    Guns don't kill people. People who say "Guns don't kill people", kill people. With guns.

    Well, if you take the vaccine, you get poisoned. So clearly you can't take the vaccine. And if you don't take the vaccine, you risk a potentially deadly disease, so clearly you must take the vaccine. Kind of like drinking the wine from the goblet.

    Those wacky nanoparticles are showing up all over. First there was nanothermite in the Twin Towers, then there were nanobots in the vaccine - now there are nanoparticles in the virus! It's like they know to get inside of anything that conspiracy nuts are worried about.

    It's all part of the plan. Have you received your bidenbucks yet? It's almost like the party of personal responsibility are nothing of the sort.

    Even at flatter angles, most wingsuits should have no issue keeping the legwing inflated. Flutter/Lack of pressure sometimes is just a suit issue, with the intlet not doing its job in keeping the wing pressurized..

    - 18 year term limit. - POTUS gets to appoint a new justice every 2 years. - Senate has 120 days to act on an appointment. If it does not act, appointment is done automatically without them. Every POTUS term gets 2 appointments. No more McConnell fucking over an appointment.

    With hundreds of thousands of people dead, and thousands dying every day, despite economy-crippling lockdowns, I think it was a good motivator that focused people's minds.

    Less than half of those kids can even get vaccinated, since vaccines for under-12 kids are not approved yet. Thus the higher rates. And no, "a lot" did not have COVID already. So far there have been about 43 million reported COVID cases in the US. Even if that is underreported by a factor of 2, that means only about 25% of the US has had a COVID infection at some point. Far less than half. We are seeing a rise in child infections/hospitalizations because: 1) Delta is far more infectious than earlier strains and more kids are getting infected 2) Most kids are not eligible for a vaccination 3) Kids have become the latest political lever, and many republicans are going to great lengths to ensure that attempts to protect them from COVID fail.

    It is good enough that if everyone would get vaccinated the R number would drop low enough that the virus would disappear before long. As far a I know no vaccine is 100% effective on an individual basis. Several have been 100% effective in a society. But some people are too stupid and/or selfish to understand what is really a simple thing.

    If you record GPS data somewhere you may try Dashware (http://www.dashware.net/dashware-download/) - it's free and can support multiple GPS formats. You can even build your own gauges. I used it for overlaying GoPro's GPS data, although it was tricky and required first exporting the data from the video file via https://goprotelemetryextractor.com/free/# and then linking it back in the app. App's development has been discontinued in 2015, it still works, but it's not always user-firendly. Another bummer GoPro is slow to pick up GPS signal once it starts recording, so you may have data recorded starting from the middle of the jump For basic stats you may use GoPro's moble app and simply put one of stickers they offer (but those are basic, unlike fully custom ones in Dashware) GoPro 6 and later all have this feature enabled by default

    The difference between the original Havok and Havok Carve2 is minimal really. When my wife and I first got to the tunnel in Stockholm there were people flying all iterations of the suit. My wife still has an early model Havok that she uses. The difference is the Havok carve 2 stayed inflated slightly better through transitions. But unless you're a world class competitor you probably won't even notice. That is probably what the difference will be like with the carve 21. The thing that makes a Havok a Havok is the planform, which I don't think they touched since pretty much getting it right with the original.

    Did the author say they were flying a 135---and that it was the smallest canopy they'd ever flown---and their reserve was a 126? Ummm, isn't that a big no-no? Or am I trippin?

    DRP’s are hard. Freefall is easier — honest! Take It from someone who also did more than the minimum of DRP’s. Does your instructor have specific suggestions to improve it? Dudeman is right, this discussion is really between you and the instructor(s) at your dropzone. Sometimes a different instructor can help. If you’re at all close to a wind tunnel, that might ease one piece Of our anxiety. You’re clearly motivated — wonderful! Wendy P.
