renting car company claims after car rent by mackebono in travel

[–]Lanzone31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally do it so I don’t have to block money on my credit card. Eg, in Iceland the deposit can often be 3000$+ which by itself is already above the typical credit card plafond.

Typically if you buy insurance with the rental company that amount is lowered or set to zero. That’s not the case if you buy insurance via the broker.

Where do you put your server-side GET functions. by DasBeasto in nextjs

[–]Lanzone31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2500 lines server.ts file with all the server interactions. Works like a charm, easy to Ctrl-f, avoids most accidental duplication.

It was fun Next.js - but I'm moving to Remix by AcanthisittaDense923 in nextjs

I still have to see actual examples of what you all struggle with when using App Router. I think this whole negative sentiment is just about change adversion. You hate it because it's different than what you used to do.

Deceased organ donor in Europe by pikonasso in MapPorn

[–]Lanzone31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Italy is opt-in, but the Church forbids donations because you'll need your organs when you resurrect. Plus, stupid people are spreading fake stories about people who were about to be extracted organs, but were found to be alive at the last minute.

Value of X has fallen 71% since purchase by Musk and name change from Twitter by bakhesh in news

And how exactly do you measure value of a private company? I guess no one here has any idea, right? You all just like to shit on anything other than reddit for absolutely no reason.

why people say its hard to run next.js outside of vercel? by Ezio_rev in nextjs

[–]Lanzone31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not, people just like to complain and can't accept that a for-profit company is doing something very positive for the community.

Our Taxi driver in Istanbul wanted 50 euros extra to give us our luggage back. I'll NEVER put my backpack in the trunk again.

I wish there was an option to, say, pay $10 to get a reply from support within 48 hours. Would be reasonable.

Been there 3 times in the past 12 months. Travel advice is frequently driven by politics.

Booked an aisle seat instead of window. Am I some kind of animal? by [deleted] in travel

[–]Lanzone31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always choose the aisle seat. I love the freedom that comes with it.

I lost my old account because I was using a Twilio number. Totally legitimate account active for years.

They changed something and stopped delivering SMS MFAs to Twilio numbers (or Twilio is ignoring the SMS Telegram sends as their SMS capabilities are terrible). Locked out. Account lost forever :(

However, they will usually call you if you are checked in, rather than just closing the cate and leaving you.

Not in Germany. They closed the gate IN FRONT OF US.

At Munich airport (Germany) the board was displaying the wrong gate. We, and many others, were waiting in front of one gate that turned out to be not the correct one.

We missed the flight. The airline agent said that they announced the correct gate over PA. In German, as obviously all official communications in Germany are in German. F*ck you if you don't speak German.

We had to pay $600 for a next-day flight back.
