The key insight is that the force a plane uses to move is independent of the ground, because planes push on the air, not the ground.

Imagine you put a ball on a treadmill and turn it on, what happens? The ball starts to spin and move with the treadmill. Now take your hand and push the ball backwards against the motion of the treadmill, and the ball easily moves in that direction. The force your hand put on the ball is exactly what planes do, since they push on something other than the ground (the treadmill) they have no problem moving, no matter how fast the treadmill is moving.

Plane on a treadmill is really interesting because if you understand how planes work its so obvious what will happen you don’t need to test it. Planes move on the ground by running their engines, which push against the air, the wheels provide zero motive force. It’s also why planes need tugs to move away from the gate, you can’t run the engines in reverse. Planes are not cars, but people tend to assume the thing they don’t understand works like the thing they do understand, and refuse to believe their hasty assumption is wrong even when told directly their hasty assumption is wrong.

Weird place to ask, but both Poodling and SPH’s are common.

It is, can tell just by looking at it it’s a Rubik’s brand.

And what year did we start using that calendar system? Oh right, it was 525.

Somehow people always forget that Ubisoft published Trackmania (2020). (Limited) F2p, one time purchase for Standard access, yearly sub for club access, which is isn’t even worth it if your not a dedicated player.

Yeah that’s just MDMA.

If not friend why friend shaped?

Thus the kingkiller chronicle was born.

He’s a YouTuber that’s been making things since it opened, he make ASDF Movie, so if your reaction to him is “this seems like something a 10yo would like” then yeah, that’s his entire brand.

It has the same root as the also made up word Cybernetics, hope this helps!

If you were wondering, it got named “double u” when u and v were the same letter, V was used at the beginning of words and u ain the middle/end. It wasn’t till much later they were seperated into 2 glyphs for different sounds.

Better than when I went to college and everything only worked in IE

Its because of staking mostly, but pvp more generally. The gmaul can kill almost instantly, but its high risk high reward since if you don’t manage to get the instant KO you’ll get out dps’d by more usual damage options.

Because its partially luck based people liked to use it to gamble in the Duel Arena, betting on the outcome.

Well the Greek alphabet, presumably we will get Beta and Gamma next.

Obligatory “Latine” is the preferred gender neutral term for spanish speakers because it actually follows the gendering rules of the language, rather than english speakers making shit up.

It’s unfair to call them shitty, rock pigeons make nests on flat, stable surfaces, and are tended to by both parents in shifts, so all the nest needs to do is prevent the egg from rolling away when they get up. The nests are perfectly suited to purpose, it’s us humans who are imposing unfair beauty standards for what a nest “should” be.
