@eastonfreeze They’re missing Indiana Jones and Noah Knigga

My favourite Sam Neill thing is when he just rips into that little kid at the beginning of Jurassic Park who doesn't actually think dinosaurs are that scary. He's personally offended that a 12 year old doesn't respect Raptors. Correctly btw. RIP

@katsuxbt If you’re not mentally retarded then you will never work another day in your life.

Can't believe Trump told Iran to "open the fuckin' Strait."

I miss normal times when
Biden would say things like
"trunanashofadepressure."

I submitted a requisition form for 3 49-inch curved ultrawide monitors.

The total cost was $4K.

Procurement rejected the request within 10 minutes.

They sent a note saying standard protocol limits IT staff to 2 24-inch flat panels.

I immediately drafted a 6-page manifesto on the dangers of peripheral tunnel vision.

I emailed it to the entire C-suite.

I explained that monitoring a dynamic cyber-threat landscape on flat screens causes severe visual fragmentation.

I said when a hacker attempts a brute-force entry, the malicious code moves horizontally across the network topography.

I told them that a 24-inch monitor physically clips the ends of the payload, making it invisible to the naked eye.

I invented a term called "lateral data leakage."

I claimed that without the parabolic curvature of an ultrawide display, our localized firewalls were essentially blind on the flanks.

I included a heavily doctored heat map that showed our headquarters completely engulfed in red warning zones.

The CFO walked into my office 10 minutes later looking terrified.

He asked if we were currently experiencing lateral data leakage.

I squinted at my tiny, inadequate flat screens and sighed.

I told him I couldn't be sure because my field of vision was artificially constrained by legacy hardware limitations.

I said I felt like a fighter pilot trying to fly through a thunderstorm while looking through a paper towel tube.

He immediately bypassed procurement and authorized the purchase on the corporate card.

The monitors arrived yesterday.

I mounted them in a seamless 180-degree arc on my desk.

It looks like the command deck of a spaceship.

I'm not using them to monitor network topography.

I'm using them to play Microsoft Flight Simulator in ultra-panoramic 4K resolution.

I currently have the autopilot engaged somewhere over the Swiss Alps.

I keep a spreadsheet open on the far-left edge just in case someone walks in.

When people ask why the screens show a highly detailed 3D rendering of a mountain range, I tell them it's a topographical representation of our cloud storage density.

They always nod in awe and slowly back out of the room.

Never let corporate policy stand in the way of your immersive gaming experience.

@KramerRyan @WeardenWearden @No3sports Thanks a lot, Mr. PGA Tour, I’ll be sure to do my best Tiger Woods impression next time I need to update my picture. 🫡

@Willdo4now @j32pmxr @singlepilotops You’re conflating control with margin for error.

[Hagrid ps1 @HiddenU83081]

@BonkDaCarnivore Yeah exactly, you do this expecting an ass chewing, not a suspension from flight.

[Hagrid ps1 @HiddenU83081]

@RSE_VB This is a fair perspective, but I still disagree with suspending the pilots because it impacts readiness (both on an individual level and squadron level).

[Hagrid ps1 @HiddenU83081]

@TransRightsMFer @Mug_of_Glop Well then this statement would suggest you don’t know what you’re talking about. Have a nice day.

@j32pmxr @singlepilotops You’re comparing apples to oranges - this is a large fixed wing bomber that was flying at a low speed high-angle bank. Rotary aircraft have much more control.

[Hagrid ps1 @HiddenU83081]

@TransRightsMFer @Mug_of_Glop Does a suspension from flights not entail being completely grounded? Additionally, these low altitude flybys are fairly common practice and the recent outrage is more of a protest against Hegseth/Trump rather than an earnest concern for loss of life.

[Hagrid ps1 @HiddenU83081]

@TransRightsMFer @Mug_of_Glop You misunderstand - The risk of endangering even more lives and equipment due to a loss in proficiency from a suspension is greater than a low speed low altitude flight in a relatively controlled environment.

@WeardenWearden I was undefeated almost every season playing on All-American and reached level 40-50 in 8-10 seasons on CFB 26 with normal sliders.

@CitizenUSA77 @Breaking911 Calm down grandpa

[Hagrid ps1 @HiddenU83081]

@MarkZinno Based strictly on this video, I think typical protocol here is an ass chewing for the pilots, suspending pilots is a bit of an overreach but so is the DoW lifting the suspension. It’s risky, but not overly risky. If nothing else, this is “free” recruiting and marketing.
