    Sick of this outfit polluting search results with paywall/loginscreen results. Pinterest can get fucked.

    Yup, I asked it how long an azure subscription had existed and it could not even tell me that. Literally now() minus the object’s creation date and it had no idea what to do.

    Exactly, half of a system exists as code but the other half exists as a mental model in the minds of the devs. With AI the former will, now much more quickly, outrun or deviate fro…

    This is why I do not use any google apps and deleted my google anccount. Their shitty software pisses me off. Every time I try to use it, the UI elements shift around as I try an a…

    Dems were already the adult in the room, US voters decided they don’t want one.

    I have quantum fiber and am using a Dynalink WRX36 running OpenWrt. Needed the vlan 201 configuration but works well. OpenWrt is pretty amazing, my router downloads torrents, block…

    No, that aircraft (having taken off from Reagan, visible in the full not-cropped videos) is close to the Kennedy Center camera but is nowhere near where the CRJ and helicopter were…

    Being that the concept of ACC is unusual, and it is run by the NZ Gov, means that ACC ads are some quite bizarre PSAs in a similar vein to NZ’s and Australia’s notorious road safet…

    The interior may be refurbished only 1-2 times during the economic life of the airframe, so the rule generally still holds. 747s are old enough that chances are, even the IFE tech …

    Many airlines have had generally available models of tablets (such as iPads) to hand out on their aircraft lacking screens. eg. Hawaiian Airlines when they still had 767s.

    Really depends on the aircraft. It reflects the age/generation of the aircraft and isn’t crappy just because it’s on an aircraft. 747s had, and A330/A380 still have, these issues. …

    Here’s one example of why it takes ages — drivers that grab the window handle of a control panel and hack at it to show custom UI. Old example that specifically addresses the Displ…
