Asking why the pilot didn’t divert or see the plane is a legitimate question. Asking why air traffic control didn’t redirect is legitimate given the time he asked it (I believe now we know that ATC tried to redirect).

Look the guy is going to be the death of this country, however, the questions themselves, as he posted them, aren’t off base. But again, he’s the fucking president and maybe he could pretend to act with a LITTLE decor.

Pasting my reply regarding Trumps comments from another thread:

The questions he’s asking aren’t wrong to ask. The real problem, IMO, is that he’s the president and can’t simply post those questions publicly. He’s an idiot, though, so this is what we get.

But seriously, he also asks why the Black Hawk pilot didn’t do ANYTHING to avoid a known flight path and I’ve asked the same thing.

As for Ackman: he’s just another idiot guessing.

I loved the first 3 Burnout games. I HATED Paradise. I just greatly dislike open world racing games.

It’s a valid question, but I just watched a press conference where somebody explained that these aren’t rookie pilots but pilots looking to log the proper amount of flight hours.

I didn’t realize rates were THAT low right before 2020 so thanks for reminding me. I remember him, at some point, wanting to have negative rates.

We didn’t go into it with a zero percent rate. The rate was implemented as it began and everything shut down. An understandable move at the time with the information they had available to them.

Ultimately, rates were going to need an upward correction with or without COVID.

One of the biggest victories coming out of Covid was the Fed’s ability to keep inflation under check better than most other wealthy nations. Powell, by many measures, is one of the few good decisions Trump ever made.

I was worried after the rate drop last month that the fed was too comfortable, so today’s news is GOOD for inflation.

As of this moment: $5.49 for 12 large brown.

Last week I was able to get $4.49 for 12 large cage free.

Bird flu is obviously influencing prices quite a bit lately.

People pushing back like this will be the only way to stop them. Sometimes the resistors will lose. Sometimes they’ll win. It matters either way.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/24/us/ice-agents-attempt-entry-into-chicago-elementary-school/index.html

Around 11:15 a.m., the agents attempted to enter Hamline Elementary School, Chicago Public Schools’ Chief Education Officer Bogdana Chkoumbova said. School officials initially said the agents were from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which ICE denied. The district said it later learned the agents who visited the school were from the Secret Service.

School district already corrected themselves.

 

Every new chip level, I struggle for what feels like an eternity with the Black Deck. It’s, so far, the only deck I continue to find frustrating. Anyone have any good tips for dealing with it?

 

Photon, on mobile browser, seems to “snap” to the beginning of each post when scrolling. Is there a way to turn this feature off?

 
 

Long story short, my son plays Minecraft on the iPad and used some gold coins to purchase an add-on (“TNT!”) from the marketplace. Unlike other addons that work fine, this one gives a “Download Failed” error message every time he tries to install it. I can not, for the life of me, figure out where a support option is for Mojang to help resolve the issue or refund the coins. Does anyone here have any suggestions?

 
 
 

Looking for help in solving a problem where the lower door hinge pin on my entry door keeps creeping up and causing the deadbolt to become slightly misaligned making it more difficult to lock. Reading online, I keep coming across suggestions of tightening a screw that’s supposed to lock the pin in place but my hinges don’t seem to have that screw.

Anyone have any other ideas on how to fix this problem?

Yankees get Jon Berti from Chi Sox, Send Ben Rortvedt to Rays

I guess they’re going all in on Austin Wells. Wasn’t Rortvedt the next big thing a year ago?

I don’t want to post too much and spoil for people who haven’t watched it yet, but I can’t believe the season is already over. The table settling in the final episode is great, but the almost spiteful desire to show this is its own timeline by making some very permanent decisions seems to remove some of the layers of complexity that made the original story line so good.

 

So, the team and Judge lied about it being about getting someone else at bats and this being general pre-season wear and tear?
