  • Boeing's safety culture falls short despite the company's efforts to fix it, according to experts

  • COMAC, but there would be no way a new manufacturer would be able to keep up with global demand.

    Airbus doesn't have the safety issues Boeing has. Airbus put in the proper R&D including safety into the A320neo to make it a safe plane. Boeing needed to play catch up to make something that could compete against Airbus's plane and decided to cut corners.

  • California puts Waymo robotaxi expansion application on hold until June 19 - Reuters

  • I wouldn't say it's MUCH better than 10 years ago, but they're definitely making an effort to expand the train system. Blue Line goes all the way to Union Station now instead of just 7th & Metro. Purple line is in development to go to at least UCLA. Expo line, not sure if that was completed before you left, but connects from Santa Monica to Union Station now.

  • Not sure if you've been to LA, but they have been working on expanding the train system in preparation for the Olympics. So they're trying to do both, use the private sector with Waymo, and were already using your tax dollars to expand public transportation. Seems like a win for commuters to me, unless you're an Uber driver.

  • Donald Trump ranked as worst US president in history, with Joe Biden 14th

    Jump

  • I'm a little mixed on this. I do think he should be lower on the rankings due to a lot of his shitty policies.

    However, he has also done some significant differences that still affect us today. He did make GPS globally available to the public at no cost. Could you imagine having to pay to use your GPS every time, or not having GPS available to you at all unless you were in the military?

  • Nikki Haley PAC Out Raises Donald Trump by Millions: Report

    Jump

  • leaving us with a president that we'll over most of America didn't vote for.

    Keep in mind that in the last 30-something years, Republicans have only won the popular vote once for the Presidency, and that was back in 2004.

  • Florida advances law banning children under 16 from using social media

    Jump

  • They're not wrong about the addiction to dopamine hits. However, this is such a big waste of time and money on such a poor way to handle this.

  • So we're just making Google Assistant even more useless now?

    Jump

  • I noticed that Hey Google wasn't working from the lock screen anymore. Pretty annoying.

  • Are there any apps with kind of an educational feed for mindless scrolling?

    Jump

  • I'm going to recommend getting an app called Feedly. You can setup what you want to see on the feed. Put only educational or scientific articles, or customize it with sources that meets your need.

  • Fossil may have given up on Wear OS watches, ceded victory to Google and Samsung

    Jump

  • On the Skagen side, it looks like they completely stopped making the hybrids. They pretty much took down the smartwatch/hybrid section.

  • Why are all phones smaller than 7"?

    Jump

  • This is my assumption, the demand for people that want a 7" phone does not justify the cost of development and manufacturing. Yes, there will be people that would want it, but just like the iPhone Mini, the demand wasn't justified to continue producing the smaller phone.

    Generally 6" to 6.5" seems to be the sweet spot that is large enough to use, and small enough that it fits in my pocket comfortably.

  • Supreme Court will hear a case that could undo Capitol riot charge against hundreds, including Trump

    Jump

  • As much as I really dislike the current SCOTUS, I do have faith that a majority would understand that if they allow this to continue happening, it would set an extremely dangerous precedent to allow more insurrections without repercussions. The only justice willing to allow this is probably Justice Clarence Thomas. Fuck that guy.

  • YouTube just made it harder to avoid ads with a tiny skip button

    Jump

  • Their while goal is to make the experience so terrible that you pay for YouTube Premium.

  • Where is a cheap site to create photo holiday cards?

    Jump

  • Thanks for everyone's responses! Taking everyone's advice and doing it local instead of online.

  • Where is a cheap site to create photo holiday cards?

  • The other user is correct. I'd like to design and print out photo Christmas cards and mail them.

    Kmart Australia Pulls 'Merry Ham-Mas' Christmas Bag After Jewish Protests

    Jump

  • Aside from the controversy, As a US citizen, I'm surprised that Australia still have K-Marts. I haven't seen one of those in like almost a decade.

  • Tumblr is reportedly on life support as its latest owner reassigns staff

    Jump

  • The site was on life support way before letting people go. It's already a sinking ship since the porn rule.

  • Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 vs Tensor G3: Is Google's flagship chip already outdated?

    Jump

  • The Tensor chip is not based on Snapdragon. It shouldn't be compared against it at all. A more comparable chip would be Exynos 2400.

  • A grandmother was fatally shot in her car by an officer. It’s not his force’s only deadly encounter under scrutiny | CNN

    Jump

  • The officer must've felt his life was threatened as she was driving away. That's why he had to shoot.
