None of that maintenance regulation went away with the cuts and even if airlines started to cut corners on maintenance under the assumption they could get away with it, it’s not going to show up 2 days later. Implicating the recent cuts for

No, I’m suggesting the political supporters of Trump/Elon are the reason people use X. If you are one of them or want to see the mainstream US right-wing zeitgeist, X is where it’s at. That alone is a massive reason for people to keep

If you want to focus on the housing crisis aspect and not the policies that enable addiction, then the answer is still yes. Capped property tax increases is a moronic empathy law based on “protecting little old ladies on fixed incomes”. It

No it’s not. This isn’t a developing country. A grocery chain will see maybe one outage in 10 years that is bad enough to take out the store and internet+cell phone networks. Dispatching someone is absolutely more cost effective for these r

Do you understand the difference between “how much” and “does it”?
856.
by kortilla 2y ago
It’s true, but I can see why you’d be confused. You conflated what the economy rewards (which is what caters to the large middle class pool of money) with what individual companies try to optimize for (eliminating labor costs).

This is wrong on many levels. There isn’t much effort put into preventing those kind of attacks outside of really dense venues like stadiums. Train and subway stations rarely have more than one or two armed officers if they have any at all.

But TSA does nothing to prevent that. Any rando can do that from outside of the plane. The things aren’t bullet proof and tailgating a vehicle into the general aviation gate of a major airport is trivial if you don’t care about eventually b
