Ethiopian Airlines 737 Max crashes killing 157
She was giving the pilot a ZJ and grabbed onto the switch. And you're a pilot. You know what it is and you can afford it

The most likely scenario I see is that switch doing what they said and the sudden nosedive caused the gauges to go blank. The PLCs had a oh fuck moment. That happens.

Electricity does what it wants, but that seat probably was stepped down to 24 VDC. It never lost power. It would have to have closed a switch by the the seat lever and applied power to a relay causing the seat to move forward. I mean anything is possible, but I'm gonna say not probable Edit: and losing power won't do it. Power coming back may but again uhhhh. Not probable

Except that motors don't move without power. The plane may be fly by wire but the seat certainly isn't.

ERCOT Urging For Energy Conservation
I am really curious at how fast the next energy revolution is going to come. I've been involved in some sort of energy my entire adult life. I recently jumped into data centers and those things are energy hungry. They now are planning to go all in on AI stuff and the limitation is going to be energy. They are pouring a lot of money to do energy. Wouldn't be surprised if Google and Facebook ended up with an energy subsidiary.

Wildfire 2024 Thread
The Hampton and HIE express had no vacancies so we had to do Pampa. We ate at that Bennigans 4 out of the 5 nights we were there. The McDonald's was the first place I saw that had a self service kiosk. It had to have been at least 7 years ago. It was the most expensive Hampton I have ever stayed in. It was 300 bucks a night.

Would you also put part of the blame on American? They were one of the first defectors to Airbus. I guess when the SWA issue came up, Boeing was already scared of losing bigger market share.
