I think that this is more a "proof of concept" for the METHOD, more than it was for making experimental UAVs.
Absolutely. They will build thousands of devices using this method, especially being able to transmit parts digitally to the field.
When you want something built, come see me. If you want correct grammar and spelling, get a F*ing liberal arts student.
If you would like something built, then you can come and see me. If you would like correct grammar and, spelling then get a fucking liberal arts student.
Censorship is almost as offensive as political correctness, besides you shouldn't capitalise the F in fucking cause it looks fucking stupid, unless of course you meant 'get Fucking a liberal arts student' in which case it's probably ok.
And good riddance to one of the most overpriced and inefficient NASA programs and hello to the age of private space exploration. In 2011 money, the total cost of the space shuttle program was $190 billion (or $1.5 billion per launch) and let's face it, it wasn't worth it.
The way *this* shuttle was designed wasn't worth it.
The concept of a glider lander is a pretty good idea if the glider is on top of the launcher stack.
The CAIB findings of ice strikes from the tank to the orbiter as the design flaw in the side mounted configuration that had been accepted during the operation of the Shuttle. As it stands CAIB's criticism that it was a development vehicle and not a Space Transport Service is reasonable. I think if you frame the Shuttle program that way, then it was a success.
If it was designed without all that engine mass to move around and having to repair tiles from ice strikes the lower maintenance operation may have actually made it viable, but that's the price of some compromises. At least the knowledge exists on how to get that much mass into orbit, hopefully it can be utilised again.
Whether it be private or government, I hope the sacrifice of those who flew the shuttles will be acknowledged by implementing the appropriate safety and engineering cultures required to operate such extreme vehicles for human flight.
Sooner than later people have to decide what forum free speech takes. If it isn't on the net then it isn't anywhere. I want to be offended, because it tells me free speech isn't dead.
That said, there goes another nail into free speech's coffin.
Any one who has any doubts about that should investigate the story of the Aircraft carrier HMAS Melbourne colliding with a destroyer and sinking it, all 82 crew were lost. The aircraft carrier was damaged but made it home.
Nobody likes hard work. Thinking is the hardest work and programming requires a lot of thinking. It's not that programming is hard, it's that thinking is hard and the smartest programmers have worked hard to be good enough to solve the most interesting problems. They understand that thinking is it's own reward.
If that is difficult for you to think about, then it's unlikely you will ever be a programmer.

This is the expected pattern, followed by a steady progression into the food chain as these fish are eaten by their predators.
dammit, I posted before moderating... MOD PARENT UP

Invented by Jethro Tull. Bet you didn't know that.
His flute teacher told him to put his foot down, again and again and again...
Wouldn't it be three 'wides' and yer out, I don't think baseball is that big in NZ.
L.A, like many cities, are paying dearly for getting rid of their tram systems. I'd imagine that not all work places have a shower either.
Hint: it rhymes with sivate prector.
privates protector? no
silent rectum, no

So play the sound of pissing while they're drinking the big drinks, hmmm, interesting.

Whose pip size is bigger than whose.
How to correct the maths teachers questions, and then ask for 101% as a test result.
I also taught myself how to program a for loop to print all the lines I had to write, so yeah, time management was also a big one.

I guess it's just me on that one.
I'm not fucking rude, you moron.
Seriously - don't hire assholes

Most interesting and profitable to track because they don't want to be tracked.
It's like putting a kid in front of a big red button and saying "DON'T TOUCH THAT BIG RED BUTTON". Seriously, did anyone expect anything less?
Like a six digit party.

Modern films seem to have a lot of jerks in them too.
wtf?
Fuck, Arctic, anyway fucked it, fuck. Faster fuck, make fucked, fuck. Fucking tanker ice clear for, fuck. More me, profits for, fuck. Fuck cares global, warming who, fuck?
Fucking Russia Soviet jokes in lame, fuck. Clearer for make you any, fuck. Nuclear ball breaker Arctic fuck the, fuck.
Fuck.
Anyway Arctic, fucked it. Make faster fucked. Ice clear tanker for, fuck. Profits more me for, fuck. Warming global, cares who, fuck?
