  “No justification needed”?

  Bitch, blimps don’t need speed for lift. They achieve lift through having volume. The more volume you have, the less surface area you have relatively.

  This is what I’ve been saying the whole time.

  You not understanding that makes you saying you’re a “pro-engineer” exceedingly hilarious. Watch the Veritasium video I linked in the first one and you’ll get at least a basic understanding if you don’t suffer from some severe neurodevelopmental issues.

    The fact that you assume I don’t understand that basic fact clears that out that this is not a serious discussion. You think “plane, heavy, need fuel” “blimps cool, lighter than air” and work your calculations from there. I am sad I wasted so much time in it.

      The fact that you assume I don’t understand that obvious fact clears that out that this is not a serious discussion.

      The fact that you think I’m assuming is hilarious.

      I’m not assuming anything. You’ve demonstrated that you don’t understand these things, but since you don’t understand them, you don’t understand the ignorance you’ve demonstrated. Which is all the more hilarious.

      You can’t do any of the math, you can’t reason out anything and you’re just fucking offended that I reminded you reality exists.

      Dude. If you’re that much of an arrogant arsehole, you’ll never learn enough to be the genius you’re larping as.
