This is a great explanation of the technology. What I have wondered about for years is how much of the craft can be repurposed for future use. Can NASA now make mirrors like these with aluminum reflectors for use in ultra lightweight visual range light telescopes? Can they easily manufacture...

I mean this is a straw man argument. People have not been telling women they can't be President because they are women for half century. You yourself noted that someone had to tell you women once could not get credit cards. Assuming this is true (and I don't recall that at all), this was half...

Be honest. Do you know anyone who has ever had this happen? I know one person. He's a guy in his late 60's, white anglo-saxon protestant, body builder whose parents broke his heart by announcing he isn't smart enough to do many different kinds of things. He was a gym owner at age 22. Not a...

Because this isn't heaven. Life is not fair. People do shitty things. Humanity is never going to produce an utopian society because if it did, it would ruin it. Life is tragic. People are flawed. We use laws to keep people in line enough to make civilization happen. Wondering why people...

I am familiar that half of graphic artists are women. I have myself however, never witnessed the kind of sexism people often claim. Could be because i grew up in NJ, and sexism was out of style here in the 50's. You understand, there were a lot of people who found sexism wrong before the law...

GC, as I said, I think you have a valid complaint if the behavior is identifiably harassment. Citing figures about employment percentages means nothing. Case in point: Sweden has made more effort toward sexual equality than any other nation. One remarkable result is that the more freedom...

You're a little confused. We were not discussing sexual harassment. That's a separate issue. Places that indulge that kind of thing make up the 1/10 places that get complaints about discrimination. I do not object to your observation here that this is toxic behavior that needs to be...

I'm not sure what country you're talking about, but I assure you modern initiatives are completely unnecessary and most are illegal. Gender discrimination has been illegal in the United States since 1964. All that is needed is enforcement of federal law. Private company "initiatives" most...

I don't personally think you can learn from such generalizations without looking afterward for specific examples. There is no reason to trust any of the complaints as made. Everyone complains. If the worker bees are not complaining, odds are management is not riding them properly. I am...

This guy Avenger One is really very good. He doesn't always explain when he should, but usually he makes up for it by the end of his vid. That means if you watch it twice you'll get it all. He si completely correct that the highest lateral thrust of a ship is almost universally ventral. That...

Merry Christmas!

I think it’s worth note that the Sukoran shields on the Defender are highly sought since they alone can give the ability to resist projectiles to medium ships. Vanguard pilots love them and they are worth the cost of the Defender.

That may be true, but you'd need to watch a lot of his vids to say. I've watched a couple dozen and think yes, he does have a small handful of issues he thumps, and doesn't always look at a film in enough detail. The Tomatoes reviewer you posted did a better job doing detailed criticism...

Okay, just so long as you keep in mind I agree entirely with the review you posted. I discovered the show the same year that reviewer did on Adult Swim, and agreed with literally everything he said. I just think he was acting a bit cowardly that he didn't explain the position of the fans when...

Your reviewer noted there was a stir and then failed to say what it was. It was this. The changes to Faye that the fans abhored they abhored specifically because they recognized them as woke complaints about what the Left calls "misogeny". The fans then voted with their lack of attendance...

I think it was a vocal minority, but they were very vocal. They gathered a crowd and forums all over were indeed filled with bile. It's worth noting that Tomatoes does good reviews and I think they're mostly fair, but they seldom match consumer satisfaction. This guy skipped over what we know...

It was a good review and I agree with virtually everything he said, but it doesn't identify why the fans literally hated it and why it was cancelled. The fans were quite vocal and clear about this. They hated Fey and felt they'd been betrayed by THE MESSAGE and that is in fact EXACTLY what...

So spawn ability is gone from the Carrack as well?

What not to do. . . Don't send ground troops without: a) air cover and B) a Cutty Red for respawning. They didn't control the enguagement even amongst their own forces because they did not plan for area dominance. A single rail gun could have made the difference save that they had no...
