ya, anything recommendation-based is bound to fill you up with your own bubble bullshit. which might be fine when it's one hit wonders, but not so much when its a fat white guy recruiting you for a nazi crew

I really really really hate flying, and I’ve gone from flying like twice for the first 24 years of my life to flying a number of times a year, including some very long international flights Something about the design of airline seats makes them excruciating for me to use for more than like 3 hours, while I can drive for like 13 hours with few breaks and feel perfectly fine

so, today one of my older and less tech-savvy in-laws browsed a website on his iphone that looked like apple.com and said he was being hacked and prompted him to call "apple tech support" (apparently safari allows any website to ask the user to dial a pre-filled phone number, on page load, with an ios-native pop-up prompt. thanks tim!) long story short, in 2 hours he purchased 4000 earth dollars worth of gift cards, at local brick and mortar stores, for various companies: itunes, best buy, even loving Steam. a cashier at CVS thought he was being scammed but he ignored the warning. he gave all the card info to "apple tech support" so that cisco could verify his account and stop the hackers. it would all get refunded when it was over. this particular in-law can easily afford to eat the loss. my wife was literally in tears laughing when i told her

airline seats are unbelievably terrible and i'm convinced that they do it on purpose. like, the tiny bench seat in the 40-year-old cessna 152 i fly, which has a cabin this big  is still about an order of magnitude more comfortable than any economy-class airline seat i've experienced in my life.

the entire design of an economy-class seat is to be durable enough to meet safety regs, and then be as lightweight as possible. "comfortable" is waaay down the list of priorities, and padding is heavy

they literally don’t clean the surfaces of passenger areas on planes - the most they’ll do is try to straighten up a little the last time your tray and armrests were cleaned was whenever a previous passenger neurotic enough to do so sat there before you and whipped out their chlorox wipes it’s not the recirculated air that makes people sick it’s that every surface you touch is filthier than a bart escalator
