So we shouldn't be concerned anymore by the "bus factor" of Mastodon, but now by the "boeing factor" ?

@Gargron

Boeing Joke 1/3

A group of Boeing employees are sitting on a plane getting ready for takeoff.
The pilot comes on over the intercom and says "Folks, we're pleased to have you flying with us on our brand new 737, fresh from our good friends at Boeing!"

Immediately, the Boeing employees all scramble to get out of their seats and off the plane as quickly as possible. It's utter pandemonium in the aisles as everyone starts to panic.

@Gargron oh my god

@Gargron maybe it‘s time for airlines to offer an option like „don‘t fly with Boing“ or „Fly with [ ] Airbus [ ] Boing“

@Gargron glad y'all made it out okay but still: fuck Boeing

@Gargron was it a United flight, or another airline?

@Gargron be careful what you wish for

@Gargron I hope you are fine!

@Gargron Turns out, so did the CEO. https://www.thedailybeast.com/boeing-ceo-dave-calhoun-says-he-will-step-down-amid-safety-fears

@Gargron The chance of this happening is so low, but the frequency of things happening with Boeing planes is going through the roof. Risk assessment of picking flights by aircraft manufacturers is suddenly on the table when flying commercial.
