Let's not forget that the Concord failed in 2003. I wonder what started happening around then that made that actual flying part a smaller fraction of the overall time spent traveling.....

Even if you can step through a portal and instantaneously get to London from NY, if you still have to go through the rest of the airline process the time savings just isn't that huge.

No, the people who make DCS world.

I guess we can fuck GD too though, I almost accepted an offer there until I got warned off by a friend. The primes are never fun places to work.

Obligatory fuck eagle dynamics

The western world has a very black and white view of the conflict. The Taiwanese/Chinese view it in a much more complicated way that's a bit hard to grasp as a westerner.

Or not subsidize oil and gas to the tune of ~$20 billion/yr and corn at $2.2 billion/yr and redirect that towards EVs.

Yeah until we literally run out of roofs, fields, parking lots, and fucking ocean space and are contemplating a fucking Dyson sphere I really don't understand these projects.

Deere just seems to be the most short-sighted company in the industry. I was in the market for a tiny tractor and even the fucking loader buckets are proprietary. Every other brand standardized on the skid steer/track loader interface so you can use all the attachments that are widely available but if you want to use them on a Deere you need to pay extra for a special adapter. There is literally nothing better about their system, it's just designed to make you buy their attachments.

You'd need exactly two skyscrapers actually

We require additional desert power
