Looks like a landing gear fire. Before it gets asked, no that's not a Boeing 737. Frontier's fleet consists entirely of Airbus A32x aircraft.

For what it's worth, just about every panel like this is certified to have a specific number of fasteners missing. A lot of the time there will be some other qualifiers such as not missing the leading fastener or not missing adjacent fasteners. Having a bunch in a row like this incident would probably not be ok, but I couldn't say without the maintenence manual.
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.
A combination of Micro Center, FS.com, and eBay for computer parts. Anything worth researching I'll try and buy direct from the manufacturer.
Dumb cheap stuff still goes to Amazon because if I need a $2 female USB-B to male USB-C adaptor or something like that I'm not willing to go through more than about 5 mins of searching and I know there's some random blob of letters company on the Amazon marketplace that will give me something that functions. I definitely wait until I have something critical or reach $30+ before actually placing the order though.
If you don't want to use DNS for whatever reason. Then Firefox/Mull with Ublock origin for the browser only
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.
My bank gives me 0.02% on my savings account with them. My credit union gives me 3.94% on my checking account. I keep the minimum in the bank so I can use their other services, my CU only has ATMs near me.
Use ranch dressing. I was informed that was for gays and city folk only. I really had no response to that nugget of wisdom.
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.
I live in a major city. The nearest Kroger is 2 blocks away. The nearest non-kroger is 7 miles away. And I have to drive past 3 Kroger's to get there. It's ridiculous.
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
I had a squatter get mylastname.com after my dad died. After a while I guess they noticed that I registered mylastname.net and orffered to sell me mylastname.com I didn't respond and they let it expire. I should probably register it.
Looks like an airforce trainer, probably had some sort of malfunction. Looks like it landed back at Shepard AFB. I wouldn't worry about it, minor emergencies happen fairly regularly.
For US carriers off the top of my head, Spirit and frontier are all airbus fleets. Allegiant has one 737 in their fleet I think and is otherwise Airbus. JetBlue and Breeze have no Boeing products. All the big airlines have lots of Boeing products.
I'd say through throw Truenas Scale or Ubuntu server on it and try and come up for uses for it. If it doesn't seem useful after a month or 2 then shut it down nothing lost. The only real danger is that it's a gateway drug and before you know it your thinking about upgrading to a 48u rack to put your pile of networking equipment and servers and your basement sounds like a jet engine.
I appreciate all of the weird instance names in here
I used to work in a job that involved handling radioactive materials. We had dosimeter badges to track long term exposure to radiation. One pass through the full body scanner at a TSA checkpoint would make the dosimeter badge come back from the lab at greater than monthly allowable exposure. I'll take the grope.
I used to not be able to sleep on airliners, but then I got a job that required I fly on one once a week. By far the best way to make time pass fast.
If we get some big breakthrough that sends storage costs and bandwidth cost way down then I think it's possible. Otherwise between the astronomical costs involved and the difficulty attracting an audience and creators, I don't think it would happen unless Google axes YouTube for whatever reason.
As a policy I don't answer the phone with an unknown number from any area code except my work HQ, I don't answer the door for anyone that looks like they are paid to be there, I don't open mail if there's any hint it might be a mass mailer. At the end of the day, no matter what methodology they use, they are always going to get a bias from people who are willing to participate and be contactable.
Does that permanently delete posts? Why would you do that?
Reduce the footprint of the install. Text posts and comments are negligible but pictures chew through storage.
Then Firefox decides that it's absolutely necessary that updates get applied this second and refuses to do anything until you restart it.
If only voting early would get me off the political spam list.
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.
Bought a kobo recently. Bought it direct from Kobo, Walmart wasn't involved at all in any step. Worked perfectly out of the box with Caliber too. Nice little device, library interface could use some work but it's functional.
For network cables, FS.com. Their specialty is fiber optics and they have good transceivers and cables for really cheap prices and they also sell a tool to flash vendor info onto transceivers so if you have some picky proprietary box you can still use generic transceivers with it. Their copper products, DACs, regular cat6 patch cables, etc are good too. I haven't tried their NICs or switches though.
Well yesterday I was on the clock for 12.5 hours, 7 hrs was spent operating equipment, ~3hrs on prep and clean up and the rest of the time was spent waiting for the next task. A pretty typical day for me. Today is my last day of my 5 days on and I have 4 days off.
Pilot.
Went to college and learned to fly at the college flight school. Going to college isn't totally necessary but having a degree is helpful, going to a college flight school is a terrible idea, local mom and pop flight schools are faster and cheaper for equally good training. The worst mistake I made in my career was flight instructing at the college flight school after I graduated. It was in a bad weather state so I couldn't get a lot of hours, I was supposedly paid $21/hr but the way it was structured I averaged out at around $7/hr with no benefits as a 1099.
I got hired by a small cargo op in 2019. They'd hire me about 6 months earlier than when I would have qualified for a regional airline. It seemed like a questionable move at the time, but $50k to fly a little tiny jet seemed like a fortune. In retrospect it was a really good move when all my flight instructor friends got furloughed by the regional airlines when covid started. Normally I'd say airlines are the right move, but timing is everything.
After 3 years flying cargo I was tired of having my circadian rhythm get obliterated every week and I got hired to fly for a big bizjet company. Fun job, went to lots of cool airports and flew some interesting people, new hire pay was great, top end pay was terrible and the benefits were awful.
I got hired by one of the big US airlines in the hiring rush from 2022-23. Pay is amazing, benefits are really good, the work is somewhat boring but easy, and I have a strong union. 10/10 big airlines are great, I'm not leaving unless the company goes under, which is always a possibility. Now the only problem is that Boeing can't seem to get their shit figured out so the industry has stopped hiring again because there aren't enough new planes even though demand is fine.
TLDR: timing is everything.
flax seeds. Lots of fiber, omega-3s, protein, and vitamin B. The best part is that ground flax seed tastes like nothing so you can add it to whatever.
I like the catppuccin cursors (along with the rest of catppuccin) https://github.com/catppuccin/cursors
Well don't buy old enterprise hardware then, that's the noisy stuff. 1tb isn't a lot by modern storage standards, however if you managed to fill it up with notes and books I would be impressed. Games are another matter though. You could fit thousands of emulated games from the 80s and 90s or like 7 from the last few years, it depends.
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.
I just assume if there is a privacy policy, then the policy is no privacy.
What you are looking for is a RAG and is one of the few legitimately useful implementations of LLMs outside the wall of hype.
Got an HPE Aruba switch, it's the only HP thing I've ever had that I like. Getting new firmware from HP was a pita though.
Well when the LLM craze collapses in the nearish future we'll have a bunch more nuclear power in the 2030’s. So that's good I guess?
The definitional boundary is where navigable airspace begins. You do own the non-navigable airspace above your property and you would have a trespassing argument if a drone entered that area without your permission. Where exactly the boundary is between navigable and non is a bit fuzzy but generally it will be at the highest object in the property eg. a treetop.
I still wouldn't mess with the drone though, as another commenter said interfering with an aircraft of any type is a very serious crime.
The paperwork cost isn't negligible at all. For example a company I used to work for had to replace a simple O-ring that failed. It's an old part and quite rare these days and cost $800 to replace. You could buy a functionally equivalent (likely better) uncertified part for about 5 cents. That is why uncertified parts are such a problem, because certified ones are so incredibly expensive. Plenty of companies would love to step in and buy a few thousand O rings and sell them for $400 and a few are willing to forge a paper trail to make it happen. It's a problem that I don't really think will be ever totally solved without making certification too easy and potentially sacrificing safety by having bad certified parts.
Working out. I finally realized that my psychological issue with working out was doing a long duration thing that I didn't like. My solution was a high intensity short workout which doesn't bother me at all from a mental perspective, so now I do burpees. Quick and over before I have a chance to not like it.
That's some bigly code there.
