Reentry survival is a materials question. If someone decides heat resistant ceramic is cheaper all is well until that cames down and we discover it doesn't vaporize like iron (or whatever they make it with)

Kill is the common turn for any dquipment that no longer functions. Short for misson kill.

Any small boat can carry one and toss it over the side. A mine laying boat is easier, but you and one friend with a common fishing boat could do it.

The only worry about low earth orbit is something survives reentry enough to become a bomb. these are enough to destroy a house if that happens - my undertanding is this can't happen but if they did

A typical us truck factory is doing a new truck every two ninutes or less. Cars are likely the same. I don't know how Russia does but I wouldn't expect issues. They can produce men or military vehicles that fast but your basic truck is not something to expect they run out of.

I did the monthly arch upgrade and had to reboot to get some service to come up. Took an extra 5 minutes this month.

It might be but it is risky - if anything goes wrong there goes that data.

In the us the average driver is doing a bit over 20'000km per year. I have no idea what eu numbers are but those look small and in turn mean a longer payoff. Of course average never applies to you, only a community.

Some exists. However there appears to be less than total demand. Somebody won't get some in that situation and if everyone has a contract to get it someone's contract will not be fulfilled. (most contracts also contain fine print about this situation)

Even if you have a futures contract, that contract is worthless if the goods don't exist. They can protect against the price going up, but if availability at any price is in question they are meaningless.

Also, if you have a contract it might still be in your best interest to sell the contract and not take the fuel at all.

It isn't the $20 is the most counterfeited. The $100 is second. However if you live outside of the US the $100 is somewhat more common so depending on where you live what you see might not match reality.

At least according to every search I can find.

In the size range most of us here would be looking at tractors are hydro and don't have a clutch. There are pros and cons to hydro, but for the size of tractors shows hydro is almost always better. (loader work really wants the infinite variable speed)
