And planes reach their higher speeds only at altitude where density is lower

I’d love to see the acceleration calculations for them.

Tiny masses but insane acceleration.

Haha

Wow, that’s nuts

Yet another ignorant jingoist

Take your nonsense over to a political sub

Ah, yes, another jingoist

They’re everywhere all the time. Thousands of flights per day carrying millions of people.

I haven’t flown in several years, but in some years have taken 100+ flights.

For someone on the US coasts (especially North East) getting anywhere quickly beyond a couple hundred miles will possibly involve a plane.

Isn’t that for a skydiver who’s going feet/head first?

While typical “flying w” is much slower?

(Its been a while since I’ve read up on it)

Gotta go being jingoist. Take your nonsense over to a political sub

Very carefully.

I suggest a fully-enclosed space with near-normal earth pressures and air mix. Makes for faster adjustment and less likely to get winded.

I’d have multiple spaces connected to a central space, all with plenty of views to the outside (with appropriate solar blocking in the “glass”).

In the main area I’d have a well stocked bar, with moon/solar system themed drinks. Make it an open bar, anyone who can afford to get there has already paid.

Basically, not much different than hosting on earth, just needs to have a softer floor and walls as people experiment with reduced gravity.

Its not the 24 hr time, its saying it with “o clock” that’s weird

What’s an “advertisement” on the internet look like?

I mean that’s a Google away. Microsoft documents it at every new version.

Here’s some non-MS stuff to read.

I’ve never seen OneDrive forced on Win10.

It’s an option, it’s there by default, but you don’t have to use it. I never have (used the default stuff), and I use OneNote heavily with my PC, iOS, and Android, which requires sync to OneDrive - which I setup later with a user account unrelated to the account on my PC.

Insider, there’s been massive change along the way.

Yea, fundamental paradigm hasn’t changed from a UI perspective, but that’s just to keep people from having to re-learn too much at once.

Under the hood, the change from NT3.51 to 4 was noticeable from a stability standpoint, then from NT4 to Win2k was massive - true plug-n-play, dynamic event capability, performance and stability were significantly improved. XP was a small increase over that.

I had to reboot NT4 every day, often multiple times if I changed hardware, like using a vendor dock even.

Then Win7x64, another massive increase in performance and stability.

Win8 can die in a fire, because it wasn’t any better than 7, with some dumb stuff in the UI and the beginning of MS really scewing up control panel.

Win7 is the high water mark to me, though Win10 is virtually identical to server, it even runs exactly the same Hypervisor framework. The differences from 10/11 to server are mostly tuning, how updates are managed, and server lacks some user-focused services.

I’ve run Server Core and Win10 (for Hyper-V) on the same hardware and the performance difference wasn’t visible. It would take running a large server and heavy VM workloads (eg databases, regular VM migrations, etc), to see the difference.

I don’t see a major performance increase going to Win10 as a single-user machine, but virtualization is much faster than if I were running even Win10 with VMware workstation (naturally).

Imagine the shit storm had a man said something similar.

Sad for both of them.

I’ve never heard “tinhorn” used to refer to an actual object - what an interesting twist language makes through different eras and groups.

The only definition I’ve known is the “inexperienced gambler”:

tinhorn gambler

A cheap, small-stakes gambler who boasts and dresses ostentatiously to seem more successful or skilled than they really are. An allusion to the dice game “chuck-a-luck,” which features a chute, called a “horn,” from which the dice are dispensed. More high-class leather horns were often substituted with makeshift tin ones, and thus cheaper, lower-stakes gamblers were known for their tin horns.He always wears the same three-piece suit and slicks his hair back like he’s the Great Gatsby when he comes in to play, but everyone knows he’s just a tinhorn gambler who taps out after losing a couple hundred bucks.

Not to say you’re using the term incorrectly, at all, just a neat observation about how language drifts.

Yea, us low data users are the exception, so they don’t market to us.

In the US, USMobile has about the best rates for low data plans. I think I’m paying $20/mo for 2 lines at 4GB (shared), and adding more data in a month is cheap. So cheap I’ve set it to automatically add more if I go over.

So do I… Because it"is accurate when I’m not eating right! Haha 😮

“Healthy snacks” are an edge concern - I snack on whatever the fuck I want, because that’s not the prime driver.

Every meal is the prime mover. Balance that for you, and you’ll be closer to where you want to be, and less interested in bad snacks.

When I’m eating right I’m not interested in the bad-for-me stuff nearly as much.
