When Chresten Wilson was 12 years old, she and her mom drove past United Airlines' Flight Training Center in Denver. She looked at the building and told her mom: "I'll be there someday."This year, she became the No. 1 most senior pilot across the entire airline, the highest position on United's pilot seniority list. She is the first woman in the airline's history to hold that honor. Wilson currently flies as a Boeing 787 Dreamliner captain, one of the most prestigious positions in the fleet.At an airline with over 13,000 pilots, reaching the top of the seniority list takes decades of dedication, skill, and persistence. In the airline world, seniority is everything. It determines what aircraft you fly, what routes you get, what schedule you hold, and when you take vacation. Reaching No. 1 means you have been with the airline longer than every other active pilot on the roster.United shared the moment on social media for International Women's Day, showing Captain Wilson at the gate in her uniform, clearly emotional. The post has been liked by Boeing and has received more than 42,000 likes.From a 12-year-old girl with a dream to the most senior pilot at one of the world's largest airlines. That is what determination looks like.

I wish my parents where that supportive when I was a kid. I loved trains as a kid and they demanded I grow out of it as soon as possible.
Why are females harassed on public transportation? No incel answers please

>>2067624Ever stop and think about how weird it is that the only time anyone cares about violent crime is when someone fuckable gets killed? If he had just killed some 50 year old brown manlet who spent his whole life working as a cashier it wouldn't have even made the news but since it was a fuckable white girl everyone is like "I could have fucked her, and now I can't, I want revenge now" and all of a sudden there ought to be a law. If anyone ever tells you we live in a patriarchy ask them why there are no draconian criminal codes named after male crime victims.

How is this guy alive? First one or two videos I watched, I thought he was just going for (You)s but they just get worse and worse. The only way this makes sense is if he has terminal cancer and he wants to die riding a bike and not in a hospital bed.

>>2066962If at all, I'm pushing the ladder in front of me up. I don't live in Japan either.I don't want Japan to go to shit, but foreigners in general will do that to your country.I, myself, and probably you as well wouldn't be the worst, but still: Keep the foreigners out. That's for the best of everyone involved.

Does anyone know how fast Shinkansen pass through Utsunomiya station?ORM says line speed changes from 320 to 275 km/h there but I remember reading somewhere the speed will be raised to 320 on the Omiya - Utsunomiya section starting this weekend.

So close and yet so far from being a decent high-speed rail line.What can be done to make the Acela and the Northeast Corridor better?
>>2067557have things worth actually going to along it and finally admit that high speed rail is a total meme because wfh is better than enabling long-distance commuting
>>2067565>have things worth actually going to along itI get that Philly and Baltimore are a bit rough but NYC and DC alone should carry this route.>long-distance commutingThis is a total meme, HSR is a replacement or complement for short-haul flights, and its primary users are business travelers and where the fares are not outrageous leisure travelers, not daily commuters.
>>2067568who tf is working normally in NYC or DC who needs to visit the other one in person instead of doing that shit over Microsoft Teams
>>2067557quad-track the entire route and increase top speeds in the slowest areas
If all goes well with Brightline West we should see a proper HSR connecting cities in California plus Las Vegas within the next 2-3 years
SS United States to be sunk, creating the world's largest artificial reef. RIP to one of the greats.
I saw a facebook post from the conservancy or whatever the former owners are called now, ebegging for more money, for the museum this time, because apparently the museum isn't GUARANTEED to be happening, just that they received some land or a small amount of funding for it or something as part of the sale/deal.So realistically that funnel is going to rot on a plot of land for decades while they keep milking it all over again.
Coins! A nearby college is machining souvenir coins out of aluminum scrap removed from the ship. Doesn't say if or when they'll be sold though.https://www.getthecoast.com/okaloosa-nwfsc-collaborate-to-produce-commemorative-ss-united-states-coins-from-ships-salvaged-aluminum/
>>2065529Damn, I would totally buy one of those
>>2064879They've also hired or convinced Erin Brockovich to complain about chromate primer paint left on the ship as an environmental reason not to sink it.
Do we have a date when they're going to sink her yet?
whats the use case of those fat tire e bikes arent you just putting more stress on everything?gas mopeds typlically only have 2.5/2/75 tires
>>2067455it is 100% this these days but the original >USE CASE was for sand, snow, and other slippery but powder-like surfaces.But yeah the modern fatbike enjoyer is a mix of DUI riders who realize that they are spending less on gas and wannabe gangsters who are too bad at The Game to even afford a clapped out Tercel. Sometimes both -- the retarded low-level drug dealer who is smart enough to realize his car has been NOOOOOTICED by local police, but is too stupid to realize that doing his rounds on a "bicycle" with 20" wide tires 6" thicc doesn't make him look virile, it makes him look like a low level drug dealer who is too scared to drive his own car to the evening sales meeting.

>>2067450It has always bugged me that they have 4 inch tyres. I ain't a great fan of moped style ebikes due to silly design choices, such as this one. The other is the full suspension.
>>2067450maybe it's to get away with cheap/non-existent suspension.
>>2067450its a way to use tooling from cheap "baja" gas minibike ruff n toof scooters but sell more than five a yeartheyre designed to be as cheap as possible (physically small, so a minimum of material/tooling) and as simple as possible (thus cheap to build but also appealing to the hicks buying them) the target market for the original gas versions are hicks who need a toy bike to ride around the property that needs minimal maintenance, is cheap to buy, and can be thrown on the back of a tractor let alone into the bed of a truck even by a slovenly 55 year old who would die if he ran 25 feet.you'll notice a lot of these crappy bikes have a giant fucking hole in the middle of the frame but use some off-the-shelf battery that doesn't fit in that space at all, and have a conspicuous something missing just ahead of the saddle. it's because that's where a tine 100-200 cc engine and gas tank would have gone>>2067571it's literally just cost-saving. small tire = less material = maybe you die but the margin for the seller was higher

>>2067585The US hasn't declared 'war' since 1942, quibbling about legal technicalities is dumb
>>2067588>The US hasn't declared 'war' since 1942And for good reason, since no conflict that the US has fought since 1942 was ever in defense of the US mainland, so it makes far more sense to call them special military operations, since no US civilian lives or infrastructure are actually under threat, thus no military actions that might put US civilians or infrastructure at risk are actually carried out, thus they don't require direct Congressional authorization
I am a railway fan from Moscow. In my free time, I make videos of trains, subways, and transportation. Ask questions about my activities, and the transport of my country, stereotypes, in general, everything that is interesting, I will try to answer.
>>2061434iirc the metro series is a bunch of ex-GSC Gameworld guys and GSC is a ukranian studio. in fact i think Stalker 2 famously got a release trailer with a hard date then and then a week later they got invaded and had to put out a press release basically saying "For obvious reasons, the game is likely to be delayed" and then did a bunch of honestly kinda dark marketing about how their lived experience will influence the vidya when things calm down and dickwaving about getting declared an "undesirable organization" by russiaotoh i cant think of many iconic russian video games, most of the "slavjank" cult classic vidya is made in ukraine or poland>>2066170not op but afaik russia is similar to canada in that it has a line of mostly unremarkable cities from coast to coast despite amerimutts thinking it is empty except for a few igloos and yuropoors thinking it's near-continuous urbanization like japan. most of the country above that line is empty and will always be empty because it is Cold, Bro

I saw there's threads of any kind but not for the most important part of the bike, the seat.So this it will be a /bsg/ Bike seat generalTell me your most comfortable seat, because I got a shitty standard one that break my ass
>>2066350It depends on your riding position.The seat you posted is for a comfort/city bike with a pretty upright riding position.If you lean forward too much with a wider seat like that, you'll slide forward because your legs will be rubbing against it.
>>2065664Yesterday I took my touring bike out for the first time since fall, so nice to ride on that well broken in B17, nothing is as comfortable. Almost want to buy B17s for all my bikes but probably won't, kind of prefer something firmer when I am not doing distances.
Getting back into riding for the first time in years and my bike has an old superlite seat from the 90s and now my asshole/gooch hurts really bad
>>2065997Same here, landed on Selle Italia SLR boost gravel L3 on my specialized diverge gravel rig (fit is on the aggressive side - no spacers, quite a bit of saddle-to-bar drop). Tried both S3 and L3 versions, L3 had better support (115 mm sit bones). Tried around 10 most hyped saddles of different shapes, brands and padding. Had couple of 2-5 hour rides so far, 0 saddle issues.
