I've been flying a sim of one of those in VR. After numerous attempts, and a fair amount of profane language, I have yet to successfully land it on the carrier. I'm guessing that in reality it is a much more straightforward process

Ah, nice to have lived a stress-free life!

Agreed. You destroy the enemies will to fight.

Insurrection!!!

Lock 'em up

Taxes? Bribes?

A little better video that MFR took. https://www.facebook.com/1025015530/videos/3028392290782196/

@jon-nyc said in 21 weeks: Hasn’t 22 weeks been the record for a long time? I want to say a friend of mine had a 22wk primi survive maybe 35 years ago From deeper in the article: Curtis shaved 24 hours off the previous record, which was held by Wisconsin baby Richard Hutchinson, who was born just a month beforehand at 21 weeks and two days. Before Richard, the record had remained unbroken for 34 years, having previously been held by a baby boy born in Ottawa, Canada, at 21 weeks and five days.

@jon-nyc said in Did you know?: @jolly said in Did you know?: I think it is. Which is why I'm against letting children pick their gender, at last to the point of medical treatment. You want to get whacked, hormoned and dilated after 18, have at it. Exactly. Meh, I go a step further. If you want to get whacked, hormoned, and dilated after 18, go ahead, but you’re still not a woman. You’re a dude that has been whacked, hormoned, and dilated. There are important medical, scientific, and logical purposes for this. Though I will gladly pay you 18% less if you like…

Bad link. Never mind.

Cool! There are many 70 year olds who would have trouble to go 100m in less than a minute.

@copper Thanks!!!

interesting article. Somewhat related, the story mentions the poison gas used. I read somewhere that there were occasion recent findings of pockets of WWI poison gas in low laying areas under bridges, etc in places like Belgium.

Wow!!!!!!

@doctor-phibes said in Good omens for 2022 - and 2024: @jolly said in Good omens for 2022 - and 2024: Alin Invasion. Do you mean Alan Invasion? Somehow I don’t see either North or South Ossetia as a threat to the USA.

BTW, Jay Leno's Garage has been on for several years. There's a ton of episodes on YouTube. Lot's of very interesting vehicles. Anda few things that aren't, like Merlin aircraft engines and walking beam steam engines.

@catseye3 said in Meanwhile, in Green Bay. . .: ut he thought he was. He also believed he had an allergy to one of the vaccine components. And he was concerned about possible fertility effects, and that is very important to him, apparently. I'm pretty concerned about those, too. We wouldn't want the idiot breeding.
