Accidents and incidents
gollark: Most of the planes I've been on have only had "normal" seating as far as I could tell. Those have mostly been shortish journeys around Europe, so that might be why.
gollark: BTW I use ArchThe AUR is very nice, it still seems to have lots of available binary packages, and it's pretty lightweight.
gollark: Lunar colonization!
gollark: No, that just means it's physically connected so your computer can exchange data with it.
gollark: Virtual use. Basically, attaching its contents to your filesystem.
