I think they may have been referring to more of a SpaceX leadership situation.

I remember playing team fortress on my IBM Aptiva with the awful modem/soundcard combo which meant I could either play online or with sound but not both. Given the abundance in time inside all of a sudden I think I'll give this a

Just saw a 2020 top spec model 3 that still has a few misaligned gaps and bunching seals in the doors. The leather around the back where it was punched out is creased. It's a great car, but the for and finish sadly still has a ways to

After a transatlantic flight it's highly unlikely you'll land over your maximum landing weight. That situation usually happens only when they have to land within an hour of takeoff.

They only tested them in the summer so hopefully there aren't any temperature issues which could affect winter durability of the plastic.

In previous models you could cut out the auto trim while still having electric trim on the yoke enabled. Sadly in the MAX Boeing decided to get rid of this feature which would have been pretty damn useful for these crews.

Yup it is and it's still a terrible value proposition vs AMD.

Fair enough but the performance gap is so wide now (and will be for at least a while) that it's hard to recommend this one.

Four engines are generally way more inefficient than two big ones. That's why they're being phased out. A340,B747,A380, BA146, etc.

A split brain in a plane is a bit of a nightmare. I'm not sure how they can work around it with just two computers.

How does this play out for amateur satellites operating in the 2m band? Do they have to stop broadcasting over Europe?

Firefox will still often call for the dedicated GFX card (boosting battery usage) and then refuse to let it go even if you close the tab. I generally switch to Safari when I'm trying to maximize battery life.

Finding mainstream vendor offerings has been a bit more difficult with AMD. We recently bought 2 E-2146G servers from Dell (preferred vendor at the org.) because anything AMD was only offered as a 2 processor server which was overkill for t

One big problem I continue to see is that the behaviour you get used to can change with a software update and I think that's dangerous. People can naturally let down their guard when things become routine and may be ill prepared to dea

You're correct that this is different from the 737 MAX MCAS crashes since those involved more human factors though I think it's fair to take a longer look at the proposed shortcuts. Boeing's corner cutting and lack of regulat

Wow that would be a huge loss, I think the last reallocation was the 1.25m band. This would affect things world wide so it's not a surprise why Thales group would want to scoop it up.
