It's a stealth aircraft. It disappeared just like it's supposed to! Probably not that far from the truth. The reality is it has a tiny radar cross section, and it's not like South Carolina is brimming with active air defense radars. Also a random report from X/Twitter ( https://twitter.com/vcdgf555...

The most shocking thing about the story is that they've only found three bodies, at least so far. Suspected mob hits aside, I'd have expected more random drowning victims whose bodies had never been recovered to have been found by now.

Jump to post"my friends say" is about as useful an argument as "both sides do it". It is second hand information, which can not be used. Gay men are still shunned and persecuted in right wing areas. Let's not talk about "your friends" and what "your friends" say. Let's l...

Jump to postConversely, there are those who intentionally drive to where protests are happening and run people down and make excuses. "I didn't know there was a protest" or "I had the light" or some BS excuse. Like N583JB said, the key word is "unintentionally". It's pretty obviou...

Jump to postHmmm... I tried RainX wipers when I lived in Savannah, where it rains very hard very frequently but rarely for more than 5 or 10 minutes at a time, not unlike rapidly turning a faucet in the sky all the way open then all the way closed again several times a day, and they didn't work well at all when...

Of course Brits please feel free to correct me on this if I'm wrong, but from what I've seen private residences in the UK, whether individual buildings or apartments/flats, tend to be heated by radiators rather than by forced air ventilation systems.
