Reminds me of WWII. Panzer were fantastic tanks, Sherman tanks were closer to a modern day prius by comparison... Sherman's won out only due to superior numbers (and maneuverability because they lacked the large gun the panzers had). ME 109 was a marvelous piece of engineering, but the US brought far more planes to bear than germany could squeeze out of their bombed out factories.
Hell Germans had Machine guns, and The soviets lead cavalry charges into them... in stalingrad every other man got a rifle..
Oh, God, where to start. The Me-109 was a good plane. It was also old. The P-51, which was our main fighter in the latter part of the war, outflew it five ways from Sunday. The FW-190, developed during the war, did better, but didn't fly well at high altitudes. The Germans also couldn't build enough of them to take over completely from the 109s.
The Soviets never led cavalry charges into machine guns. Soviet cavalry was deployed mostly in the Pripet Marshes--where they did very well, the Pripet being unfriendly ground for your average vehicle, even if it's tracked.
"In Stalingrad every other man got a rifle"? The Soviets had to strain for men and equipment in Stalingrad, but that's not even remotely true. And one reason Stalingrad itself went short was because the Russians were saving up for a devasting blow on the German's lightly held flanks outside of Stalingrad--which enabled them to completely surrond the Sixth Army and ultimately destroy it.
Don't dis Russian tanks. The T-34/85, which was Russia's main tank in the latter part of the war, was damn good. Better than the M4 Sherman or the PzKpfw IV, although not quite as good as the Panther. We were the ones with the crappy tanks (the aforementioned Sherman), although our tank crews were generally better than the Russians'.
Well, the F-111 wasn't a total failure. It was a damn fine medium bomber, actually. But yeah, when they tried to make it do every function they could think of, it sucked. And it was never a good fit for either the Navy or the Marines, being too damn big.
Looks more like a bug introduced in version 45. Of everybody giving their browser version, at least in this thread, everybody with version 45 and above gets a crash, while nobody with a version below 45 does. As opposed to summary, which says it's 45 and below.
Considering the fact that engines and planes are designed together
Actually, no, they are often not. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner, for example, is offered with a choice of two different engine models, one of which is also used on the 747. The Concorde's engines are probably unique to it, though, due to the plane's unusual requirements.
Crashes my Chromium quite nicely, thank you. About says it's "Version 45.0.2454.85 Built on 8.1, running on Debian 8.2 (64-bit)". Just entering it on the URL line doesn't do anything, but as soon as I hit enter, boom, Chromium just terminates. Ah, the joys of being up-to-date on your patches...
In fact, your average German military man was NOT a member of the Nazi party--particularly in the Kriegsmarine, which on the whole didn't like the Nazis much (aside from SS formations, which were by definition all Nazis, the most Nazified of the armed forces was the Luftwaffe, thanks mainly to Herr Goering). Most likely there wasn't a single actual Nazi on the boat. Party membership wasn't handed out like party favors--it meant something. You had to earn it, and to earn it you had to want it. You had the choice of fighting for the party or going to the camps, but they never made you join.
And I'll admit I'm not a lawyer, I don't see how this works. You can't trademark in a vacuum; you have to be trademarking the name of a product. That's why it's called a "trademark". And what's more, a trademark only covers trying to sell the same type of product under that name (which is why you can have Apple Records and Apple Computer). So unless this guy owns a university and is trademarking nicknames for it, I don't see how this can interfere with UND at all.
Actually, by the time of the Valkyrie plot, the Allies didn't want Hitler assassinated. If he had been, he might have been replaced by someone competent who might have prolonged the war.
The Nazis could easily have won the war, if Hitler wasn't insane and had settled for controlling mainland Europe west of Stalin. Only an idiot fights on two fronts. Only the heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Idiots invades Russia during the winter. If Hitler had not betrayed Stalin, he could have held mainland Europe indefinitely.
If Hitler had not betrayed Stalin, Stalin would've betrayed Hitler. The non-agression pact was, for Hitler, supposed to be a chance to take care of the West first before invading Russia, and for Stalin, a chance to rebuild and re-organize his armies before taking on Hitler while Hitler beat up the west (who had just given him a massive cold shoulder in the negotiations prior to WWII). This was even largely recognizedatthe time.
When you're a kid, your eye is still growing. Myopic people suffer from an eye that is basically too long--the retina is too far from the lens and the lens will focus in front of it when the target is any distance away. It makes sense that never focussing on the distance encourages the eye to grow this way. It adapts to short focussing distaces.
life -> multicellular life -> dinosaurs -> asteroid impact -> mammals -> apes -> humans -> civilisation -> farming -> nation states -> discovery of coal seams -> metal refining -> industrial revolution -> electronics revolution
You missed what may be the most tenuous link of all: From simple prokaryotic cells to archaea forming a symbiosis with selected bacteria to form nucleated cells with mitochondria (eukaryotes). This enabled the cells to grow greatly in size and have the extra energy need to form multicellular organisms (it's no accident that all organized multi-cellular life is made up of eukaryotic cells). Many scientists regard this as an amazing coincidence even by the large-numbers standard of evolution, and any kind of advanced life couldn't have happened without it.

That's the most obvious thing. Bring in supported systems and train them in those systems as you deploy them.

Wrong. A mouse also drags, which can be difficult to do with a finger.

Norton?? Dear God, no. If you're willing to step up to the plate and pay for something decent, ESET is pretty good.
Actually, it should be unescaped to %00.
Remember, when they give you the software for free, you're not the customer. You're the product.
Are claiming he doesn't completely deserve it?
in more ways than one. It appears to be linguistics, not literature.
And there have been cases where it lead to the loss of the trademark, as with aspirin and escalator.
Nope, just a run-of-the-mill Type VIIC, the most common U-boat. Germany made hundreds of 'em during the war.

...that if you spend all your time as a kid never focussing on anything more than six feet away, you'll most likely wind up near sighted.
