Yes, if you allow for minor factors.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I'd have offered some sanguine remarks in the same vein . . . but you've a clot of other comments, already.

Yes but if you just B positive there is still a chance it can happen.

"But after the collapse, it said: "We are testing a brand new type of aircraft and incidents of this nature can occur during this phase of development." "
Hmmm...I kind of think that testing of most airplanes and other vehicles do not run into failures while they are parked.

"the aircraft appeared to have broken its moorings, triggering a safety system which deflates it."
"Thrown about by the wind,"
So it actually did what it was supposed to do, deflate when the wind rips it off its moorings.

Project is backed in part by Bruce Dickinson, don't see any indication that he left the company.
Fortunately for the world of music, he is a better airplane pilot.

Dear Mr. Firefox,
thanks to Mickeysoft I am not much of a fan of being terrorized until I finally say yes to an update. I am also not a fan of reading your propaganda about what great features we now have. ANd your mickeysoftish way of moving around or crippling those features I did care about is also annoying.
The only reason that I did not uninstall the browser immediately is that most alternatives are from Google, Apple or 'I also wannabe like Google and Apple' Mickeysoft.
The chicken is not amused[^]

Not so important, but it does on my freshly (and involuntarily) updated Firefox.

Have you tried the Vivaldi browser? (From the Opera team). Dunno yet if I like it but it looks promising.

... that my printer talks to me!
I'm printing a birthday card for a friend, and in "best photo" quality on "matt paper" it sits there printing and repeating, over and over:
Calm down.
Calm down.
Calm down.
...
Clearly it realises it should have taken the 255gsm card not the 100gsm paper behind it.
Every now and then it slows, and goes "calm...down...calm....down..." 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

For a wallpaper[^]
The first time I saw this on a notebook in Ebay, I literally cursed the seller for selling a notebook for such a high price, even when the screen is TOTALLY DAMAGED. 
Can't the MS folks pick one good, worthy poster from the million good "Webshots"? Hope you remember that popular, cool wallpaper-app of the 2000s.

That wallpaper is one that lets you arrange your icons on the darker areas in the image thus making them far more visible.

Pics of intergalactic space interspersed with a few gravity lensed galaxies is good for that too.

I would agree.
