  Defects don’t manifest themselves immediately after they roll off the assembly line. They cause premature systemic failures after a number of years of operations. These aircraft should last 20-30 years before failure.

  No I will not give you a source. I think it was a verge article.

  Authorities said that while they had granted permission to film at the sites, they had not permitted for-profit use. A MrBeast representative denied some of the accusations.

  I would be surprised if this holds up in court. MrBeast (1) clearly was making a for-profit video because that’s his whole job and (2) promotional segments of the video were not filmed on site. There should be vetting on filming applicants so I would wonder why this was allowed at all in the first place.

  Mexico’s Secretary of Culture Claudia Curiel de Icaza said on Thursday that, although they had authorised the permit for MrBeast to film, they had never authorised the publication of false information or the use of heritage site images for trademark advertising.

  Was that explicitly stated in the filming permit (or written into law)? If so, MrBeast’s legal team fucked up.

  I’m shocked shocked that Rwanda (which basically doubled their Coltan production overnight) was caught exporting Coltan smuggled from the Rwanda occupied DRC

  Walter H. Prest described the plant as having an asparagus-like flavor once cooked.

  Yeah I would expect this to just instantly kill me.

  Is there even truth to Trump’s claim that US ships are being overcharged?

  If they are, I think it’s perfectly reasonable to overthrow the democratically elected government of Panama. Tough but fair.

  So long as that spot is 6 feet away from everyone else, they might be on to something. More research is required.
