Imagine all that get home juice(fuel) sloshing around while your dumb ass tries to land a skyscraper perfectly vertical into a pile of dust.

The thing that kills me is you can see they intentionally had cars that went to popular destinations (como, whitebear, minnehaha, not on the map is the line to minnetonka) all in the public interest.
I don't know, seems like the whole thing was so intentional and driven by the public good.

They needed the fancier equipment (sideways facing camera/radar) on the SR-71 because they avoided flying over targets (ussr airspace) after the U2 shootdown that occurred.
The A12 needed a less robust camera as it just zoomed right over the target.

Yeah most of the SR-71 altitude and speed records were likely beat by the lighter and faster A12, but we'll probably never know as it's work was highly classified.

I think about it a lot because it entirely changed the direction of my life, and I know that guy was like "I'm gonna help this kid find some actually good music." He was a young guy. Maybe he wanted to change the world, and he really did, for me anyway.

The only answer I didn't have for him was AV. I told him ClamAV with scheduled scan and updates, with a good web blocker.
Also instructions to talk to me first before installing anything off repo.
AV is a weak point for sure, and anyone saying Linux doesnt get viruses is full of shit.
