You Don’t Need to Use Airplane Mode on Airplanes | Airplane mode hasn't been necessary for nearly 20 years, but the myth persists.
  • You should still set airplane mode when airborne for other reasons besides interference with the aircraft. For one, you'll save your battery. It takes a lot of "juice" for your device to search for cell towers that are likely out of reach. You may also want to avoid connecting to a tower outside where you have coverage. E.g. for a flight from Anchorage to Minneapolis, maybe you don't want to connect to Canadian cell towers and potentially receive charges in another country. Obviously this depends on your plan limits. But, yeah, it's not really about protecting the airplane, in most cases

  • What is the best way for a society to address adolescent autonomous agency, responsibility, and consent?
  • This reply is meant to generate discussion. It is not sarcasm or meant to be taken negatively at all:

    What is the purpose of any rules? Why have them? Is it possible to make a "perfect" rule or policy or public intervention whereby all affected persons are serviced fairly? Probably not. If you conclude we need rules, how do we balance their benefits with the disenfranchisement of some of the persons affected negatively?

    In your specific case, how do you make the rules minimize negative outcomes without excessively sacrificing the potential positive outcomes?

    I'm genuinely interested in your perspective from your age and place in time.

    These are good and valid questions. If you're passionate about them, you may consider studying political science and/or law in the future. One day, if you're still passionate about this topic, you may be in a position to change the rules.

  • 8 years and still meeting for Thanksgiving
    www.cbsnews.com 8 years ago a grandma accidentally texted a young man she didn't know about Thanksgiving. They've gone from strangers to family to business partners

    Wanda Dench accidentally texted Jamal Hinton in 2016, inviting him to Thanksgiving thinking he was a family member. They're not related, but he's been with her for the holiday ever since.

    How do you justify continually using take out delivery services?
  • Travel for work all over and don't have a car or other reasonable transportation in random cities. It costs less for delivery than 2 taxi/Uber rides and I dont have to risk getting lost in a weird place I don't know. Hotel room service is not good in most places

  • Most school shootings aren’t mass killings, study finds, and they’re often driven by community violence
  • So, I read the CNN article and the CNN-linked journal paper it was based on and I don't understand how the CNN aithor, Amanda Musa, was able to read the journal article and jump to her conclusions except through overwhelming prejudice and bias. Holy cow, this is irresponsible reporting. From the journal article itself, here is a relevantbsummary:

    Overall, these findings stress the critical public health message concerning the secure storage of firearms, especially in households with adolescents. Our study suggests that initiatives limiting adolescent access to firearms, such as child access prevention laws or efforts to decrease illegal gun trafficking, might effectively prevent school shooting incidents.23,24 Furthermore, hospital-based initiatives centered on screening for firearm accessibility and exposure for inpatients could be fruitful in preventing gun violence, both inside and outside schools.25
