  • Airbus said a recent incident had revealed that solar flares may corrupt data critical to the functioning of flight controls.

    This is incredibly interesting, I hope the final report includes specific details of the data corruption and what they did to fix it. Actually it’s more interesting because the fix is reverting to a previous software version so they somehow introduced a vulnerability to single event upsets I’m guessing. I’d love to know how often these sort of events happen (not just when they cause issues but bit-flips in general). I know that flying high they are exposed to higher levels of radiation than on the ground.



  • It is much easier to agree to disagree when your uncle isn’t voting to strip you of your civil rights

    Sighs this apathy for other people’s suffering is so tiring. “It doesn’t affect me negatively so it’s not worth shunning the imperialism-enabler” is not the moral victory this person seems to imply.

    I’m so tired of this, how do we change it? Does anybody have advise that has worked on helping people find a sense of solidarity?






  • The “European democracies” already undermined themselves by allowing capital to exert as much control as they want, and just allowing themselves to be vassalized by the USA. They join the USA in funding and supporting fascists and engage in regime change all over the world in order to continue to extract super profits from the global south so that they can stay rich and placate their own citizens by sharing some of that stolen wealth.

    And this whole war was a result of a plan to exploit Ukraine’s human and material resources in a similar way, with the ultimate goal of doing the same to Russia. This is why the west has been supporting Banderite neo nazis in Ukraine for many decades.

    The fascists lost WWII but won the Cold war. The DDR had far better gender equality, gay rights, and trans rights than the BRD.

    Parties like BSW accept and attempt to work within the divisions among the working class along ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and disability status that were created by the ruling class in order to prevent the development of class consciousness. But into doing so they reinforce these divisions and allow themselves and class consciousness to be weakened. All while promoting bigotry. That is why I oppose them. Not because of their positions on Russia.
