I'm very anti-NATO, like the vast majority of Marxists, and I don't fall for the hysteria around the Russian Federation as some ultimate evil, though,

You in another comment. The Russian federation is currently occupying multiple neighbouring countries, bombing civilians, and generally having a war crime of a time. And you're saying they're not evil?

You're off the deep end, my friend.

So, you're pro Russian, but smart enough to not outright say it. Because they certainly do a lot of evil stuff.

Ferret, I think. Possibly a stoat or weasel.

Every single comment I see from you is in some way pro Russian, you're a very one note commenter.

Nobody asked.

I've got this goober tagged as "tankie" in my app, they're quite steadily pro Russian.

But investigators are also zeroing in on what they describe is an interesting point in the report.

It says in December 2018, the US Federal Aviation Administration issued a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) highlighting that some Boeing 737 fuel control switches were installed with the locking feature disengaged.

Ahh. Although I doubt they've been like that for ten years, if that's happened here, so likely a maintenance issue.

You can also just throttle back, which would have the same effect.

These switches are evidently monitored by the aircraft's systems, as the investigators seem to know for a fact when these switches were moved. This is not a "failure", unless the switch moved by itself.

I'm not sure why you're trying to "I reckon" this, when we know why the engines stopped.

Apparently they need to be pulled to change their orientation, I'm wondering if the mechanism simply wore out?

This article has a photo of the switches in question, and goes into more detail about how they work.

And Linux users are evangelical, too.

This is the lefty version of "everything I don't like is woke"

It's usually italicised, I.E removed

Lemmy.ml has a long list of no-no words, so a fun way to wind them up is to actually type an italicised removed, and let them think you said something entirely different.

Have you heard the story of the death valley Germans, by any chance? It seems to be a common theme with European tourists getting into trouble in remote areas.

I'd say leaving a note stating your intentions would also be a good idea, if you do leave your vehicle.

I'm surprised someone travelling in such a remote area wouldn't have some type of satellite communicator, an Inreach type device or a PLB.

Knowledge and wisdom is the one I've heard before.

Botanically, sure, but from a culinary perspective they're used like a vegetable.

What's so difficult to believe about this? Why would it be fake?
