You _used_ to be able to indict a ham sandwich anyway. These days the federal government can’t even manage to indict someone caught on video throwing a hand sandwich at law enforcement.

Two companies that aren’t currently being run by people throwing nazi salutes; great choices.

You had me up until “we take full responsibility”. This administration is much more about darvo response when they’re caught doing something wrong.

back when orkut was a thing, google did this one weekend with internal employees. some co-workers participated; unsurprisingly they all said it was _very_ disturbing.

it's not a defense because despite your efforts to antagonize, I don't need to defend myself. i'm over our little interaction. cheers.

it's not a "defense". i'm saying your reply is weirdly bombastic and generally incoherent.

this reads like an LLM generated argument. it's totally incoherent and has almost nothing to do with what's being discussed. cheers, friend.

> but proceeded to try to lock up Trump for the entire period of 2021-2024. that's a very strange/partisan way to say that they tried to hold him legally accountable for his actions.

well, the first attempt was reckless because they didn't have enough altitude. the second attempt was with more altitude, ie. "driving with more caution"

fwiw, I tested this out as well by clicking open issue and uploading a file and then not actually submitting the issue. the file is still accessible 2 days later. so it doesn't appear to be fixed. :-|

i'm not disagreeing with you that going from non-profit to for-profit should be challenged, but doesn't openai still maintain their non-profit? they just added a for-profit "arm" (whatever that means).

it's a sad, they crashed like 30 miles off the coast in very poor weather. if they had managed to turn back ~15 minutes earlier they probably would've been able to land at HAF. the preliminary ntsb report is here: https:/&#x

MON just means that there are a certain number of VORs that aren't going to be decommissioned. it's not a different kind of VOR. and they're decommissioning all of these VORs precisely because GPS is so reliable.

Having ff on an ipad and phone is really not having a “common point of failure” You do you, but I find relying on a second device (third really, the plane has gps and nav radios) and battery backups much easier than buying a new chart suppl

personally I carry a second efb (eg. my phone) and spare power banks rather than try to deal with a mess of paper charts. it's certainly cheaper than trying to keep my sectionals up to date (which, now that I think about it, I don&#x27

you're absolutely right, charts and plates. it's fun to realize how much aviation terminology comes from boating.

it was less fun having beers on a thursday afternoon for sure, but I at least understood the fact that the company had thousands of non-US employees and TGIF on a friday afternoon for us was TGIM for everyone else.

yeah, eric stepped down in 2011 and larry took over as CEO and from the inside it felt fine for a while. but larry definitely got disinterested after a few years and the company felt rudderless by like the end of 2014.
