The promise of AI is here! Spot any shape that looks like a mirror and place it into the mirror category.

I think the tab title on the google translate one needs censored out too, not just the address bar.

When do we start posting those absurd "mark all images with $THING in them" CAPTCHAs to the Friday images list? Or will that lead to an infinite loop?
Admin
Yeah. I wonder what is behind that base64 also. Somebody should OCR it.

I once saw this sequence in the Fedex tracker for an overnight package:
Memphis, TN TVC (Traverse City, MI airport) Memphis TN
The explanation: due to a snowstorm, the Fedex truck did not meet the airplane at TVC. They did not have a place to store the package, so they left it on the airplane.
And it's now possible to land an airplane in a snowstorm that makes driving nearly impossible... I don't think the FAA allows airliners carrying to land solely on the instrument landing system when the pilot can't see the ground, but a well-equipped cargo jet can.

The real WTF with the earbuds is that Amazon allows listings to be hijacked by anybody with a matching part number. I presume that the actual automotive part that was there before had pretty good customer reviews.

Not a thing to be proud of.

My MSI actually came with a plushie dragon mascot keychain. I wouldn't be opposed to an action figure.

ILS CAT III and LPV approaches are allowed for both passenger and cargo operations.
Cherry Capital (KTVC) does not have an ILS CATIII approach so no FedEx did see the ground well before they landed. The lowest approach is RNAV 10 which requires a 285 foot ceiling

Favoirte?

"And it's now possible to land an airplane in a snowstorm that makes driving nearly impossible... I don't think the FAA allows airliners carrying to land solely on the instrument landing system when the pilot can't see the ground, but a well-equipped cargo jet can."
It all has to do with the ILS category. If the airport (runway), airplane, company AND crew are all certified for CAT-IIIc landings, then a landing with no visibilityis allowed (fully automated). Cargo or passenger doesn't matter. This is however a pretty rare occurrence. Theoretically it is possible that an aircraft is allowed to land in zero visibility, but not allowed to taxi on the airport.

Wtf
Are those wireless earphones just ridiculously expensive or is the cheaper version a low quality ripoff? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33054279793.html

Both, probably.
