  • You got me completely wrong

    I just find it a very odd take to talk about the hurt feelings of all the other Indian pilots, just because maybe one did a mistake

    This just smells too nationalized, because it just isn’t obvious, that it was a pilot mistake, and even then, why should all other Indian pilots do the same mistake?

    Mistakes are human and happen. Shouldn’t, but it just is reality.

    Reducing the issue to the image of Indian flights and pilots, was just too fast for me.
    I care much more about what actually happened and how we can prevent it in the future.
    I don’t really care if the pilot was Indian, Russian, Chinese, European or American.
    The important part is to find out how to prevent it.

    If pilots get overworked, then this is also an issue that needs to be addressed.

    But the nationalism in this is just bullshit.
    (And I’m not from India)










  • Sorry for maybe sounding ignorant, but I just never got the reason to describe myself as “we” as that would mean plural for me - so either in a majestic way or lunatic way ;⁠-⁠)

    What’s the difference to just say everything with “I’m”
    As far as I understand “I” isn’t gender specific, so wouldn’t matter what you identify with, but at least it’s singular and matching for the single person I’m speaking with.

    What do I miss here?
    Thanks upfront for the clarification!



  • My practical (edit: somehow auto correct made “PayPal” out of it) roadmap to more freedom of the individual usually goes like:
    Direct democracy
    Remove all political parties, state has the job to do what the basic democratic system - so the people - work out, with directly voted in representatives for specific roles
    Rules of system can be directly changed through itself

    This could finally lead to some anarchism on a national level.

    But we’re losing on the educational front since decades and without intelligent people, the choices will just be like the results of the current elections…







  • Native German speaking here:
    I find English much easier than Spanish.
    In Spanish the information is just transferred into the verb, so it’s just encoded another way.

    I don’t see much difference here, but it’s harder for me to learn, because my language is structured differently

    Edit: completely forgot about the meme while reading the post text…
    Well, yeah, that was what we actually hoped for. But probably the correct bird would be the drunken on riped fruit ones
