Yeah there is a reason why plane spotters use 400+mm lenses
For the longest time, Reddit allowed some of the most toxic, explicitly hateful, communities out there. It continued to grow very quickly under those circumstances. Furthermore, the more moderate communities continued to exist. It wasn’t until later, when they were trying to monetize, that Reddit started cracking down on the allowed content.
As much as I disagreed with those communities, I think Reddit was a better place when the admin had a looser hand on which communities could it could not exist
Have you never heard of tunes?
Any idiot can make substantial software changes to almost any modern car with easily available inexpensive hardware. Look up Cobb, ECUtek, openflashtablet, Hondata, etc
You literally just plug it into a port and flash the software
And fifth/sixth derivatives are crackle and pop because some physicists thought it would be funny to have it be “snap crackle and pop”
Oldest F-16 I have seen in the air is no more than 50 years old. Oldest biplane I have seen flying was over 100 years old
Ergo, wood and canvas is the superior construction method
I spent most of my 20s doing grassroots campaigning, with a large part of it being protest planning and organization. You generally do not need a permit to conduct protests on public property, even large ones, in the USA.
The exceptions are very specific; i.e. blocking roads may require a permit.
Businesses seeing a drop in revenue as a result of a random patchwork organized online effort for a temporary boycott won't have any effect?
No it won’t. This just means people buy the stuff the another day and is absolutely meaningless to their bottom line

I lived a lot like this during the 2008 recession. I was always looking for work, but there was none to be had. So we spent all day watching arthouse DVDs from the library, having sex, cooking, making art, and talking philosophy in our 250 square foot apartment. At times, it was truly beautiful.
However, there came a time after a year or so where the money really ran out and we got evicted. The relationship imploded and it all went to shit.
My takeaway is that, for long term happiness, stability is important too.
If you wanted it spelled right, you should have talked to an englisher
The natural lifecycle of the Jedi Master is to retire on some remote planet to become a depressed asshole hermit, just as Yoda did before.
To me, The Last Jedi rejects the constant stream of fan service in most new Star Wars films to return to the roots of the series. IMO, it’s by far the best of the sequel movies.
On the ULA engine topic, New Glenn was announced and BE-4 was under development years before they won the contract with ULA
There is a very reasonable explanation for this: If we are a topic of research for them, they could have simply stopped studying us in the same way
Take our own science for example. We pull out of studies when the funding dries up. Maybe the aliens’ government grant ran out. Or, perhaps they have a policy of avoiding interference with the subjects. They could have changed methodology in response to the threat of high resolution recording equipment
