“Hypocrisy.”

Icanhas and Failblog were hilarious back in the day. I think that CEO Ben whatshisname wrecked it by commercializing it.

They have weaponized their persecution complex.

*Actively maneuvering into…

“Descent” sounds passive.

Still collecting that paycheck and not rocking the boat.

The same people that say the economy is shit because life’s hard and they can’t get ahead are the same ones that point out that the president says the economy is doing great whenever someone criticizes him.

SMH

What the fuck is he on about.

Interestingly, statistics reveal that over 95 percent of passengers involved in a plane crash survive, underscoring the importance of preparation and awareness in ensuring safety during flights.

Wrong again, genius. You need to stop, now.

I’m sure they’re the same self-centered people exiting the burning aircraft with their carry-on bags.

Cause and effect are beyond these troglodytes. They double down on stupid and actively refuse to understand how that’s going to work.

A name I never thought I’d know, and will now try to forget.

Wrong on all counts.

You have no clue how little some people fly, and some may only fly a few times in a lifetime. The safety briefing is for them, not jaded geniuses that don’t count the seat rows to the nearest emergency exit.

I was not able to find a source I find reliable, but there are many sites that suggest elephants recognize individual humans and recognize guns as threats, and can even recognize a gun pointed at them is a threat. So if someone they don’t know has a gun, and we’ll never know if he aimed one at an elephant for funsies, they may have identified him as a threat and defended themselves by killing him.

You knew this. Just imagine the tiger with slit pupils and your brain will “wtf”. Same with panthers, lions, snow leopards, mountain lions…

Next in AI: realistic eyes!

Just someone looking to exploit Americans for more money.

…and extend the ability of governments and especially corporations to control what you see and hear. From ads to what “facts” they want you to see.

You’re conflating two things. One is GPS, which is designed to stop functioning above 1,000 knots to prevent it from being used in a missile.

The other is the interference of which I spoke having to do with electronics like cellphones that operate at harmonics that overlay frequencies used by aircraft navigation systems. It can be demonstrated that they do indeed interfere, but so many things have to happen to make the interference happen it’s wildly unlikely. So many things have changed over the years that prevent this from happening, like cellphones operate at lower power, personal electronics are better shielded, and operate at lower power. On top of that, the aircraft’s RF and EM shielding would have to be damaged in just the right spot, and the electronic device would have to be right near the damage.

As far as cell towers go, most phones are too weak to make a good connection from all but the lowest altitudes, and you’re moving fast enough that it can’t handshake the next tower and negotiate the connection quick enough to have a good connection except maybe st the slowest speeds and altitude on approach for landing.

I did a minor study on this exact subject, but it’s been decades, so the details are fuzzy.

Trump has made over a billion dollars his first year in office this term. It’s amazing how much money you can hoard when taxpayers give it to you, businesses pay you homage, business deals just fall into your lap, and you use the government lawyers and taxpayer money to defend yourself from suits.

Here comes America’s “Four Pests” campaign.
