minus-squareIron Lynx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up34·1 month agoI remember seeing something like that years ago. A few more that popped to my memory just now: PILOT: autopilot altitude hold has a 100 ft/min descent. MECHANIC: cannot reproduce issue on ground. PILOT: evidence of tyre leak in left main landing gear. MECHANIC: evidence removed. PILOT: [system] behaves funny. MECHANIC: [system] has been firmly told to get their shit together and straighten up their act. PILOT: strange sounds behind console. Sounds like a midget beating things with a hammer. MECHANIC: hammer taken from midget
minus-squareGabe Bell@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 month agoThere was something about the speaker being at an unbelievable volume as well?
minus-squareWarl0k3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·edit-21 month agoIf I’m remembering right it was: PILOT: Headset volume is unbelievably loud. MECHANIC: Headset volume has been set to a more believable level. A few more I remember from way back when: PILOT: Mouse found in cockpit. MECHANIC: Cat installed. PILOT: Something loose in cockpit Mechanic: Something tightened in cockpit PILOT: Friction locks cause throttle to stick. MECHANIC: Good, they’re supposed to. (How did you get a new line without a blank line between them??? Formatting shouldn’t be this hard.)
minus-squareIron Lynx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·edit-21 month agoPILOT: dead bugs on windshield. MECHANIC: live bugs on back order. PILOT: suspect crack in windshield. MECHANIC: suspect you’re right. PILOT: number 3 engine missing. MECHANIC: Engine found on right wing after brief search. On another note, I found a version closer to The Source: right here
minus-squareIron Lynx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·edit-21 month agoAlso, with regards to formatting, a manual line end, without the blank line in between, like a HTML tag <br />, is achieved by having two spaces just before the line break. Like this.
minus-squarefilcuk@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoWhy is that, though? Why not line break where I’ve entered a line break? Two spaces can be a pain on mobile
