re: VW Chattanooga Workers Expand Mexican Economic Growth

[quote]Chattanooga is a LIBERAL cesspool. Crazy that it’s in East TN but I was surprised by the amount of blue hair Antifa types rolling around there.[/quote]
Every inner city is Liberal. Hamilton County which it is in is still very conservative. It’s a great place to live. Where the VW plant ...

I use OBS to capture HOA meetings our board tries to turn off recording in Zoom. I am sure you could do it that way. It wouldn't be as good as the original source, but it would get the job done....

Skip the Smokies, look around highlands, cashiers, blue ridge, brevard. Lots of cool shite through those areas.
Lots of amazing food in comparison to the chain garbage in the Smokies area....

Shock wise been hit a ton by 120 and a below. 250 DC hurt pretty bad, luckily that hit was a grazing injury from faulty equipment.
Worst by far was a static ground line on an air blast circuit breaker that came loose in a 500kV switchyard. It swung into me while I was leaning against a Gator UV...

[quote]I think Disney only has distribution rights, so they don’t have any kind of creative or production control. At this point, Bluey is so popular that Ludo Studio could tell Disney to piss off if it came to that.[/quote]
Yeah only thing Disney has is US is internet and TV airing rights. The...

The Sign was good until the end. Me and my wife started talking about what kind of concessions and such to break the contract. Took us out of the episode.
Not sure about the lesson if you are moving your kids too, would be a nightmare to show your kids that and then to actually follow through w...

[quote]This makes no sense, as the plane would have to move for the wheels to start moving. Once moving, the treadmill would not be bale to stop the plane's initial movement, as the only contact the treadmill has with anything on the plane is the wheels, which are not part of the plane's "drivetrain...

[quote]Well in that case, i'd say the magic treadmill with its infinite speed will overcome the 747's thrust cause it is limited.[/quote]
I'm going with the magic treadmill is pushing so much air at that point, lift will be achieved. :devil:...

[quote]But your answer doesn't answer the question. A better question for your answer would be "will the plane take off"[/quote]
The plane is sitting on the runway. Where does it say that the engines have to be on or thrusting? This answer is the riddle like answer. Nowhere in the question do...

[quote]But the question is "can it take off?" Your answer doesn't answer that in any meaningful way.[/quote]
That's why the question is designed to cause interaction and argument. You answered the question, people aren't going to be happy with the answer....
