and a wonky screenI don't know what I'm supposed to disbelieve. I see some industrial-looking control panels; a '90s-era version with dependable physical pushbuttons and what I presume is the replacement which brings all the benefits and problems of a touchscreen instead.
Maybe the youngsters are supposed to disbelieve the new panel still has an antique telephone handset in its cradle on the right.

Justice Department announces indictment against Southern Poverty Law Center ("SPLC"). Our indictment alleges SPLC secretly funneled MORE THAN $3 MILLION in funds to members of white supremacist and extremist groups.
He thinks turning up for work twice wthout being sent home for being too sozzled to work is a record twice as good as his predecessors.Unless FBI directors have a really amazing leave policy being on leave for fewer days than your predecessors is unlikely to result in you working twice as many days as them. But this reinforces my belief that they have no numerical sense.
And also disbelieve the shoddy workmanship in putting it together. I wouldn't trust the thing on the right half as far as I coupd throw it, it looks ready to fall apart if you sneeze on it.I don't know what I'm supposed to disbelieve.

Yep. Wonky screen as Andy noted and various blank panels. It looks like a prototype in an off-the-shelf console box instead of a finished product like those standard 19" rackmount devices on the left.And also disbelieve the shoddy workmanship in putting it together. I wouldn't trust the thing on the right half as far as I coupd throw it, it looks ready to fall apart if you sneeze on it.
I would go further. It increases the mental workload.It looks tidy but it doesn't reduce the mental workload when you are doing something time-critical. The "crystal clear digital" puffery is just a joke. You can make comms equipment either brilliant or barely intelligible just as easily in the digital domain as you can in analogue.

There's a reason why safety certifying bodies in Europe at least are pushing back on touchscreen controls.
Yeah, I suspect the large console on the right does the same job as just one of the three 2U panels on the left.Also showing a rack of equipment to make it look bigger and more complicated.
That's great; just in time for the fuel crisis!The White House

They are carrying on big time in public about the ginned-up SPLC law-suit thing like it has actually been proven true. So what are they going to say when it is all dismissed as baseless lies?
SPLC bribed the southern states to start the civil war. It was all a set-up.They are carrying on big time in public about the ginned-up SPLC law-suit thing like it has actually been proven true. So what are they going to say when it is all dismissed as baseless lies?
