After 15 years Mir had 140 known micro-organisms. It also stank. The ISS has been up for 20 years with another 11 to go. It's going to get pretty foul up there!
Goalkeeper uses a US gun, the General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger. It's famously used in the A-10 as well.
The only carriers ever fitted with Goalkeeper were HMS Invincible and HMS Illustrious, both of which are long gone. The USN carriers use Phalanx, which is a US made system.
ROKS Dokdo and ROKS Marado use Goalkeeper, but they're classed as amphibious assault ships*, not carriers.
I don't know the True Name of Candy Crush but Powershell does. The wildcards should handle it for you. Try this:
Get-AppxPackage *candy* | Remove-AppxPackage
The safer option is to get the name first, then use that to uninstall:
Get-AppxPackage -Name *candy*
Or this gives you the full list of internal names, some translation required:
Get-AppxPackage | Select Name, PackageFullName
Note that Groove shows up as Zune, there will be others with odd names.
I seriously doubt there are enough people home-building drones for DJI to be concerned. It's far more likely to me that they are trying to self-regulate the industry so drones don't get banned or restricted. They don't want most of their market to disappear.
And you should learn the difference between trawlers and naval vessels. Firing on civilians in international waters during the Cod Wars did not make Iceland any friends in the UK.
Some Vaio laptops have an option to only charge to 80%. I set in on mine and the battery is still trucking after many years. Of course Sony Mobile is the old Sony Ericsson, a completely different business unit. They probably don't know about it and the patents, if any, may have been sold with the laptop division.
The three V bombers were designed for high altitude operations. They were switched to low altitudes due to the threat of SAMs. The air down there is denser and wears aircraft out faster.
The Vickers Valiant wore out first, with it's long flexible wings.
The Avro Vulcan has delta wings which are less flexible and allowed it to operate at low level for far longer.
The Handley Page Victor lasted longest because it was converted to reconnaisance and tanking and stayed in thinner air. It's enormous bomb bay made it suitable for this job.
The B52 was never switched to low level operations so comparing the fatigue life of its airframe to the V bombers isn't really fair.
Not an SR-71, a Tu-160. Specifically the TU-160SK / Burlak combo, which was actually studied by the Germans. First stage ignition at mach 1.7 and 13500 metres altitude to get a 1100kg payload into a 100km orbit.
they are worthless for hitting anything after the first round
That was the point! They say you should never explain a joke, but just for you...
The first few shots hit the victim, recoil pushes the gun off target and the rest of the bullets cause collateral damage. Therefore semi-auto has less cost to the taxpayer as the bullets all hit the target, which explains governments don't like civvies getting automatic weapons - they want us to do our murders cleanly.
the semo-automatic version would have the same muzzle velocity as the automatic. And feature higher accuracy.
And less collateral damage for the taxpayer to fix. See, banning fully automatic weapons is in the public interest! Murders are inevitable but messy side effects can be avoided.:)
The main problem with magazine explosions in warships or tanks is the propellant charge, not the shell filling. Shells are generally pretty insensitive and the bursting charge of an armour piercing shell is comparatively small.
Obviously rail guns remove the risk of propellant and warhead explosions, but the price is no indirect fire. Naval gunnery is mosty used for shore bombardment these days, firing at targets behind a hill isn't going to happen with a railgun.
While "traditional" tanks rounds were explosive, modern ones are generally kinetic, but ammunition explosions are still a risk due to the propellant. Surprisingly some WWII tanks fired solid shot at the start of the war, but almost modern APDS rounds appeared in 1944.
So my electricity bill's going to go down now? No, I didn't think so either.
It's a pity wind and solar aren't reliable in the UK. Maybe we could install the turbines in parliament and make use of a ready supply of hot air. We could install solar panels too, the MPs all think the sun shines out of their arses.
According to the law, no passenger would be required to move or give up his seat and stand if the bus was crowded and no other seats were available. Over time and by custom, however, Montgomery bus drivers adopted the practice of requiring black riders to move when there were no white-only seats left.

He clearly advanced, now he's gone back to it for (specified) reasons.
Then there's this:

spywhere: You failed reading comprehension.
geek: No, but you certainly did.
Did you not notice (or comprehend maybe) that you're responding to the same guy?

Want to remove any others?

Yeah, that one's a pain in the arse. Removing the folder from Quick Access will make it behave itself again.
Obviously we need a real fix but I won't be holding my breath.

No-one said it was a 35mm SLR. They could be comparing it to a 110 SLR - Pentax made a few.

The Hindenburg isn't an aircraft. Well, not any more anyway. I know Slashdot is a bit slow reporting news but it caught fire and crashed 80 years ago.
Actually they were both designed by the same guy - Roger Munk.
Speaking as a Brit, Xlerators are better than Dyson Airblades and I don't give a damn where they're made.

TFS mentions two companies. One of them is Chinese (DJI).
I doubt the other Chinese companies can beat them so easily.

We can't flood all of Wales for pump storage power stations. I'm willing to give it a shot though.

Doesn't matter. A law is a law. Period.
Apropos of nothing, how do you feel about Rosa Parks not moving to the back of the bus?
She was not legally required to.
Bribery works everywhere. Every country can't be in the third world.
