Normal Airport Ads: Drink Coca-cola! Eat McDonalds! Earn status points! Buy an iPhone! Ads at DCA: In the market for a new tank? No? How about a Cylon Raider?
Photo of a black wall-mounted advertisement in an airport concourse. Large white text reads "BUILT FULL-MISSION CAPABLE" next to the orange and white Keel logo. Smaller text below says "Systems That Detect, Defend and Defeat by Keel." The image shows a tan M1 Abrams-style battle tank on red dirt in front of a pine forest. The URL keelusa.com is at the bottom. Enjoy your flight!Photo of a backlit airport advertisement above a "B C D E Gates" sign. The Shield AI logo sits over the headline "The World's First AI-Piloted VTOL Fighter Jet." The render shows three dark, delta-winged aircraft standing tail-down on launch stands and trailers, lit by glowing floodlights against a starry night sky. Text at the bottom reads "Learn more @ shield.ai." This is essentially a real-life Cylon Raider from Battlestar Galactica, it’s just missing the red eye. So say we all!

Max Scherzer going on short rest to catch Verlander's strikeout total -- and nearly damn well doing it -- is some all time inner circle king petty shit, and I mean that in the most complimentary way imaginable. You gotta tip your cap to a true psycho, and Max Scherzer is an all-time baseball psycho.

<<cackles darkly>> How much of this tech bro shit is driven by the disappearance of female secretaries, who, let's be honest, kept a lot of companies running, and ability of wives to now say "No, time, honey, got a board meeting then school pickup, you gotta make the res for your mom's bday."

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

Federal aviation officials are preparing to launch an AI-powered air-traffic tool in one of the nation’s busiest corridors as soon as Monday.

The software, known as Smart, is expected to help the Federal Aviation Administration and airlines reduce delays and cancellations and find routes for flights when disruptions scramble air traffic. It will first debut in the Washington, D.C., area ahead of a b

A few months ago, it occurred to me that Hegseth looked like Melted Kuchi Kopi from *Bob's Burgers* and I've never been able to unsee it
Melted Kuchi Kopi, aka "Bad Kuchi Kopi," a lime-green Japanese vinyl toy from *Bob's Burgers.* He was accidentally melted after being left too long in the oven; his original anodyne smiling appearance has smooshed down into a hostile, aggravated frown. (Like most accidents in *Bob's Burgers,* how and why he was put in the oven in the first place is a really long story.)

From the NYT article, quote from Mr Maisel who passed at 95. Never thought of photography this way before. My answer, it is about the process of seeing, feeling, thinking, sharing the experience. Photographing is more important than the photograph.
Do you like photographing or do you like photographs?
