The entire aerospace industry has a looooooot of problems. Most of it is that aerospace required a metric ton of paperwork: Pretty much anything on an aircraft had to be traceable from the mill that makes the raw material all the way through to the final component, and inspection reports for dimensions and processing. The more features and processing there is on a part, the more paperwork there is. And paperwork takes a lot of time to do properly. Theres a reason a bolt put on an aircraft is multiple times more expensive than the same bolt you buy at a hardware store, and paperwork is why. The constant refrain I always fall back on is that aerospace companies sell paperwork, not parts.

Now, the paperwork is not the problem! That paperwork is so that if something goes wrong with anything investigators can go back and find what all had happened to the part that failed every step of the way and determine what sort of containment actions are needed. The problem is higher ups, in both large companies and small-time manufacturers, dont want to take the time to do the paperwork properly, or even make the parts properly sometimes.

And a ton of this is further exacerbated by Just In Time Delivery. It costs money to have parts in storage, both just from the standpoint of you spent the money on material and labor on a part thats not being sold, and theres insurance costs on your inventory and thats more expensive for finished parts over raw material. So the industry as a whole has shifted heavily to wanting parts delivered right when the assembly line needs it. But that makes any production delays, anywhere along the chain, result in delays at the aircraft itself. So theres pressure all the way down when any production delays happen at all, which leads to rushed parts, and just overall its a total mess.

So yeah, this isnt just Boeing. Theyre just the sloppiest at this point, by far. Source: I work in aerospace manufacturing as a manufacturing engineer, my entire job is making sure we have the processes and tools in place to make our parts and determine if non-conformances discovered are acceptable or unacceptable. So right on the ass-end of the chain for the most part.

He got modded and I think he just left after that. I don't think he got banned?

Nice to see USA Today can use month old articles from other sites for news.

Okay, but, like, how? This isn't your car vanishing, it is a 200 foot tall metal tower. This isn't something that is quietly removed in a night.

That is a very practical caddy for your selection of of menstrual discharge collection devices on your toilet lid.

If you would like to get even more serious about cutting down your use of toilet paper, you might also want to reserve some space in the caddy for washable fabric wipes, which are readily available for infants. Not only are the washable and reusable, they are so much more luxurious than toilet paper and make even the plushest tp feel scratchy by comparison.

If you find the idea of reusable butt wipes cringy, just keep in mind that you wash them in the laundry. You know from personal wiping experience that after using the bidet, the cloth will be even less soiled than underwear that you've worn for a day, so just wash them in the same load as your underwear.

Brought a hammer to a taser fight. Genius.

From my reading "would be put into a graveyard" means that the Colossus does not enter the graveyard at any point, so Soulless Jailer does not apply.

Willis has starred in thousands of adult videos. She is not a multimillionaire from the ad revenue, onlyfans etc. Her bills are on gofundme.

what happened?

Most people really think it boils down to "just stop taking the drug"

Like telling a depressed person to "take a walk in the woods"

Biden had equal number of deaths his first year apparently

Mike standing up

Not able to watch. Is this actually a neverending carousel of dipshits interrupting?

Delaware is the corporate capital of the country?

I see Gaetz brought George Santos as his guest. Always a contest to be the biggest asshole there with this trash party.

Do you guys just spank it in the bathroom?

Why? They got paid millions for cases they knew he was going to lose.

He paid the original $5 million, but that is it.

Even if there was no biblical nexus to Israel, even if there were zero Jews in the US, and even if there were no pro-Israel PACs or lobbyists, the US government would still support Israel. It's simply a strategic advantage for the US to have a friendly, generally Western/modern/democratic ally in the region. Even better that it's a tech hub and a sandbox for the defense industry. There's no way the US is siding with poor refugees over that. I mean, they aren't even fighting communism.

Having one of the deadliest quakes in human history happen only 15 years ago probably didn't help.

Slavery in Haiti was ended by a slave revolt leading to a political revolution.

The rest of the world has basically been punishing Haiti for setting that example ever since.

In my early days of Uber, I picked up a college woman going to a concert. She said she first called a cab company and they said that could get to her in about 45 minutes. She downloaded the Uber app and I showed up in less than five minutes. Couldnt believe how convenient it was.

Looking at the people whining in the recent reviews, it probably has a...learning curve.
