I'm not muslim, but I thought it was really cool on my flight from Chicago to Instabul and Instanbul to Kathmandu that Turkish Air had "this direction is Mecca" indicators on their information screens.

That's the real thing. Taiwan is seeking PRC the chips. Adding America is just clickbait. This could literally be "Chinese buy iphones"

They are getting i9s. You're acting like they are getting the launch codes. This is a clickbait story.

Just google is not a source. And is the source of "did well in their performance review" from the employees themselves. Sounds just like how everyone in prison is innocent. And even if they did well, they were on the wrong team and their are equally as talented people on the other teams. Just because I hired the neighborhood kid to mow my lawn once doesn't mean I am now obligated to employ him even though I do it myself.

You clearly don't undertake that not every company is consumer facing. Next thing you know you will tell me Sysco doesn't have 1k employees

The amount of redditors with ad blockers is high. Add in the amount of money made off internet ads is incredibly low. Non-cable new channels are required to air news in their FCC licensing and is a loss leader. The entire plot of the movie Network is about that.

Why do redditors complain about the quality of journalism going down when they refuse to make it possible for newspapers to pay their journalists? Sorry, they are "paying them in exposure".

Everyone in Barneveld Wisconsin remembers the day the tornado hit, and most in Southern Wisconsin can too. Tornados hitting a place is rare, but terrible.

Reply to TIL That Matt Bissonnette, the former DEVGRU operator who, under the pseudonym Mark Owen, wrote the first book about the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden was forced to turn over the almost $7 million he made from the book because he failed to get the book approved before it was published. by GentPc
Im convinced SEALS now exist so they can write books and distract from the real tier III operators.

Reply to comment by ZLUCremisi in TIL Early drones were developed during the First World War. These radio controlled planes were primarily for target practice but by 1942 a drone with a built in TV camera was capable of delivering a torpedo to a ship 20 miles from the controller. by jamescookenotthatone
In fact it was mandated.
