This is what I'm going by:

The report said that in December 2018, the US Federal Aviation Administration issued a special airworthiness information bulletin based on reports from operators of model 737 planes that the fuel control switches were installed with the locking feature disengaged.

The airworthiness concern was not considered an unsafe condition that would warrant an airworthiness directive – a legally enforceable regulation to correct unsafe conditions.

The same switch design is used in Boeing 787-8 aircraft, including Air India’s VT-ANB, which crashed. The report added: “As per the information from Air India, the suggested inspections were not carried out as the SAIB was advisory and not mandatory.”

To me Bitcoin long term is still kind of iffy, but if you want something ELSE to help you escape the traditional monetary system, there is gold and silver which are also up quite a but for the year, even the past year, and moving higher.

You can also get crypto backed by gold or silver as well if you want an electronic form. Just make sure you get a form actually backed by real metals in vaults.

The thing here is that you're burning coal for the purpose of not having to burn coal again. You'd have to have an attention span of a gnat to not see that far ahead.

We can't go straight to zero emissions guys. There's gonna be a transition. This feels like clickbait, lacks long-term thinking, and is not a reasonable argument.

1. Were the safety guards, which were optional, installed?

2. We know investigators are looking into the computer system, does this mean the computer can also set the switch settings?

If the answers are "no" and "no" respectively, it was likely an accidental bump.

If the answers are "yes" and "no", then one of the pilots lied.

If the answer to the second one is yes, then regardless of the answer to the first, I'd hope the investigation thoroughly checks whether the software can be triggered into doing so through faulty data or the existence of software defects.

Blah blah blah backseat pilot. Been covered elsewhere that the switches were installed without the protections on some planes, and there doesn't seem to be a record of Air India making the specified update to correct it.

Not that you might not be wrong, but you shouldn't be so certain.

Why in the hell would the pilot lie about his actions at that moment?

As someone who did an "around the USA" trip last year (I'm not american) of all the places we stopped/stayed (disney world, vegas, yosimite national park etc) LA was the worst.

It's not quite "escape from LA" movie level, but it was darn closer than I'd have liked it to be.

Yes, bank services should be free, and everyone that works in a bank should be a volunteer!

No, if you want to tie your PayPal account to your bank account, there's a fee from PayPal, not the bank. PayPal needs to recoup the fee they pay the bank.

Previously, the bank itself covered the cost of providing the info, not the subset of customers that use the info.

Oh no! You can't disrupt the disrupters, that's not fair!

Which? Banks? Alternate payment platforms? And what would we have in their place? Little pieces of paper with pictures of dead presidents and founders? A barter-based economy?

JPMorgan has been giving third-parties access to JPMorgan bank account info for free at great expense to JPMorgan, why shouldn't they charge third-parties a fee for the info?

JPMorgan was shouldering the cost, asking the users to pay for this info just makes sense.

It's hard to feel bad for these competing payment platforms & others whose business models and pricing sheets were based on JPMorgan giving them free access to JPMorgan customer data.

Heavens to mergatroids! Banks charging customers fees ? Say it isn't so! /sarcasm

You know what, I'll grant you that. I was thinking "post" and not "assertion", but that's not what I wrote so you can have that. Note that the sky didn't fall on me when I admitted to being wrong and that I didn't need to blame you or Biden for it. ;)

I'll correct my remark: "You made an assertion about Biden causing 'real damage' and used a claim from Alberta to support it. Yadda yadda yadda.

Not sure about these particular devices, but in general devices will still be fine. You add via a QR code, HomeKit stuff is local only. But even with this - it's Matter/Thread that's the current hotness, not HomeKit/Google/Alexa-specific. If a thing supports Matter and Thread, *properly* (i.e. hubless), then you're fine. If it doesn't, or it does but needs a hub in the middle before it spits out Matter out of the other side...be wary.

You made an assertion about "the 51st state" and used a claim from Alberta to support it. That claim fell apart under scrutiny. Your assertion is still unsupported. If anybody should be calling Alberta for help, it's YOU. Heh.
