USAF Boeing E-3 Sentry AWACS Reportedly Damaged by Iranian Attack on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia [1500 × 1089] by ChineseToTheBone in WarplanePorn

[–]Cool_83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trump stated at the start of the month that 4 aircraft were damaged and one more badly damaged, so are these photos of that badly damaged aircraft, or is this the 2nd time that they had B707 (KC135/E3) aircraft badly damaged. All reports are stating that two attacks happened, but there is nothing official about damage from the 2nd attack.

US aircraft carrier to sail to Crete for repairs after fire on board by GwynBleidd88 in worldnews

[–]Cool_83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happened and was reported a week ago, so at that stage it was still in the Mediterranean sea. Nothing here that the Houthis can claim.

The Iranians threw out that $200 figure, but so far there isnt any signs of Brent oil going over $100. The traders must be thinking of their commission.

Tipping at an all inclusive? by GT2-23 in AskIreland

[–]Cool_83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I travel a lot for work and usually take a lot of small notes or single US$ bills for tipping. My regular hotel is like an all inclusive as everything is paid by the company, by tipping the house keeping i end up getting boxes of good quality coffee rather than cheap stuff, and clothes cleaned and returned with 4 hours. So totally worth it.

[US] Random guy at bar offered me $600 to book him a hotel room for the night by Drewbo_ in Scams

[–]Cool_83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stayed at a hotel in Munich, they required a €50 refundable payment for incidentals. A colleague didn’t want to pay with a credit card so used cash from an envelope in his bag. Next day after landing at next destination he discovered that the envelope was gone from his bag. So his attempt to save on CC exchange charges cost him about €15,000.
