“Coming soon”

In my limited experience I cannot stress enough how much I prefer small regional airports.

Walk in, bags checked and through security in 5 minutes, walk a short distance through an area that’s not crowded and not full of shops, and be seated near the gate with a coffee a few minutes later. After a short wait, because you don’t need to get there an hour or more early, walk across a bit of open tarmac to a plane that’s not bursting at the seams, then take off after hardly any taxiing. So good.

I’m sure there’s an opportunity here for a multilayered DOGE joke but I’m too tired to make it

Zoomer humour?

Judging by those USB plugs that hand is enormous

Fairly sure they came with an internal hard drive

Regardless of your stance on the name change, doesn’t the executive order (and subsequent updating of the names register or whatever it’s called) make it official? In which case the maps are just being updated to reflect it.

Afaik they’re not changing it anywhere outside the US as (so far…) that’s the only place it’s been changed, so it’s not like they’re pushing that name in places where it’s not official.

It’s also not unheard of to have map details that vary depending on where you are, to align with the official stance of wherever the map is being viewed from. Ukraine, bits of the India/Pakistan border, IIRC some islands off Japan disputed by China, etc.

Not saying the name change isn’t stupid and not suggesting at all that the companies in question aren’t scum, but getting angry at the map maintainers for this change seems pointless. What did you expect them to do?

Am I missing something?

Avoid talking to them!

They might make sense, and we haven’t finished indoctrinating you!

Yeah, nana or shichi depending on context

Reminds me of Popavalium Andropoff’s gutsy effort

(Guessing this didn’t make it out of Aus much, there’s a reference in this UrbanDictionary link for the uninitiated)

Yup, had to read it twice! Just about had a heart attack
