Oh I don't know: I have a certain stereotypical view of the media and it rarely fails to live down to it.

Meanwhile I'm continually annoyed by people who pronounce restaurateur as "restauranteur". There is no "N" in restaurateur!!!!

Not really: the "sh" in station is more due to the use of t and i. So 'fish' should really be "ghoti". Meanwhile AI needs a better meaning; I do like the sentiment of "inshitification" but as Thumpalumpacus rightly points out, it really needs to begin with the letter e. We need to come up with...

We're doomed.

...or parts of Italy, Canada, the United States and so on. Conspiracy theory only works if you don't go outside or have the power of independent thought. Or read a newspaper or watch the news. Or see your neighbour flooded out twice in five years in two "once in a hundred years" events. People...

Climate change is no longer a conspiracy theory; it's a decision whether you are doing anything about it or not. Meanwhile let the conspiracy idiots paint themselves into another pointless corner.

I think this is a different 'MX' system.

MX- as I recall is an AMC experimental identifier, not a 'Government' one.

Good luck with that. Try having a conversation with a conspiracy theorist.

Oh shoot. Now I'll have to ignore that. Can't harm just to take one look maybe? EDIT: Well I did. Now I think I have lost a few more IQ points.

Try to ignore them I'd suggest.

I've just been playing with AI enhancement of some of my photos and though impressed with some aspects, it's again the case that AI just cannot 'do' propellers! Before: And after... AI also removed the landing light from the right wing.

This one is a FlightSim video and a different thing entirely; these videos are posted between users and in now way claiming to be real. They're just a bit of fun but unfortunately you then get folks who feel they need to tell us they aren't "real".

This one cropped up on the usual auction site: And a bit more on it (AT-6A s/n 41-0488): 2138th Base Unit (Pilot School, Advanced, Single Engine), Craig Field, Selma, AL. A court-martialed former US Army Air Force officer escaped from the Craig Field, Alabama, guardhouse, stole an AT-6A...

I'd just like to give a non-AI "thumbs up" to you writing "Dr Frankenstein's airplane" and not the expected "Frankenphantom" (or similar). Folks who've read the book know the difference between Frankenstein and his monster. It's a pet peeve, and one which AI would surely get confused about too.
