I think one of the biggest giveaways will be the voice recording and how they react to the situation. I doubt it will release publicly but it should give at least some idea to the Investigators.

And I was pretty surprised by the switches honestly, I figured they would have at least a guard and a spring loaded toggle, but it's just the spring loaded toggle. Those are used a lot for any switch you don't want moving accidentally, so it wasn't super unique or anything.

Turtle WoW is great, I'm dreading Blizzard shutting it down though. I'm hoping they avoid them but I feel their upcoming remastered client might attract too much attention.

It's possible it was intentional, but unless it was a terror attack from the pilot it doesn't make much sense. Since there was no manifesto or any statement I doubt that. Suicide is technically a possibility, but why take a plane full of people and some on the ground with you? I know some people lose empathy and reason when they get to that point, but it seems significantly more likely to me that the pilot was fatigued and just did the wrong thing, hanlon's razor and all that. Mistakes are more common than you would think, they're just not usually 'cut off fuel to both engines right after takeoff' bad.

The landing gear lever is located between the 2 primary flight displays while the fuel cutoff switches were directly below the throttle. They also look and operate in different ways. The only way I could see someone accidentally confusing the two is if the pilot flew other aircraft types where some function is located in the same place as the fuel cutoff switches.

Apparently the cockpit voice recording caught one pilot asking why they shut off the fuel and the other denying it. They were also turned back on right before the crash and were found in the on position, so it doesn't appear one was trying to force it off or anything.

“They chose to ignore five trans youth. But they didn’t choose to ignore the chair and glue I spilled on it," Lantz continued. “I remember what I endured as a closeted teen in the 1970s. I don’t want to see another LGBTQ kid die by suicide. Our kids are suffering — physically, mentally and emotionally. And I did what I felt I had to do.”

Legend.

You don't just leave a one and two year old locked in a car unsupervised for two and a half hours, regardless of air conditioning.

It's always been this way with Nintendo, even way back. I did a backlight mod to an original DMG-01 Gameboy yesterday and they used tri-wing screws to secure the case, those things suck and are only used to keep consumers out.

Where's the "For rectal use only" stickers when you need them.

Yeah that egress training is horrible, never done it myself but know a few who have. Starts off relatively easy, until they flip it upside-down and turn off the lights to simulate night. Even the strongest swimmers have trouble.

Also lost a high school friend when they jumped in to save someone struggling in a lake and were pushed under. The person they were trying to rescue survived but they didn't.

A friend of mine put in a offer on a house a year ago - at their asking price - and got a similar response. Like don't make that your asking price if you're going to get angry when people offer that? But I guess all the houses around that area were selling above asking and they probably already had much higher offers, still doesn't excuse them being a dick.

Me, even though I know that I'll probably end up enjoying the thing, still dreading to go to the thing.

Yeah but I feel like that only worked because YouTube was still fairly new and a niche market compared to groceries, which everbody needs. I don't see how even Amazon can try to kill the competition in a market that huge, regardless of price or convenience.

A month on current funds and maybe a couple more if I started selling off longer term assets.

Tighty rocks a diaper, but it's not a miracle worker. His aim? Questionable. His attitude? Unbothered. Because of the occasional mess, he can't go to rental homes.

Awww, poor guy seems to have some issues with his bladder. As sad as it is, I imagine this might be the reason why he's still there :( Hopefully someone with the ability to care for him comes along soon, he deserves it ❤️

I have very little confidence I'll get a retirement. Even though I'm contributing to the Canada Pension Plan, I'm so far away that by the time I get there I have serious doubts the program will still exist. There is obviously calculations they make to determine the health of the fund, but I don't think they are properly taking into account how much extra strain extended life expectancies will take on the program. If they plan for people to be on retirement for an average of 15 years, and suddenly that changes to 20 or 25 years, that fund will dry up quick. Combine that with the influx of boomer retirees and to me it doesn't look so good.

I saw that short film years ago and it still sticks with me. Back then it seemed possible but the tech wasn't quite there, now we see it in use.

Heck yeah, I remember building out and optimizing my PC to squeeze every frame I could out of Arma 3 back when it released. I have such fond memories of that game, I played tons of casual multiplayer games and Arma 3 Project Life which was a really well done invite only life roleplay game mode (before the developers killed the community by being dicks).

Which they would then quote out of context as "there is no authority except for god".

Are there actually no safeguards against this? It seems like a pretty big fucking flaw in a democratic system if you can kill the opposing elected officials in order to gain control of the state. Like their votes should temporarily go to someone else in the party or something, not just be wiped out completely.

I got lucky and in my years of gliding never had an actual rope break. In fact I only ever heard of one happening at this place while I worked there. They had the ropes down to an art though, inspected multiple times a day and the end inspected on every launch, custom covers for the ring to protect it while dragged down the runway, it was fancy. Being a training facility I suppose that's smart. Closest I got was during my instructor training with the chief pilot, that's the only person allowed to do unbriefed emergency simulations. It definitely caught me off guard!
