"oh no, the airplane is falling apart! is there an engineer on board?"
yes, me, hi hello, I'm an engineer :3
"oh, thank the heavens, can you save us?"
did you try adding Rust to the engines?
"how would that help-"
we're headed to Wayland, right? that's the goal?
"what? there aren't even any airports there, this flight is headed to PDX"
can we check the flight logs to root cause the issue?
"dude the engine is on fucking fire"
oh that's okay. it's noncritical because of the backup engines so i usually just ignore it because it's only really a mild inconvenience and it takes longer to fix than it's worth. xkcd 1205
"the whole thing is going to blow up and kill us all if we don't put out that fire"
just sandbox it tbh. put it in FireJail. that way it won't hurt the whole system even if it totally blows up and crashes
"what do you mean . what the fuck even is that?"

oh we're already using FOSS in critical flight systems? that makes sense. okay yeah I get how we ended up in this situation.
