@CptJacobson I'll say this now, I don't approve of this kind of point making even if it's to prove that you're being bullied by others. Like I said in the forum post, let the mods handle it so the situation doesn't escalate, which through this post it evidently has done.
.
@Blue0Bull while I agree with you in that it's wrong to continue to bring drama here from the website, I can't deny the fact I'm disappointed that you or anyone else here didn't tag a moderator. This is obviously quite concerning to me. Not to mention, the language you used was quite colourful and seemed motivated by anger which again is discouraged on the site.
.
Anyway, since your both here I want to know what you both want out of this. So if you could both write up a sentence or more on how you think the situation should be handled, I'd be grateful.
@Mmdben Maybe, maybe not. I haven't actually started another large build yet. I do however have a few pre-made things I can upload that are very large.
megapixels on a camera don't really mean a lot, they refer to the size of the image and how detailed it is. Anything beyond about 10 megapixels isn't really needed for the average user and it's only necessary if you often crop images or do a lot of photo editing.
.
I have a huawei p30 pro and it actually downplays the pixel count by default to 10MP. And as we know (or any tech savvy person knows) the P30 Pro is one of the best phones for photography out there at the moment (one of the reasons I bought it).
.
The point is, for mobile phones in particular, it heavily depends on the software the process the images to create the final "photo" rather than how many megapixels the sensor uses. Samsung is obviously quite good with their software and thus they're generally well known for setting the standard for photo quality.
.
Oppo is a bit of a wild card. And you probably will get a bit for your money in terms of hardware. Generally smaller companies lack the resources to keep their products updated and supported, an issue Samsung obviously doesn't have. So while in the short run, the Oppo may be the better investment, in the long run (assuming adequate support) the S10 might prove to be longer lasting and a better investment in the long run.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad new, but this violates an agreement with Honda. Don't worry, you're not in trouble or anything, just us mods are supposed to remove anything that references the company Honda.
.
However, I'll be cheeky and suggest you re upload with a slight tweak from the original and give it a slightly different name that doesn't reference Honda.

Hey simpleplanes, Squirrel here.

If you splice up a bunch of videos by Michael Stevens, you get some perfectly normal content.
.
Or do you?
. Cue music
. You see with most other youtubers, you would get a normal video. But Micheal is strange. He comes from what we know as the "5th Dimension", meaning he doesn't exist in the same reality that we perceive, but instead a different one which is simultaneously both our reality and not our reality.
.
So what does this mean for us? Well, it's quite complicated, because that means we have to look into something called M theory and when you run the calculations, well it just gets weird.
.
But how weird is weird?
. Music intensifies
. Long story short, it's pretty weird, so weird that it warps space time. So what does this mean for the spliced videos of Michael?
. Music stops
. Yes, the answer is yes.
.
Michael is so weird that he even warps the answers to questions to the point where they no longer make sense. But using quantum computers we were able to correct the answer to this and this.
@TheFantasticTyphoon purchase has been declined due to the Apocalypse class sub being a highly classified technology with trade restrictions meaning purchase is only possible with close allies.

That's a stupid suggestion. Punching a friend/family member in that face and throwing their device in the bin is ridiculous for one reason.
. You have to disconnect the device from the WiFi before throwing it in the bin. Otherwise, it's still in multiplayer.
@JohnnyBoythePilot I think the F-35 is a great airframe and they made the best out of an awkward design spec for it. It's not easy designing one aircraft with three roles in mind.
.
I must admit that I'm a bit cautious about the whole afterburner thing. For every action there's an equal and opposite reaction. Meaning if you need afterburner to get you sufficient thrust to get above a Mach number, then you need it to stay there too. I imagine they use afterburner to get to the supercruise speed quicker though as I imagine it would take a while to reach such a speed one the extra drag from transonic speeds starts to take hold.
.
There are actually a surprising number of aircraft that are capable of supercruise. I'm pretty sure the English Electric Lightning was capable of achieving supercruise, so while a great bonus to the aircraft, it's not as big of an achievement as it first appears to be (although that's still a big engineering achievement).
.
I think what you're thinking about with taxiing is using extra thrust to overcome rolling friction from the tires.
@Aeromen Also notice in this image how all the "flaps/ailerons" are pointing downwards. But yes, long story short the control surfaces do behave like that on the actual SU-57. With the exception of maybe the added aileron input for yaw. I just made that up to counter the added roll of by the rudder. Also, speaking of yaw, the SU-57 doesn't have a traditional air brake, it just squashes its rudders together to create extra drag.
@Aeromen If you're referring to the flap action, I put that in to counter the downward force of the flaps.
.
The elevators on the SU-57 aren't really just just standard elevators. Firstly, they're what is called an all moving tailplane, meaning the whole surface moves instead of just one tab from the horizontal stabiliser. They're also not just elevators, they're technically elevons meaning they act as ailerons as well as elevators. The Flaps/ailerons aren't single use either, they're called flaperons meaning that the control surface acts as both a flap and an aileron.
. Here's a video showing the surfaces moving. When you look carefully you'll see that all the surfaces appear to be able to move independently from one another due to the fact that the control surfaces don't just have a single purpose. If you look at the "elevators" for example, you'll notice the far one moves up while the other one doesn't and vice versa.
@JohnnyBoythePilot The F-35 is to put it bluntly a very fat plane and fat planes produce a lot of drag. The F135 engine is an exceptional engine and provides the F-35 with a much needed boost in power and thus giving it a similar thrust to weight ratio of the Gripen.
.
However, moving at supersonic speeds gives an exponential increase in drag. All of a sudden, the engine has to work a lot harder to maintain those mach 1+ speeds. And without afterburner. Meaning the moving components and the combustion chamber are subject to higher temperatures than what the engine was originally designed for to maintain those supercruise speeds. At which point it's a bit like microwaving food. You can keep the microwave on for a duration of time, but eventually, you're going to burn the food. Its a similar case with the engine. It can keep running while it heats up, but there will eventually be a point of no return where the components start to fail.
.
Now I must admit, this is 100% speculation on my behalf. I haven't read too much into it, but to me, this seems like the most likely reason as to why the F-35 is limited to 150 miles of supercruise.
.
Edit: Afterburner is obviously done at the rear of the engine and after all the critical moving parts and thus isn't really contributing a huge amount of heat to the core of the engine.
@ChiyomiAnzai Actually, it is my best replica. It's not the best replica on the site though. In fact, it's quite minimal as far as replicas go and thus definitely not up there with the best. But I'm proud of it nonetheless and I have fun flying it around.
I've made videos before, if you do it properly, it can literally take an hour of editing to get 10 minutes worth of footage, not to mention render times. Sure, you can slap something together in windows movie maker. But, if you're using a complex video editor and adding effects, sounds, etc the time it takes dramatically increases.
.
It's a bit like the builds. Some builds are quickly slapped together, others are carefully crafted. It's just a different medium that's being produced.
Also, apologies for getting the wrong end of the stick regarding the cursing. Although, technically speaking, cursing is uttering offensive words. Calling someone a child can be and obviously was offensive, so Eternal is right.
@SledDriver was any of that really called for? I never called you anything and I'd appreciate it if you stopped calling me baby. As I said before, name calling is against site rules.
@SledDriver I mean, myself and another mod agreed that it was a form of conflict. If you have an issue with that, you're having a disagreement with half of the mod team. I mean, I'll say this now; we're not out to get you. Trust me us moderators are pretty good at damage control and looking at a situation objectively, so it's unlikely you'll be banned or something just for being you. However, it doesn't do you any favours when you start making targeted attacks on one of the mods just because you personally think they aren't qualified for the position.
.
Besides, Mod never directly stated that "child" was a curse word. He told you to stop calling each other names, which you objectively were. If I was to say "you're a baby", that would be in the same category.
@SledDriver I've had a lot of interaction with him. I've barely interacted with you and yet I'm a regular user. Take it from me, he's a nice guy. I think it's pretty harsh to judge someone based on one singular interaction. I've done questionable things, you've done questionable things, nobody's perfect. We all have off days. On top of that there are a multitude of different reasons and interpretations that occurred during your singular interaction with him. In my experience as a moderator, I can safely say there are 2 sides to every conflict and subjectively speaking, both sides are in the wrong.
.
So I kindly ask you to retract that judgement and give @Mod a chance instead of jumping to conclusions. Like I say, I'm sure there's times where you've wished people didn't jump to conclusions on you. I don't mean to be confrontational or anything, I'm simply asking you to keep and open mind.
