Thanks for checking! Looks like the requirement was fulfilled.

Has this always been the case? Because I thought the same sort of failure and subsequent damage is what caused a DC-10 to lose all hydraulics and crash back in 1989.

IIRC, the same sort of catastrophic engine failure (fan blade disintegrated) took out all of the hydraulics on a DC-10 that crashed in Sioux City about 30 years ago. So agreed, this could have been much worse.

I worked at a video store when this came out. Deadly Prey was quickly added to a list of movies I had, which included Death Before Dishonor, Invasion USA, and pretty much any movie with Michael Dudikoff or Richard Lynch. If I didn’t like you, and you asked me for a good movie to watch that weekend, you got something…

Perfect isn’t the standard, safe is.

FTFY

You have to admit the NRA are good at what they do, which is drive their base into a froth and furor, convinced that some great mass of powerful people are just waiting to pounce on - and annihilate - the poor defenseless second amendment. And take our guns.

Haha yes! When were (fortunately infrequently) required to attend some of these ridiculous, day-long, gargantuan off-site team powwows, I and a couple of others had BS bingo cards, filled with Core Competencies,Vertical Markets and Robust Solutions etc. When we hit bingo we had to say it, which misled a lot of…

You get all the stars today, sir.

When I was in the corporate world, at the beginning of meetings I used to ask “whose deck are we looking at today?” I was not upwardly mobile.

You’re making several assumptions here.

I agree with you that Netflix is getting the lion’s share of criticism in this area, no doubt due to the ubiquity of Netflix’s content in popular culture combined with their ongoing success. It’s like any other company that has zigged and done well, lots of folks want to decry their success as destroying “the good…

I’m not going to speculate on what the general audience thinks, but TCP being shoehorned so sloppily and carelessly into the mythos doesn’t sit well with me. We can reconvene in October and see how we feel when Operation Cloverfield comes out.

The problem with the Cloverfield franchise is less how they are tied together, and more how they function on their own. Cloverfield and 10 Cloverfield Lane did not appear to have any connection to each other when I saw them, and I had hope that the series might be joined by a common theme (characters caught up in…

we are taking steps with Waymo to ensure our Lidar and software represents just our good work.

I think we need to investigate the non-Jews on the list. They may be part of some other, even more dangerous, long-persecuted minority and we wouldn’t want to be caught off guard. They could be planning even more deadly Twitter attacks while we focus on the Jews.

When it comes to marriage, the time for compromise is before decisions are made and actions are taken. This occurred because one or the other (or both) refused to compromise, so at issue is their ability to resolve problems, which is sure to come up again.  At this point, the compromise will either be “I’ll have to…

This drove me nuts: “What’s the Ask?”

At first I laughed. And then I saw all the crap that he/she left in the street, and now I’m mad. I guess if you don’t pay attention to signs or streetlights, then the effluvia of your misadventures is probably beneath your contemplation, as well.

HOAs don’t pop up after the fact, they predate the construction of the neighborhood. Don’t want an HOA? Don’t buy there. There are tons of properties without.
