And when the EU writes a regulation like mandating USB-C chargers, they'll make sure the companies making phones are on board and get to have realistic timelines to implement these things. If you're going to regulate an industry you kind of need their expertise, unfortunately.
How is shooting someone in the knee 'a warning shot'? Even their official policies (that are ignored in the field) are unnecessarily cruel and stupid.
Add it to the pile.
I mean, you can have worse than chemical spills with trains. You can have entire towns blowing up. But yeah, you'll probably get even worse with ATC.
Oh of course, privatisation of infrastructure always ends up worse and more expensive. Look at the US railroads.
Nah, it's always the prelude to privatisation. Someone will start up an ATC company and just take over the whole thing.
I mean, the ATC pipeline has already had issues for some decades when it comes to adding new recruits, and then DOGE came in and decided to offer buyouts and fire random employees on top of that. It's only a matter of time before you get more accidents like the one in DC.
Hey, quick question, who was providing Pakistan with weapons and was allied with them around that time?
