Probably for spray paint or other damage. Or maybe for identifying when it fails
It’s unfortunately nothing new, but I do think the alternative is a new level of bad.
I assume this (and really any extra mandates for landlords) is going to drive more small/private landlords out of the business, and that won’t necessarily increase housing availability on its own, but will instead be filled by larger corporate landlords that can afford to deal with administrative work required. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve found small landlords to be where you can find the best experience (but also maybe the worst, it’s more variable), having just corporate landlords feels like you’ll always get a shittier place (minimal work done) for market rates.
It’s not just furniture, piss soaking into the floor for extended periods of time can require work to fix. I bought a house that had a renter with a large dog and I had to rip up the floor to find the spot soaked through to the subfloor where the dog always peed during the day while the owner was out, it reaked.
I’m pretty immune to fucked up shit, but I didn’t like reading that. I also like dogs…
Their manufacturing is suspect on anything new, but also the max line has several fundamental problems outside of this that have not truly been addressed.
As you mention it wasn’t autopilot, the max really just isn’t designed to fly well and needs a system to assist the pilots in keeping it flying in certain situations. I don’t believe the issue was the pitot tubes, there are many on an aircraft of this size and they have deicing abilities. The issue was a separate sensor, of which there was only one (which breaks traditional standards of having at least 3) and that sensor sent incorrect data causing the mcas to nose dive the plane.
That’s issue 1. There is also the issue with engine deicing that can catastrophically destroy the engines if left on for 5+ minutes with no ice (wtf?? Pilots are used to a system that can be left on with no harm), as well as insecure bolts, and now this door plug not being secure. Boeing is not a company to trust anymore and MD had a similar record before their board took over Boeing, so it’s not a surprise.
Look up documentaries about Boeing and their culture after the MD merger.
I’ve been avoiding the max like the plague, but my first flight on one was today after reading about the Alaskan flight. I wasn’t near where the plug is afaict, and it was a good flight, but I did have a firm grip on the seat in front of me for the first 20k feet
I've spent my whole life with the time changing, I'm adapted now and expect being able to sleep in later when it stays darker out, I don't want this to change
I read OPs comment as being a question about using a company with a reputation like Google rather than using a cloud service, but I could be wrong.
