Not to brag, but my mom let me have her old palm pilot from work.

Guess I was pretty cool when I peaked 20 years ago.

Yeah it actually looked worse in person than I expected.

It looks like how a caveman would draw a car after only seeing them on a Playstation 1.

Good. I'm all for the right to protest, and also all for the slander suit if your protesting is based on bullshit claims.

Oh god flashbacks to the Overcooked ice level while drinking.

So many chefs died that day.

And they'll also take an insane amount of local water supplies to fight nature and make a profit.

I get that they're successful, and it'd be fantastic if this became the trend. But Battlefield and Call of Duty sell consistently with much less development effort and a lot lower risk of flopping.

It looks like Call of Duty is typically 3 year development cycles, and one took only 1.5 years. Baldur's Gate took 6 years.

Great question, I'm curious too. I definitely don't want to give Boeing to benefit of the doubt. Just wanted to give perspective that there aren't a lot of aircraft manufacturer options.

Honestly I'm more disappointed that this isn't the first time on Lemmy that I've seen someone delete a post and then try to make a big scene about how they didn't like the responses they got and were giving up on a community.

Lemmy has so little content that your complaint post gets to be top of a community for a while, so that's nice.

You're not the main character, people are entitled to opinions, and you don't have to care or take them personally. It's the internet, there will always be someone who complains even if it's entirely unwarranted.

Boeing and Airbus are the only large passenger aircraft manufacturers that I'm aware of.

Don't get me wrong, Boeing's doing awful lately. But even on a good day the odds are high it's Boeing, and even higher when news outlets know people want to hear about every fail from Boeing suddenly.

This is one of my worries with a growing wealth disparity in the world.

The average person is starting to get priced out of any luxury entertainment because there are wealthy people with unreasonable amounts of money to throw at whatever they feel like.

There will always be rich people who can pay whatever price a company asks for.

You can't compete with a twice baked bitch.
