Like all ambitious space missions in history, it will be delayed, delayed, and delayed again. Sadly that’s how it has always been.
Unless I’m grossly mistaken, Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo were pretty much on schedule. I don’t know about Skylab, if we consider it separate from Apollo. I think things started to become less tight with STS (Shuttle).
If you are american, and haven’t risen up in arms to topple the tyrant (despite that being one of the excuses for the 2nd) you have not earned the right to call Europe/Europeans anything. Let me remind you that in Europe, every so often, a president/premier is toppled by the people, through massive, constant movilization, general strikes, etc. Get your house in order. and then comment on others, if you wish.
Sovol is reasonaby decent
My first girlfriend’s brat sister got grossed out when I told her that eggs were literally shitted out by hens. Beautiful twist. She went on to get a food safety degree.
Only seasoned veterans will get this thread.
I own a couple of inflatables, a tiny foldable, car trunk capable dinghy with an 4 hp motor, and a mid sized trailerable RHIB (rigid hull inflatable boat). The dinghy is named cuinmeri (phonetic spelling of Queen Mary in Spanish) and the RIHB is called patchwork, because of all the patches it had before I retubed it. And yes, I’m a near boomer (early Xer) dad.
Patchwork before retubing:
I have been a Scout in 3 countries, 2 European and the US. This was in the 70s-80s. European and US were quite different, both gender segregated, but still followed basically the same values. Inclusivity was mild but present.
My kids are now staff at a group in Europe. The group is coed, and firmly inclusive. The government has no say, except in training of staff, which is mainly safety, and other practical matters when dealing with kids.
The idea of the government intruding into values (except for exclusive behavior) is so foreign that they would be hit with lawsuits immediately.
I’m running an AM4 Ryzen 9, with 64Gb of DDR4, and the thing cooks. AM4 is just great.
Yeah, Ive been working on engines (mostly my own, for fun) for decades, and I never knew about brake fluid and glass.
Move to Spain and settle in Germany or Finland?
Are you some sort of sadist?
No BTW in that post. I call fake.
There is no way he could put on skates, with these feet.
You know, I’ve never understood why there are no warning labels on the bottles of the stuff.
It is not. It says what I want to do, and where.
I didn’t know that, and I have used liters of the stuff. Learn something every day.
Is it just Dot3? Dot4 is more common these days.
BTW, kids, we are talking about brake fluid, so don’t go spraying it on your camera lenses!
That was my first CD burner. I’ve actually punched cards, programmed on a PDP11 on a tty, loaded programs from a cassette and still have a handful of 8" floppies somewhere, but thank you for the “young one” 😊
I defend that simply doing what is needed to clean up all the shit we have left behind up to now, let alone prevention, energy transition, moving to biodegradable plastics, mass transit, etc, would create immense economic growth. It’s essentially the fossil fuels cartel, and their political minions who keep us here.
Maybe if all of the renewable sector pooled together to lobby as hard as the fossils, there could be advances.
Nowhere did I claim anything democratic (even though I could). I claim that when a head of government really fucks up, Europeans sometimes rise up to the challenge. Brave Americans seem to have lost that capacity since the 1700’s. Also, that which you call servility, can be interpreted as “let the chest pounding gorilla pay for most of the expenses of our protection”. Trump wasn’t all that wrong about having European countries pay a bigger share, although for the US it was cost efficient to foot a larger part of the bill, to keep the first line of defense an ocean away.
But yeah, remove Turd. Then you will have earned the right to talk about others.
