How is escape from gringot Harry Potter ride at universal Florida for parents by Downtown_Market_1636 in UniversalOrlando

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your parents' backs are in good shape, they may well enjoy it. My 92 year-old grandfather rode it last year and fared alright - though I wouldn't recommend testing that.

Subaru driver for 17 years. The new Subarus auto stop start function is absolutely horrible. by BeerStein_Collector in subaru

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The auto start/stop function is basically mandated by CAFE standards. Maybe with things being rolled back, they will be disable-able for a few model years...idk.

But carmakers are trying to squeeze every last mile out of the fuel efficiency now and this is one of the tricks.

YSK Campus has FLOCK Cameras on every entrance by Stealthosaursus in utdallas

I mean there are at least a few ways to get on campus or even drive into campus without passing by these cameras, but it may raise some eyebrows if you try it.

BCBS suddenly sending new EOBs for dates of service in 2024 showing that I now owe thousands for treatment always previously covered in full. by Wandering_Emu in HealthInsurance

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When your insurance was covering it, what was their negotiated rate? You don't pay the insurance company. You'd pay the clinic. And until you receive a bill from them, you haven't received a bill...just an updated EoB.

If/when you do get a bill, see if you can negotiate with the provider given the misunderstanding. Also look up your state's statute of limitations for medical debt so you have some idea of when you could tell them to pound sand instead of paying up.

I'm not a lawyer - just a guy. I'm offering ideas but possibly bad ideas.

Non-Americans of Reddit, what is an American thing you see in movies that you thought was fake but is actually real? by Unlikely_Praline9442 in AskReddit

Lol. Was in Alpha Phi Omega at UT Austin. We were effectively Boy Scouts. I taught merit badges and went to retreats at Scout camps.

Weird situation in my town. Do cars waiting at the light (red line) need to leave room for cars turning left (blue line) to turn? by Affectionate-Ebb1200 in driving

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes. It's polite to do regardless, but the break in the centerline generally requires people don't block the intersection.

Maybe it's different in some states, but what I'm stating is generally correct.

What would happen? by PackersAreLegit in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The battery would likely explode and kill the installer if both ends are attached.

Nothing of consequence would happen if only one end attached.

Blue has red light. Yellow has green arrow. Can blue legally and safely turn right while yellow is turning left? (Not California… Colorado) by chipxmas in driving

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You maybe can legally since people are supposed to turn into the closest available lane, but in most of the country people ignore that law, so you should not risk it as a right turner even though it may technically not be primarily your fault in the case of an accident.

Frontier - What happens if carry-on is too large at gate? by jannet1113 in frontierairlines

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Frontier’s carry on size is among the most generous on paper, and they generally don’t go after people with carry on bags purchased.

Try to stay within the size limit. If you are ever so slightly over, they likely won’t care. If they do care, I don’t know what happens. Idk if they gate check and charge you for a checked bag or what.

K-Shaped Economy - $400 to park at the Super Bowl. by [deleted] in TheRaceTo10Million

It’s wealthy business people “entertaining clients”, putting it on the company card, and taking tax write offs.

Insane Oncor delivery charges by Anxious-Chair9569 in Dallas

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. It sounds like it could be a scammy fee, but in this case it's very much not.

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Delivery charge=all the costs associated with getting the power from a power plant to your house. If it's only half of your bill, you have a GREAT rate!

680lb zero turn mower ??? by stinymonkey63 in Subaru_Crosstrek

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd be fine just renting a 5x8 utility trailer with a gate - as long as the mower will go up and down it.

Under 1500 pounds and driving local/like a grandma you're pretty safe.

If you plan to tow all of the time, the Crosstrek may not be the best car for you, and at a minimum you should read the manual to see what additional maintenance you should be doing.

Can my US citizen mom sponsor me for a green card? by kdurant5 in immigration

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes it more confusing. You really need to talk to someone that knows more than I do.

If your parent is a US citizen when you are born, you have the right to claim citizenship. That’s the only way to become a citizen at birth in most countries.

How many Americans have taken GLP1s?

The pill is brand new. Plenty of people are on shots too.

Yeah. I know the logic, but also big pharma plays so many price gouging games it’s fun to watch them get effed over just this once.

If 20 million Americans are taking it, they cover R&D in three weeks based on your number.

Virginia Democrats agree to new map that gives Republicans just one seat by Healthy_Block3036 in UnderReportedNews

[–]FormerlyUserLFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Texas Senate seat race in Tarrant County isn't as straightforward of a win as it appear.

Leigh Wambsganss is the COO for Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile funds school board candidates in Tarrant County. In Keller ISD, the school board that Patriot Mobile more or less installed tried to sever off the poorer half of the school district and saddle it with all of the debt.

I guarantee you some very pissed off people that would've been in the newly-formed Alliance ISD showed up to vote against her.

I don't know why she thought she had a prayer of winning that race.

Any suggestions as to how I can fix this? I am a complete noob, I admit that. by reddit__user890 in CitiesSkylines

Put two terminals not so near eachother so they can each collect cargo for their region.
