That was my conclusion as well.

Could one of you cite the reg in question?

I know this is old, but since it popped up, I'm pretty sure it's technically legal to jump a BASE rig from an aircraft, if you read the FARs closely.

Long, long ago when I paid the deposit on my new Vector3 my plan was to get a V310 which would have been a "full fit" with my current main, a Katana 150, and I ordered a brand new OP143 (standard fit) Which I now have in my hands. My thinking was: 143 seems like a comfortable size reserve for myself with my current experience on the KA150 Optimum is a newer design and maybe flies better? I've never flown a reserve. Who knows what the market will look like if/when I sell this rig, but right now it seems favorable to have an OP in it. Everything else being equal, standard fit seems preferable over full fit especially since I'll be packing it myself as I work toward my rigger's ticket don't want my brand new custom rig to look "pregnant" UPT cautions against using both a full fitting main and full fitting reserve Today I finalized my order and ended up choosing the V308 to fit my next main, a KA135, with a scheduled completion date still months away. Like the V310, the V308 is a standard fit for the PDR126. However, the OP143 is listed as a full fit. In addition to the factors above: Isn't an OP143 supposed to have about the same pack volume as a PDR126? That's what PD says, and even UPT usually has them together in the same column. This is confusing, and I may ask UPT about it. It's a seller's market for OPs and I should get full retail for mine or close to it, and pick up a used PDR for cheap. There's even a really old one (1996, 30 packs) listed right now for only $500. That difference would cover the cost of a new Cypress, which I'm going to need at least one of, or two if I want to keep my current rig active! 126 sounds a bit uncomfortable to me now, but that might change after I start jumping the KA135. Whichever route I go, I plan to demo my chosen reserve as a main and put a bunch of jumps on it, maybe even before the KA135. What are your thoughts?

Exactly what I was about to say. Additionally, the light weight is better for performance of the PC. It's the Sky Snatch and it is indeed made by Squirrel. I have one in my rig now and I really like it. Really cool vented toroidal design and it's even open source!

Wow. Here's another reason why a senate conviction would be worthwhile even after the inauguration. edit: After reading the article, it doesn't sound like an actual entitlement and more of a voluntary tradition.

And you repeated it here. Now defend it.

So instead of responding to my request for you to reference some of what you claim is "overwhelming evidence", you post this nonsense instead. What is your purpose here? You aren't going to change anyone's mind. You aren't going to make anyone angry. You just look stupid.

[citation needed] Or maybe liberals are just better educated than conservatives?

It's more than a point of view or good perspective, it's been an accepted medical fact for quite some time. Especially alarming is the prevalence of this damage. IIRC the studies I saw on heart and brain inflammation showed it in a *majority* of cases, even mild or asymptomatic. That's horrifying. What instructions are needed? The people doing the injections know how to do them. I haven't heard of that being a problem. Re: who to vaccinate first, I think it makes sense to start with frontline healthcare and the vulnerable, but I don't have strong feelings on that compared to how I feel about letting doses expire because they can't find enough people who are currently eligible...

From the CNN article: Any doses being discarded is unacceptable, but this is somewhat reassuring.

Justin Cave is not Rosanne Boyland's husband. The post that said so was incorrect.

That's a world of difference, and you are a liar. Why should we believe you now? Maybe your wife really does have the position you say, but I'm sure you're either (1) exaggerating how close she is to the information you're reporting, (2) exaggerating your own knowledge of this information, or (3) just saying whatever bullshit you want and using her as a blanket, unverifiable reference. Everything you've said so far has been shown to be false by actual verifiable references. So I lean toward #3.

That's not what "first-hand" means. That's "second-hand" at best. Liar.

This is factually incorrect. Pfizer and BioNTech started working on their vaccine long before warp speed or really any attention from the US Government.

From context, clearly he's talking about development. I don't know how anyone could take from this statement that Pfizer is giving the doses away for free. Note the word "use" that you choose to interpret as "receive".

So what? What can he do with those? My understanding is that having the codes is necessary but insufficient for a launch. He doesn't just punch them into an app on his phone--he would need help. Help he isn't going to get. The system is not on a hair-trigger. If it were, the close calls we've had would have gone much differently. At one time, the code was all zeroes. They must believe in their other security measures and processes.

He can't use those without help though, right? I'm not too worried.

Why?

No, that's pretty obvious--I don't take issue with the name of the award. I think calling Moderna "perpetrators of [one of] the ten most egregious examples of profiteering and dysfunction in health care", from the information presented in the article, which I outlined in my initial response, is hyperbolic.

I'm still listening. Go on...

So you're not going to tell me why I'm wrong--you're just going to mock me?

As both a computer engineer and medical doctor, I know a fair bit about those topics. I'm not defending Moderna, but I don't see how the comparison to Shkreli is anything but hyperbolic. You have my attention. Tell me why I'm wrong.

You're right in that I misunderstood part of that page that was about stolen information and not about intential disclosure. However, I still don't see how it would be anywhere near a violation: I'm just not seeing it. Where's the violation?
