Only if there is a pressure differential. Once a beer can fills with water, you could drop it in the Marianas Trench and it would probably make it to the bottom without so much as a dent. The plane wasn’t a submarine. Once it fills with water, it could drift down relatively intact. 

Oh, man, I really really want to get either a 4c or a Lotus evora. How has your ownership been with the 4C? Also, how do you feel about the Giulia?

ContiContacts DWS are my go-to tire for my PNW locale. I put dedicated snow tires on my vehicle that takes me to the lifts, but everything else runs all year on the Continentals. They’re truly fantastic.

There’s a Lada Niva I pass every day when I take my kiddo to school and that was my first thought as well. 

We just need a bunch of mylar balloons in low earth orbit and problem solved.

because our entire society is built on a kind of Ponzi scheme requiring infinite growth. The current workers will cover the costs of the previous gen, but only as long as there are more of them. What happens when you have 1:1 parity between the retirees and the existing workforce? Yeah, people aren’t gonna want to…

This feels like the “green bubble hate”. Oh, the color of your text is slightly displeasurable to me, you peasant.

article: says the problem was the plane was assembled out-of-order due to supply chain woes and that is the cause of good number of its issues. 

I had the same though, but not nearly as eloquent. 

Run-flats suck.

I can hear the distinctive sound this makes just looking at the picture

That’s the OUTCOME of decades of stringent safety regulations and oversight, not the de facto state of air travel.

Air travel is safe because government oversight and regulation have forced it to be so. This is one area where the government has done a stellar job. These corporations would not have simply done it on their own, we would have routine crashes and deaths on the regular and the industry would have thrown their hands up…
