If you were human you would appreciate the rare sight of getting to watch $220k fall out of the sky and explode.

Or maybe that's just an American thing.

I appreciate the rare sight

I still lament it

Seriously, I thought robots were good at chess.

exactly

I'm a terrible chess player

There was a good story. A millionaire had a Daughter and for her 18th Birthday she wanted a Humvee

SO he got her one.

She was shocked at how slow it was

cus it's doesn't need to go faster than a Tankl

It's a Military Vechicle not a status symbol you dumb cunt

I have no idea how they use Humvees in the field but wouldn't it make sense for it to still be faster than a tank?

For moving personnel fast between established sectors

like if you have a few forward bases

and you want to mobilize people between them fast

maybe it has to do with keeping costs down, but i don't know @Deleted User

alright

@M4Gunner that's enough to mobilize officers and field commanders

or key field operatives

You have smaller Jeeps for Recon that are faster. Humvees stick with the Tanks

Well google says Humvees are in fact faster than Tanks though

They do about 55, take the armour off it'll do 70ish

slowly

Humvee was designed to traverse a wide variety of terrain & be mechanically simple. It was also built by the lowest bidder.

There were people sitting on top a a Rocket thinking, one thing and one thing only. I'm about to go the Moon and every component some 100,000 different ones

WAS BUILT BY THE LOWEST BIDDER

Well not necessarily lowest bidder, lowest bidder who lobbied the right people.

Lowest bidder doesn't necessarily mean poor workmanship. Sure as hell implies it though.

Yes.

And poor work is breach of contract.

ello

also a bigger company can afford to bid lower, so you still might be getting the best option even if it is the cheapest

Space travel is probably safer than air travel, just even more spectacular when it does fail than even an air disaster.

lol

Moon Machines is one of my favorite documentaries about the Apollo program. Broo reminded me of it.
