Do the Dreamliners still crack wings and catch fire? Haven't really heard a lot about them.

Much like how the supermarket cashier is responsible for when the delivery truck crashes 30 miles from here and I can't get my favorite cookies. Also diversity's fault.

Is this like the couple of weeks after the Palestine OH derailment where there was increased media coverage of an already existing constant hum of infrastructure collapse. Or does this represent an actual uptick in failures.

It's like clockwork when companies get non-industry leadership they go to absolute poo poo. Dudes with completely empty heads whose qualification is self-fufilling "can be CEO because was CEO"

The "DEI is responsible for someone not tightening the blots on the door plug/the plug blowing out during cabin pressurization" thing is a purely right wing media construction right? I don't think it would really work anywhere else because it sounds unhinged unless you've been living in that ecosystem for years

Dudes with completely empty heads whose qualification is self-fufilling "can be CEO because was CEO" I mean it's the inevitable result of trying to squeeze more profit out of any company, just keep cutting whatever corners you can get away with until one day oops too far It MUST happen- if the company itself doesn't do it some PE firm will leverage buyout and rip the copper wiring out if the walls Sometimes the only consequence is some bullshit fine that's so small it doesn't really deter them and it just keeps getting worse

I would not be surprised if someone from Boeing called their contact at the Daily Wire and a deal was made.

Xaris posted:airliners are also fairly big money losers overall but makeup for it in like mileage programs and doodads. the way to be a successful commercial airline is to match your revenue to the rate of depreciation of your fleet; as your airplanes age you deduct the annual depreciation from your income so you keep a slim profit margin and very low tax liability the airplanes themselves may not make money, but when you factor in their amortized depreciation (there are rules and curves about how you're allowed to depreciate different kinds of capital assets and they are very favorable and long term for big ol airplanes) baby you got a stew goin

I don't think it would really work anywhere else because it sounds unhinged unless you've been living in that ecosystem for years They’re saying that black people are too stupid to fly planes or tighten bolts and they’re going to get more open in their racism as time goes on because there are fewer and fewer well paying jobs and white people need to gatekeep them. The whole “lazy government workers” meme came into being as black people started entering civil service en masse because it was a way to get into the middle class that wasn’t actively discriminatory in hiring practices.
