It's a good as hell solution though. My phone is already a perfectly good computer that can play up to PS1 era old games and pretty much all modern mobile ones, why should I buy another?
I'M SORRY, BZZZZZ
THE GENOCIDE WILL STOP
We're gonna have big beautiful satellites shooting ICBMs down with lasers. It's gonna be a war in the stars, folks, and we're gonna have our big beautiful space force doing it all.
Every season of Survivor I hope for the contestants to vote off Jeff Probst because his challenges exist only to divide the tribe and create conflict.
look at slot machines
ugh I'd rather not
It can reach speeds of 81 mph (130 km/h), with a cruising speed of 62 mph (100 km/h).
mmmkay. That's a significant time save when you can go as the crow flies, but you'll be limited in destinations by the availability of helicopter landing pads.
the aircraft can carry up to 485 pounds (220 kg)
There are only 2 seats, so 2 people and a bag each.
these air taxis can cover 22 miles (35 km) or 21 minutes of flight on a single charge
That's really not very much. Blade, a company that runs helicopter taxis in places like New York, has typical "short flight" distances of 10-100 miles, so one of these can take the shortest viable route once (bringing passengers with it on the trip back if it's lucky) before needing to recharge.
China is a fair bit denser than North America so there may be more of these short distance routes available, but dotting the cityscape with helicopter landing pads in order to take advantage of them would be a big ask and might not be possible.
The vehicle’s battery takes approximately two hours to fully charge.
21 minutes of flight per two hours of charging. Loading and unloading passengers will probably take time as well, so maybe we can call this 45 minutes of "operational time" per aircraft per two hours spent charging. That's a lot of idle time that your passengers will have to foot the bill for in order for your operation to be viable.
"flip flop don" sounds good to me, it's three punchy syllables .
When he comes back again with the official quote, the price is TWO GRAND HIGHER than the online price
I am 100% convinced that somewhere there is some kind of data that says that this is the optimal number you can tack onto a car's price that most people will agree to pay unexpectedly. I believe this because this exact same thing has happened to me three times, each time with a different given excuse, and each time for the exact same $2k price bump.
Anyway sucks to suck the only thing a person can do is walk away from a bad deal, glad they backed down for you all three times this has happened to me I had to go home after spending multiple hours at the dealership.
One saw mill worker got injured one time.
Still, I think once you've done the tree spiking, it's necessary to tell people for the deterrence to function. Otherwise you end up like the Soviets at the end of Dr Strangelove where they have the ultimate nuclear deterrent but America doesn't know about it.
I got forced to do a thing where they warned me about Chinese spies when I was a military dependent. the paranoia is real (and not necessarily unfounded China's got some top tier operators)
same but it's dog hair
