I wonder how many young people in their 20s are getting exposed and trained on how to maintain these things?

In WWI many airplane engines seemed to work like that. I never understood why, it would seem that cooling is not that important. Between airplane forward motion and propeller wash you would think that there would be plenty of airflow. By WWII those engines had all become stationary with the crankshaft rotating and they have sufficient cooling, at least the ones with only a few rows of cylinders. These were called radial engines, I don't know if that term still applies to the WWI engines.<simplified> Crankshaft bolts to the firewall. The entire engine spins to assist with cooling. So, what we call a 'rotary' engine (like an RX-7) should more correctly be called a Wankel. </>
I was in the Denver Wings over the Rockies museum with my daughter and they had one of the fixed crankshaft engines on display. I was asking the mechanics there if they knew why the engines were one way then the other and they didn't know.
There are a lot of misinformed karens in this world.Things I could say but holding back are gold but hey I'm in a sweet kind of a mood
Can’t go wrong with posting reliable information in a thread that doesn’t hijack others. At this point, I haven’t seen a new argument against EVs in well over a year (maybe 2). Everything I see is a rerun that was covered years ago.There are a lot of misinformed karens in this world.
First paragraph of that link:The Porsche Mission X video doesn't mention that it's an electric drive hypercar.

Okay, this may be a bit of self promotion, but, at the same time, there might be some here who find this interesting.
A couple of weeks ago, I visited Israel. While there, three of us walked the length of Hezekiah's tunnel, a channel hewn through solid rock underneath Jerusalem sometime around 800 BCE (presumably on the order of King Hezekiah) in order to access all the water of the Gihon spring inside the walls of the city of Jerusalem and deny access to any of that water to Assyrians who would soon besiege the city.
When I went through the tunnel, I carried a GoPro. When I got home, I edited the raw video and added commentary.
You can find that video here:
It *was* dark, but I didn't see any.Cool. No golems?
Fishing, anyone?
A minute of your time for some beautiful footwork.
If I could have only been in that boat. What species of fish were they?
In Australia? I didn't know that they were in that area of the planet.Salmon, apparently.
