News@lemmy.world•Nashville airport board unanimously approves name change to honor Dolly Parton
1·2 days agoTrunk about how many things say the name of the airport. Tons of road signs, which are not cheap. Internal signs in the building. External signs. Every shirt and name badge of every employee (hundreds of not 1000). All the software. Every airline has to update stuff.

2·2 days agoThe state already tried naming it Trump and it stalled when the city (who share control of the airport) didn’t also pass it. Then an airport in Florida took the name, so that’s moot now.
So it is a continuation of the “we can rename the airport something different” momentum, but Trump was a name isn’t really a risk any more. Someone like Fred Thompson would be more likely until Dolly became an option.

281·3 days agoWe like the idea. The people in Nashville are a little miffed that it’ll cost more than $10 million. We’d rather see that go to transit or education (and I think Dolly would have too).
Just put up a statue in the airport like Austin has SRV and use the money for something better
You think that’s it? This was a very real photo taken last year. You can see the exif data on the version on my Flickr stream

News@lemmy.world•PBS broadcaster loses access to 50TB of data comprising 70 years of TV history after contracted cloud storage vendor goes defunct
21·1 month agoI did. Did you not read mine? If a single 3rd party entity is setting up all your backups, then that single entity still controls your destiny. That’s still a bad idea.

21·1 month agoA single place can’t do 3-2-1. That’s not “3” (just a single company = single point of failure, as demonstrated here)
That’s when it cross-posts. That’s a Lemmy function. The original post works right.
It was fairly close, actually. I think I tweaked the contrast up a bit, but I don’t think I even played with saturation much, if any. White balance/color is just how Darktable treated the raw file by default
It’s the 2012 Sea Lion Amphibious Prototype car. A 1-of-a-kind hand built car designed to break land and water speed records for amphibious cars.

It’s now at the Lane Motor Museum in Nashville, TN

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you sent a lone modern tank like a Abrams, Leopard, or black panther back to WW2 with a continuous supply of spare parts, ammo, fuel etc. Would it make a difference?
12·1 month agoThat would still be a huge advantage over any other machine of war in the history of warfare, even today.
You could say “how much difference would a single modern tank with unlimited ammo, fuel, and share parts make in Afghanistan in 2010” and the answer would be at least “very significant”
