If it makes you feel any better... for some reason there are some currently in production business jets that still require crossover cables for maintenance... so they ARE still required sometimes.

When was Auto MDI-X introduced? A quick google failed to get me an answer but I remember USB being available while I still needed a crossover cable to hook up 2 switches.

I feel like I could have written this article. I'm still using the timer each time I cook but it just feels like more of a hassle than the previous version, where the switch from watch OS 8 to 9 felt like it made things better immedia

I'm going to be honest... I was slightly concerned with the amount of people who seemed to think it was legit.

Sorry to burst everyone's bubble... but if you look at the source video you can see that a large neighborhood loses power. Looks like it is just power lines going down or transformers blowing. https://twitter.com/Eyaaa

I think the issue is that the extras have to have trust in ALL of the production companies involved to not misuse that data in the future. Why pay for processing power to create a sea of extras when you have the full body from your previou

Reminds me of the poor Apple engineer who got fired after his daughter leaked a new iPhone on YouTube after visiting him at work for lunch one day. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-41801704

Just to be clear, when you say you "glided" are you saying that you ran out of fuel? Because if it did actually run out of fuel there should be a report about it somewhere and I'm really interested in finding it or why it so

Just seconding everything you are saying. We dabbled in political contributions at my workplace for a project and it was easy to get a meeting with just about anyone (except our Senators who we didn't need to try) as long as we were f

I think he is confusing it with "few people can realistically run for federal office already." As you mentioned, people love power. But there is a very, very thin slice of the population that has the ability to run for a federal

I mean, the chances of it being *not* state-funded are.... really slim, right? The risk is just... off the charts. I do understand that you said it was just a possibility it wasn't state funded though. It looks like this happened bac

Ah, you are correct. I edited my comment from "should" to "might". I can't imagine the F-35B is able to auto-rotate either. :)

The major thing is that the FAA loves to approve what someone at the FAA has already previously approved. So if you have parts of the aircraft, avionics, pilot operating manual, performance values, etc that have previously been approved

Powered-Lift just means that they aren't using their wing surfaces for lift take-off/landing but are using them for lift during normal flight. They [edit:might] be able to auto-rotate down in the case of a powerplant failure

I deal with the FAA regularly and I agree with your overall impression. The people you deal with at the bottom/middle of the organization are incredibly reliant on existing rules/wording that when something new comes up they ofte

FWIW, it sounds like she DID move with him and support him (through a non-"reasonable" request of moving to the other side of the world.) The marriage still fell apart.

Valuable lesson for all of those interns that there is more to life than business.

I think we just fundamentally agree on whether or not it is a "moral deficiency" to be racist. I believe it is a moral deficiency to treat someone differently because of their race. I don't believe it is a moral deficiency t

I may be poking the bear, but what if we stopped looking at racism as a moral thing and more of a (possibly) natural psychological occurrence? Although I think the big issue is that there isn't a definition of "racist" that e

Interesting... I've never heard of this and none of our lawyers in frivolous lawsuits have brought it up. (Although none of the cases have gone to trial...)
