Yeah I don't understand the fuss over x-plane. A lot of the aircraft fly like shit (I got the F-22 to accelerate continuously vertically until I blacked out, WTF). I don't care that it uses damn blade element theory; it's a pretty much a crude real time CFD analysis and it shows.
Empirical parameters for a model are usually better than a crappy analysis, yet x-plane insists it's the tits because it does crappy analysis in real-time.
It relies on a transmitting transponder in the aircraft you are detecting, which can malfunction or be intentionally turned off (although I'm not sure if the advanced transponders on heavy aircraft can be turned off), so yeah, TCAS can definitely fail.
Maybe a certain Mr Schettino could make use of this data when buzzing coastlines:p
(His claim that he hit uncharted rocks is actually true when looking at one of the old and coarse UK bathymetry datasets)
Excuse me?
Do you at least have the decency to reply and admit you have no idea what you're talking about? OK, not no idea, but you seem to have mixed up B-1 and B-52, which is quite significant.:p
OK, it's an FEA mesher and post-processor, but have you ever used Patran? I have a hard time believing that ProE has a worse UI.
I think it's industry standard because it's consistently bad from version to version LOL.
I often have just one beer for the taste, and it's not enough to get tipsy. So unfortunately I can't confirm your hypothesis.
On the other hand I can say you're a pussy and should go back to your Bacardi Cruisers if you think real beer is unpalatable. It's pretty simple isn't it?
I don't think you've spent much time in the UK drinking real ales. They are served warmer than 4.4 degrees.
I lived in Bristol for 5 months and loved the real ale scene.
OK girly boy, weak tasting Munich Lagers are your preferred taste at the moment. That's fine. But don't go spouting off about tasty beers that don't suit you.
Maybe I've been spoilt by being exposed to Pacific NW microbrews, but they definitely aren't as good when as cold as lagers. Hell, at Burning Man I drank a few completely uncooled, and I liked it!
Look at the volume of ice and at the volume of beer.
If you don't go all american on the ice (the american obsession with icing the shit out of water upsets me), the dilution is minor.
And the vast majority aren't.
IPA, APA, PA, bitter, and many of the other excellent varieties of ales are usually less than 6.7%
I like my strong Belgian ales as much as anyone, but to pretend that everything at 5% is piss water is just fucking stupid.
Eh? What uninformed crap.
I work in an aeronautical engineering company as a stress analyst. 3 out of 7 people in my office (including me) are using up to date XP. The newer people have Win 7 on newer computers, so it's not even a matter of seniority.
A core 2 duo with 2 GB of ram and XP works just fine.
Bullshit. The paper plane throw record is 69 m. Try match that with your paper ball.
You can definitely exclude a ball from the definition of "plane". It follows a ballistic trajectory because it doesn't generate lift.
The retard doesn't even have the attention span to check spelling or use some punctuation in the instructions. Sure, if you're writing a one off comment and you're a bit brain damaged, you take stupid liberties; but submitting such shit instructions is just fucking rude.
Haha, obsolete Microsoft system.
Plays the latest and greatest games, and lets me do my engineering work; what more could I want? I have Ubuntu too, but Windows is pretty damn good.
Electronic communication is a tiny fraction of a typical individual's internet traffic. It would not make the slightest difference to the internet or your account. So there's no need to worry about it.
Video, photos, and programs make up most of the volume.
Ah, but this isn't showing it's hugely unstable. These are pretty small earthquakes. And the earth is strained all over the place, that's why there are faults almost everywhere. Now the huge earthquakes are around plate edges where the both the magnitude and rate of strain are high, but smaller earthquakes occur everywhere.
There is empirical evidence that when this fracking extraction started, the rate of earthquakes shot up. The burden of causal proof should be on the people doing potentially harmful things. Saying it's OK to come and engage in your contentious activity until definitely proven guilty is just fucking irresponsible. That's not how science works either; actually it really has nothing to do with science. Science is a method. You are saying "err on the side of making money, until *proven* dangerous" and I am saying "err on the side of status quo until it's likey not to be dangerous".
From TFA:
"Most of these earthquakes were minor. The largest and most widely known resulted from fluid injection at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal near Denver, Colorado. In 1967, an earthquake of magnitude 5.5 followed a series of smaller earthquakes. Injection had been discontinued at the site in the previous year once the link between the fluid injection and the earlier series of earthquakes was established. (Nicholson, Craig and Wesson, R.L., 1990, Earthquake Hazard Associated with Deep Well Injection--A Report to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency: U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1951, 74 p.)"
But it's trivial to slow down your attacks and throw in errors. And while I can't link to evidence, I've seen a comment on slashdot about captcha bots doing exactly that.
It's not your lack of knowledge that's unacceptable (that would be elitism), but that you see nothing wrong with calling things absurd despite having little intuition or knowledge for things like pressure x area, lubrication and earthquakes. I'm no expert in these areas, but I know enough to see right through your arrogance. I'll give you an example that is similar to what you've called "absurd": one person can set off an avalanche weighing thousands of tonnes.
Please note that I am not focusing on your lack on knowledge (and hence implying stupidity), rather how you've behaved despite it. Why do you do it? These aren't matters of emotion, where opinion is all you've got to go on.

It has momentum. C'mon, this is high school physics.

Nah, it's an 80s revival!
Despite you disregarding what I said about one-off, I do appreciate your criticism.

Are you really puzzled by the question of whether a ball is an airplane? The terms "lift" and "ballistic trajectory" haven't crossed your mind?
Bullshit. The paper plane throw record is 69 m. Try match that with your paper ball. You can definitely exclude a ball from the definition of "plane". It follows a ballistic trajectory because it doesn't generate lift.

Why the fuck don't you actually open them instead of talking shit? Do you have an uncontrollable tendency to do so?

Thinking that your poor knowledge is any sort of argument is absurd. I started writing more, but it's probably a waste of time.
