A tired crew, a difficult approach, bad weather, and outdated equipment send a Boeing 737 cargo plane plunging into a suburban neighborhood in central England, all in my latest article: admiralcloudberg.medium.com/a-long-night...

That's a conclusion I'm careful with, though I agree with the one you replied to. After all, for all the stupidity our lives have incurred from being always online, and for all the stress we get from universal global news always being available, we also readily know things now or look them up.

This makes sense, as that's the style of solution that'll have been talked about the most in the training data, as it elicited the most discussion. Even if that discussion was just a lot of 😱 reactions on StackOverflow, basically. 😅

Eh, in 36 years of dishwashering, this has not become an issue. Pans and pots get replaced for other reasons long before it good be, but even my cheap old Ikea pans are still perfectly fine after years and years and years of nothing but dishwasher cleaning.

If you know some Swedish, I can very much recommend the original. It was surprisingly easy to read for being a full novel not some cut-down version for beginners. Can't say much about the English translation but I very much enjoyed the book! 👍

Or even better, don't pray at all and instead solve your own issues. Like, pulling your head out of your ass just needs some muscles, not prayer.

Sure, in a hypthetical carastrophic event an impact would affect another planet in such a way that they would then affect us. But barring apocalyptic movie-like scenarios, the possibility is quite zero.

I went the other way and just have Ubuntu (or on my private PC, Kali) as a WSL installation on my Windows. Means I can use my mostly-windows-tools for daily work use (respectively for gaming), and still enjoy all the Linux stuff I personally use on top of that. Not ideally, but eh, works.

Yeah other than like *all* the science, but way way way down in the basics of how to avoid spread of any contaminant. But yeah other than that, no scientific or empirical data supports it.

That's impossible to describe properly in words to someone who needs to ask as they lack IRL dating experience. And when you got that, the "vibe" you latch onto when evaluating someone is trivial to understand. Online dating *exclusively* is toxic in a lot of ways, tbh.

Considering what an absolutely crazy number of clicks this will generate, I'm not sure we can argue it was terrible judgement. It's a capitalist business after all, not news. It likes to pretend it's news, but few modern news sites are.

Because the producing companies are publicly traded, and hence the actual customers are the shareholders who only care whether the line goes up. This is important. In fact the content of any movie is irrelevant, only it's cost vs income matters.

Yeah, you're replying to serious discussions about solving actual problems with, well, memes. So if you're wondering why you're not being taken serious, that might just be it.

No it's what people who actually want to solve issues instead of just lament them say. 100%-or-0% just leads to 0%. And in fact it's the point why people argue that way to begin with: They can feel high and mighty for demanding the 100%, but can sit around cushy doing 0%.

I mathed it a bit and honestly? I'll probably skip DC charging wiring entirely when I get one. I don't use the car every day, so it has 36+ hours to slowly trickle charge on AC since I can just leave it connected when home.
