    It’s actually because the thing that makes you make those faces is the acceleration, not the speed.

    All three reference frames shown are accelerated, non inertial frames. But the first two have “fictitious” centrifugal accelerations somewhere around 0.5-2.5 g. The third frame has a detectable centrifugal acceleration, but it’s like 0.003 g or something, and can be lumped in with gravity for many types of problems.





  • And ICE right now doesn’t take orders from Trump… They take orders from that other guy. The ACLU knows this because they understand constitutional law. They’re not looking for the concrete deportation plans; they want general background on what the infrastructure looks like, so they can file challenges with the correct factual details quickly if shit does kick off.

    For example, if they get the tail numbers on all the planes they can track them in flightaware or in a worse case by recruiting spotters. If they want to file a lawsuit, they’re gonna need to know some details about who got sent where and when.
