It's incredible what lengths people will go to experience a short high of moral superiority.

Ah this brings me back to my bachelor course on Quantum Physics. Once you end up with intermediate equations spanning a full sheet of paper you start questioning your life choices.

Ehh, shootings even happen in Europe and coincidences too.

Well, apparently, statistically speaking he is more likely to be human according to the original post. We'll never know.

clamps down on flare use

Ha! As if that is ever going to be successful.

AFAIK most typed languages have this behaviour.

Let's just design every website using a table again. Or even better, frames!

I'm so happy that McLaren is keeping form. In the F1TV commentary they said that they (McLaren) were not expecting much from the Hungaroring, but Norris made it into third with Piastri keeping up in fourth!

Way too often I've had websites complain that the input password is too complex, and I have to dial down the settings.

I'm 100 percent certain that this is a spacecraft or launcher fuel tank. I've worked on reentry analyses of spacecraft fuel tanks before, and I can tell you that these very commonly survive re-entry for several reasons.

Firstly, they are by far the largest components housed inside the vehicle's outer structure. The structure usually takes the brunt of the aerodynamic and thermal forces, protecting the tank from the largest destruction.

Secondly, the tank itself has to handle the huge fuel pressures involved (easily going towards many hundreds of atmosphere pressures!). This obviously means that incredibly tough materials have to be used.

Thirdly and finally, as can be seen in the pictures, their shape is symmetric, making the shape aerodynamically very unstable. This means the fuel tank has the tendency to tumble in the airstream. The tumbling continuously causes different parts of the tank to be exposed to the heat and other parts to cool down.

Fuel tanks are the major risk during reentry to people and other stuff on the ground, perhaps together with the massive engine blocks. To minimise the chances of hitting someone or something, re-entries are nearly always aimed at the Pacific Ocean, hence them being more likely to wash ashore in Australia.

As Flash was known for it having more holes than a Swiss cheese, how is Ruffle in terms of security?

Zijn er hier mensen met een VanMoof? Ik ben wel benieuwd naar wat er nu nog mogelijk is met die fietsen, als in: kan je het überhaupt nog gebruiken?

Het gaat echt alle kanten op in dit dossier.

If I remember correctly, dark roast was also originally devised to hide bad-quality coffee beans. Nowadays it is often implied that darker roasts are better, which actually isn't necessarily the case.

Toch maar weer eens zelf het boodschappenlijstje opstellen dan ;)

Luisteren mensen hier überhaupt nog naar de radio?

Zelf luister ik regelmatig naar KINK dus ik volg dit onderwerp met interesse omdat ik benieuwd ben of zijn een plekje gaan kunnen krijgen.

Hopelijk is er niemand in deze community die hier problemen door heeft gehad!

I'm a big fan of solar panels but the alignment could've been better!

New flightsim drama in the making!

Anybody have an idea about what's going on?

Zoals de titel aangeeft: wat is jouw typisch Nederlandse lifehack?

Weer eens een voorbeeld van hoe de bezuinigen van 10-15 jaar terug nu grote gevolgen hebben. Mensen zitten helemaal vast in het TBS-systeem zonder dat ze ooit veroordeeld zijn.

Ik blijf het altijd moeilijk vinden bij dit soort programma's: in hoeverre is het eerlijk om de studenten allemaal extra training te geven als het systeem misschien wel gewoon aangepakt moet worden?
