I guess it varies between airlines. I said adult because that’s what my usual airline says when I reserve an exit row seat online. But I don’t see a reason why the average 15 year old wouldn’t be able to do it.

Unless the emergency exit is manned by the crew, they need a passenger there who can open the hatch if needed.

Normally this isn’t a problem, as someone usually prefers that seat due to the extra legroom. If there aren’t many passengers on the flight, and nobody has booked that seat in advance they might assign that seat early in the process so that someone who isn’t fit to sit there can have someone else take their place.

A few times, on smaller flights with free seating, I’ve been asked if I can man the emergency exit. I normally sit far forward on these flights, but I don’t care hard enough, so I’m happy to oblige.

As for who can sit there, it’s not a particularly high bar: any adult who is reasonably fit who is comfortable with being responsible for the emergency exit.

Saved you a click: maybe. Many podiatrist think so. They’re OK occasionally, but not for everyday use.

Not necessarily a “thing”, but those two are common allergens, and they’re often found in soups.

Wrecking ball duelling. But I’d pay to see others do it with each their own tower crane.

Got born.

Your cat hears the promises of a rooster coming and knows for sure he’s gonna die. She’s waiting to score a kill.

Yeah, that’s the guy, I think.

“With great claims come great responsibility”

That guy from Spiderman, probably

Yes. I’ve always had a bit of a slouch. Looking like a bum is one thing, but when my back started aching as I turned 40, I figured something had to change.

Now, when I walk down the street, I pretend my nipples are laser guns, and I pretend to shoot people in the head. It’s surprisingly effective.

Two Raspberry Pi Zero W arrived in the mail today. One will be a VPN gateway for when I’m out and about and I wanna log into my home network.
The other one might be a print and scan server.

I’ve set up the basics on one of them and connected to an unused USB port in my TV for power so that I can ssh into it and tinker with it during idle hours.

I have a bunch of SD cards leftover from work, and I intend to set up various images for various uses, so I can move the boards around as I please and just swap the card to whatever I want to do.

The boards are dirt cheap, so I kind of wish I had bought more than two.

International recognition and support, mostly.

Found the Ferengi

I don’t know enough music theory to know if it fits the definition of downward modulation, but upon reading your question I immediately thought of Portishead - Glorybox

Oh… OH… Jane’s fucked, isn’t she?

What’s a pip in this context? I’m sure the Project Interference Projection that I’m thinking of is not applicable.

Depends a lot on the sheets. I find that the ones in hotels are both clean and crisp, but I find the fabric to be too course.

At home it’s not as clean and crisp, but it’s a lot more comfy.

Contrary to popular belief, you are actually factually spot on. It is all described in detail in soviet-era files, locked away.

Even JD Vance confirms this, ans I challenge FSB to release any documentation that disputes it.

Canal Digital. Scammers.

Nothing interesting, I’m afraid. A picture of a network stack at work. I would upload if it wasn’t for Voyager refusing to play nice.
