Is this just an America thing?

Only found out about it recently and it just seems bonkers, like in what state of mind do you have to be to think you can just wish away the laws of the country.

Nowt new here, Putin doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. If it takes the entire population of Russia that's a rice he's willing to pay to be in power, he knows the moment he's not at the top he's dead.

Ahh the good old days when you could just fuck waste off into any old place with zero thought.

Would a perfectly flat, tight sail on a boat be more efficient than a sail like we all know? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's completely my ignorance that i didn't think of a sail as an aerofoil, in my lightbulb moment my brain thought, "fabric catch wind" in a very neanderthal voice.

I really appreciate everyone's comments however i think with yours the nail is sufficiently hit on its head.

Appreciate all your time 🙂

Okay hear me out and this may sound like the ramblings of a lune but i just thought the following.

Surely a perfectly flat tight sail would more effectively convert wind energy into forward momentum rather than a full sail which would first have the wind hit it at a slight angle pushing the sail in that direction rather than perfectly straight forward.

I realise there are practicalities in operating a very high tension sheet but this lives purely in the hypothetical realm.

Does this make sense or have i been drinking drain cleaner again.

folders for communities? (lemmy.world)

Any chance of folders for the subscribed communities, id like to sort the communities into sub folders so when I'm looking for interests i can look in a folder for all of those, for example i sub to lots of Ukrainian communities and would like to see them all in one folder rather than going up and down the communities list.

Anyone else ?
