Everyone saw this coming. In fact, one of my favorite dry YouTube narrative makers, DoNotEat01 did a 40 minute min-doc in 2019 explaining exactly why The Loop would fail.

I could see value in a discussion of how our culture’s wish fulfillment fantasies affect our real life decisions. Such as how we keep trying to use the military as a Swiss Army knife by attempting nation building when it’s a stiletto, made only to kill.

Social Media was a mistake.

Right?

No lol that’s absolutely untrue

Twitter was a mistake.

You bring up a good point about the glide path. It strangely hits close to where he is, but the thing is, he didn’t need to bail so soon. These planes can glide for miles. Even commercial airlines can glide a long ways. I am not a pilot, (I have flown a plane before), but I can tell you this: losing an engine isn’t as…

When looking at the airplane locations and headings, they don’t make sense:

I used to be selected for jury duty every year or two and they’d bring me as far as they could without having to discount me from selection for seven years. Finally, in comments as to why I shouldn’t be selected for jury duty, I wrote that I go by my own code which may or may not coincide with the law written to…

I don’t think anyone who read the headline thought the driver was speaking directly to Jeff Bezos.

Unfortunately for the farmer, the John Deere technician is going to have to come out to train the computer to recognize the new replacement windshield.

Who should be blamed for the lack of proper training for the dispatcher?

. . . the dispatcher working for Amazon, following Amazon’s policies, relaying commands to an Amazon driver. Yeah, fucking Amazon is a guilty party here.

The dispatcher is in fact acting as a agent for Amazon, so the story and headline are completely valid.

What’s the mindset behind delivering packages in a tornado? What magic would keep them on a porch when even a truck would get tossed around?

Holy shit, child rapists, murderers and other far more horrible people get far less time than this.

I love option pricing on old cars that appears batshit to modern eyes. A big block engine only cost $292, but a radio was $203 and a big gas tank was $202. The price of A/C is covered up but was probably $500 or more.

And if you’re lucky, the delivery item is a ladder!

That’s where telephone poles come from, right?
