So far the outcome is overwhelmingly in favour of keeping their current "SRR" and Data Use Policy, by about 10:1.

Your snarky reply implies that we cannot continue without fossil fuels. If that's true, then we're just as screwed once they run out. So, we can either transition to clean energy sooner, or later, or never - pick one.

Agreed. We may or may not be at peak oil, but either way there's a heck of a lot more fossil fuel left to dig up, and I just cannot see any way that business will let themselves be denied that wealth.

I'd have agreed with you a few years ago when helping my family with their XP boxes, but in my experience starting with Vista things got a lot better (probably mostly because of UAC).

That's not really my point. To my knowledge, iOS is not intended as a safety-critical system, in the same way Windows isn't. Perhaps these documents are not safety critical, but as much as the airlines might do "testing", they cannot guarantee there's not a bug lurking in there.

Exactly. What happens when a bug causes the iPad or the doc reader app to crash? You can't tell me the OS and app were designed as safety-critical systems.

Maybe it's just me, but I still think of flying as a big deal. I don't go on aeroplanes much, but when I do, I always remember to appreciate it for the marvel it is. I still find the acceleration of takeoff to be pretty exciting as well.

I suppose the other 50% will be petrol or diesel powered. Will these fuels be affordable in 2032?

Just at the stations and not on the trains? That's cool to a certain extent but how long does the average traveller spend standing around on the platform? I'd have thought that by the time you've got through any registration faff / entering your e-mail address it's time to get on the train.

Wait a minute, I've seen a photo a bit like that before. Quick, call the lawyers!
