TrismegistusMx , in Taco John's has given up its 'Taco Tuesday' trademark after a battle with Taco Bell

Did they forget about Taco Thursday?

They should have just trademarked the rest of the days of the week for tacos

Taco John’s should be able to pick one of the bells slogans now… Think outside the bun… run for the border… Live Mas…

It’s only fair.

They don’t like to turn on the engines for AC because it wastes fuel.

I’m surprised they don’t have a way to pump in A/C. Maybe they were too far from the gate.

Compression requires a shit load of energy and additional weight. When a plane is flying it can use a ram air for compression.

I’m saying have an A/C cart with an air hose that hooks up to the plane. I’ve seen them used in certain situations.

Puzzle_Sluts_4Ever ,

They very much were

I fully understand the logic in play here. Been on enough flights out of ORD during the winter where pilots just don’t give a fuck. If you go back to the gate, you will be grounded and nobody is leaving. If you stay on the tarmac “waiting” for as long as possible, there are good odds you get to take off. Pilots want to get out of the airport just as much as passengers do.

There need to be stronger safety regulations to prevent this from happening. But it is very easy to imagine a situation where the pilots didn’t realize how bad it was getting in the cabin and figured “We’ll be given the green light to taxi to a runway any second now”

TheHorseWhistler ,

Engines aren’t used for AC on the ground. The APU is, or an external AC unit is attached to the plane.

alnilam ,

“The plane ultimately had to head back to the gate”.

Sounds like they weren’t at the gate anymore, and I doubt they have external AC on the taxiway

I respect them taking this approach

MicroWave OP , in Woman suing Texas over abortion ban vomits on the stand in emotional reaction during dramatic hearing
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

Heartbreaking

One of the plaintiffs in the suit, Samantha Casiano, vomited on the stand while discussing her baby’s fatal birth defect, which she said also put her life at risk.

Casiano said she learned at 20 weeks’ gestation that her baby had anencephaly, a serious condition that meant the infant was missing parts of her brain and skull. Casiano said her obstetrician told her the baby would not survive after birth and gave her information about funeral homes.

Casiano read aloud a doctor’s note that diagnosed her pregnancy as high risk, then began to sob and ultimately threw up, prompting the judge to call a recess.

3 people downvoted facts? Fuck them.

Someone is getting sued.

21Cabbage , in Taco John's has given up its 'Taco Tuesday' trademark after a battle with Taco Bell

One of my favorite bars had a framed letter on the wall from Taco John’s explaining why they have to call their weekly taco special something else.

TwoMindsQ , in Taco John's has given up its 'Taco Tuesday' trademark after a battle with Taco Bell

I didn’t know they had it trademarked, I just knew John’s was better than Taco Bell lol.

Astroturfed ,

That’s a super low bar. I haven’t tried my dogs turds, but I’d still give dog turd like 20% chance of being better than most taco bell items.

TwoMindsQ ,

Taco Bell should raise their bar then.

fubo , (edited ) in Justice Dept. assessing Texas razor wire at border that Mexico blasts as ‘inhumane’

Controlling the national border is not within the jurisdiction of any individual state, including border states such as California or Texas.

It’s likely that by deploying deadly man-traps into the border, that individual Texas state officials have personally committed murder under federal law. Generally, laying unattended, concealed deadly traps is not permissible under American common law — even if they are intended to ensnare a person who is committing a crime. Submerged razorwire intended to snag and drown a person would seem to count as a concealed, deadly trap.

Since their state jurisdiction does not extend to enforcing federal immigration law, qualified immunity would not apply; these officials may be prosecuted as individuals under federal criminal law.

InverseParallax , in MI6 door ‘always open’ to Russian defectors, says UK spy chief Richard Moore

Yeah, umm, and they should really defect now, the purges are coming and they won’t be pretty.

Either that or expect to be sent to the bakhmut front.

Here’s a thought:

Let’s send US flag ships to collect the grain.

Easy to bomb wheat destined for the poor in Africa who need it when it’s under a civilian flag, huh?

Pathetic bully state needs to be stomped in the balls.

Trump is literally a 77 year old child and conservatives want this guy to be president. Holy hell, no one can be a Trump supporter and criticize any other president.
