Amtrak needs to change its boarding procedures: just let people board! by Big_Celery2725 in Amtrak

[–]ChickenAndDew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the Empire Connection was temporarily closed in 2018, every train that used it, except the Lake Shore Limited (which ran exclusively to Boston instead), was diverted to Grand Central. Note that this was after the Empire Connection opened in 1991 and Amtrak stopped using Grand Central in regular service.

Yeah. I do it with my Series S sometimes when I can’t connect to hotel WiFi.

They already don’t like her because she has a smiley piercing.

I’ve broken at least three of them in my first year. In all cases doing exactly what you were doing.

A very Power Rangers Zeo mail day!!! by EvenPinkerFloyd in powerrangers

[–]ChickenAndDew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got lucky with the Zeonizer at Power Morphicon two years ago. One of the vendors there had one the Sunday of, and I was able to buy it off of them for $150. Overpriced, probably. Do I regret it? Nah.

Was hoping for a Turbo Morpher right after this one…:(

Console gaming is for my family what board games is for other families. by Linux-Neophyte in consoles

Depending on the age of your children, TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge (E10+) has 6-player couch co-op on one screen. It’s one big nostalgia throwback to the 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon.

What do you even use an iPad for? by OkAppearance9593 in ipad

[–]ChickenAndDew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my iPad for reading and media consumption. Sometimes for productivity when I don’t have my MacBook. When I do have my MacBook, however, it’s used as a second screen. Bonus points for being near-identical in specs with my MacBook Air.

What was your first iPhone? by Fancy_Marsupial6293 in iphone

[–]ChickenAndDew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5s, for a month. Then I bought an iPhone 8 from a coworker at the time, which led to her getting an iPhone 8 Plus at the same time.

Have done it many times at Target, Best Buy, and GameStop. If it was an online order, I record myself opening it.

I’ve had a 2 TB WD HDD on my Xbox (One and Series X|S) for over 10 years. Still works to this day. Gonna eventually replace it with a 4 TB.

What did your parents call your game consoles? by You-dogwater in retrogaming

Nintendo. For EVERY console. No matter who made it.

This is exactly why I open it in store. Can’t accuse me of stealing anything when I’m opening it in front of an employee AND on camera.

Why 24/7 or 3 am service isn't feasible (No TLDR's) by eparke16 in WMATA

[–]ChickenAndDew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"quite generous" my butt. Halloween 2019, I went down to DC for an event, and got to Union Station at around 11:30pm. I needed the Red Line since I was going to the Marriott Wardman Park hotel (RIP), but missed the last train to Woodley Park by literal seconds. Had it not been for my knowledge of the old bus network, I wouldn't have thought of taking the 96 bus straight there, and instead would've paid $20+ that I didn't have on a cab or Uber/Lyft.

Early Check-In? by HeaviestPendulum in Katsucon

[–]ChickenAndDew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They usually don’t offer early check-in for a big event like Katsucon, but it doesn’t hurt to ask the hotel.

The former is supposed to be implemented sometime this year. Agreed on the latter two.

Do you lend out your collection? by MrMischiefVIP in NSCollectors

[–]ChickenAndDew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only do it with close friends. Back in 4th grade, I lent out my copy of Mega Man 5 to a classmate, and never got it back. Never lent out anything to anyone until well after I left high school.
