Yeah, maybe. As for the cap, she visited again when the sun was at a different angle and her cap feathers aren’t black. They’re reddish brown. Between the lighting and the grime from her wound it just looked black.

Yeah that black cap is interesting. Not sure what’s going on with that.

Yikes! I had no idea that that was a thing.

My dad keeps cockatiels and monk parrots. He has just been loading his feeder with the same food that he feeds them. Not sure what the colored stuff is.

Juveniles and adult females are brownish. Adult males are bright red.

I hope they get a good payout. Google’s software gave them dangerous directions even though authorities had warned Google about what was repeatedly happening. Waze warns drivers about dangerous conditions including road sections where accidents are statically more likely. Google has the capability and obligation to advise motorists on the objective, relative crime risk of every route suggestion.

No. Organized labor exists in spite of the government. For example, in the US, sympathy strikes are illegal. Many jurisdictions have so called right-to-work laws which weaken unions. A union is its members, not the laws to which it’s subjugated.

For most of the history of capitalism, and in many cases still to this day, organized labor and various labor actions have been illegal, but it still happens.

As members of the same class, workers interests should be more or less aligned and disagreements should be mostly minor. Differences can be settled by compromise or people can withdraw from the organization if not.

Organized labor is the biggest stick. If workers organize themselves based on an anarchist basis, they can potentially wield this stick very gracefully to ward off or even preclude the entities that would dominate and exploit them.

The end goal is basically the same as Marxism: a stateless, classless society. It’s a fair question as to whether the anarchist route that forgoes an interim worker state is viable.

2024 looking rough already.

Oh no

I don’t know. They seem more powerful.

Based on my friend’s description, it’s a perpetual work in progress. It seems like the appeal to him is the idea what it might eventually become, and the anticipation of updates, as opposed to what it currently is. Not for me.

Yeah, but if I start shouting that in a restaurant I’m going to get everyone’s attention instead of the old lady responsible for my meal.

Nginx wench

I hope so, but an evil pilot still only has to subdue that one person.

Yup. If you think about it, that flight was the fifth to be brought down by the 9/11 hijackers. The FAA just gave them a freebie.

The problem with locking cockpits is that is that it’s perfect for an evil or very sick pilot.

It seemed like Honda was going in the right direction with the eCity, but so much for that, I guess.
