quarter, while establishing more and more market share, and their customers never asked themselves how or why?
If your vendor is constantly making huge losses while establishing more and more market share, your guy in charge of the financial decisions should be asking themselves what the investors long term plans are. That’s not rocket science.
Not pro-corporate in any way, I don’t see how you could possibly read that into what I posted. But if you choose to sup with the devil, best use a long spoon.
Unity have already established market dominance, if not effective monopoly, as the mobile gaming development platform. They are in a position of power, they have invested large sums of money to get there, and there is really very little game developers with a product 1 or 2 years in development can do about it.
While this is going to be difficult for Indy developers, they really only have themselves to blame. Part of the task when you are making a major software platform decision as a company is to research your vendor’s financial strategy - that’s basic due diligence. Unity has been loss making for years, which either means they are not financially viable (and not a safe bet), or they are engaging in a strategy of establishing an effective monopoly position to later squeeze dependant customers until the pips squeak.
This is likely just the start, whether it’s through runtime charges, Unity control of in-game advertising, or huge hikes in seat license fees. Possibly all three.
Coming from the UK generation that grew up during the decimalisation process, and therefore being equally comfortable with both systems, imperial measures are far less intuitive than metric. Don’t mistake simply being being used to something as it being intuitive.
We use a base 10 numeric system because that’s how many fingers & thumbs we have. Having a system of weights and measures based on that decimal system, is far more intuitive than a system that scales up through orders of distance using different scaling factors at ever order, is so unintuitive as to be absurd.
Both measures were according to the mothers’ self-reports.
In other words, this study has no real scientific value.
But there are many more problems with this “study” than just that.
Not everyone be any means, but if you admire narcissistic extroverts then sure, you’re always going to be disappointed.
Social media influencers are money-grubbing low-lives who will promote anything for some cash? Well colour me surprised.
Just FYI, there are some really wild drugs available in the Peruvian jungle.
With that write-up, I’m disappointed that there isn’t even one Delorean.
Mind you, parking at 88 mph might explain why the 1st car is waaayy off-centre.
The reason that superconductors levitate it that they are perfectly diamagnetic. There are other materials that are strongly diamagnetic, such as bismuth , that can be made to levitate but normally the effect is not stable enough without additional components, such as being sandwiched between two powerful magnets. However Pyrolytic carbon will levitate , at room temperature, above a strong enough magnet in the same way as a superconductor would.
What could possibility go wrong with using a low compression strength material in a high pressure environment?
Is this some kind of insanity plea to get him off the hook for any negligence claims?
The knee needs a complete remodel as well. The whole thing reeks of reappropriating an old 4-leg design for a 2- leg model, and that’s just never going to work well.
Probably used ChatGPT….
