I'm not sure how you're controlling a ship's Y-axis, but for planes and helicopters that's absolutely standard and how it works in the real world. Hence the term "Pull up!"

The one or two pilots in this thread just read this in the GPWS voice and feel their heart beat a little faster now.

You don't need to solve anything.

Few people bother with statistics. Far more often their 'common sense' reasoning goes: "Well there must be horrible crime, otherwise they wouldn't send in the national guard".

I'll just maintain my rig for as long as it keeps trucking on. I used to build a new 2-3k machine every 3-4 years for the past 18 years, but there's just no point to it. The returns are marginal now and prices are ludicrous.

Yeah but that's gonna make it so much harder to divide peoples via nationalist sentiment and continue imperialist exploitation.

Oligarchs and billionaires already work to undermine and break the EU because it carries collectivist sentiments and brought some beneficial side effects to the people - mostly somewhat privileged white people at that.

If they don't act on it nor incite others to do so, then no. That's exactly the difference between harassment and stochastic terrorism.

Why the hell is there a deadline? Just for malicious antidemocratic parties to exploit?

Wishing death isn't an indirect cause of anything, though inciting others to do harm could be.

The bar is in hell, as they say.

To paraphrase Dan Olson: "They want to build a world where they are right by definition, and everyone else is silent."

The K series used to have metal bodies as well, and a much better look. Glad I nabbed two before they stopped making those.

What are you comparing against? Only the water drank by cattle? That's laughably ignorant.

It doesn't matter if you go by weight, volume, or calories - eating plants is a ton less water-intensive than feeding it to cattle raised for slaughter.

It's still a valid reason considering how many US counties are struggling with droughts.
