I recently bought two charging cables for my iPod classic. It’s probably going to outlive me

For sure, when it comes to advanced users. But the quality for normies like me goes as high as something like AirPods

The last wide body I’ve flown in was a DC-10 almost 30 years ago. Kinda sad really.

There is more to a port than wireless charging...

To be honest I thought wireless only would bug me with my Apple Watch and it doesn’t at all. 95% of my charging is done overnight anyway so what do I care if it’s a bit slower?

The part I would dislike is data transfer being hell and being forced to use wireless headphones. Charging wouldn’t be a big deal though.

I flew on a condor airlines 767 to Germany. That aircraft was so old that it had separate RGB filters on 3 different projectors to make a single image on the bulkheads of the aircraft. Somehow it managed to have headphone jacks in each seat but that was your only luxury.

Lightning sucks ass. This is why I haven’t update my iPhone since 2018. Apple would be wise to comply.

Here we go again on a 747 Looking at the clouds from the other side of Heaven Smoking and drinking, never gonna stop Reading magazines stop me looking at the clock

When the fuck did a Throat Tumor Surgical Robot become a "gadget"?

When the fuck did a Boeing 747 become a "gadget"?

Snake Jazz

But wasn't there a version proposed that was going to use propellers?

Edit: Apparently the never built 747-500 was indeed meant to be propllers

We're in a weird place between phones and mixed reality headsets. Phone companies be like.

Already have one friend getting one of these day one irrespective of the price.

Been on an A380 as well. Looks the same from the inside but still cool somehow flying with one.

This should’ve been the way. Maybe USB-D?

My grandfather did avionics maintenance at Boeing for like 60 years, contracted out to airlines all over the place. Kuwait, Saudi, Beijing... the man had some wild stories.

Not a chance.

Epic typo on my part but no by that time the husband had an ex to the front

As a music producer, I have a pair of leisure headphones that connect via BT. They’re convenient for gaming, chatting on Discord, playing videos on your phone… but mixing? Nah. That’s wired all the way. None of the interference, latency, or frequency loss. They are also heavier and have 10 times the impedance, and sound crisp as summer rain.

imo both are better for their intended purpose than their counterpart. BT is synonymous with confort, not quality.

3 year old article. LG don't even make phones anymore.

It'll be a 5 year old article before this law comes into force and the problem is already gone with new phones today.

all commercial flights go under the single engine rule no?

I mostly built ULDs, processed customs docs and accepted DGR back in those days. :D

I mean I've owned the pixel 2, 3, 5, and now the 7. I also owned the nexus 1 and 5 before that.

I've owned the Samsung Galaxy S4 active and s7 active as well as the original Samsung Galaxy (1).

I agree, I much prefer a Google phone mostly because they don't have any of the bloatware on there.

The massive jumbos were built to service the largest airports, when most long haul service operated on a "Hub and spoke" model. This is when the big international airports serve as a "hub" for the vast majority of incoming flights, where people would then connect on to another flight which would fly a shorter distance to the final destination. However airlines, for a number of reasons, have shifted more towards using smaller, more efficient aircraft that serve more direct routes. Larger aircraft also require bigger runways, which means they are not as flexible as smaller craft.
