I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current President of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

im sure New Orleans, a city famous for burying people above ground because the ground is below sea level, would have no issues with fully underground transportation during severe weather.

it’s a Cirrus Vision. I didn’t know techbros have a jet, but it’s the cheapest, lowest, slowest very light jet, and it has a lot of bells and whistles.

So probably, yes.

He had a funny tweet the other day where he was like "actually by being a free speech absolutist I mean you should do free speech if the government says it's ok! limiting free speech because the government says so is fine"

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1519036983137509376?cxt=HHwWgIC9ydCF2pQqAAAA

So the China/EU free speech limitations thing doesn't seem like a major blocker and it wouldn't surprise me if twitter under musk was more than happy to play ball with the chinese government. Let's be honest, this is mainly about american politics anyway, for musk, his fanboys, and the people who hate him (me).

Oh, I was remembering the Cirrus SR22, which was supposed to be super safe due to the airframe parachute. In the first 4 years of production it had 29 accidents and 13 fatalities. One of them was an emergency landing followed by being hit by a vehicle, which is why this reminded me.

The Vision also has the parachute.

It’s Cirrus’ signature.

Cirrus owners get themselves into all kinds of bullshit that they can’t fly out of, like spins or rough terrain or IMC or combinations of the preceding.

CAPS does save lives.

Better training and better sense would also save lives.

Isn’t this somewhat common? I thought I saw a story about how places like McDonald’s will connect the drive thru speaker to a call center that enters the order for the cashier to speed up order processing.
