There have been cases of engine rotor badness during takeoff roll, at least. Apparently the Pentagon is looking at replacing its part suppliers for the F-35, which indicates some issues beyond mission fit.

which one was actively cutting off oxygen to the pilots? F22?

Both, because they all used the same faulty system: https://news.usni.org/2017/06/28/report-congress-breath-military-aircraft-oxygen-issues

F22? the best bit about this one is that when your oxygen is cut off you start acting like a drunk and think everything is a-okay so unless something starts beeping real loud you're not going to realize how hosed you are without it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcvkjfG4A_M

We visited some friends on Heimaey a few years ago and they're starting to unearth a fresh batch of houses that were under the meters of tephra fall from the eruption- they didn't use much wood in construction so many of them are still intact with pictures still hanging on the walls and original paint on the outside.

SniperWoreConverse posted:why couldn't you poke a few tiny holes into the part of the chamber that has gas (assuming it's not literally 100% magma), and run some turbines off the high pressure gas that comes out? You might even be able to burn it afterwards to get even more power! The pressure inside a magma chamber can push liquid rock through kilometer-thick layers of solid rock to get to the surface. And you're introducing a weak point. The gases that are released are dissolved into the magma itself and will come out as soon as the pressure is released. As soon as you hit the chamber with your drill, it's coming up no matter what you have on top of it.

The gases that are released are dissolved into the magma itself and will come out as soon as the pressure is released.

I was hoping there'd be enough gas to form a pocket you could tap with like a 1/64" bit, it's probably pretty easy to drill a hole that diameter as deep as you need no problem. There has to be some kinda way to harness the completely insane power of geology, but it's probably something like "find a less dangerous spot and put in a regular geothermal plant." Not related but what if someone built a dome over the crater and applied low pressure to help draw off gas or whatever? It would start bubbling and roiling, right? Would this make it more or less likely to erupt in the future? What would it do to the viscosity of the lava?
