I just woke up and read the headline as “highly photogenic bird flu”

Watch as Musk seamlessly blends in with his surroundings. Predators are unable to distinguish his profile from the white yacht with black trim.

I have nothing to contribute to this conversation. Just wanted to say that was a horribly written article.

We tested Comac parts for FAA certification. When you’ve tested parts for decades you can pretty much nail down the cause of the failure be it design, process, materials, a combination and so forth.

Also the c919 is only certified in China. It can’t fly in the US or Europe.

There is more that goes into an airplane than the people maintaining or assembling it, which can and does go afoul. There is the entire manufacturing process, how materials are sourced, processed, refined, machined/formed, heat treated, stress relieved, coated/plated, assembled, and the list goes on. That is a major factor why aircraft are so safe and if you think China’s material and process controls are as rigorous as someone like Boeing or Airbus, it isn’t. It has taken decades of actual aircraft manufacturing to get the formula right for those respective companies and they continue to evolve as time goes on and new information is learned.

I was lead to believe we would get Ant Man.

Upvoted because it truly is an unpopular opinion.

Can’t we just enjoy the joke? You’ve brought up a topic worthy of discussion, but for a shitpost thread?

Edit: Added a word

Clever and I get the joke and it made me smile. If I recall my biology from 20 years ago I think the cell makes duplicates of its chromosomes then splits apart. So you have two cells inside one membrane that separates, 2 / 1 = 2. The way I first thought about it was one cell splitting in half, so half goes to one cell, the other half with the other, 1 / .5 = 2.

In short, I think the math works out fine, but the language you use to describe it can lead to comedy gold. You could say cells reproduce by division? I don’t know, I’m not a biologist or mathematician. I’m a toilet poster.

If you think “loading the dishwasher” means getting your wife drunk, you might be a redneck.

Pulling my dad’s finger always made him fart. Definitely not normal to have your finger connected to a pressure relief valve in your ass.

Would get away to fish for two weeks. No cell phones, no technology, just living (camping) in nature. Enjoy the beauty of the lake and the challenge of catching a fish. Isn’t always easy and you probably throw back more than you keep. Sit on the boat with your buddies, drink beer, BS about anything, and every now and then reel in what feels like Mobey Dick at the end of your line but turns out to be a stick.

There are no shortcuts. Only short bridges.

Fish. They eat all their food wet so why not eat them when they’re drowning in shower water?

Finger of God.

@Somewhereunknown7351 That’s why you’re a unicorn then - which means very rare or one of a kind.

@Somewhereunknown7351 I thought you were saying you didn’t have a phone when you probably meant you don’t have an addiction.

@Somewhereunknown7351 Found the unicorn!
