I consistently tip my hat to the Brits for their excellent disses, slang, and swear words.

True, but I enjoyed the other content that was in this community and didn’t add it to see a nonstop flood of Archie comics. To each their own, I guess. Maybe that’s what this community wants, which is fine (just not for me).
Any more of these and I gotta abandon this community. Getting annoying and not funny.
Paraglider pilot here. A paraglider would be literally the worst way to invade/attack/terrorist-whatever any target. You need the right wind conditions to launch (or you have to have someone tow you up, but that only gets you so high); if there are no thermals, you can’t travel any kind of distance (unless your target is on a coastal ridge with onshore wind); you pretty much have to “attack” during the day (for above reasons); you move incredibly slowly (trim speed for your average wing is around 25-3mph); and you need both hands to operate the controls (I guess you could have a tandem passenger to work the weapons or whatever, but then you’re 2 people for every one weapon you have). Paramotors (paraglider plus big ass fan) makes all of this even less ideal, since you’re still very slow moving, and you’re loud.
In conclusion, this lady is a nutcase and badly needs a hobby.

I don’t work for them, but I’d recommend Jump Desktop for that. Works very well and has been out for quite some time.
How’s the scoreboard on the number of times Joe and Donnie have been caught at public events completely checked out and in dreamland?

I liked a lot of aspects of it, but after sitting in one, it is HUGE. My guess is that it’s at least as big or bigger than the EV Hummer. I wish they had one that was in similar size to the F150 of the nineties.

I also, just the other day, ran across another filter that disables the stupid shorts since I don’t care for that format or YT pushing it on me all the time. Almost usable platform now.

If you really need to be able to just drive non stop all day while the sun is out, I don’t think that’s been solved yet (would still have to stop for gas even).
