- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 4 days ago:
F0r what it’s worth: this was apparently a concept created by an airline seat company called Aviointeriors who showed the idea off at trade shows in 2010 (as the “SkyRider”) and 2018 (as the SkyRider 2.0 pictured here.) Pretty much all the news articles about it are about Aviointeriors claiming vague unsorced “plans” for them to be adopted by some future echoing Aviointeriors’ own PR releases, but the articles mostly end up being about the intense public backlash to the idea. No airlines have announced any plans to buy and use these seats, not even those lunatics at RyanAir, and in the years since all SkyRider mentions have been quietly removed from Aviointeriors’ own site.

I was once really excited to meet a forum friend on whom I’d been crushing on a little as we were going to attend the same event, and she brought along a forum newbie who lived near her and who I didn’t really know all that well.
It turned out my crush and I had just platonically friendly vibes in person, but her friend and I had an immediate major connection and ended up dating seriously for a year.
