“We already knew multiple materials glued together to make a pressure hull was inferior to using the same material throughout.”

That middle A stands for aviation.

How are you on the hook?  The rich aren’t people and you’re not rich.

Why do you care? According to the audience on this site, the rich aren’t people.

I thought you all want to eat the rich.  The only upset you should be experiencing is that you can’t devour the leftover bits of these folks.  Don’t pretend you care about the passengers.

California is the fifth largest economy in the world.  I moved there on purpose, and the residents of these shithole states are just mad that our Trumpcunts are taking up space in the garbage parts of their states.  

Did they convert the old mall building, or did they tear down and build anew? If they reused the mall building, homelessness advocates would pitch a fit that the building isn’t suitable for housing, and in this case, they wouldn’t be wrong. But if they tore down the mall and built new buildings, affordable housing…

Dead and dying malls are interesting to visit, too, in their own way.

Yeah, theme parks might be a good comparison. South Coast Plaza actually gets a lot of international customers. I’m sure they’re doing other things while here - it’s Orange County, so Disneyland is close and LA isn’t too far away - and some probably have family here, too. But apparently those customers have a…

I don’t see how this gets stopped in the long run. Even if the unions got the studios to agree not to use digital actors for the duration of the next contract, they have no power to prevent companies outside of the studios from continuing to improve the technology. By the end of the next contract, the technology will…

There are some malls still doing well.  They tend to be “destination malls,” that are very large and have high-end stores, so they attract people from beyond the immediate area.  Here in CA, South Coast Plaza fits that bill - it’s the third largest mall in the US, and has the highest sales in dollar terms per square…

Yep, I was born in 1981 - aged 42 - and the peak years of The Simpsons pretty much line up with my teenage years. I suspect anyone my age up to about ten years older were the main audience when it was new, but then a bunch of Millennials saw it in reruns or with older siblings.  I’d guess people now 30-50 would…

People are doing their cause no favors by disingenuously claiming cancel culture doesn’t exist when things like you mentioned above are going on.

Right?  I’m right on the edge between Gen X and Millennial, and I’m 42.

Interesting, yeah I wonder if it is regional.  

Who wants fingerprints on their laptop screen? Gross.

Right?  Quit being a cheap, grifting piece of shit and just get a membership.  

Are you sure you don’t mean the cheesy jalapeño ones in the light green bag?  We loved those but they went away during the pandemic.  The salsa verde ones were available the whole time here in CA.

I’m also not clear why I would really care that workers in China are getting laid off.
