So you must be a troll then. Someone gave you an exact link to what you want.

Last time I checked the definition of these things they were clearly separat. Things change fast today, seemingly.

And you are telling me those are less flexible than tungsten carbide? They are rubber in comparison. Young's modulus for WC is 550 GPa. Granite is about 70 GPa and concrete about 30 GPa. Oh, steel is at 200 GPa.

So what is the actual reason you see metal flexing when it is actually far harder to flex it?

1. Much smaller cross section or specifically second moment of area while very long.
2. Nothing, there is only that one reason really. Things get very easy to bend once they get thin and long.

The metal portions do swing a bit but that's normal since metal naturally is flexible.

What is not flexible? There are springs made from tungsten carbide.

What would not be like that? Nidal Hasan did it pretty much like that prior to his 2009 Fort Hood shooting?

Mate, the only thing missing from that list to also check far right would be extreme conservatism. No idea how much China is conservative and how much that matters compared to other things. It would be like death valley in a different country.

Ah, so what is the incentive to develop complex things when anyone can just copy it?

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement,[1][2][3] characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

Far right? Hm, maybe not. Otherwise: Check, check, quasi-check, check, check, check, ...

What a terrible reply.

Who even reads it after 2 hours? I would assume that easily more than 90 % have, at that point, been here.

I am aware that we can detect IR with sensors....? But there are non that illuminate the planet and look for that reflection with a camera.

night vision, which uses infrared light to illuminate a scene that’s not visible to the naked eye.

I want to see that satellite with it's massive IR device. Ha!
