I think it's more Luigi and less Floyd

As a pilot...the real faa maps take training to read, but they are quite accurate. But maybe they publish something useless and contradictory for drone operators.

It's a very dumb saying. If you don't have the volts you won't get the amps to kill you that's ohms law.

However, there are plenty of harmless high voltage scenarios as well. Situations with high voltage, but no power.

So really you need both.

There's plenty of stuff dropped, a lot of it is dubious tbh.

My older phones had: IR blaster for controlling TVs FM radio tuner Replaceable battery's Headphone jack (as you noted) Expandable microsd storage Physical Keyboards (no real loss imo)

Probably some others I've forgotten. Honestly, I slightly miss the IR blaster on occasion. I haven't listened to FM radio in ages, but could see it being useful. Replaceable battery's would be nice from a longevity perspective, but I prefer battery packs to device specific batteries for longer life in general and battery life is more than a day for me anyway unless I'm going nuts. The lack of SD storage is the one that bothers me the most.

Keep in mind phones have gained at least a few things in that time. Simple reliable waterproof is a huge one.

That is not the definition of escape velocity. Escape velocity is the minimum velocity to escape a body's gravity well entirely. Orbital is much lower

Ignoring that it burned up and ignoring losses due to drag if it somehow didn't. Isn't the point of escape velocity that it explicitly won't come back down.iar least not on earth. Your trajectory won't matter as you have enough velocity to escape the gravity of earth and will orbit the sun. Further if you managed the solar system escape velocity you will end up orbiting the galactic core. Trajectory doesn't matter if you have escape velocity. Correct trajectory just minimizes the delta v needed to reach that escape velocity.

At least that's all my recollection.

Conceptually, LoL filled a hole. DotA was DotA, complicated, hard, lots of nuance. Some people wanted an even more complicated DotA. Heroes of Newerth filled that hole. Some people wanted a simpler DotA. LoL filled that hole.

I personally preferred HoN, but I can't fault people for preferring LoL.

As a family...I need the family sharing provided by steam. Especially the recent beta version. It's fantastic.
