Specifically, any one party shouldn’t be able to take advantage of a momentary shift in power due to an assassination of a member in the other party.

Many Avro engineers went south to work at NASA for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs.

Had Avro Canada not folded and we didn’t have the brain drain to the US, who knows what kind of aerospace powerhouse we would be right now.

Trying to get across any intersection diagonally on foot is super annoying when you need to wait for the signal in both directions.

My 40 year old Dutch omafiets. I bought it used two years ago and spent the time swapping and upgrading nearly every component.

Aliasing is a byproduct of trying to draw a curved line across square pixels. It’s a deficiency of raster graphics, not the fault of the game.

There needs to be enough of the axle showing for the bell crank to bite. What I had to do on my wheel was remove the washers from the axle so the axle nut could be tightened enough and expose more of the axle to the bell crank.
