the astroturf is strong with this one
Yeah, the most common problem with conspiracy theories: two can keep a secret, if one is dead.
In the absence of useful evidence, apply the appropriate razor(s):
- Alder's razor (also known as Newton's flaming laser sword): If something cannot be settled by experiment or observation, then it is not worthy of debate.
- Hanlon's razor: Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
- Hitchens' razor: That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
- Occam's razor: Explanations that require fewer unjustified assumptions are more likely to be correct; avoid unnecessary or improbable assumptions.
- Popper's falsifiability criterion: For a theory to be considered scientific, it must be falsifiable.
- Sagan standard: Positive claims require positive evidence, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
Or maybe they knew they had a temperature warning but decided they couldn't stop safely and hoped they could deal with it in the air, but then the engine fell off. The fire and losing the engine may have damaged the control surfaces on that wing.
I have experience managing multiple network systems with user-facing endpoints. That's irrelevant.
Nothing critical on a passenger-carrying vehicle should be remotely managed and it definitely should be frozen while the bus is in active service. The last thing a crowded bus in motion needs is the lights randomly going out because someone decided it was time for a patch install.
The right choice from a security and safety perspective is for any wireless interfaces on the vehicle to be read-only - they can send data out (like current location). Pushing software changes should require direct physical access, and should only work if the vehicle is parked. Anything else is a stupid unnecessary risk.
Video shared by WLKY showed the left engine ablaze as the aircraft tried to lift off.
That's weird. Did the sensors fail to recognize the fire, or did the crew know about it and decide it was too late to abort the takeoff?
I agree in general, but I was referring to Fawkes. The Gunpowder Plot was a group of religious nuts who wanted to blow people up for God.
Damn this one's been slapped by the JPEG stick.
Legends say there was legible text in there somewhere, once upon a time.

Ride the monorail, they said. It'll be fun, they said.
Hmm, what opening did they use?
People like you discouraged votes for Harris, and handed Trump his second term.
