I have no idea how anything financial works, but it's posts like this that keep me hooked.

>On Monday evening, Southwest representatives at Denver International Airport made an announcement over airport terminal speakers indicating flight rebooking for stranded passengers would not be available until Friday, according to a CNN team at the airport.
>The announcement also said new bookings would not be possible until January 3.
Kek. I'd hate to be a Southwest wagie after hearing that announcement and seeing the mob of angry people in front of me.

I was just about to book some roundtrip tickets with them yesterday. Was going to get the lowest tier since it was cheapest, but what made me hold off on it was the fact that the tickets were explicitly non-refundable. I decided to wait for confirmation of something else before getting the tickets. Glad I did.

Personally, I've never had a problem with SW. I've flown with them a ton. But my city's airport is pretty low traffic for being international, so that could be why it's so smooth.

I only fly spirit

>>53027495
I don't usually fly southwest other than rarely when the company travel agent puts me in. Actually booked this flight using canceled fare from March 2020 trip that got canceled due to the scamdemic.

The company lost track of the flight crews, and without being on legal rest, none of them can fly. So the crew members have to pay for their own hotels, while the company sorts it out.

Best cheap flights from LAX? Thinking Austin or Denver

>>53027599
>So, we had People that were legal. We had aircraft that were available, but the process of matching up those Crew Members with the aircraft could not be handled by our technology. In our desired state, we have a solver that would be able to do that very quickly and very accurately. Our system today cannot do that. As a result, we had to ask our Crew Schedulers to do this manually, and it's extraordinarily difficult. They must verify that you are legal. They can't just have the next person up, so to speak. They have to look through everyone's board and reassign. So that is a tedious, long process. And every day we try to repair the Crew network. They would make great progress, and then some other disruption would happen, and it would unravel their work. So, we spent multiple days where we kind of got close to finishing the problem, and then it had to be reset.

>>53027198
An airliner going down is not anywhere close to a Lehman moment. All airliners had most of their fleet grounded for a fucking year during the pandemic. There are a dozen other things you could point to that could be the actual Lehman. BoJ capitulating on their YCC? Pension funds in UK and EU on the verge of blowing up due to overleveraging with bonds as collateral? Rising interest rates forcing a recession while banks are just as leveraged as they were before the 2008 crisis despite regulation being there to prevent that exact scenario?

>>53028864
Southwest accounts for 50% of all cancellations globally you fucking moron. No other airline is having this problem. The problem is caused by southwest having infrastructure from the 1980s. The executives have consistently laid off employees and increased their own annual bonuses while the company makes record profits. Their greed and hubris has now caught up to them.

Basically the cattle got vaxxed and now they are reaping, as in cancers and aids to name a few.

tldr; the airlines don't have qualified personnel to operate the airports and planes, because it takes years to train new recruits

>>53030059
Literally not what’s happening. Southwests business model is designed in such a way that if there is any major disruption to operations the entire thing falls apart. Leadership never reinvested any of their profits into the company. You have flight crews trying to CALL to figure out where they’re supposed to be but they can’t get through because southwest doesn’t hire enough staff to handle anything other than perfectly normal operations. This isn’t a conspiracy. This is just a poorly run company finally having their greed catch up to them.
>SWA employees checking bags for flights they know are cancelled and then refusing to give back the bags
>SWA sending peoples bags to their destinations on empty flights or ground transport and then telling customers they probably won’t get their luggage back for months
>SWA requiring frontline employees to work 24-36 hour shifts when all the employees can do is apologize and sit on their hands
It’s a complete collapse and meltdown of their entire infrastructure. They don’t even have tools for their planes right now.

>>53027198
>This is literally the Lehman moment

because the shortage that will become apparent is not gasoline but diesel and jet fuel. there isn't enough heavy oil available to make those.

>hurrr durrr peak oil.....then how the fuck is gas still under $4 a gallon if we hit peak?

by the way we did hit peak oil in 2018 unless the 2018 global production can be beaten. it hasnt been so far.

Yeah southwest is usually based, can take flights within the Midwest/southwest extremely cheaply if you churn their credit cards. I haven’t paid for a flight in that half of the country ever, can regularly get flights round trip for 20k points or less

>>53030059
Southwest wasn't forcing the vaxx in their employees and yet they still don't have enough staff because they don't pay their ground crews or pilots enough. This is why OP is calling it a Lehman moment because normies are dropping out of society because it's no longer worth working, it's already been happening with shitty fast food or retail jobs; this is the first time an industry that supposedly pays a living wage is collapsing.

>The incorrect narrative provided by mainstream media (MSM) is that climate change is our worst problem.

This is the narrative that the fossil fuel lobby has been pushing every since it became apparent that renewables actually will be viable soon. Battery tech + virtualization of many activities + power efficient computing + renewable tech advancing + fusion on the distant horizon. FF will still have to exist for the foreseeable future for heavy fuels + plastics + chemistry, but that's actually the WORST case scenario. It would be EASY if they could just go out of business, but now you have to tell investors that they can't pull their money out and the corporations HAVE to stay solvent, but the profits are kaput and they're probably going to take a loss long-term. They don't want that; they want to hold the world hostage, and a part of the world wants it, too since they put way too much capital in these ventures. But the only sane path forward is loss-leading with oil so that we have infrastructure when it runs out, and the political stability that comes with that. Placating Co2mers is how you get WWIII, and we've known this for at least 2 generations now.

This
I’d hate to have to be in charge of maintaining that code base

>>53031290
>no one has wondered
Millions of people have. The reason is that diesel is a small fraction of what you get from processing crude, and it's in higher demand than usual due to increased usage of oil burning power plants (blame russia) and inefficient trucking logistics from consumer demand volatility (blame the coof shutdown pushers).

>>53031219
I’m skeptical about the Peak Oil yarn (they’ve been spinning that yarn since the 70s), but combine harvesters and trucks shipping the annual harvest still runs on gas and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Musk’s E-truck is an expensive meme and Lithium mining is absolutely toxic, renders groundwater undrinkable and destroys entire local ecosystems.
The way to go is to heavily incentivize the use of public transport and build nuclear powerplants.

>>53035382
>screencap

>>53035382
Pretty much, tons of flight attendants got stranded in random cities and couldn’t get hotels because they were booked with passengers already. So they’re all calling crew scheduling and the wait times have been as long as 7 hours. And schedulers don’t know where most of them are.

>>53028839
Has Tverberg stopped using the graph showing peak oil in 2014 yet?

>>53028539
Interdasting.

>>53035478
Also, being on the phone trying to get scheduled counts against the federally regulated travel time they can have, which means that the employees are getting timed out while trying to figure out where they’re supposed to be for work compounding the problem.

>>53037133
The FAA also has mandatory rest periods for flight crews and pilots, and they can’t start those rest periods until they get into a hotel room.

>>53027298

>>53027375
cool kids read Etteila

The actual issue:

>I have friends in CS and the hotel assignment side too. There were 2 specific problems, the software for scheduling is woefully antiquated by at least 20 years. No app/internet options, all manual entry and it has settings that you DO NOT CHANGE for fear of crashing it. Those settings create the automated flow as a crewmember is moving about their day, it doesn’t know you flew the leg DAL-MCO it just assumes it and moves your piece forward. In the event of a disruption you call scheduling and they manually adjust you. It does work, it just works for an airline 1/3 the size of SWA. So the storm came and it impacted ground ops so bad that many many crews were now “unaccounted” for and the system in place couldn’t keep up. Then it happened for several more days. By Xmas evening the CS department had essentially reached the inability to do anything but simple, one off assignments. And to make matters worse, the phone system was updated not too long ago and it was not working well. Last nite they did a web form and had planned to get the system up as much as possible with what communication they could muster, however it was too much to keep up on and ultimately the method for tracking crews failed again. This 100% is at the feet of all management who refused to invest in technology updates because it is the southwest way to be stuck in 1993.

You absolutely can build a nuclear reactor around a small pellet of fuel, if you use the correct geometry and have a high enough neutron flux. The real trouble is power transfer to the drivetrain of a car. Whether you use stream or electric you have a heatsink problem

No im serious, you cannot. Its not that we haven't gotten there technology wise, its that it cannot be done. Its not feasible.

>>53040556
No he didn't you dumb nigger. He's talking about putting a small pellet of fuel in a tiny reactor in a car. As I said, that is literally not possible. Nuclear reactors need to be big.

>>53040571
why do they need to be big? could it possibly be related to physical limits of thermal interface materials?

A nuclear reactor is any vessel containing a progressing nuclear reaction, they can be as big or as small as nuclear cross sections, neutron flux, and neutron temperature allow. The radioactive boy scout almost did it, and these fucker at U Chicago actually made one that worked: https://mag.uchicago.edu/science-medicine/homemade-breeder-reactor

If you're talking about a full nuclear POWERPLANT then yes I agree, but with clever engineering it's very possible to take a small nugget of highly enriched Uranium (or Plutonium which I would bet would work even better)

>>53040571
i've been ASKED TO WORK ON NUCLEAR SYSTEMS AND DENIED IT you fucking FAGGOT
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhhZ-9jQDQw

>>53040571
> Nuclear reactors need to be big. If you have any idea at all about how nuclear reactors work, then you'd understand why that wouldn't work.
I am really dying to hear your explanation

>>53040579
No, mostly because in order to actually generate energy, you need to heat A LOT of water to generate A LOT of steam to push a giant turbine to generate an actual, usable amount of electricity. We've tried tiny reactors already, its not possible.

If nuclear FUSION was real and not entirely science fiction, it MIGHT be possible to create a small enough fusion reactor to fit in a car. But right now, fusion is looking more and more like an actual impossibility.

>>53040597
you don't even realize that the root cause of the problem you are describing is the nonexistence of thermal interface materials of high enough performance

>>53040585
Yes im sure you're a PhD in nuclear physics anon. Spending your time on an anime imageboard. Come on.

>>53040477
The point is we'll never really know what is and what isn't feasible with nuclear because hippies cut our collective nuts off as a species and it'll take another ten centuries at least to fully explore the potential of this technology. Unfortunately by that point the entire world will basically be South Africa and shortly devolve into cannibalism after. At least maybe the dolphins will get it right in 60 million years or so.

>>53040584
*possible to take a small nugget of enriched U or Pu and generate a short lived self-sustaining nuclear reaction that would pretty much be impossible to moderate in any meaningful way
>>53040597
You don't know the difference between a nuclear reactor and a nuclear powerplant
And speaking as someone who's worked on multiple fusion project, fusion reactors would never be small enough to fit in cars, ever, because of the need for confinement apparatus in addition to a neutron absorber. You know dick all about nuclear engineering, shut the fuck up

>>53040603
So you are saying that if they can make materials that more effectively transfer the heat to water to steam to energy, without exploding, that itd be feasible then? Go ahead and try. Make a nuclear powered car and ill be the first to buy.

>>53040604
PhDs are for retarded niggers, anon
what is the time value of money?

>>53040614
I can't because there are no existing thermal interface materials that would enable me to do so
are you paying attention?

>>53040612
Wow so many nuclear project managers on this anime imageboard my GOSH. Sorry Mr doctor, I didn't know.

Fuck off you dumbass niggers. Ive actually studied nuclear since the fucking 80s. You retards read articles on dailymail and think you're college educated. Kill yourselves.

>>53040634
you've been BTFOd at every turn

>>53040621
Im telling you to go and make them and then make a nuclear powered car.

>>53040634
>Ive actually studied nuclear since the fucking 80s.
So in 40 years you've never learned the difference between a nuclear reactor and a nuclear powerplant? Sounds like you need to study for another 40

>>53040639
No I haven't, because you people don't know what the fuck you're even talking about. You seem to barely grasp the idea you're trying to present.

>>53040641
hey buddy. I entered this conversation by stating that you and the other anon were both correct, because the thermal interface material cannot be made

>>53040643
Tell me the difference, oh wise one. Tell me how significant your point is and how you can build a nuclear reactor in a car.

Fucking morons on biz I swear. You better not live in my country.

>>53040660
You're seething so much you don't even realize I already did here >>53040584
You need to chill out a little dude, you sound mad

>>53040679
40 years of nuclear physics but not a morsel of reading comprehension...

I just said I wanted a nuclear-powered car why is everyone now angry and shouting

bros the three of us should start a company

>>53040679
A nuclear power plant contains a nuclear reactor. A nuclear reactor, by itself, does not produce any electricity. It produces ENERGY, but you need to turn that energy into electricity, which is what the power plant does. If youre suggesting that you can just plop a mini reactor in a car and make it make the wheels turn, you're actually an idiot. And if youre talking about a nuclear FUSION reactor at all, youre not just an idiot, youre a real fucking moron.

>>53040653
>>53040660
BTW interesting how you describe nuclear power generation in a hilariously vague way like here >>53040597
Yet I clearly demonstrate that I have some knowledge of the field and understand its principals and understand things like the six factor formula and cross section resonances and you're not getting more technical

>>53040697
BECAUSE YOURE DREAMS ARE STUPID AND SO ARE YOU

>>53040704
right, so you can create a mini nuclear reactor, but not a mini nuclear power plant, because of a lack of thermal interface material performance, which explains the heatsink problem

>>53040712
Imagine the dude who first thought of wanting to see images on a electric powered screen attached to a box tube.

>>53040704
>If youre suggesting that you can just plop a mini reactor in a car and make it make the wheels turn, you're actually an idiot.
Except I never did, go ahead and read each of my posts

>>53040725
Science has limits and any real scientist would tell you that. You can't turn a fish into a dog, for example. A nuclear powered car is science fiction.

>>53040704
Alright so please explain to me, a novice, what is the fundamental difference between
>A coal power plant that burns coal to produce steam that turns a turbine to power an electrical grid
>A coal powered train that functionally does the same thing but small
Or
>Natural gas power plant
>Car that runs on natural gas
Or
>Solar plant
>Solar powered vehicles
And
>Nuclear plant
>Nuclear vehicles
We already have nuclear powered ships and submarines. Are you saying it's strictly a matter of just size?

>>53040728
You said you could build a small reactor around a tiny pellet of enriched uranium and put it in a car, just that it would have problems Yada Yada. Im telling you that what you are suggesting is in no way feasible. If you agree with that then great, why are you still replying?

>>53040745
Size, and also they can make nuclear powered water borne vessels because they have easy access to water. You need a lot of water to make a lot of steam to generate just a small amount of electricity.

>>53040736
The New York Times published an article on why human flight wouldn't be possible about 2 days before the Wright Brothers took their first flight. Your problem is simply a lack of imagination. Instead of focusing on why it's impossible, ask what would have to happen for it to be made possible. Therein lies the solution.
>inb4 "THE SOLUTION IS EVERYONE IS DUMB EXCEPT ME" or some variation
ngmi

>>53040745
the same reason that it is easier to make money when you are already rich

>>53040768
My gasoline car doesn't require steam, neither does a natural gas car. I don't think electric vehicles require them either.
So this seems irrelevant to me. Maybe we're all just talking past each other.

>>53040771
ok but the things that would have to happen include frictionless mechanical interfaces, lossless electrical interfaces, adiabatic thermal interfaces, etc.

>>53040771
Turn a fish into a dog and then we'll talk about making nuclear powered cars, you hopelessly idealistic fool.

>>53040759
Because you're being a disingenuous faggot. I also said
>>53040612
>generate a short lived self-sustaining nuclear reaction that would pretty much be impossible to moderate in any meaningful way
Which you also ignored
I never said " you can just put it in a car" I just said small nuclear reactors are possible at that size, because just saying "science has limits" is a hilariously vague and stupid statement. The "science" could be the thermal engineering which yes makes it infeasible
"science" could also mean nuclear physics, and yes, funnily enough if you know anything about nuclear physics you can actually build really small reactor cores but as I said multiple times, impossible to use.
Thanks for pretty much confirming you're just some larping moron, not once did you ever bring up actual nuclear physics or fuel/moderator engineering, just power plant stuff any college engineering freshman knows

>>53040793
Whales were once dog-like land mammals so this already happened millions of years before you started studying nuclear energy at your prestigious Phoenix University so thanks for playing

>>53040815
I'm getting the feeling he's just brown, indians and arabs are fucking arrogant and will just yammer on about how much more they know and how much more they're qualified without once ever demonstrating technical knowledge

What did you see and hear? Are people just saying fuck it and staying at the airport the rest of the week? I've heard some airports are struggling with rental cars because people are deciding to just drive.

>>53040850
to each his own

>>53040788
Your car works by igniting fuel in a container that harnesses that energy, basically. Electric cars use electricity, obviously. The steam for electric cars was already generated in the powerplant that the electricity came from. A nuclear powered car would generate electricity in house, using steam to push a turbine in the car itself. Its not feasible because the amount of water and steam you could generate in that small of a space would not generate enough electricity to power the car.

>>53040868
every single kiosk is a 4 hour long line to talk to some dummy who knows no more than anyone in line. they just give you meal and flight vouchers for free.
I was chatting with schizo boomers from across the country who were awake for over 24 hours at that point because of continuous and failing efforts to find any flight or rental car to anywhere near their destination. it was just a complete chaos fest.
we were redpilling people in line about 9/11, CBDCs, Obama legalizing propaganda on TV, feds infiltrating any and every group of redblood Americans, etc. shit was so cash, worth every minute I spent in line
also it would've been extremely easy to steal a bag there were just hundreds sitting about with no supervision. they could get you on the cameras I guess

>>53040809
I dont need to get into technicals because i dont need to to prove my point that nuclear powered cars can't work

>>53040788
A internal combustion engine, steam engine and electric motor all have way different and pretty rudimentary ways to creat torch.
>Engine burns gas expanding in a cylinder that drives a piston
>steam engine uses steam to push piston
>generators use copper lead and magnets spun by a force to generate electricity
>electric motor uses electricity to generate a force by magnets, copper and lead
Basically you need to be able to use the thermal heat and transfer it into torque somehow
I think the best way is to replicate a train steam engine which the reactor as the heat source and then scale down with R&D

>>53040910
See this is what I'm trying to get at. this is the future they stole from us

>return flight not cancelled
>now theyre saying the return flight is nonrefundable
so im out like $300-$400 for 0 miles of travel lmao

>>53040910
The problem with scaling down a nuclear reactor, other than the obvious technical difficulty, is that the electrical output would lessen exponentially to the point where a small enough reactor to fit in a car wouldn't generate enough electricity to even heat a kettle. It has to be big, or else it just isn't feasible.

>>53040902

>>53042661
>>53027198
It's not le hecking hax or bank debt. What's happening is the entire society has been undermined by so much fucking fraud that the young, capable people who can maintain the complex systems our society relies on to function are checking out completely. This has been accelerating since the WTCs fell. We're now at the point where thanks to a combination of the clot shot killing/maiming people and boomers retiring or early retiring due to pandemic bullshit, the system doesn't have the people it needs to upkeep it, so things begin to crumble, from the most complex systems down. Airline staffing and scheduling is at the top of the complexity tree.
>TL;DR - Jews and browns caused this.
Captcha: PAWGRR lul

>>53043710
I should add the young are either checking out completely, or passed over for opportunities to get into the positions where they would be maintaining the complex systems.

Why are glow niggers derailing this thread so hard? What's really going on with Southwest? Did cyberwarfare shut them down?

You have no idea what is going on. Every airline except Southwest is back on track. Meanwhile Southwest continues to go deeper and deeper behind schedule. The outdated systems that Southwest has been limping along with and upper management are to blame here. They created this fiasco by years of mismanagement and nickle and dime greed.

Biggest reason I hate boomers isn’t about how easy they had it, how they vote to fuck young people over to keep their ponzi’s going, or how out of touch they are. They are chomping at the bit to talk shit about and to young people every chance they get. Back when I ran a storage facility I had this one irate boomer tenant call because a lock got put on his unit after being late by 3 days for payment. Went on and on about how millennials don’t know what they’re doing and how incompetent they are. Nigger wouldn’t even listen when I told him I wasn’t even a millennial.

>>53051575
This story is already starting to be dropped in the news. Most stories out there glaze over the fact that Southwest is directly responsible for the cancellations still occurring. They just ramble on about how investigations will occur. Lots of subtle propaganda techniques and wordings occurring making the situation appear that no one knows what went wrong or who/what is to blame. Comes as no surprise shills are trying to blind side the conversation.

>>53040991
they're not real

>>53027422
its a symptom of collapse. Basically all the workers called in sick on/during/after Christmas. South west had no idea when and if they would come back to work, so they cancelled flights until they sorted it.
The reason it is a symptom of collapse is that they've largely replaced white men from the work force and now its filled to the brim with people who don't give a shit and happily get fired for immediate gratification.

>>53052346
What jobs have white men historically done in the airline industry besides pilot (obviously it’s the most important). Seems like it was always mostly just women

all I know is that Ukrainian women have crashed the escort market in Bucharest, literal peasant tier but cheap af and waaaaaay more dirty then the locals

>cause problems somewhere else
I definitely noticed the federal government doing a lot of useless fiscal spending. like way more than usual , and at a time when tax receipts will be pathetic and financing the deficit through bond issuance might actually run into problems.
What's the end game here?
Intentional collapse of the US?
Are Jews pivoting back east?

>>53056365
In my opinion, hyperinflation. We owe a fuckload of money and the easiest way to do that is inflate the fuck out of the currency, pay off the debt with worthless bills. Then throw a CBDC at your hapless citizens. It's why you're seeing billions of dollars funneled into Ukraine, or used to "revitalize" native american tribal languages. Probably why we see the government so quickly ready to have another problem to throw money at. Can't be too obvious what we're doing or we're going to tip off every country that we owe money too.

>>53056429
Right but the fiscal spending adds to the debt obligations. We need a Rothschild central bank to finance that debt, but none of them are doing it now. Unless you think they'll start buying all the US sovereign bonds by themselves and we get MMT?

The other end game could be a sovereign debt default, like Russia in 98 or Argentina lots of times. Then we get complete societal chaos and the Deagel 2025 population forecasts come true.

>like way more than usual
lmao yeah man totally un fucking usual. Kill yourself you happening faggot hows that red deer or whatever the fuck it is.
>>53056429
a fuck load of money is being funneled into Ukraine because Russian subhumans are invading a european country. If you show weakness towards garbage Russia the world will see it. Now russia is getting ass raped everyone can see just us sending the small amount we've sent so far can absolutely destroy russia shitheads no other third world is gonna wanna fuck with us.

>>53054232
The russians aren't doing any better, though the europeans are by far the most accelerating into suicide

Jesus christ, slavs are such stupid fucking goyim, falling for every chutzpah and taking the narrative at face value. No one gives a fuck about Ukraine.

Politicians are pumping money to themselves. Finland in NATO would change nothing. Stop thinking like a 19th century Slavic peasant. People in the west have severe Ukraine fatigue. It's NOT the current thing anymore, which makes it the perfect time to accelerate money laundering ops, a tactic used plenty of times throughout history when the ruling class tries to get there's before bailing. That's the point of this thread. We're at that level of societal collapse, globally, Russia included.

>>53056784
Sorry m8 that aint true they are pumping it into the Ukraine to win against Russia. That is what it is sure they might be making side money no doubt but it still remains geopolitically it would be extremely bad for the US to have Ukraine lose to a shithole like russia.You don't know shit about geopolitics

>>53056802
Geopolitical theater is almost as fake and gay as Democrat vs Republican. We're past the era of the nation state. Everything is globalist now. Half of Ukrainian farmland is already owned by Monsanto and other goyslop corporates thanks to the government sending all the land-owning men to get killed. Russia is still sending gas through Ukrainian pipelines to sell to Europe and gazprom is literally paying ukroenergo for gas transfer. How does this make any fucking sense, geopolitically? It doesn't.
The war is an excuse to kill off fighting age men AND a distraction to cover the financial collapse in the west.

>>53056940
None of what you say makes any sense at all. They also have valid reasons for opening more farmland has you know they want investors.

>>53057000
>investors
Seems rather that Monsanto wants the very profitable farmland, and they can buy it cheap now from a destroyed country that is giving away dead Ukrainians' land for free.
Not trying to demoralize but everything ITT is realistic observation. 20th century is over. It's not red team vs blue team any more. It's upper class getting the lower to kill each other. Slavs are always dumb enough to fall for it.

Fossil fuel companies are heavily investing into renewable, they have the capital to set themselves up in this sector quicker than anyone else. My friend works for a huge solar firm thats a subsidiary of Shell.

>>53027198
The truth is that they didn't have the fuel to meet demand. We are down to 20 days supply of diesel as well. But they have to use a cover story to prevent panic buying.

Jesus. Another night of retarded shill bullshit. Wtf is scaring (((them))) so much about this Southwest incident? Was this actually a cyber attack?
