EVERYBODY IS DOING SOMETHING
Is this the same guy who wrote the Harry Potter Rationalism fan-fic and started the ai worshipping cult?

Normally I'm not a commenter, but reading this article made me cringe harder and harder as the article went on. Never have I seen someone so self confident in the decisions they made that are potentially going to ruin their own life. She was so happy to tell us how anti trans she was and still is, but she complains that her anti trans advocacy is now leading to discrimination against her. Truly a prefect leopard eating face moment. Hell, it seems like she still supports the leopard, despite her head being in it's mouth.

FAA warns of possible defect in Boeing 777 engines
Seems like the title is a bit deceptive. It mentions multiple airliners from both Boeing and Airbus, that are potentially in need of having engine components replaced, due to defects introduced by GE Aerospace.

Just in case anyone wants to get me a B-52, I am willing to make that commitment
May the 1000 year reign of the B-52 bring us joy and prosperity.

FAA warns of possible defect in Boeing 777 engines
Reply in thread
FTA: "As per FlightGlobal, the FAA’s proposal is the latest in a series of regulatory actions that have been taken in response to the discovery of iron inclusion in several types of GE Aerospace engines, including the GEnx and CFM International Leap turbofans. The GEnx powers Boeing 787 aircraft, while the Leap powers Boeing 737 Max and Airbus A320neo-family aircraft."

Potentially a reference to the Winged Hussars?

Elon Musk Is Trump's ‘Guest Who Wouldn’t Leave,’ Reporter Warns

I don't believe that theory. How does an ISP impact the functionality of a voting machine, especially when they have paper copies of the ballots? It's not like they were running SpaceX software on the machine, just using it as an Internet connection to report results to a centralized database. Conspiracies like this are what we fought against in 2020, when the QAnon fools thought Hugo Chavez and Dominion stole the election from Trump.

Steel is booming in Arkansas — so why are so many people still struggling to get by?
Reply in thread
I've worked for a Steel Company in that part of Arkansas before. In my experience what drove companies to move there were:
Wages weren't really bad from what I remember. Many jobs starting at $80k, with good production bonus incentives. Though the work was often very physical with long working hours.

It's not cool to generalize a whole region like that. You act as if the whole Midwest is a hive mind.

I've been using Pocket Casts for about 5 years now, and I love it. Although, I've been thinking about switching to AntennaPod, because it's Open Source

I was just about to recommend this podcast. I tend to like most things Jake Hanrahan puts out, as they're usually well researched and interesting.

A coaxial tilt rotor, at that. Maybe it can cause twice the accidents then.

Light Purple Geon Frog TKL & Purple Frog Pad - GMK Laser R2
The only thing I'd change is to find a purple case for the Frog TKL that matches more closely to the color of the Frog Pad. But, I'm still happy with the keyboard, and the color difference is less pronounced in real life, than the picture would make it seem.

Looking for cable management advice
Ikea has a pretty cheap cable tray. I use it under my desk, and it's worked pretty well.

TIL people will park under overpasses and block traffic to prevent hail damage.

What a small world. I was driving south on 170 with my wife at that same time. We luckily were right before the exit to the Galleria when the hail started. We quickly ducked into their parking garage until the tornado had passed.

Thanks! It ended up being practical, as I use it a lot for data entry, or for a few games I play that have key bindings for numpad buttons. Then, when I'm not using it, I can just move it out of the way.

Missouri School Board Votes To Remove Black History Classes
Reply in thread
I'm with you, it's really disappointing seeing it get this bad. It feels like Missouri has been trying it's hardest to catch up to Texas and Florida, in fighting the culture war. Example: one of the Republican candidates for governor wants to get rid of the state's department of education.
