The most likely interpretation of "reconfigurable flight controls" is that the aircraft can be made to handle like other aircraft through the fly-by-wire control system, so you can see how other aircraft would handle specific situations from the cockpit.

Its been done a few times - there was a Gulfstream II which was designed to handle like the Space Shuttle for training purposes.

They've not joined us. Trump can still rule by veto. He can continue to ignore Congress and start new wars and continue with Iran. If anything given the only thing he has any control over is foreign policy things are going to get worse in our relationship with the USA with only Israel, North Korea and Russia benefitting.

Those of us outside of the USA who Trump has spent this term abusing, mocking and punishing for no good reason are continuing with our decoupling from it. Unfortunately for Trump and you that basically includes every other first world economy.

The national debt is, the amount of Americans going bankrupt from medical bills is, the amount of American farmers going bust is, the amount of fentanyl zombies is, the amount of American citizens murdered by US law enforcement is, the amount of children some barely out of daipers being put before a court with no legal representation is.

As someone who lives in a country where every single vehicle on the road here is imported, I have no problems with BYD being subsidised if the price I pay is lower.

I don't know why people expected anything else from an exchange that refuses to have any oversight from financial regulators.

Please go read about the facts of that. All they handed over was the recovery email address. And they didn't just hand it over on demand, it was complying with a court order and after their own lawyers had made sure that what they had requested was legal under Swiss law. It is the same as every company operating anywhere in the world is legally required to do. Every company has to comply with a legal court order issued against them in the country they're operating and those courts only issue those orders if the alleged offence committed is illegal in that court's country. And as Proton cannot see files, email contents, or any other personal information related to users' accounts, that information cannot be shared with authorities on request. Literally the only thing Proton can see is a recovery email address.

Honestly at this point if AI spits out a Proton Drive linux client in the next couple of months it kind of proves the CEO's point given that his programming team still haven't done over 2 years later despite several unofficial clients using rsync being released.

Loser thinking is dropping everything at the drop of a hat based on nothing more than one article written by somebody nobody has heard of on a fringe website.

Well, firstly I had a “follow only” feed when I quit Twitter in 2022 - I just want that for Reddit.

There were short periods when Twitter tried to make the algorithmic feed the default, but they always switched back to your personal feed being the default after outcry. So Musk hasnt fixed anything there, it was always there.

Secondly, no, I wont be using Twitter ever again. Or whatever its called these days.

Their current feed on mobile is a mix of stuff you follow and stuff they think you are interested in based on posts you interact with.

Which basically means that you are shit scared to interact with anything that isnt from a group you have already joined, because once you do, your feed is filled with posts from subs that are minutely related to the topic you clicked on.

For example, if I click on a post which contains an interesting local event story without checking what sub its from, and its from a local town or county sub from the US I soend the next week tellingReddit I really dont want posts from every fucking state, county, town or village specific sub in the US.

Or I click on a story about an interesting car event without realising the story was posted in a car specific sub, for the next week Im getting rid of every car related sub in my feed.

Right now Im doing this for UK home improvement and DIY subs, because I dared look at a specific story. Im getting recommended shit like home made pizza oven subs

My biggest method of interaction with Reddit by far, is telling Reddit what I dont want. And one single accidental click can result in hours or days of shitty mildly related content being forced on you.

All I want is Twitters feed from before 2022 - the one which just shows posts from people or groups you follow, and thats it. Why cant I have that?

Oh my sweet summer child you really believe that the tech companies pay taxes on those data centers?

No idea how they came to the conclusion that millions of people are facing a prospect of ruined homes and businesses. The UK gets hammered by massive winter storms with 80MPH plus winds several times a year every year and has for as long as I remember. Quite interestingly and fact that she failed to mention is the extreme weather hits the UK from the west having travelled from the Caribbean, and the south having travelled up from the Sahara. The UK could reduce it's emissions to zero today and it would make absolutely no difference at all.

No matter what we do moving to renewables it's all getting undone by the continual ramping up of demand by AI companies and data centres. We're literally destroying the planet faster so people can make funny cat videos. Then there's the rampant consumerism, all the mountains of shite people buy that ends up in the bin or a cupboard never to see the light of day again within weeks or even sometimes days. It all needs to end.

Unfortunately by the time it's detected that and someone has blocked the internet access the damage may already have been done given the speed these models work and the bandwidth they have available to them.
