That is all true. I'd still prefer it to an unarmored donkey
Yes. Czech is ridiculous, How about "Kupujte v Evrope" / "Nakupujte v Evrope" - that literally means "Buy in Europe" not "Buy European products", yet Its short I believe has pretty much the same meaning.
That is a famous superstition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8wZbNmdIKw
To be fair: I didn't know either, until I had a long discussion on the topic with my colleagues wife - who is an Italian.
"Al dente" essentially means "cook your pasta as long as you like"
Doesn't it say:
Although the fabricated passport likely would not withstand scrutiny due to the absence of an embedded chip, it proved sufficient to bypass the most basic KYC procedures employed by some fintech services.
From what i gather about these "Know Your Customer" systems, they take the photo of your ID, check if it is realistic enough and then check the picture on your ID (bad as it is) against your authentic photo made through the app. Verification against 3rd party API confirming existence of such ID while welcome / preferred seems to be optional (doesn't work for all IDs - there may be technical/ legal barriers).
So the vulnerability has probably always been there, still is (?!?), for a sweet moment in time it was just more easy to exploit?

They are operating exclusively Boeing 737 variants ( afaik 600+ planes) to save money by symplifying maintenance and pilot training. Adding another new completely different plane into the mix (one noone outside china knows how to maintain or fly) would add lots of costly complexity and overhead they can do without. They would have to fully switch only to single COMAC plane variant for all future purchases to make it make sense and imo they are nowhere near beaing ready fot that kind of commitment.
