Yeah of course industries will collapse. 100 car factories will close, 5 superyacht factories will open, tying up the same amount of productivity. Owned by the same guy.

There will be tons of spacecraft launchpads, private jet hangars, etc.

And wars of course.

The rich will keep trading with each other. Look at housing for an example.

The rich. Companies will stop targeting products to wider and wider swathes of people, just like nobody caters to the homeless now.

Trump got shot at a rally, very minor injuries, would be assassin dead

Schutzstaffel, as in protective service would probably be a better description of what they actually do I guess

Secret service better fits sg like the CIA

I had to do a double take on that abbreviation

The extreme right gained some seats, but they are very far from winning an election. They actually underperformed expectations and are actively losing ground eg. in France or the NL. Even Orbán’s regime seems to have found a challenger.

The fight is not over yet, but this election has been very far from a far right win.

Commercial flights don’t typically use uncontrolled airports. That said, it could also be on the pilots, hence the investigation.

If the journos did their jobs, they could have probably checked out LiveATC for the comms.

Mostly a shrug. Live and let live.

Other billionaires making money might have started to be afraid to do so.

But that someone will have their own priorities that will most likely not always coindice with yours.

Lawfare it to hell and back?

Well, yes?

I guess they have as much to do with it as “industry leaders”.

They typically don’t.

Oh fuck me

The thing is, a lot of it might not. See Russia for an example.

Europol are awful, they are pushing chat control as well. ACAB and all that.

That said, is it better anywhere else?

TM and Livenation own the venues as well IIRC.

Also owned by Google, so this change might make it over

So there is the market capitalist solution of breaking them up and letting the pieces compete with each other, or the socialist solution of nationalizing them.

If this goes on, how do you know any of those airframes aren’t as much of a sham as the 787?

This is how you end up with an army like Russia.
