    I know it is a shitty choice, but a lot of us are busy trying to prevent the (next) genocide in the US if trump wins. Which, yeah, means supporting the other party that supports Israel. At least they’ve ‘condemned’ them but the average person can’t do much to stop the military industrial complex from churning. Unlike the unhinged ml/hex users, many realize reality dictates supporting Democrats right now despite their lack of support for ending the mass murder of Palestinians. So yeah, I’m selfishly attempting protecting myself and the society that directly affects me.






  • Which, given the context that planes are necessary, you continue to ignore the OP:

    Having the public lose trust in the safety of flying is absolutely not something you want to happen.

    And then your justification for not privatizing is cronyism. So the government contracts for air travel = bad, but the ones for your project are… good??

    Your comment was really just a soap box to say air=bad, trains=good. I’m not going to argue trains are bad, but maybe make an honest argument for it.





  • Customer: Why is there so much latency over my tunnel from us-east to us-west?

    Me: checks latency seems pretty normal, what’s the issue?

    Customer: The latency is too much. Why is it not as fast as us-east-1 to us-east-2?

    Me: They are near each other. Us-West is across the entire United States

    Customer: Make faster

    Me: This is the speed of light. And over copper it’s about 2/3 that

    Customer: hmm are you sure that’s as fast as it can go?

    Me: Well, unless we change the laws of physics your not going to get any better latency
