I take issue with your first paragraph. I would argue the opposite. The general public has no idea what a hundred bags looks like, but they know what an hour is and they can easily imagine counting off seconds in lost bags instead of Mississippis - “one lost bag, two lost bags, three lost bags, four lost bags...” or…

“Hour” does not appear in that table.

I guess we know how Waymo has decided to solve the trolley problem, huh? Better to possibly kill a minivan full of toddlers that definitely kill a bunch of unicyclers. Stopping and not killing anyone has been deemed an unrealistic possibility, apparently. Got places to be, can’t stop, won’t stop.

Comfort for the family: MB S-Series

per hour

I bet the cops travel him to jail and not drive him there.

OK, at first I thought BMPH was “Bags Mishandled Per Hour” but then saw it was the “Per Hundred”. On the surface that seems like the more “fair” way to report this, i.e. as a percentage of your throughput, but I got to thinking...

Why is that more fair?

All the airlines have access to the same public and the same…

“Tower, SW 2937, I guess we need a phone number.”

A good mechanic isn’t afraid to utter the phrases “I don’t know” or “I can’t”, even if it means money walking out the door. (I guess this is more of the honesty thing.)

Citroën

There’s no factual basis for any of their claims...

Indeed, I do have a Peugeot pepper mill in the kitchen. The burr and mechanism is great, the rest, not so much. The wood ring on the burr setting split and fell off, as far as I can tell through simple handling and not through any trauma. And the salt mill was for crap. The “burr” was just stamped steel (I guess…

With that depreciation nonsense he’s falling into the same trap that all these supposed financial gurus fall into: treating cars as if they are fixed assets or investments, like you would a house. They are not that. At least not here in the real world with the rest of us. They are consumable goods, no different than…

...they will be so appreciative of a meal they don’t have to cook...

I’ll second the auto part for the exact reasons given, but I’m going to have to insist on the dual zone part. Rarely are the two people in my front seats on the same page as to comfort and I’d like very much to not have to pull rank with the “I’m the driver” bit.

Mmmm...takinokoyaki?

The PIC advised the Jakarta ACC that BTK6723 experienced radio communication problem and currently the problem has been resolved...Yes, the pilots initially tried to hide the fact they fell asleep.

A $1000 tune-up.

Fixed. You forgot about the exponentiation. Manheim sold it for double what Tesla sold it for, which was already double what it was worth.

“So if you have $40 or $50 entrees and you have a $19 burger, and a third of the people get the burger, you’re losing a huge amount of money.”
