It actually works pretty well by chance more than anything else. 1000 ft is a really good altitude separation between aircraft. 500 is a good offset for irregular traffic too. Multiples of 150/300 m are more annoying to work with and 500/1000 m would waste an excessively large amount of airspace.
Idk about other brands but with Mazda you can call and get them to deactivate your car’s sim. IIRC in Subarus you can just physically unplug the communication unit.
“I think nano is the premier terminal text editor.”
I think a stupidly bright flashlight is preferable to a laser, but the idea of signalling for help with a light can work. Please don’t use lasers.
You say that, but once someone on the ground was shining a bright ass flashlight, not a laser but just as bright, at us and they were flashing …—… (SOS in Morse). Apparently we were the 4th plane to report it to air traffic control. I’ve never seen that before or since, but at least that time it worked.
A few jobs back I was working was on a little learjet that had a .75 thirst to weight ratio. Now that was a fun jet. Now I have 54k lbs if thrust in a plane that weighs anywhere from 100-160k lbs.
I have the opposite. Unlimited phone data, but it throttles above some high number that I’ve never hit. Capped home internet from crapcast, 1.3 TB, I haven’t hit it but I’ve come within a couple gigabytes.
They offer unlimited data if I use their modem/router for an extra $10/mo. Of course their modem comes with the wonderful feature of a public hotspot for any other Comcast customers in the area. I’ve been thinking about getting their modem, putting it in a metal box and just using pass through with my opnsense box.
Personally I would argue that allowing users to install extensions, mostly adblockers, you remove what’s probably the single most common real world vector for attackers, ads. So while chromium browsers may be more secure I would say you’re probably less likely to run into a problem with a firefox based browser with ublock origin on it, mobile or desktop.
For reference, Air Canada would need to give ~91% raise to get pilot pay back in line with where Air Canada pilots were in 2001. Post 9/11 the pilots took a terrible ‘save the company from bankruptcy’ deal, then during negotiations in 2012 the government forced a return to work deal with another terrible pilot contract.
For my single user instance, I can be charitable and say that it’s running on hardware that I already had that is running regardless on spare otherwise unused resources with a already registered domain so the only cost is time spent setting it up. Or I could apply all the costs from the server Lemmy, then it would be about $1200 initially plus ~$10/mo per user.
It’s the best. I started using it because it let me pre download as many regions as I wanted unlike OSMand. Having android auto integration is nice even if it’s very rough around the edges. Unfortunately google blocks android auto on non-play store versions because google.
As a professional pilot. I don’t think there’s any future in single pilot ops. Realistically the only time you need two pilots in a modern airliner is when shit’s fucked sideways, which is exactly the time the single pilot in this situation needs to work. Normal ops are easy. You could automate that no problem, what is hard is automating whatever combination of failures and weather the engineers never thought of.
Maybe in cargo, where the stakes are lower, it’ll happen. But in passenger ops, I think we’ll go from 2 pilots to no pilots before we go to one pilot.
When my dad died, no one renewed his domain, [last name].com, and some domain squatter bought it. A few years later the squatter noticed that I owned [last name].net and offered to sell it to me. I didn’t respond and I guess they figured out that an obscure last name isn’t worth anything and let it expire. I should probably buy it.
If you don’t want to use DNS for whatever reason. Then Firefox/Mull with Ublock origin for the browser only
Unsurprisingly, police are considering the case as a possible murder — but the classless poll still questioned whether readers thought the woman had died by suicide, murder, or accident. Beneath the question, a disclaimer that the poll was part of the company’s “insights from AI” somehow made the tasteless poll even more egregious.
Here’s the part about the actual poll.
Just wait until you encounter morse code abbreviations, some of which are still used in some industries. Like the wonderful X abbreviations, such as:
Wx - weather
Mx - maintainence
Tx/Rx - transmit/receive
Edit: I’m starting to think every industry totally did their own thing with morse abbreviations
Pi-hole is software that runs typically but not necessarily on a raspberry pi. It maintains a list of known advertising and tracking servers and blocks them by rerouting at the DNS level. For example an embed in a page tells your computer to contact tracking.facebook.com pihole tells your computer that that website is at 0.0.0.0 instead of it’s real IP address. Nifty thing is that you can redirect all of your DNS queries at the router so even devices that can’t normally run ad blockers can take advantage of it.
people sleeping or feeling worse around that time.
Well there’s a great big bastard of a nightlight out so I guess that makes sense.
My interests line up pretty well with my admin. I think that the instance should be pretty reliable as long as I want to keep using Lemmy.
I tried to give my mom a pihole, she made me get rid of it because it broke the NY times and some rando mobile game she plays. Some people can’t be helped.
