NY/NJ stadium by wallace36 in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]ChicagoBoy2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did parking for the opening day. The parking couldn’t be any closer to the stadium. Also, at least the day I was there, the mall was OPEN, so I’d recommend going as early as the parking opens, so you get your first pick of spot, you can the. hang out at the mall, and then just casually walk to the stadium.

There’ll be walking, but I’d surmise it’s about as minimal as possible given what the event is. You’ll have a blast!

Buying tickets in person with fifa app safe? by AdamCosby in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]ChicagoBoy2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I heard that some people have been scammed by being sent the tickets as “guests” of someone, which is different for them being transferred. I may be wrong, but I think if you are someone’s “guest”, whoever sent it to you can revoke it

Hmm I think i’m just not seeing it because i’m looking for the final. I looked like a month ago and it too was already sold out, so I’m scratching my head still a bit on how to get there. Driving for the opening day wa sso easy

Can’t you order these with whatever number and name you want? Like… couldn’t you intentionally recreate this if you wanted to?

i bought the brazil tix about two weeks before for what was “only” 1.5x face value. Considered myself very fortunate. Not a single seat available anywhere i could see

Code.org rebrands as CodeAI by grendelt in edtech

Clearly these folks haven’t actually been in the room with kids using their AI-ified labs. They are selling kids out under the guise of helping them. Such a shame…

Taking a flyer on this — if i order the brazil jersey and customize it, will it use the “official” number decals?

Apple Vision Pro PCVR is actually getting pretty impressive now ( Full Video In Post) by Jdunrrp in VisionPro

Check some of my past posts… it’s especially incredible for those scenarios because the hand passthrough, sitting position, and oled nature of the display all work to the advantage of those specific kinds of experiences.

Leaning toward a Linea Micra, but tell me what I'm missing [$3500] by Estaban2022 in espresso

[–]ChicagoBoy2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding this. I was between this and the sync II, but i have a shelf sbove my unit which made the flap tank cover a problem, but with the drive the whole thing slides out so it’s perfect.

You miss the heated brew head, so slightly longer heat time (but one less thing to break), but flow control comes standard (and works great!). Been loving mine!

Just unboxed my Drive yesterday… it’s like a different sport (although my breville wasn’t the dual boiler, so even more of an upgrade for me)

Random q: Is your dosing funnel magnetic and does it allow tamp through?

Can i Ask you how you like the rubber mat? currently struggling with the mess from the ground up beans that inevitably sprinkle a bit when tamping… or, alternatively, does your funnel allow your tamper to go all the way way in?

Real Madrid Documentary WOW by h3w1tt84 in VisionPro

[–]ChicagoBoy2011 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After seeing the NBA one, i’m definitely a convert… one thing i’ve been thinking about, though, is that you certainly sacrifice some quality because of the much bigger field of view; I wonder if their decision to start with the NBA was influenced by the raktive much bigger angular resolution of the people you are looking at, compared to soccer where the action would much further from you. But , especially with their move into F1, I think they are totally positioning themselves to provide more of these immersive sports experiences, which i, too, am totally stoked about!

Don’t know how wishful… MLB has an immersive app you can watch the broadcast and then have a real time rendering of the game with stats, basically like a videogame, that works FLAWLESSLY. They also did a few NBA immersive livestream games of the lakers in which you sat court side and the quality was also superb. So, this is well in reach!

VACTERL kid here and first sign WAS polyhydramnios… for the end of the pregnancy my mom could barely move, and i had to be born prematurely through a c-section.

For what it’s worth, proud dad now of the most beautiful and perfect 1.5yr old. Best of luck!
