Boeing issues are plane side of the business for sure.

From little I'm aware, part of why Boeing sought a partnership with Lockheed is because they weren't sure what to do with the aerospace pieces of McDonell Douglas and Rockwell they acquired in the late 90's. Meaning most of the "Boeing" contribution to ULA came from other companies already serving NASA for decades. Mainly with the Delta rockets.

None of that was core Boeing business. Which is why ULA has been run by Lockheed people the whole time it has existed. Current ULA CEO Tory Bruno was an engineer at Lockheed for a long time before working his way up to where he's at now. Something like 30 years in the industry.

Sure but the rocket being used is Atlas V which is from the Lockheed half of the partnership.

Delta series is what Boeing brought to the ULA partnership. Which they acquired from buying out McDonnell Douglas.

Boeing didn't design either rocket ULA has flown.

ULA is a whole separate entity though. It's not part of Boeing or Lockheed directly. And even then it's main engineering teams are former Lockheed and Rockwell people. There is very little about ULA that's truly Boeing. And Atlas V is based off Atlas III which Lockheed made on their own before ULA became a thing in 2006.

Also not long enough. But Belgium probably wouldn't have appreciated France building across their border too.

Whole different division of Boeing. With the same level of NASA collaboration going on as SpaceX had for the crewed version of Dragon.

The main explody part is an Atlas V rocket built by ULA. Same rocket that did all these launches: https://www.ulalaunch.com/missions/-in-category/categories/rocket/atlas-5

Sadly the launch was scrubbed. Because ULA noticed something they didn't like with a valve on the 2nd stage of their rocket.

Hopefully something ULA can fix without having to take the whole stack apart.

Probably not much. The capsule has already been tested and flown to ISS without a crew. This is finally the first crewed test. It was supposed to happen I think last year. But NASA tore down the capsule one more time and asked Boeing to change out some wiring harness shielding just to be extra careful about high oxygen environment fire potential.

ULA's Atlas rocket which is taking the capsule up has been successful in every launch as far as I've paid attention back to 2007 when it first started being used. Including I believe all of the Mars rover missions.

I get all the hurr durr Boeing jokes are going to happen. But that's commercial airline Boeing. Not MIC/NASA Boeing. And ULA has a fantastic track record. I'm going to be sad if Blue Origin really does end up buying them out.

KMag. He even got a 10 second penalty for this.

So to answer your question, no you cannot just dive at a corner like that from behind. Had they been alongside it would have been Logan's fault. But KMag was trailing by enough it was on him to back out of that bad idea for an attempted pass.

This sounds almost exactly like what happened to a colleague of mine last year. Guy aspirated some food. Lead to an infection. Turned into pneumonia. Died.

All that happened within 1 week.

Run fiber with the new pipes too.

Honestly though this is one car system Tesla might be able to get close to having no team of their own.

The brakes on all their cars are designed and supplied by Brembo. Tesla certainly has some people making sure they'll fit. But that step is only needed when a new model is being designed. Once the model launches Tesla can make a quality person (lol) work with Brembo on any revisions.

Edit - if not clear I agree with you and am wondering if The Onion is predicting the future again.

John was also in the process of deposition for an appeal to a case he already lost in 2019. If Boeing wanted to kill him they would have before the 2019 trial.

And by the time he complained in 2017, both 787 and 737 Max that he was spilling details on had been flying for years. The FAA investigated and found a decent chunk of the issues had already been addressed. So it wasn't even timely information by the time John spoke up.

Because it works.

Welcome to Lemmy. Lots of terminally online idiots here. I was hoping this place would be like old Reddit. Turns out it's just as bad as current Reddit without as many bots.

I've been sailing for their games and Ubisoft for years. Ubisoft's PC launch of AC2 was so bad I've refused to buy anything that requires Uplay.

There were tons of people (myself included) who couldn't play AC2 for 3 weeks at launch because Uplay account issues. Then it required you to be online to save progress. But their own servers kept going down without warning or any kind of indication. I played the opening couple hours of AC2 at least 3 times because of my saves being lost. Which at that point was a month after release. And I gave up. Never finished.

So fuck EA and Ubisoft. The alternative options to acquire their games end up being the better user experience.

They did. But they all still need Origin. After you launch through Steam you get kicked over to Origin to also login there.

Yes. That's why I'm still not buying EA games to this day. Or Ubisoft for that matter.

Should GM be responsible for a tire on your car going flat after you've owned it for 15 years?

Shitting on Boeing is getting clicks. So the news keeps reporting on every bit of anything they can find related to them. The incident rate isn't going up. At the same time there have been a few issues with Airbus planes but that's not getting engagement as much so the news isn't focusing on them.

lol I was expecting either New Zealand to be flipped to dangerous or removed.
