Go ahead. Open your iPhone. Some things don't present as being safe to open without damaging the unit, so no one's going to pop it open for lulz.
Terrorists killing terrorists
These are the terrorists killing anyone standing around people the terrorists don't like. During a funeral.
I am starting to love them
Be careful whom you worship.
Based
On second thought, you'll be onto some new fad in a day.
give a user an option to easily open such in the same tab/window.
I am not sure where the 'option' (ie 'optional') part got lost in the logic here.
Did the repost bot carry an actual ad? I know - don't blame the messenger - but I'm sure I saw one the other week.
tight-packed schedules
Extra hardware.
Not something sitting there hot and ready to go, but there to take the place of the flight. Maintain a one-unit queue of planes ready to board and launch so that each and every plane sits for 2 hours and is actually prepped.
Or, when that inevitable daily breakage happens and a plane needs to be taken off the line for the day, it allows time to bring in another spare to keep that queue full (of 1) when the rotation loses that active plane.
there was nothing they could do
I'm willing to bet 'showing basic humanity' was an available option the flight crew was just unable to consider.
Pierre will tell us we're still over-funded and his rich friends should pay even less taxes than the pittance they're paying now.
With no extra airplanes, they probably don't have time.
Again, the problem comes down to no extra equipment; even when it would give them the lag time to properly clean between departures at no added hw maintenance or aircrew costs.
