    Wow, I've never really seen one of those before. That's pretty cool how they managed to have 4 engines on a tiny plane. Kinda reminds me of how there is 8 engines on the Boeing B-52H Stratofortress.

    Lol, but it's classified as an interceptor jet that's bigger than a bus.

    I'm 190 6'2",  I like 172s but my favorite plane that I have flow has been a 1934 Piper Cub. I do love tail dragers there is something special about them that makes me love them.

    I also need to get back to my local airports and start back up of my flying lessons for my private licence. 
    Man I will never again fly in a 152, because I'm 6'2" and that didn't fit me at 6'.

    Northwest's bowling shoe livery was nice. The livery before they got bought by Delta was also nice

    I honestly love Delta's early 2000s livery.
    I also fucking LOVE United's 90s and early 2000s grey livery.
    But nothing, NOTHING, tops the old Federal Express livery.

    Yeah, I've been through Ohio. I think it'd kinda be neat to take a road trip with @Dan Castellaneta to Dayton, OH and Washington, DC to go to the two museums there. or fly although they're not that far from HSV

    The old livery makes that "modern" airliner look retro
     
    I agree though, it's not bad.

    That one is pretty neat. The B-29s and B-2 Spirits are pretty cool military planes. The P-8 and C130 are pretty cool too. I suppose the Airbus equivalents are neat too

    handymanshandle reacted to PlayStation 2 in Whoosh - The Airplane and Airline Thread   
    To me, there's no other jet that's like the McDonnell Douglas DC-10 and the MD-11. That shit still looks modern to this day. Too bad it's retired from passenger service.

    Not the biggest airplane guy, but I do love me some military aircraft.
     
    One of my all-time favorite planes is the SR-71 Blackbird:
    I've actually gotten the opportunity to see one of these IRL twice, it's a work of art if I do say so. Quite a bit smaller than most people expect it to be.

    Surface No.
    On another, more serious note, that screen resolution, damn.
    On one end I see where you come from, but on another end, one of the selling points of the Surface series in general is that it's basically a tablet that can run whatever typical Windows program you can.
    New question. Why the hell do these come with Windows 10 S?

    handymanshandle reacted to PlayStation 2 in When did you guys start getting into PC’s and when did you build your first masterpiece?   
    Around... 2013?
    I remember the A10-5800K being an appealing option to me.
    The first PC I built for myself was something that consisted of an FX-4100 and a 7850. A couple of days before I built my brother's upgraded rig.
    My current rig was originally built in September 2017 and the new CPU was added about a month ago.

    handymanshandle reacted to dizmo in Fuel tankers should be restricted from major/minor roads   
    Ok, so you restrict them from major roads. Where do you send them? Smaller roads, that are less likely to be well maintained (especially if this major road wasn't), and weren't designed to take large vehicles like that? That sounds like a wonderful idea...
     
    It doesn't come down to restrictions, but regulation. You have to make sure the vehicles are in good shape, and the drivers are trained.
     
    Totally agree. I think they should find a way that if you get into an accident, they can tell if you've been on your phone, without question. If you were, you should lose any rights to coverage and lawsuit. It's pathetic how many drivers spend time glued to their phones. It's surpassed DUI in many areas in terms of damage.
    Kind of...this was likely a truck delivering fuel to a gas station. So. That's not really fixed with pipelines. It wasn't crude.

    I could be doing better things with my money, like actually upgrading my PC, but instead I'm wasting it on Team Fortress 2. Oh well, $10 on a sign with Dan Castellaneta's face is better than snorting coke.

    handymanshandle reacted to Nowak in Leaks suggest that Microsoft has recently scrapped off the rumored “Surface Andromeda” tablet/phone   
    But the Microsofties told me that Andromeda will change everything and make Android and iOS irrelevant (because apparently the mobile market cares more about being productive than socializing)
     
    Even though the failure of Windows Phone shows that is literally not the case.

    Transport trucks causing accidents in general isn't a common occurrence. You want to talk about an accident-causer, look at people on their phones, or people drunk driving.

    I gotta admit, having an S8+ myself the iPhone 8 is very tempting.
    My mom has one and it seems pretty nice, but man iOS has changed so much.
