I work in tech, and have had multiple employees claim they only have "dumb" phones for what I'm pretty sure is this exact reason. And I never blame them, just put the heat on IT to find a solution.
I'm 9 books into WoT right now (its good shit) and the overlap between the Dune series is pretty interesting to say the least. Rand -> Paul, Aes Sedai -> Benne Gesserit, Aiel -> Fremen, I mean there's a dozen more comparisons I could make too. The lack of Turbo Pussies and chair dogs is a let down though.
It wins by a huge margin on the energy to weight ratio. In scenarios where weight doesn't matter it's dumb, but there is potential in places like air travel where it does make sense.
Yeah I think we just need more users. I mean a lot of my niche ones exist on here, which mean other users have already cared enough to start it up, but there's just not enough people to get them active.
Yeah hard agree with this. Old reddit sucks on mobile unfortunately while new reddit sucks everywhere but is nonetheless slightly more usable on mobile (especially with ublock and a few other plugins). I am very hopeful we keep growing over here so the niche communities can start to get traction and I can stop going over there entirely.
It's mostly landing/takeoff records. Big airports have takeoff and landing fees and would keep records such as this for accounting and legal reasons. Being a major airport like LAX means it's probably mostly private/commercial jets, but also plenty of small time hobbyist aviators are probably wrapped up in this, and would be the only victim here ( general aviation pilots tend to use smaller, local airports but still on occasion hit the big ones).
Oh shit yeah I forgot about that part. It's been probably 10 or 15 years since I've seen it. I thought the panty raid and hidden cameras were bad, but damn, that movie did not age well.
You apparently haven't tried calling local government agencies in mid-size cities, or a good chunk of airlines. It's frustrating and I welcome anything that can help.
Who knew, you can establish a healthy relationship with alcohol with your kids if you don't treat it like some Forbidden fruit.
