I thought I was on /r/flying for a sec. Nice to see aviation people in Lemmy

Doesn’t feel like a threat. Feels like a scare tactic to people who don’t know enough about how flying works.

There is no way in hell he gets away with physically shutting out other planes. NORAD is US + Canada. Canada is extremely unlikely to acquiesce, so he’ll have to use unpaid American military. Because ICE is not building fast enough (ICE is his excuse to say, “see? I’m not using military on civilians!”), he relies on the military to keep a hold on the populace. If they become too disgruntled, he loses or at least greatly impedes his progress towards his desired control of the entire US government.

If he declares that towered airports are now class G, then airplanes are still able to land but at a greatly reduced rate

If he makes them into TFR’s, then he’ll add time for planes to go around them.

His “threat” feels completely toothless.

What does this even mean? How do you “close certain parts of the airspace”?

Do you invoke NORAD to prevent airplanes from flying into certain portions of US air space? Do you NOTAM certain airspace as class G? Do you maintain the class so VFR can’t fly through and have IFR avoid it? Do you put a TFR across the airspace?

Come on, dude. Be specific. FAA is DOT. You have the means to find someone who knows the correct words.

Yeah I missed my chance to land at a bravo during COVID

You wouldn’t fly a Delta? I mean, I’d avoid Bravos but it’s not like my area is full of untowered airports

Coding is a bit like puzzles. Sometimes the pieces must go together in the right way. But the great thing is, we are cutting some of the pieces so we can change some things, but not all.

World of Goo?

Amelia近幾年去過香港嗎？

That says a lot about the Dutch

The elephant in the room is why did this kiddy diddler get selected? If he didn’t get selected, they wouldn’t need to deny his visa

Fly VFR and make everything a class G.

Fucking stupid? Yes, but flying is not necessary.

Fuck Whitmer. She’s for the car companies and not for the people. She puts on a show but does nothing of substance.

I don’t know why but I foresee Pam Bondi intervening. Something about losing local support and losing a big item on their agenda?

Clearly.

I am not the knitter or crocheter in the family.

Maybe Ubuntu changed since I last used it. I looked and it looks like interim means non-LTS.

coreutils is, well, important. It’s fine to bring new software in, but you have to test it. And they haven’t tested enough.

Ubuntu has, at least long stretches of the past decade, been a really good server and desktop for me. Having bugs that prevent updates is not acceptable for a server OS. Yes, you should be able to manually intervene but I expect a higher standard from Ubuntu.

Changes like swapping out coreutils for the rust variant really needs to go through Debian first. Are there bugs that trickle through Debian? Yes. But Debian is stable. Ubuntu should be too. They are basically testing a core function in production. Ubuntu releases are not supposed to be betas. At least, historically, that has held true.

I hope whoever is managing this does it better than Ubuntu’s rust debacle

Tragedeigh isn’t a community on Lemmy, is it? This would be perfect
