Putting a utility scale solar project on a brownfield site. In theory, it's great. In the real world, it's a trap. Because what you think is a brownfield is someone else's precious something or other and they will slit your throat before they let you get anywhere near it with a solar panel.

When you burn $1 worth of gasoline in your car: you're paying ~20 cents to have the oil extracted, refined into gasoline and delivered to the gas station, ~60 cents to heat up your engine block (e.g. waste heat), and AT MOST 20 cents to move the car around. It's tragic.

Unfortunately, combat search and rescue missions are notorious for spontaneously generating follow-on combat search and rescue missions.

The growth market for car manufacturers is... not the US. The thing that the American consumer will need to accept is not sub-par Chinese automotive build quality, but rather not being the center of attention anymore.

$270 million was the ~ish replacement cost we used in 552 acw opr/epr bullets circa 2002. The actual pricetag to replace the capability of one E-3 right now is north of $700 million.

Un-jamming the the e-3's TADIL-A modem in flight by unracking it and dropping it on the deck from waist height.

Yes. I was a weapons officer and flew on USAF e-3s in the early '00s. Had one opportunity to fly on a RAF sentry and it was noticeably much less shitty than ours generally were. Part of that was definitely the engines, but them being much newer tracks.

Makes sense. I did time on most of the domestic tail numbers. Without looking it up I would have guessed that the only examples built after the mid 80s were the JDF 767s.

The food was incredible overall. That particular pizza just wasn't for us. Interesting to learn that it's popular with the youths!

Tale of two cities. One of our local towered fields has 2 parallel runways and typically runs three controllers; one per rwy and a separate ground. Then theres another local tower where the tower is "remote"๐Ÿ˜ฌ.

India has a once-in-a-century opportunity to become a global energy superpower.

Not because of oil or gas.

Because of solar, wind, storage, and hydrogen.

A $1T India New Energy Transition Fund could turn energy imports into energy exports. ๐Ÿงต

Spent several days in ostuni a couple years back. Had one bad restaurant meal: pizza topped with French fries. Can't say i'd recommend it. Everything else was sublime even the sketchy hole-in-the-wall places.

De-conflict our defensive counter air elements? Get serious now. Only a Wokester would ever think about DE-confliction. We need people MOAR conflicting, not less.

Pretty rare for a western fighter with a decent AI radar to fly with more than 2 heaters. But also, there's no reason it couldn't have been both.
