I have yet to encounter any toxicity, but I’m sure it’s out there somewhere. For reference, I’m lvl 40.

You would be surprised how much you can communicate by just pinging stuff. I’ve had many missions with randos where a single word wasn’t spoken, but we were all actively pinging high priority targets and putting markers on the map for our intentions.
Also the fact that they are made of metal. Heck, just the idea of lighting a fire below deck of a ship made of cast iron back in the civil war was seen as something insane.
I’m interested to see what they come up with to solve the issues of cold environments at altitude and refueling between legs.
I fix giant metal birds that light themselves on fire and scream really loud to fly across the sky. The kingdom heavily regulates who fixes them, how they fix them, and who flies them to make sure everyone is safe.
It’s also very easy to run an AI image generation tool locally using open source models.
The issue with those items is that they are not in the list of approved materials for Boeing’s manuals. It might be normal to see these sort of practices in a line maintenance environment where it’s hard to get the proper tooling; but the manufacturer should be abiding by it’s own regulated publications. It’s just more symptoms of their cost cutting and schedule rushing measures that are leading to their quality issues.
My company has been spending a lot of time and money doing warranty repairs on brand new airplanes that we received from Boeing over the past couple of years. It’s very concerning when a customer has to fix things that should have never left the factory floor.
Payday 2 was good for a while, but then it got buried under a mountain of DLC and people slowly stopped playing because of the aggressive monetization. They came out swinging with the same tactics in Payday 3 with only minor content improvements, so people weren’t as motivated to buy the same game again.
Cities: Skylines 2 appears to be going the same route.
Considering that writer is pumping out multiple articles a day, they most likely are to some extent.
Just unplug them? Most appliances still draw some electricity (i.e. phantom load) when turned off.
Yes, but I like gaming without having to tweak things for every game. Proton is looking pretty good thanks to the Steam Deck. Hopefully it’ll be a very solid option when it comes time for me to make a decision.
Unfortunately, a lot of my music software and hardware is incompatible with both Linux and W11
Yarr harr fiddle di dee…
It’s simple. You block the adblocker blocker. There’s usually an option for “enable adblocker blocker blocker” in your adblocker options.
But in this case, they’re not. Plus, the crew are going to be the ones determining if their VOR/DME makes sense or not.
I had it on my wishlist for a couple of years and never saw it go on sale. I can now say it’s well worth the price.
I’ve blown up multiple steam engines, flung myself into a valley after spending too much time reviewing my paperwork, crashed into a line of tankers after assuming a main line would be open for me (causing a chain reaction if explosions), and blown out my drivetrain from hauling too much ass down a steep hill and keeping the gearbox engaged. Great times.
The career building system is good, too. You start with a little diesel electric shunter, and can work your way up to the big boys, hauling long trains with dangerous freight. The routes are interesting and keep you on your toes, too.
I’ll definitely check that out!
First, they have to align on the ground. You initialize them with your current known position (usually by GPS or your known airport/gate spot). Then, you wait for them to synchronize with the Earth’s rotation. If you’re far north, like in Alaska, this could take half an hour. If you’re close to the equator, it could take 5 minutes. Once they’re ready, from that point, any movement you make, it will know where you are and where you’ve been.
If you spin up a gyro and begin moving around, it will maintain it’s starting position. You can use this deflection to calculate direction. If you know how fast you are going and for how long, you’ll have your position.
Mechanical gyros drift. It’s the nature of a world with friction. Newer IRUs use laser gyros, so the only real drift they have comes from extremely minute rounding errors.
If it’s a smaller plane (such as a CRJ / ERJ) with only one IRU, it will not be able to determine if GPS is valid or not, so the drift correction gets spoiled.
Large commercial aircraft are using 3 IRUs, with newer aircraft using ADIRUs. If GPS does not agree with the three IRUs, the GPS data is thrown out. If the GPS is within tolerance, correction is applied. You could build up very small errors over a long distance, but you should still be pretty close to the airfield when you get there.
ADIRUs will throw out bad GPS data if it disagrees with multiple IRUs, hence why there’s usually 3 on the aircraft. That being said, if the GPS is close enough to the three, then correction will still be applied.
If they’re using the older IRUs, the drift is corrected via redundancy and not GPS. Usually pilots will report drift based on their final IRU coordinates compared against GPS. Even then, they should still be checking their course with VOR.
The real answer is to have them put their heads together.
