    Cable cars are apparently a common method of travel in rural areas of Pakistan. They got a few out by helicopter, the rest by a rigged up harness system. When I saw the car itself, it certainly would have been scary. Just a flimsy open metal cage.

    Wow! Always amazes me to see talent like that (in anything) that is so so far above what I would be able to do.

    Many years ago, in Hawaii, at the airport getting on a flight to one of the other islands, on a small, probably 19 passengers, plane. No Jetway, just walk across the tarmac to the plane. Most of the passengers were Japanese. The second the rope dropped the Japanese tourists bolted for the plane. Men, women, children, old and young - running full speed. I had no idea what was happening.

    @Mik said in OK, so we're in Las Vegas.: Hilary was not a huge deal here. [image: 1692723562119-screenshot-2023-08-22-at-11.57.39-am.png]

    Don't take my word for it. Look at what a forced reset trigger is and how it works.

    Apple takes your money directly out of your pocket. Microsoft helps third parties take it. At least you get an option with MS.

    I would guess that it is not more than a day or so. Defensless babies on land need to learn quick.

    I am surprised it took until now for this warning to be issued.

    It will be interesting. I believe that some of the candidates will start to "move away" from President Trump. "President Trump is a good guy and was a good president. However, vote for me instead!" That type of attitude seems to have no chance of winning. If you truly believe that, then you should not be in the candidacy.

    There are lots of storefront signs around here saying no guns are allowed on premises. Especially you see those signs at liquor stores. Unclear what is the point of keeping rule-followers from having guns in the store.

    There used to be a limit on how far you could fly from Reagan National, Dallas was beyond the limit. So American had a flight that stopped at Dulles for just a few minutes, a few passengers got off, none got on. I would be booked to get off at Dulles, but if there was a happy hour downtown, I would stay on for the trip to DCA. The flight from IAD to DCA was only a few minutes, the price was the same. It was legal either way, American didn't care.
