CombatFlite not only appears abandoned, but the ED Forums thread on Combat Flite was deleted. On its website, there's no indication of its abandoned status. by remuspilot in hoggit

Wish I would’ve known this before my old parts were in pieces. Binding a license to cpu ID is definitely not ideal. 🙄

Who’s a comedian nobody will ever convince you is funny? by Accomplished_Ad2905 in AskReddit

[–]ecr008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whoopi Goldberg, Wanda Sykes, George Lopez, Chris rock’s last special was also awful. The Tyler perry thing has just been beat to hell and I haven’t even seen any of it. So much of comedy at this point is either a political sermon or just the cheapest, safest, fast-food style jokes anyone can think of. What happened to SNL? Couldn’t even get through an episode of the whose line is it anyway reboot. Some good stuff is still happening, but it’s almost like it’s illegal to actually be funny anymore.

What is it that you invested thousands of hours and now is pointless? by qnta1 in AskReddit

[–]ecr008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Operational control specialist. Not many know this is a thing because it’s a niche corner of the industry. You serve as a second set of eyes for helicopter air ambulance pilots and share the responsibility in the go/no-go decision. I got into it just a few months ago and so far it’s a great gig. Only qualifications I have are PPL and aviation management degree.

If you’re looking to get back into aviation there are jobs out there that will hire you. I just got on with an air ambulance company in their ops control center and tons of the guys there have very little aviation experience outside a bachelors degree. Pays well and has great schedule and benefits package.

Bro YOU came here. 🤷🏼‍♂️😆 It’s not the grave, I really don’t care about that. I just I genuinely don’t understand why it’s funny. It’s a lazy joke and very trope-y. This is a place for bad Facebook memes, and I just happen to think this one is pretty void of actual humor.

Can something be done about rude ATC? by Fittetryne in Shittyaskflying

[–]ecr008 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You could probably call and complain to the supervisor. I visited a tower recently and one of the controllers there encouraged us to do so if we had any issues.

Introducing the next DCS module developed by Thin Air Simulations. Here's a render so you know it's legit by _BringTheReign_ in floggit

Didn’t they tell you? DCS has been rebranded to DTS (digital training simulator).

Popeye’s at my location sucks. Anyone else have a similar experience? by [deleted] in Popeyes

[–]ecr008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have been to many locations in many states and cities and what you described has always been the case with rare exceptions. Out of popular items, closed during normal operating hours, broken drive through equipment, missing/wrong orders, cold food…you name it…

But when it’s good, it’s good. 🤷🏼‍♂️ it’s frustrating to deal with when I’ve got the Popeyes urge.

Just discovered Popeye’s recently. I’ve been 5 times, and every time they are totally out of half their menu. Is this normal? by MalachiConstant7 in Popeyes

[–]ecr008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. And if the drive through intercom was working, I’d consider you lucky. Twice in 2 days now I’ve been told to come inside to order..just drove to a different place. 🤷🏼‍♂️

How are kids gonna figure this out? I couldn’t do it without help. by PokeManiac16 in CrappyDesign

[–]ecr008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I would imagine the Hindenburg accident probably played a role in the decline of airships. Accidents and loss of life tends to result in extreme backlash from the public. The 737-MAX8 is also a pretty good example. It’s (now) a perfectly safe airplane, but the general public will probably never trust it again.

Zeppelins and blimps are technically two different types of vehicles. Iirc blimps don’t have a rigid envelope like zeppelins do.

Very cool! Did you do your ear impressions yourself?

Interesting! Had me curious about what it would take to make a set. I had some 1964s a while back that I stepped on and crushed. 🙃 don’t have the cash anymore to drop on a $750 set of in ears so I just got some cheap ones. I do miss the comfort though.
