Oh yeah incredibly clear that a mythos is better than a fable /s

Oh come now, this rolled release is now the standard for frontier models. Also, the fact that AA hasn't updated their page is not a scandal, just a launch day hiccup.

I'm not religious but I'm somewhat repulsed by the snarky replies to your faith.

Same reasoning as "water use" in data-centers. A complete inversion of the dominant drivers of the ecological issues they purportedly care about.

Mythos?
Wait until they find out what's in a powerplant!
Ha. I was in London for work and had my phone snatched on a work trip the second day. Kings Cross area. Massive pain to get insurance to figure it out and I had to buy a burner.

Two guys hopped a wide sidewalk, never stopped and were back into traffic in an instant.

Everyone gave me the "you should't have been dressed that way" response. Police did nothing dispite certainly plenty of evidence (video, from apple, etc. etc).

There has been various modernization efforts in the past correct? I wonder why nothing has succeeded. Math has always been somehow very tied to keeping credit and personal achievement close to the "source" it feels. Conjectures always coming with names attached, or this symbol named after a whimsical stoke of a pen.
This isn't reddit.
Someone compare the pollution to the average steel mill. The focus here is political and clickbait focused.

Possible it's in the training set then?
Zero interest rate policy.
The future of warfare does seem to be incredibly cheap autonomous (or nearly so) drones. I know Palmer Lucky's working on this, but his offering is still incredibly high priced...

Who's looking at this problem with the perspective that these should be 'ammo' and not 'aircraft'?

A bit of a stretch to say that public schools breed nonconformity?

I don't see the relevance to hackers here. This is simple political commentary and belongs on /r/politics or whatever.

First article: "For no reason". Second article: "Mighta been the drugs."
And this course of events is certain why? Because you've stated so?
How about citizens of Seattle when the CHAZ was operating? Were they majority for that?
I've had the bad fortune of dealing with iLO in the past. There's absolutely nothing surprising to me that it would be remotely exploitable, as well as default remote accessible.
Explain please?
Surely they flew cargo? This seems absent in the article.

I wonder how we'll look back at this in 10 years.
If one believes as you do that they are "nutjob senators", it should be all the more important that you're appraised as to their thinking and thought process no?

Why would you choose selective ignorance to those which wield power?

I think the sophisticated reader (NYTs being the 'paper of record' and all), should be able to be exposed to commonly held opinions of their political enemies, even if the rhetoric or 'factual basis' they might hold in disrepute.

The fact is the NYT can't even put the words of a sitting US Senator on their pages, with no implicit _agreement_ of its factual value, and instead decapitates their own for it, shows crippling ideological constraint.

This implies the _vast majority_ is precisely the opposite. With ~75% being personal use.
OK, then what do you call something astronomically worse than this, say a mile wide astroid strike?

You see that you have no more granularity? That you can't describe it as worse than a meter of sea level rise?

"Doomsday Glacier".

At some point we'll run out of hyperbole right? What could be worse than doomsday? Perhaps, apocalypse? Maybe cataclysm?

> The vast majority is flight training

Can you substantiate that claim for me? I've never seen a breakdown, since you've claimed 'vast majority' perhaps you know better.

A huge amount of this, "spraying lead on your head" is not for training or any similar purpose, but for amusement.

This might be my hobby horse, and I've commented to this effect a few times in the past, but here goes:

Hobby aviation still uses leaded fuel and this is detectable near regional airports. The primary reason for this that the vast majority of the existing fleet is stuck in the 1970s essentially as new airframes and engine designs are expensive and viewed as risky.
