  • That’s fair. If you have even the slightest appreciation for aviation, I really do recommend Mentour Pilot. His video recently about the LionAir 737-MAX8 crash was phenomenal, and a perfect example. Extremely clickbait-y title and thumbnail, but a rock-solid hour-long dive into the final report, including details of the preceding flights.

  • One of the greatest channels on YouTube, in terms of quality content, is Mentour Pilot (and his other channel, Mentour Now). He releases videos weekly, I think. They’re remarkably high production value, well-researched, well-written, informative, and fascinating.

    His thumbnails and many of his titles are awful. Clickbait, capitalization, arrows pointing at stuff, etc.

    There are of course people who do the clickbait stuff and make terrible content.

    There are people who don’t do the clickbait stuff, some of whom make good content and some who make terrible content.

    Whether you try to get as much value from the platform as you can doesn’t indicate the quality of your work. Some people play the game, some don’t.

  • Represents‽ No they are the body and blood of santa

    Bah. You Catholics and your Transubstantiation, and the Evangelicals and their Memorialism, are both wrong.

    The body and blood of Santa are present in, with, and under the cookies and milk.

  • Batteries work great in a city, anywhere else they don't. This is why hydrogen ICE makes sense.

    I think most are going with hydrogen fuel cell rather than ICE. It’s more efficient, if also more boring.

    Edit: why on earth is this being downvoted? Am I wrong? Are manufacturers working on hydrogen combustion now instead of fuel cell? Because a few years ago it was all about fuel cells in that space. So please, let me know if I’m wrong. For the record, I think BEV makes far more sense for the average driver. But HFCV makes sense for something that can build out dedicated refueling infrastructure and benefit more from rapid refueling, like trucking.

  • Why would you use iOS if you care about privacy?

    Because it’s far better for privacy than any Google-Play-Services-ridden version of Android, and sometimes in life you don’t want to have to deal with custom ROMs anymore.

    But also that’s an exceptionally dumb question, because the implication is that privacy can’t matter to people who don’t go to the same precise lengths someone else does.
