Does anybody have that graphic of all of the different majors divided up into tiers? I'm talking super detailed, it probably had 5-10 majors per tier. This one is not the one I'm asking for.

We're getting further every day. Military systems are becoming exponentially more expensive in development cost with time. Even making new tanks is getting too expensive. See the cancelled expeditionary fighting vehicle for an example of this. All they had to do was make an amphibious tank, well they couldn't, because it just got too expensive.
>>
>>8960127
Why not just use tanks? I can't see any situation where mecha would be superior.

Alright ya noobs, I'm settling this time travel hoax once and for all.

First and foremost: Time is an arbitrary notation created by man. If the whole concept were to die out, none of our maths would be any different. All you're giving meaning to is MOTION. Same with energy, there is no such thing, just different forms of motion. Kinetic energy is a pleonasm.

Now back to time. How the FUCK would you translate said arbitrary time notation to a machine somehow connected to space-"time"?
Pro tip: You can't.

Time is not a physical "thing" in the universe.

Unless you manage to install a framework in the universe with a functional API it's not happening. Yes, mass and speed (same thing) slow down motion but that's it. You can slow down your RELATIVE MOTION as opposed to others but that's not time travel. There's no destination as defined by con-artists getting grant money for fake/stupid study and spend it on booze and cocaine (like my money).

Get over it. There's no such thing as fucking time travel. Niggers.

Also, time TRAVEL implies a destination. Beyond our high level, abstract communication method (which I'm not fond of either). Tell me, where exactly is next week? or last week? Break out the maths faggot, oh, you can't. Because even Einstein didn't predict destination-based time travel. And none of his maths allow for a stable "wormhole".

Checkmate muggles.

Removing thinner skin entirely and sewing the remaining thicker skin to where it was only removes channels for viruses to get in. It's like removing some circuits from a circuitboard lowers total amperage or removing programs from your computer lowers total risk of software exploits being used against you.
I'm saying this as an anteater, by the way.

The latter is preferable but one instantly understands both conventions on sight, so that the existence of both conventions presents almost no practical difficulty, except in situations where perhaps they are carelessly switched between in a given text, which shouldn't ordinarily happen to begin with.

A-B is the difference of sets, i.e.

Okay. I was checking this out.
At 4:00
Don Pettit says, "So perhaps the giant leap for mankind was not the first step on the moon, but going from the surface of the Earth into Earth orbit"
He also said, we no longer can go to moon cause the tech is no longer here.
Yet NASA won't shut up about going to Mars
So, like what the hell is going on??
Earth to earths orbit..okay.
well, we did that before, right?
Shouldn't they have been like hell yes we can leave orbit, and make it to the moon, and after a few trips..NASA decides to destroyed the tech..Yet at the same time were gonna go Mars, and just won't shut up about Mars..
NASA really does deceive like a mother fucker. Hebrew translation was not playing.

It's not that the technology is destroyed, but the talent and experience isn't there anymore.

If we didn't stop going than we would still have that "talent and experience"
It would have gotten easier and easier, but they stop and lost it.
Also it's kinda like..than wth are they doing than while losing "the talent and experience"??

Why not base 210? It will have Chinese-tier amount of characters to accommodate every new number but it will be more efficient in the long run.
