What's this shaking sound recorded from the flydubai plane?

I was trying to look for videos of the flydubai incident (the one from earlier today), and I found this one that seems to be from the descent: https://x.com/CombatASemitism/status/2105232653041500468

At 0:21~0:22, you'll notice that the plane shakes pretty erratically, and you can hear it pretty distinctly as well.

I'm wondering what that was since I've actually experienced something like that before, and this is the only recording I have ever seen of that sound, even extreme turbulence videos don't have anything like that.>!(My flight was taking off from Madeira during intense wind shear, and got hit with an updraft right as it was doing a pretty hard bank to the left, though I don't remember any shaking - I remember that when I checked ADSB data a few days later, it showed something like 4500-7500 fpm or so briefly)!<

The VR2 is one of the steepest expressways in the world, with a climb rate of 160 meters (or 524 feet) per minute. Are there any other roads like this?

The main tunnel has a 80 km/h (50 mph) speed limit, and a grade of 12%. I haven't been able to find any other expressways - or even roads for that matter - with that steep of a climb rate.

(The ER117 nearby also has a 16% slope, but it's limited to 50 km/h, so the climb rate isn't as steep even though it's still a highway. I still managed to descend 570 meters of altitude in 4 minutes and 40 seconds though.)

Demora 1/4 do tempo encomendar algo dos EUA para a Madeira do que encomendar a partir de Espanha. Já nem sei o que dizer.

(P.S. - Estou a usar a Amazon US como referência aqui porque é uma das opções mais rápidas para encomendar coisas para a Madeira. A maioria das lojas que usam os CTT demoram muito mais tempo do que isto, até por via aérea dentro do país.)

Com a exceção das raras lojas que usam os EMS19 (PCDiga), eu nem sequer consigo encontrar uma única loja portuguesa com tempos de entrega mais rápidos.

Os CTT são tão vergonhosos na Madeira que compensa mais mandar vir de outro continente do que a partir da Península Ibérica. (E a estimativa de 28 dias que a Amazon dá até é generosa, já ouvi de pessoas à espera da sua encomenda por 30 ou 40 dias!)

O mesmo artigo encomendado para o Porto ou Lisboa chegaria amanhã. Para o resto de Portugal continental, garantidamente chegaria em menos do que uma semana. Já tive encomendas a fazerem nada nos armazéns da CTT na Madeira por mais tempo do que isso.

Did you know: In order to play the role of an insane and mentally depressed person in the movie "Joker", Joaquin Phoenix had to order something to Madeira

A opção mais rápida de shipping é mandar vir da Amazon nos Estados Unidos porque demora 6-8 dias em vez de 20-40 dias da Espanha. Incrível

Oh hey our grade distribution is naturally curved

(Data has been anonymized so it doesn't break rule 7. Grades were manually converted to GPA, the actual grade distribution is a bell curve centered somewhere around 55%, excluding people who failed for other reasons.)

Optane and zswap is absolutely INSANE, my system is only barely lagging??

According to cat /proc/pressure/memory, it's only at about 20% memory pressure or so.

Taken while running a 20 GB stress test, going through a video timeline on kdenlive, having 100 tabs open on Google Earth (hence the high committed RAM), playing a video, having Discord open, and playing Cyberpunk 2077 at the same time

I can't believe Intel discontinued these

I don't know if I won or lost the silicon lottery (Samsung Q-Die DDR5)

As far as I can tell it's totally fine as long as you keep the timings high (CL = frequency/140)

Are these voltages okay? (I'm aware the CL could definitely be lower, I just want to make sure this looks good)

For some reason I haven't been able to go past 6000 MT/s without experiencing pretty severe instability (at either 1:1 or 2:1), but I'm pretty new to overclocking so there's probably something I'm doing wrong

This is a Hynix A-Die kit iirc, but it's a SODIMM so it's probably not that great
