Geoffrey Thomas and Richard Godfrey have been meticulously analyzing all available evidence on flight AI171, including maintenance records from Air India for the accident aircraft. They have published tens of episodes on flight AI171. Check out one of the many episodes on the YouTube Channel, "Airline News with Geoffrey Thomas". Both of these men have extensive experience in aviation. In this description of this representative episode from November 20, you can see links to further resources, including Richard's report on the causes.

When the investigative bodies break their own rules and behave suspiciously, it behooves us to understand that there can be many players with reasons to want to shift the blame to the pilots, which the investigators did by releasing incomplete fragments of the CVR, and not directly transcribed, not verbatim, but paraphrased, and none of the words attributed to a specific individual.

The uniqueness of good analytical journalism is that the value cannot be appreciated until the journalism is consumed -- in this case, listening to a few of the episodes. Many experts in relevant fields have contributed to their reporting.

The key alternative hypothesis, and one supported by maintenance records, aircraft documentation and air worthiness directives from Boeing is this: If the data stream to the FADEC that conveys the cockpit throttle control position data is interrupted, the control software is designed to shut down the engines. When the data stream resumes, the engines will automatically restart. If such an event happens during take off (which seems likely here, all evidence considered) the only action the pilots could take are the actions they did take on an uncommanded shutdown, the actions they are trained to take, and that is to toggle the fuel control switches.

In fact, the engines did restart, but because of the low altitude, there wasn't enough time to spin up to a sufficient speed to regain thrust. That the engines did restart and were not merely shut down and left off suggests the actions in the cockpit were intended to save the aircraft, not to crash it.

That's the TL;DR spoiler, but you owe it yourselves -- if you care about this story -- if you respect the families of the passengers and the flight crew who died -- to examine the events further, rather than flock like lemmings to draw conclusions based on a couple sound bites from parties potentially having an agenda to advance, which we have reason to believe is that of occluding their posteriors.

While geothermal power generation is in use -- notably in Iceland -- high temperature steam containing minerals and salts is highly corrosive to plumbing, valves and turbines. This has always been an issue in harnessing geothermal energy and is among the reasons that it has remained a niche source of electrical power. Work on suitable materials is incremental; there is no off-the-shelf solution. The specific alloys needed push up the cost of an installation. Maintenance costs are also high, and must be factored into cost/benefit analyses.

Probably the most searing critic of western military training today is Andrei Martyanov, He is also among the most prolific, posting videos almost daily on shi YT channel (Smoothiex12) and having written four books on the subject. The lack of STEM educated officers conducting operations is one of the most common themes. Another is lack of coherent strategy, due to political leaders' backgrounds: lawyers, humanities, rather than nuts-and-bolts STEM degrees. An awesome curmudgeon who strips the facade of competency from western media commentators, analysts and military spokespersons.

Oh, looks like both apt and apt-get use dpkg, which the rust-loving apt maintainer is probably not intending to rewrite... yet.

Many of us cut out teeth using 'apt-get', with apt, an alternative CLI utility, coming later. While there are some putative advantages to apt, it shouldn't matter if the original rust free debian package manager -- continues to be available, correct? Or is this discussion about some low-level libraries shared by both?

Now it's sanctions, sanctions and sanctions, and no one seems to remember "free trade" was the cudgel that the US used to dominate (even bankrupt) other, weaker states' economies. It's hard to imagine that a US spokesdroid could stand up and advocate free trade with a straight face. Probably that's a failure of imagination, as such flip-flops were anticipated so presciently in Orwell's 1984.

Richard Godfrey and Geoffrey Thomas provide a meticulous analysis of all publicly available information on the disaster, with insights from many anonymous collaborators, some retired, some still working in the industry. This video wraps up findings from previous episodes, clarifying the causes and proposing solutions.

t. It is only because of the Starlink constellation that we can observe reentry plasma. Generally the plasma layer blocks communications with the ground during reentry, however a starlink antenna on the leeward side of the ship facing space can "see" the starlink satellites, allowing communications. First Falcon and now Starship. SpaceX employees are doing fabulous work that has changed the space industry. Amazing that they're already scaling to multiple Starship launch/catch towers.

... when the dark forces of the deep state, via Palantir, will control information predigested by AI for supply to the HHS. To the extent the Kennedy's agenda diverges from those forces, this will help to close the gap, not by compromise, but by manipulating the narrative frame to support the deep state agenda. I mean, Palantir is already behind the digital surveillance of Israel's enemies in Gaza, Qatar and elsewhere in the world.

Many streameast sites are listed in gostreameast.link and they seem to be working. Streisand effect, anyone?

One way to analyze a measure like tariffs is to see who will benefit. If you follow Martyanov, he makes a plausible argument that Europe will be the biggest loser -- these are export dominated economies for whom trade with the US is a vital support to their economy. What they depend on, they will now be taxed for.

Then it's possible to test the migrated code.

Yes, all sides do it. In fact, it was a CIA conference on Chinese surveillance that led Edward Snowden to investigate surveillance in the US -- also mandated by law (c.f. CALEA) and recently these mechanisms were penetrated by bad guys, leaving egg on the face of the US security establishment, for the nth time.
