Are you trying to make him look cool?

But the air is not contained on the boat, it is pushed away from the boat after hitting the sail. Since that air has mass it will produce and equal force pushing on the sail, aka thrust.

A jet engine with deployed reverses is just a fan mounted on the plane pushing against the plane but it works just fine.

A sail is just a very inefficient deflector of air, but the principle is the same.

But it does. It just works even better without the sail.

No, it’s not completely ineffective, just very ineffective.

If you blow enough air at a sufficient sturdy sail you can absolutely generate trust from the airflow the sail deflects.

But you’ll be more efficient if you remove the sail and just point the fan in the other direction.

You’d be even more efficient if you put the fan under the boat and push the water instead of the air.

The thing about air boats is that they don’t need sails.

Well yeah, because the sail is not needed at all, you just need the fan.

A modern commercial jet engine is just a very powerful fan anyway. You move air backward, you move forwards. Works just as well on boat as on a plane.

The sail would just be a very inefficient reverser.

You might want to check your physics because that’s pretty much exactly how a propeller works …

And both work, the sail is just very inefficient as a trust reverser. Just remove the sail and use the fan directly. You can rotate the entire fan if you want to reverse.

A fan on a sailboat totally works. You just have to aim the airflow behind the boat and not at the sail. Like those swamp boats in Florida.

Wholesome youtube moment!

You really shouldn’t give drugs to your pets.

A wise man* once said “If you do a shitty job rolling you’ll end up with a shitty joint”.

*His last name was literally “Wise”.

True, but that’s still no reason to hack their supermarkets.

I think you’re missing the point. Guns primary purpose is to inflict harm. Drugs primary purpose is fun, the harm is a side effect.

Guns are also pretty popular for suicide when available.

By Artist and Album, then let Plex handle the rest. It’s pretty much the standard format for torrents so 95% is just drop in and done. I occasionally do youtube DLs for very recent releases but those I rename and sort by hand.

That was pretty much standard for a while.

AAJC for Asians.

NNAAC for Arabs.

Can we move it up a bit so I don’t have to plan for retirement?
