think of any multi-crew single piston engines
davout: flying into clouds, forgetting
to switch
the fuel
tank selector
to
the full one,
that kind of stuff
davout: usually
the pilot being a derp
pete_dushenski: o hey oilers come from behind. 4-3 in ot
to lead series 3-2
davout: i was
told
that
the risk of flying non-commercial single engines was roughly equivalent
to motor-biking
pete_dushenski: i guess i like my pilots like i like my kidneys. not 'rational' or 'efficient' but what can i say.
then again, it's not like i'll be flying anything other
than commerical for
the forseeable future
davout: i
think single engine
turbo prop could be multi-crew
davout: yeah, i can't
think of any multi-crew single piston engines
☟︎ davout: not really because of
the need for a "backup pilot"
davout: i don't
think it does matter
that much,
there's usually
two pilots because
there's more buttons
pete_dushenski: davout: does one pilot v.
two pilots matter as much as i suspect it does (ie. quite a lot) ?
davout: also props can mean a piston engine, as well as a
turbo-prop
davout: i don't
think it makes any difference from a safety pov
davout: engines are regularly changed when
their potential is up

the fuck wants old cessna ? guaranteed death
trap.

ben_vulpes: gotta brick
those up before
the flying ones start coming

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: cute little portal
to
the netherworld you got
there
mircea_popescu: one lulzy bit being
that
the gmx account is known-compromised since cca 2013.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-21 02:45 mircea_popescu: multiple servers!!!* (*
terms and conditions apply. one wife for each soldier means everyone's fucking
the same old rubber chicken)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform just a little bit of "consensus building" on
the left.
BingoBoingo: And still more regional weird: "Bronke explained
that few people in
the area have access
to one or more of
the substances found in Ellerbusch’s body. He implied
that investigators from multiple counties are looking into where
the
teen may have received
the substance or substances."
BingoBoingo: "Police say more
than $100,000 in
trucks and lawn equipment was stolen Wednesday night or
Thursday morning from a business in Caseyville. St. Clair County Sheriff’s Capt. Bruce Fleshren said a large section of fencing was cut, and gates were rammed by
trucks at
the business, Munie Green Care."
BingoBoingo: In other news, of
the
tomatoes installed

the vine which has put on
the most size so far is
the aptly named "Beefmaster" cultivar

☟︎ trinque: hey man, one windows license, one host key.

BingoBoingo: Or did Mexico
try
the cocaine and
toggle switch RNG idea and it
turns out cocaine is deterministic
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> 9931...5093 divides RSA Moduli belonging
to all of mexico! << But is
the RSA moduli warm letting you know it just emerged from
the worm's ass?
mircea_popescu: 9931...5093 divides RSA Moduli belonging
to all of mexico!
ben_vulpes: princeton, stating
the obvious as far back as 2014
mircea_popescu: and in other "holy shit i love
this place" lulz : i bought
three fresh coconuts for a
thousand colones
today ; and half a dozen superb riple mangos for
two.
this comes
to almost 10 kgs of produce for six dollars
total.
then further down
the street proceeded into
telas
tienda, selling authentic silk brocade, five bux
the double-length metre. and it is silk, straight from
the worm's ass. it burns,
the grain feels right, you nam
mircea_popescu: otherwise,
their usual mode of death would be "rode over a pebble"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the reason
that is
the usual mode of death is helmet laws.
mats: so many
twits on
their smahtphones
mats: being on
the road at all is
terrifying
ben_vulpes: it also mitigates against point of motorcycle which is
to go out in style and at speed
ben_vulpes: there are many less
traumatic failure modes helmet mitigates against
pete_dushenski: but... freakishly, frighteningly
tiny. one pilot affiars are no-go afaic.
trinque: plus reliable / nice looking
toyotas have not yet been canceled.
pete_dushenski: not really gangster enough, nor sporty enough, for my particular
tastes. $60k isn't crazy for A
truck, but not for
that one imo.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-20 21:19 mircea_popescu: i know i'd pay a premium
to wipe my ass with argentina for years
to come.
pete_dushenski: it's really not hard
to spend
two hours a day reading logs just
to check all
the obscure and arcane references. and
that's before reading all
the links.

times', and

☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-04-20 13:52 mircea_popescu: yes. it doesn't mean "money-as-property" in
the sense of "old destroyed world, i get
to keep my money". it means money as property in
the sense of, money IS A PROPERTY of other objects. like being
the color red.
pete_dushenski: of course, same could be said of air-cooled porsche or 50s ferrari, but neither of
these sports cars were made in
the kinds of quantities
the
toyotruck was.
then again,
the quantity of unrusted, unbagged units probably isn't all
that far off
the mark.
ben_vulpes: what's
that after adjusting for inflation?
