Here's hank's pic, apparently from a website called "Madness Hub". Nothing that a little superglue won't take care of.
And a shot of what's left of the engine:
Looks like the pilots earned their pay on that one.
OK, so I had to "duckduckgo" lmgtfy. Got that part.
No clue as to the "h" or the "F1:".
Standard English would be greatly appreciated here to avoid constant lmgtfy.

Whatever you folks are experiencing is something quite new. I've used Schwab for many years and never had any issues until recently, when logging in became flaky. It's been better, at least from here, in the last couple of weeks.
I experienced simi…
Exactly why I keep a few in the pickup. As far as airplanes, I would have been very happy to have had one to wear the last time that we flew to France. The jerk behind me coughed and hacked all over me for 5000 miles, and I spent the first two weeks…
Ignoring the representational nature of the commodity, isn't the real question the actual value of any of this stuff?
If no one other than companies of questionable value and dubious future will compensate us to borrow those small pieces of green p…
"When fiat [regular] currency has negative real interest, only a fool wouldn't look elsewhere. Bitcoin is almost as BS as fiat money. The key word is 'almost'."

OK, so let me see if I understand this correctly. A small piece of cardboard with the picture of a dead baseball player is believed to be worth 215,000 small pieces of green paper with the picture of a dead president. But then a few weeks later it's…
Yes, typical ultra macho right-wing crap. "Every man for himself". "No govenment interference!"
From a Texas town mayor, yesterday:
“No one owes you or your family anything; nor is it the local government’s responsibility to support you during tr…
Here's a bit of additional information excerpted from a recent article in the WSJ:

Sometimes. For fifty years I've been trying to get my wife to address me as something along the lines of "lord" or "king" (not "messiah", though) and the facts have certainly countered my efforts. Then again, she's not religious either, so maybe you…
With respect to those individuals with severe preexisting conditions it seems fair to say that getting the vaccine offers much better odds than getting Covid.
I note that some information sources consider muscle soreness at site of injection (arm muscle) to be a "side effect". Since that always happens to me for a day or so with any injection I didn't even think of it as unusual. No big deal.
Don't get me started about religions. Why people need a religious/cult leader to tell them how and what to think is beyond me. Maybe the preferences section of their mind's OS doesn't have the "Prefer to think for myself" option enabled.
Perhaps be…

@johnN: A search of the "Up-to-date" link which you have provided shows none of the information which you have listed.
However, judging from the appearance, that information seems likely to have been derived from a reasonable source. Can you please…
Purely anecdotal, of course, but no side effects at all for my wife and me after Moderna shot #1.
There was a reported incident down in San Diego where several people had reactions immediately after inoculation. The vaccine administration was temp…
