Depends on your friends I guess?

Isn’t there no real evidence such a device exists or could even work theoretically?

I guess this is true of the Orks too.

The Emperor of Mankind preached the Imperial Truth: Atheism, Logic, and Humanity. There are no gods. Which is a lie because gods do exist.
Then he was betrayed, mostly killed, and enshrined on the Golden Throne where 10,000 psychics are sacrificed per day to keep him alive.
And then his empire started preaching the Imperial Creed: That he is the God Emperor. A title he tried desperately to avoid.

Are the Tyranids actually evil? They’re horrific from our point of view but do they even have the concept of evil? They’re just hungry.

But but I’ve put soooo many nice coins into the female machine! When do I get a sex out?
- Comment on Paid for by...boobs? 2 months ago:
That’s the whole conservative narrative: The success of the sex worker, the minority, the queer, is at the expense of the moral white man. All to distract that the actual reason things are worse is because of the rich man.

At my company it depends on expected response time, I think up to your salary for the fastest response tiers. And some roles can exchange for time off.

That would just kill all life I guess?
- Comment on No More Neutral ⚛ 2 months ago:
How so? Adding an extra electron will increase the repulsion between atoms. Of course each atom may quickly shed the electron as a current.

Pretty sure this would cause most matter to come apart.

IIRC: It was a 3D printed intake using those carbon fiber filaments that aren’t really carbon fiber. However the main failure was the assumption that the intake wouldn’t get hot, but it did.

There’s less brake dust as well.

It seems like it had to charge multiple times?
On a single charge, it can travel up to 40 nautical miles at cruising speed.

I thought so too originally but I ended up enjoy the co-op missions for a while. I’ve moved on since then but it’s been worthwhile for me.
Note that you can play those missions solo, but the game difficulty doesn’t adjust based on number is human players so it’s less efficient.

Unfortunately most of the game mechanics occur in multiplayer. There’s no classes or upgrades available in the campaign.
- Comment on If a Space Elevator became a reality, wouldn't the cable act as a kind of wick for all of the unfiltered radiation from outside our atmosphere? 4 months ago:
But there’s really not that much debris. Certain orbits can get packed but there’s plenty of availability. Also stuff in LEO deorbits pretty fast.

It would have to be an experimental aircraft. Someone died recently when they installed a 3D printed intake that melted on their experimental single seater.

lol so they can’t see anything outside the orbit. Just put a camera there.
- Comment on [deleted] 11 months ago:
How would our satellites detect something outside normal orbits?
- Comment on [deleted] 11 months ago:
They could easily send the signals away from us. How would we detect something like that?

I believe most artists will do this for enough money, but I’ve heard from a friend who organizes very expensive weddings, that some of the very top performers will not do private shows even for exorbitant amounts of money.

I know some people upgrading Pixels every year because with trade in and sales they only need to pay like $200. I don’t think Sony will take an existing PS5 though…
