  • Live updates: 2 dead after Air Canada plane, fire truck collide at LaGuardia Airport

    Jump

  • Point withstanding, I have flown into LGA enough times to recognize the controller's voice. He has always seemed on top of it.

    To me, it seems like the UAL emergency had him task saturated, and when that happens something eventually slips through the cracks.

  • Live updates: 2 dead after Air Canada plane, fire truck collide at LaGuardia Airport, sources say

  • The TRUs are right in the front so most of the electronics probably went off instantly. If I remember correctly the FADEC (engine control) boxes were in the aft equipment bay, so they may have stayed on for a minute, but I have to imagine with that much of the equipment destroyed they probably shut down.

  • 20 US airports don’t have TSA. Passengers there are not seeing long lines | CNN

    Jump

  • I mean, yeah, that makes sense. But trust me, as someone who has been through a few of these airports multiple times, it isn't any better than the TSA.

  • Anti-Trump protesters at a ‘No Kings’ march in Chicago in October 2025

    Jump

  • I read someones suggestion of banning politics excluding anything older than 20 years, that way the historical stuff still makes it through but shitposts like this get filtered out. I'm all for it!

  • Good job dodging rule 2!

    Could you do lemmy a favor and keep your political shit to the appropriate communities? I'm here for cool pictures not your constant political posting.

  • You can (and should) spend more time in Singapore

  • I don't think people are only staying three days for lack of activities, I think it's the cost of staying there as compared to the rest of Asia that cuts their trip short.

  • Detroit Abandoned Sedans, Now It Wants Them Back | Carscoops

    Jump

  • I partially disagree, I don't think they can compete with asia, but at the same time I think they are massively shooting themselves in the foot in the long term.

    I'm sure Ford can't make a Focus for the same profit Toyota can make a Camry. But imagine you are a college student/fresh graduate and you need a car. Well Ford decided to kill the Focus/Fusion so you have to buy a Camry, and now when you go to buy your big boy car, instead of going straight to the Explorer/F-150, you've already popped your foreign car cherry, and as long as the Camry wasn't a massive piece of shit, your going to look at Highlanders and Tundras.

    So not only is Ford not even giving young people a chance to form brand loyalty, now they have to compete on price with the models that they have/had better margins on.

    You don't have to make huge profits on your sedans, just don't lose your ass and look at it as an investment. But as with all shareholder appeasement strategies, the cats out of the bag, they've traded brand loyalty for a short term share increase, and now they don't know what to do now that the market turned around anyway.

    ...and yes, bring back the Continental, that was one of the better designs to come out of the big three in a while.

  • New legislation would aim to make it easier to build new homes in MI

    Jump

  • I'm sure large real estate conglomerates would never abuse this in order to put more housing on a smaller amount of land in order to boost their profits. /s

  • Concorde cockpit in a museum

    Jump

  • From what I've been told, the Concorde went more junior than one would think. Instead of a leisurely ~6 hour flight, followed by a layover in London or Paris, you were ripping there and back in a day for half the pay.

    Still would be an awesome type rating to have though.

  • Tesla is discontinuing the Model S and Model X in Q2 2026

  • Weird how the second we weren't subsidizing this with everyone's tax dollars, the electric car market started dying...

    Bot?

    Edit: sorry 3/4 critical of the USA... the point remains.

    Jump

  • Right? Like I don't like trump, but Biden did fuck all but slip into dementia, then they tried to slip in Kamala last minute and they are surprised they lost? Maybe if they had run a competitive candidate we wouldn't be here.

    But asking any political party to be responsible for their actions is too much to ask for.

  • What is something you achieved this year that you're proud of?

    Jump

  • I made more money in one month than I did in any one of the first three years I started in my field.

    It finally feels like the work and dedication paid off.
