Delayed by one hour so far! But the good news is SBARRO
@actualham Sbarro gets me every time. One always seems to appear during the most hopeless of excursions so it's like an oasis in the desert and even when there are better options, I can't resist.
Did I say oasis? I meant mirage.

If it then turns into a congregation of 6 rando dudes without uniforms, it IS a cousin/neighbor offering to see what they can do.
Whatchya' Reckon ⁉️
I dunno, seems like the starter motor just isn't spinning the turbine up fast enough to start feeding fuel.Or maybe, we're getting an error like a door's ajar, but cannot find that stupid contact switch location. It won't tell us which door/hatch.
blah,blah,blah.

@actualham safe travels. I hope your back feels better soon (and that Netflix talent scouts are reading your great writing and offer you a mini-series, a shoe deal, a book and a Mattel Open Educational Airport Woman action mini-figure line). ⚡️🦸♂️ 💪
@Eamon would totally buy those

@sysop408 the make very good LOOKING pizza! But they taste so awful! Maybe I ate some kind of paper maché display pizza…

It’s weird how at this point like 99% of us would vote to just take off, bad engine and all, and just take our chances.
@actualham at this point I would vote you in as the Idris Elba in Hijack of the plane, with the authority to negotiate safe arrival for all

@xolotl @actualham just don't take the subway with her…

Pilot just announced another 20-30 minutes. Maybe. I digress from this lighthearted thread about delays and decapitation to say in all seriousness
American air travel is inhumane, and as physically and emotionally rigorous as almost anything.

And now I’m back to lighthearted posting when I say that they are testing the engine “by giving it a few good revs.”

I don’t think the revs were good enough 🫤

@actualham how many engines do you really need anyway?

@xolotl Idris would never have eaten at Sbarro 😞

@actualham Love to hear the pilot talk like he’s trying to get a beater Chrysler to start.

@actualham you get a pass on that given the slim pickins you have at the ready in NH. The pizza in PDX is so precious we sneer at any shop without "apizza" in its name...

Guy With A Wrench is now in the cockpit talking to the pilot (his cousin?). Seems like not a good sign.

@actualham maybe the emergency brake is on?

You _know_ you wanna go. ✈️ -

Confirmed: the Wrench Guy could not fix it. They are trying something else for 20-30 mins and then I’m likely looking at deplaning and the complete annihilation of any spirit I had left in me.

At least it’s not just me. Now we ALL have back pain.

Something about the loss of daylight, each minute ticking by. End of shift is nigh. They are trying to come up with plan, for a plan, a magic trick to make it look like they're doing stuff, but are in fact not going to make good on this scheduled flight. It's not the weather.
It's the airline.

@yosh @eniko That's a helpful taxonomy, yeah. I'm guessing that by thr same logic, autoconf and friends are meta–build systems? I'm also curious where task runners like just or do-runner (my own attempt) fit into the picture — basically tools for keeping collections of tiny shell scripts.
I ask because make is a weird one to me in that it's both a build system and a task runner (thanks to .PHONY).
-
- make is a build system: it builds your code
- cmake is a meta-build system: it builds your build systemWhich might seem confusing until you realize that build systems and compiler toolchains are often tied to specific operating systems. If you want to build portable code it helps to have something to abstract over them.

@conchoid you're going to be shocked to hear this, but when I want to make art I want to just make art I don't want to spend hours reading "man pages" instead

@duke_of_germany I use visual studio. Or a batch file. Or a shell script
