The clueless engineers/mechanics think the ERA tiles will add extra protection to the jet and decided to start affixing them to the body without running it by anyone else first.
The reality is that the tiles will weigh the plane down significantly and most definitely destroy the entire plane if one of them gets set off.
It’s the equivalent of strapping plate armor to a flying bird. But also the armor explodes when damaged.

Who said I love them? I don’t mind an occasional reddit repost bot that is limited to its specific community, but I absolutely despise AI slop posts and spam accounts.

That’s the wonderful thing about Lemmy, you can easily block all of those bots she pretty much make it all disappear. There are even some instances that are just bots.
Sure, new bots will be popping up every now and then, but it’s pretty easy to remove the majority of the bot posts.

They are adding ERA Panels to the outside of a jet.
ERA tiles, or Explosive Reactive Armor, are small explosive charges sandwiched between two metal plates. They are added to the outside of modern tanks as a means of protection. ERA tiles are designed to detonate when hit by a tank shell or other round.
Essentially, the small explosion they cause can greatly reduce the effectiveness of certain armor penetrating rounds.
All in all, the joke is that they are attaching a bunch of bombs to a plane that, first off, shouldn’t be concerned about tank rounds, and secondly, doesn’t have enough armor to survive the ERA detonations in the first place.

The footage reveals that whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) spend far more time feeding underwater than scientists realized and that they use a surprising variety of foraging techniques that had never been documented before.

You can use the cross-eye trick like everyone does to cheat on spot the difference puzzles. The two images have perfectly identical perspectives that you could only achieve if you mounted a camera perfectly and never touched it throughout the entire construction process.

It’s just lazy and or low budget puppet/flash animation. It’s the type of animation where each body part is a separate png and they are attached by rotating joints.
- Comment on Chaos 2 months ago:
Here’s a good way to visualize chaos vs order in this context. Imagine you have a thousand marbles neatly stacked in a pile like cannonballs are. That’s order. They operate as one entity. If you want to move the stack, you must move them all at once and very carefully.
Now imagine those thousand marbles all strewn about your house. They are now a thousand different entities. You can’t interact with all of them at once anymore.
You bring order back to the system by stacking the marbles again. It takes a lot of energy to stack them, and, with enough of it, you can return the marbles back to one entity.

How do the people here feel about Snoop? If he’s hanging around people like Bulk Bogan, then I can’t imagine him being particularly good.

Not in a million times would I do this. IT would be able to sniff that out in a heartbeat. Sure, maybe no one will notice for a long while, but the instant you’re found you fired on the spot.

This has gotta be the 10th "We have invented Nano-Bots!!! (That are really just shapes controlled by a big magnet outside the body) That I have seen in the past decade or 2)
None of them are ever robots and none of them are ever Nano-Bots. Yes, they are useful advances in medicine, but every article, (and seemingly the researchers too,) love to sensationalize them to high heaven.

Take a look at melatonin. It doesn’t put you to sleep per-say, but it helps your brain say “it’s time to sleep”.
It’s mild for me, but it makes my best friend sleepy pretty quick.

So true
I have this video saved as an mp3 on a second device just for sleeping. Helps block plug little noises that my broken brain terms to fixate on. It’s 8 hours too, so you can use it as a impromptu timer to know when to wake up. If the nose hasn’t stopped, then it’s not time to wake yet.
