You’ve probably never invested hundreds or thousands of hours in a hobby, art form, craft or skill. If you had, you would find the ad at least mildly disconcerting. If you don’t see how, maybe it’s time to get off the screen? Stop consuming

Speed bumps and roundabouts do not “wear out” your car. Not how you ever arrived at that idea.

No, what parent said is true: they could have changed the model number if they so chose to, and kept the same type rating. The 757 and 767 have the same type rating for example. Whether they call it 737, 737 Max, 73Seven, 838 or whatever el

No, I won’t provide such an explanation or attempt to convince you any further. It’s not “my view” it’s just how it works. Plenty of videos and photos online demonstrating how the door works, you can easily go find them and convince yoursel

You’re wrong. The stops take the pressure load, that’s why there are 12 of them and they are beefy. The bolts simply keep the door behind the stops, that’s why only 4 bolts are needed for that.

Sorry but you are completely wrong here.

by throwaheyy 3y ago
No. The bolts don’t hold the door/plug against the pressure. There are 12 stops and brackets, separate from the bolts, that take the pressurization load and transfer it to the airframe. The bolts are there to simply prevent the door fr

Sure but if you read what I’m replying to, they are not “lying” to call it a 737-8-200. That is what it is.

by throwaheyy 3y ago
They call it that because their plane is in fact not a 737 Max 8. Ryanair’s aircraft is a different variant, made only for them, the Max 200 which is the same size as a Max 8 but has the extra exits for up to 200 pax.

It wasn’t a door.

Yes, “tf edit” would mark on the server that you were opening the file for editing, and cleared the read-only bit, but it didn’t lock the file for others or prevent concurrent edits in any way.

by throwaheyy 3y ago
Are you sure? My experience of using TFVC was that it would warn you if someone else had opened the file for editing but would not actually lock it. Multiple people could edit the same file concurrently with standard automerging/confli

With perpetually heavy traffic, a nice sandstone geology and no earthquakes, not to mention the home of Macquarie Bank, Sydney is like a perfect shitstorm of conditions for a massive network of freeway toll tunnels. At least, one of the tun

As a Seattle resident I don’t mind it being gradual, but it is painful seeing its compromised again and again. For example, using slow light-rail vehicles on a regional length line, abandoning a centralised transfer hub, and monumental stat

Yup, we built a new house in Australia in 2001 and thought we were being so forward thinking by getting a 2nd phone line for the modem/fax. Of course it ended up being done using a pair gain and we were stuck at 33.6k.

Streetcar suburbs are not 1950s suburbs, they are 1900s-1930s suburbs. 1950s suburbs are car suburbs.

I assume ”non-resident” in this context means not a permanent resident, but still a SSN-holding resident otherwise. For example a TN or H1-B visa. These visas don’t authorize you to work for a company other than the one officially sponsorin

Shots inside an aircraft usually use a set. If you watch any Netflix series at all, you start to see the same A320-based aircraft cabin set used over and over again in different shows. It looks just like an A320 cabin interior, but split in

You’re being shortsighted. Apple is the brand that many of us in the tech crowd have long recommended to our non-technical friends and relatives. You could pay a slightly premium price and expect a machine that is easy to understand, “just

It isn’t uncommon when you know what it is doing. Wholesale removal or discouragement of LINQ is a sign of fake cargo-cult performance “optimization”. It’s perfectly fine to use if you learn about how it works and how to use it properly.

Yuck. Not sure I’d pay money to find out what Meta’s definition of “ad” is. Sure the explicit ads may be gone but what about all the “promoted content” and chum-boxes? I consider those to be ads too. This is Meta we’re talking about. You ca

I'd disagree. For financial services, one cent unaccounted for is failure.

What? That’s an even worse analogy. Being integral parts of the Ford truck, it’s like saying that users should have a choice of what programming language Google used for its services, or what brand server it uses in its data centers, or whi
