I'd agree with you. I live in the UK, but just recently went to Florida. When I came back I couldn't get over how much of a shithole the UK was - compared to Florida!!
Yeah apparently they're happy with Mr Security leaving the door open and running a skeleton crew at the border on the 50th anniversary of the last Yom Kippur war.
That has little to nothing to do with the current state of affairs at Boeing. The current situation was brought about by the merger between Boeing and McDonnell Douglas, with the MDD executives joining Boeing's board of directors and continuing the same shitty behaviour. Eg, with the MD-10 and its cargo door, the issue was raised at design stage, denied until after 2 massive fatal accidents occurred, and then they tried to get around it with "gentleman's agreements" with the FAA - just like with the MCAS issue on the 737 MAX.
The problems can be pinned down to a very small number of executives, who belong in prison.
The only problem with them braking is trying to find parts, because they've stopped producing them. In terms of having to work on them they're still generally well designed.
It's still mind-boggling that the official position from Russia at the time was that they were not involved, and troops were just on vacation. And the wester governments were like hur-dur-dur, I'd like to speak to the manager.
Yeah I mean I downgrade new computers to Windows 10 Enterprise and patch authenticate with MAS. I tried using Windows 11, but the taskbar pissed me off too much - I want separate tabs starting from the left, not combined, and everything always showing in the notification area. I was going to put up with the tab thing but having to manually set every single notification icon to not hide itself away was just a dealbreaker. I want to know what's running, so I know to kill it.
Upon installation, Wi-Fi drivers don’t exist, so you cannot use the internet while installing if you’re on Wi-Fi.
This is a good thing with modern Windows. You don't want it online while it's installing, you want to install, lock things down a bit and then connect.
10% being undecided imo is just people not willing to admit they're voting for Trump. Looney Toons.
Literally had someone say to me the other day "Basically I'm voting for anyone who isn't Biden". And then later his mother said she couldn't visit family in Mexico "because of all the chaos at the border". The kool aid has been drunk, and they're hooked on it.
But hopefully no more standing ovations in Parliament for WW2 Nazis lol
