I used to use that kind of thing, and it was nice until I needed to carry a lever tumbler lock key and some other keys that were abnormally shaped.

According to my friend who used to work with that stuff, the bigger “problem” is mostly with regulations and balancing the risks; the damage potential of an aircraft accident (loss of life, brand reputation, recalls, etc) is exponentially more expensive than however much you’d save in production costs. Closed-loop recycling is usually the focus instead. But it would of course be cool.

At least that’s kinda Airbuses viewpoint on it. Boeing on the other hand might be fine with delivering dodgy stuff and bribing away any possible fines ;)

There are different grades btw, recycled aluminum isn’t used for most aviation or military stuff in general due to regulations on purity and such. But I guess that’s a positive for the world regardless.

“If you want to replace Internet Explorer with Netscape Navigator, why not just use Solaris or OS/2 or something? It’s THEIR OS you’re using” didn’t go over too well with the courts.

What 153./8? You mean the allocated 153.66.0.0/15? But yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised, they probably don’t care about abuse reports and it’s more difficult to pinpoint a specific customer due to CGNAT.

At least they provide a nice list of ranges you could block.

Even if you remove those places from the “Express List”? But yeah, that sounds typical, they like getting the transaction fees and such. And should you get them to do a chargeback, they take the money back from the merchant as well. It’s a win-win to screw you over.

Can you imagine if they put a camera inside the vehicle?

There are already cameras inside most new cars, but the purpose is to see if you’re nodding off when driving and such. It’s a good thing to keep unsafe drivers off the road. The bad thing is the lack of privacy regulation.

Are you legally allowed to go around with an ice pick? Be smarter to avoid getting yourself into trouble.
