I feel this is like the least controversial thing to happen in Austrian politics in the last 10 years… There is a long list of shit before this one that the ÖVP should be sued for…

Not sure I’m ready for suicide memes.

This Reuters article provides a decent summary: https://www.reuters.com/legal/case-against-elon-musks-56-billion-pay-package-2024-01-30/

The full, current list is: Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates

Adding Turkey and Hungary would lead to: SHITBRICEEU, which I find amusing :)

Looks like bananas will be going up in price tomorrow :)

While I understand the sentiment, such action doesn’t match the long term goals of the bloc to unify the continent. Another solution needs to be found to ensure single bad actors cannot hold up actions which severely impact the remaining stakeholders - I have no idea how it could be done though.

Xoxo, Another useless armchair observer

Thanks for the suggestion, I started looking into LaTeX during my studies but never went through with learning it. Others have suggested Scribus, is there a reason why you might opt for LaTeX over that for this case?

DigiKam and it’s associated plugins are what I use to sort, manage and store photos. It does have facial recognition option too, but I have not used it until now.

I noticed that as part of the LaTeX description, thanks for confirming! I will take a look at scribus.

I’ve also seen it used in usability design, where it is helpful to provide users relatable information (e.g apply equivalent force to the weight of a 1kg bag)

I have often seen kg-force to mean the weight component only, assuming gravity is 9.8m/s^2.

Just making sure you understood ‘g’ here is grams (so 1 kg or 9.8 N) and not 1000 G as in the force of gravity (which would be 9800 N / kg).

**Edit: I am wrong, it is quoted at around 1000 times the force of gravity. That is insane.

Zoom out to the 5 year graph and it tells another story.

Also such events (which are non-catastrophic) are not entirely uncommon.

You need an incredibly robust quality management system to even achieve certification (allowing you to place on the market) when creating systems which include life support function, or functions which potentially could kill a user. All potential changes both within and outside of the manufacturers’ control MUST be assessed and constantly monitored so such issues CANNOT arise.

No one should be able to legally place an unsafe app on the market, or legally perform changes to the app without the necessary checks and balances.

Medical device approvals in most countries are definitely not the wild west. Although they are not perfect.

The daily mail is not a reliable news source. Your friend should speak to their healthcare specialist for advice on flying if they haven’t already

I mean, I get what you’re saying and all… buuuut the CO2/bomb WOULD be great on an electric bomber.

A man named Michel Thomas created a series of audio lessons to teach a number of languages, including German. He does it in a simulated classroom type of environment where one “student” makes common mistakes and he corrects them, so you get to hear someone else make the mistake first.

He also teaches you the necessary words to enable you to start understanding others speaking he language quickly. I found combining this with Duolingo and the super cheesy Extr@s TV series (once you have the basics) allowed me to go from 0 to speaking to people within 6 weeks and understanding 95% within 6 months.

I learnt Spanish and German from his audiobooks. They are worth the money if you can afford it and/or cannot pirate it.

Gotta boost that birth rate somehow

Even the smaller competitors like Bombardier would have an interest in this, even if they are not the manufacturers of similar sized aircraft, a loss of faith in the aviation industry hurts everyone too. Plus suppliers etc.

As for the investigators (I know you meant FAA, not FCC), we have a similar issue in medical devices - you need seriously well educated experts to perform the investigations, and it is hard to find any without industry experience which wouldn’t look good on paper. The solution is to try as hard as you can to not have ex-employees audit their ex-bosses, but it isn’t always possible so we accept some overlap. It doesn’t mean these people don’t take their job seriously.

Oof… Big miss by me…thanks
