Yes, they clearly mentioned that in the 30mins video. That's why fuel will be stored in the aft of the fuselage instead of the wings.

Great, yet another acquisition. So eventually everything will become one company or what? I like free markets, at least the idea of competition. I hate conglomerates. Am I contradicting myself?

They really aren't worth anything. My uni got a boneyard 737 to display near the Aero building here in India. Plane itself was free, transporting it to uni costed $50,000. For the curious, heres the plane : https://www.googl

I don't see how its contradicting. >flying from London to New York and back generates about 986kg of CO2 per passenger. This is around 5.8% of annual average co2 emission per Australian. So if you take this flight to no-where and

Me (and many others I'm sure) love plane noises! I once interned at HAL (Indian defense manufacturer), and rented a place nearby. We had fighters constantly taking off and landing, defense transport aircraft flying very low (it

Basically they were pushing the narrative that Manning only leaked info which put US personal in danger. That his leaks didn't really reveal any human rights violations.

Whenever news about Chelsea Manning was posted on reddit, few comments (falsely) posted how Manning leaks were of no use, etc. "Internet armies" is very real, not some conspiracy.

I am new to Hackernews, is this site mainly for technology or is politics also allowed?

One could argue these institutions aren't "trustworthy". Myself, I really don't know where the truth lies. For example, WMDs in Iraq were also by institutions. They may have their own agenda (weather justi

Facebook is selling the Quest 2 for a loss? (Not that I would be surprised).

Yes. I hope someday mobile devices(like phones and VR sets) become like laptops - you can install an OS you want. You should own the hardware. I'm not a fan of the whole hardware-software integration.

I like APNews and Reuters. Gaurdian and NYTimes are pretty inaccurate, atleast when they report about my country.

One could argue nuclear bombs and MAD are the reason there hasn't been a third world war. Someone asked an engineer who designed ICBMs : How do you feel that things you worked on may never actually be used? He said, then I h

Being forced to stick to one store is shitty for the user.

What a disgrace. I hope consumers realize how bad this is. Imagine if something like that happened in the Desktop space.

Simply because Epic has the money to fight for what I believe. The lawsuit isn't just about Epic, its about the bigger ramifications.

I was very depressed over the last few months because I thought there is no one left who will stand against these big companies. Reading hackernews comments was very depressing since everyone was defending Apple. That changed today, af
