Oh, they could. They could have joined this cluster fuck of a war. The Tories 100% would have. So there's that.

This is why Boeing builds planes whose wings regularly fall off.

As in, it's literally the reason. They replaced all of their engineer managers with business managers who don't understand the process.

Was that the one where the AI couldn't even manage a vending machine?

Anyone have a version we can actually read? The article is payable and obviously I'm not going to pay to read one article

Every time they confiscate one nanogram of weed they always have to post about it on Twitter

It's not humans that are the problem, it's specific individuals that are the problem. Basically it's like 12 people.

I really want to see how it handles non-human characters. The fact that we didn't see any makes me think that it doesn't do well.

Airports are required by law to screen their passengers.

Yeah with things like metal detectors. There's no law requiring a bunch of ineffective humans.

I have noticed that the higher up the chain of command you go the less and less they are able to write coherent sentences.

I get emails from managers and they'll say things like: take look at this tickt ITX0004891 neds fixing asap

Then go incommunicado for the rest of the week so I can't get any follow-up

I value Wikipedia and appreciate what they do is important but they have plenty of money. If you are in the financial situation to donate and want to great but I get a bit sick of the guilt tripping they do. They claimed every day for the past decade that they're about to go out of business any moment now.

Conservatism has always been fascism adjacent. It's just a cover for selfishness it's not actually a political belief. Especially in the US especially in the last decade or so. Trump didn't come out of a vacuum, the conditions had to be right for someone like him to be able to be appealing.

I heard Obama flew one of the planes.

 

When you reveal a spoiler the black rectangles go away and it then renders the text in white, but on a white background (light coloured theme) The text renders is exactly the same colour as the background and so you can not see it unless you highlight the post, this renders the background of the post as light grey and there is just about enough contrast difference to now read the text.

When spoiler text is revealed it should render in the same colour as normal text. I'm not sure why it's white.

See images below for demonstration.

spoiler text is hidden

spoiler text has been revealed but is invisible

text post is highlighted and now you can see the spoiler text rendered in white
