iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I’ve written a whole diatribe on the Port and their obsession with Delta/SkyTeam/etc. There are slots at NRT with a ton of connectivity, that should be the focus.

Two callouts, Atlas Air and The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. 1) is this just execs going back and forth from White Plains to Anchorage? 2) I just find this one odd. They’re doing enough corp business to get a shoutout but it raises more questions than answers.

Who thought this was a good idea? Just make it a door with storage inside. Not only will people lose stuff, it will break on the third flight and be inoperative for months.

If they want an incentive from the Port they should go to ICN apparently.

They’ll finally be able to justify some of their crazy F pricing on transcons. Kind of.

The MAX 10s with the premium config will also get the "Aurora" livery treatment. No Chester on the tail if you get the better seats on board.

Alaska 737 with the "Aurora" livery rather than the traditional face on the tail.

My personal opinion, watching F-16s intercept little Cessnas that are doing 90 kts across the ground is way too entertaining.

There was another TFR for the NFL game in Miami that didn’t post publicly either. It was violated as well.

Air Traffic Control was actively directing planes into the TFR airspace because they had no visibility of the TFR either. 15 planes violated the TFR, 10 were intercepted.

So Port of Portland and PDX very loudly stated they wouldn’t have the Kristi Noem TSA/DHS video playing but they very quietly started showing the Markwayne Mullin video.

Crazy. That was such a fun trip.

For being so terrified of Sharia Law they sure do like the “aesthetic” of Sharia Law.

Haven't been loving the UI changes to MacOS and have had issues with my Windows machines I am tempted to go back to just being a Linux only user. Are there any good laptop options out there for a Linux user?

I mean, you're not wrong. I'm just saying it's something I haven't had and sounds nice.

I'd avoid the lemon pesto spaghetti. I've tried it twice and wasn't impressed. The BBQ pork potato is... fine. The most compelling on that list to me is the shrimp dish.

Cranes are on-site at the Tillamook Air Museum to remove the damaged pieces of the roof as part of the restoration effort.

@airlineflyer.net @byerussell.com do either of you know why the new Airo train sets would have four fewer bike positions?

If you are planning to “walk in” to Costco for an immunization, just note that in Portland, they don’t actually take walk-ins after 5pm. They seem to arbitrarily apply this rule…

FAA had a radar outage at JFK yesterday morning. Today it moves down the Northeast to PHL Center and impacts EWR. Oh and PHL Center has a staffing shortage for EWR. And there’s VIP ground stops at JFK. And the weather ain’t great.

We’ve had two Guardians and they’ve been ok, front brake has worked in the advertised manner. We are ready for a multi-speed now and we’re going with Islabikes if I can find a used one.

An interesting (and unplanned) bit came up on this week's recording with @stephan.wtf and @wandrme.paxex.aero this afternoon, comparing Ryanair with US U/LCCs. Ryanair has 2200+ unique city pairs in its network. Frontier has ~300. #AvGeek

Based on some feedback, they help feed onward ground connections to people’s hometowns surrounding the major cities that are only available 1-2x/day.

The ultimate kick in the shin for us American elder millennials will be when the AI bubble bursts and collapses a huge chunk of the stock market with it, leaving us with limited time for our retirement portfolios to recover.

Yeah, Avianca has some super bizarre ones.

I don’t think I will ever understand AeroMexico’s reverse redeyes from Europe.

You have to specify which way to turn my head Do you mean toward the pedestrian plaza lined with bikes and tree cover or the narrow one-way residential street with a 20 km/h speed limit and also bikes lining every inch

A pedestrianized area lined with bikes and a half a dozen trees

A street in the Netherlands showing a 20 km/h speed limit, bikes lining the street, and plenty of green infill spots

Rub it in why don't you. 😜

So you can turn your head away from your phone and see bike infrastructure that isn't so fragile being heavily used day in and day out?

Stephan Segraves @stephan.wtf · 10/09/2026

Maybe they got the two plates in the mail and thought, "we can have fleet vehicles now"

If this was car infrastructure there would be riots.

This morning's Bike Bus was spectacular! Many new faces including one kiddo's first time biking in the street! Also, a new volunteer to help guide our families through the neighborhood. Bike Bus builds community!

After pining for months (okay, years), we recently bought a e-cargo bike and it has de-stressed our kid logistics and increased our "let's go to the park!". Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Wow. I had a domain from a company I was part of 15+ years ago and found out today that the auto-renewal I had setup stopped working for some reason over a year ago and GoDaddy (who I didn’t register it through) bought it and is now selling it for $10k. 🙄

“Feels less private”? What in the actual fuck? Was she using the bathroom with the door open?
