Maybe they hope Finland isn’t ready for the new age of drone warfare.

Yeah that’s why I wonder if there are regional differences. E.g sport vs lead climbing.

Highball boulders are pretty unsafe if you fall near the top. This is why climbers will top rope to figure out all the moves first. This might be true of short outdoor boulders as well just to save effort.

Then there are multi story bouldering walls where you fall onto a ramp. This type of wall will be taller than some rope walls.

Is this a UK thing? Rock climbing here in the US refers to all of it. And usually a gym with rope climbing will usually have a bouldering area. I don’t think I’ve been to a rope gym that didn’t have bouldering… hmmm maybe one small gym in Taiwan, but everywhere else either only had bouldering or had both.

And then where do you draw the line with highballs and non-rope soloing?

Who uses that definition? Bouldering is just a subset of rock climbing. It’s not even super black and white, since highball and free soloing exist.

What’s the difference between bouldering and rock climbing?

Wouldn’t this be totally dependent upon hull design? I don’t think tall ships are designed this way.

Note that it will warp further when you get it home since Home Depot wood is unlikely to be fully dried and the environment in your home will be different as well.

You’ll need to wait a couple of weeks to see what shape the wood settles into. If you try to build something now it might end up warping after construction.

Even if you’re working with S4S lumber you still need to let it acclimate and then finish milling it if you really need very square pieces.

It’s just extra information. Not an attack or disagreement.

Track saw and climbing shoes.

JPEG also reduces color depth as it’s first step but just in a smarter way. RGB is converted into YCbCr.

Wait a 747? Isn’t the current Air Force 1 already a 747? I thought it’d at least be a chonky A380 or something.

Yeah maybe since they are kind of hiding some of the war costs. But it’s definitely less than what Ukraine is spending.

I’d argue at least a number of the belligerents need to have switched to a war economy and then simultaneously span multiple continents.

Maybe only Ukraine right now is in a war economy?

Yeah they caused the problem but they won’t be able to solve it at this point. It’s not like they could just go and redraw the lines.

There’s a video rental shop in Houston. Don’t understand how they’ve stayed in business for so long.

By that definition, it can’t be exactly 7 then either. 10^-7 is just an estimate that we’ve agreed works fine. To my knowledge we haven’t really tried to improve this accuracy either?

Also I’m pretty sure it’s only coincidentally 7. The calculation for pH isn’t based on any property of water.

Use an attosecond laser and hit it with a petawatt!

I think they meant the failed attempt at using it to rescue hostages.
