something something, sounds like a bluesky post.
o_1··on US airlines are pushing to remove protections for passengers and add more fees
The airlines and the FAA have been reducing seat size and weight for "safety reasons". 21" width minimum required in 1995 only 18" width in 2025. These seat requirements directly corrolate to fuel cost savings, and passenger density. Simple statistical manipulation with the increase in passengers shrinks the fatality and accident rate because the sample is larger. The airlines are to the FAA as what wall street is to the SEC.
o_1··on Using NASA’s SMAP satellite to detect L-band interference
Very awesome. Never knew about L-band.
o_1··on Major Flaws in 2025 Meta-Analysis on Fluoride and Children IQ Scores
i think the dissent in this thread is unqualified. Society is completely over "net-benefit" solutions. Stop perscribing 20th century one size fits all solutions. How about free flouride tablets instead of dosing everyone. Then saying "we need public policy to govern insurance rates". If this arugment saw its maxima, it would be manditory euthansia after 65. Certainly would really drop insurance rates. Btw genetics are a massive factor in oral hygine requirements, probably something your not considering. Should everyone wear the same brand/make of shoes?

seems broken in my mobile browser
o_1··on Quacker News
Wow congrats this is useless.
o_1··on Children need risk, fear, and excitement in play
SUVs are not the problem. it's literally what the article said, mininums are too low. Most SUVs are family's traveling. You should look up the statistics for uninsured motorists in Florida, it's staggering. People simply will not follow the law, it's an enforcement problem. The sheer miles of roadways to police is extremely vast, it's very difficult to remove dangerous uninsured drivers. Hence why most people by big SUVs to protect themselves from collisions.
o_1··on Norwegian ban on Meta behavioral advertising extended to entire EU
I the term bot is interesting, I think it cbelievean be expanded to any automata predictably responding in a certain fashion. Twitter "reply" accounts even if operated by humans but acting like bots should be considered bots. Posts that don't move the discussion along but just reaffirm in one direction or the other are just pure noise and useless. Discourse is broken or the human brain is, unsure which it is.
o_1··on Peter Thiel was an FBI informant
LOL look at the name of it. It's a wizard stone from Lord of the Rings. Plays wizard and king in castle. This has to be to mock us.
o_1··on Peter Thiel was an FBI informant
Whom it attracts doesn't define it. I think we could all postulate some interesting personalities for some other ideologies.
o_1··on Peter Thiel was an FBI informant
Government always serves the ruling class. The point of libertarianism is to eliminate the abuse of government so the capabilities of the individual can progress freely. Libertarian ideology assumes government to have a worse case scenario impact. Blissful ignorance of an over-watch is not worse case.

o_1··on Automatic emergency braking should become mandatory, feds say
It should be optional period. You want to save lives how about disable stolen cars, so joy ride Kias dont kill pregnant mothers. Imagine emergency braking a F-350 with a gooseneck and two tractors on it. Does not end well.
o_1··on Half of Americans now believe that news organizations deliberately mislead them
cough davos
o_1··on Cargo airships could be big
"vacuums aren't combustible" oh I love it idk what you did here, but the assumption of hydrogen still being used is awesome. reminds me of a great Archer episode.
o_1··on Show HN: Socketify.py: Http/Https and WebSockets servers for PyPy3 and Python3
Claiming python has blazing speed while literally being CPython is insanity. This is like saying "Im a natural body builder who only uses Test, HGH, and Dianabol". Great drop the natural part, similarily just advertise speed as CPython.

o_1··on Europe makes shipping vessels pay for carbon emissions
Good, yes tax things we need more? Where is this money going? Are we funding research for hydrogen powered freight? 1st world taxation almost always affects the bottom rung of the planet while building endless coffers of money for the wealthy.
