This also might be the thing the first astronauts warned us about a private space industry. Sure, they can innovate faster and cheaper, but not as safely. There's a 60 minutes interview with musk crying because his astronaut idols didn't see eye to eye with him on privatizing space.

Would be helpful to compare fleet sizes, how many accidents per total flights. Total accidents doesn't mean much without a comparison of either those stats.

I still think this is the biggest issue with lemmy right now. There should be a way for communities that are identical across instances that can connect where a post would be cross posted and connected with links to each instance it's connected with.

The article mentions "Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment". https://www.alliance4creativity.com/

Looks like a group that takes down piracy websites.

I assume MPA refers to "The Motion Picture Association". They keep changing their name: "The MPA, originally called the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) and later the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA)", then abbreviated to MPA.

Just clarifying the abbreviations since it isn't really explained/articulated in the article.

The Texas Observer is a reputable site. It's one of the last surviving papers in Texas with actual investigative journalists.

Wtf does dell profits have to do with this? Pretty heartless. Imagine your loved one committed suicide and this number was what was the only thing associated with them.

I never used Twitter actively but used it for announcements and live events happening. Now when I go to a page for updates it shows me (maybe?) the most active tweets from the past. For example, I'll check the MLS page for game delays, the MLS page will have the post of a delay on their site, but if I go to the MLS Twitter it just shows posts from years ago about some goal that is so irrelevant for what I am looking for. I could list many other examples of how useless it has become...
