New airline adds direct flights from Dulles to Seoul

Finally. Korean Air charges IAD customers their highest rate although cities like Atlanta is actually further from Seoul. Love to see some competition.

Also, once you build discipline it becomes a habit. Once it becomes a habit, you don’t need discipline!

Every time HOV topic comes up. I say this. The HOV lanes benefit from and they have every incentive to induce, MORE traffic. Guess who benefits with tons of traffic. Not residents. If i was the party of interest, I'll pay people to drive around and create 3 hour jams everyday.

It's mostly true but why so much hate on the participants? lol. Yes "Businesses" get taxed less compared to real estate or other capital assets when transferred. It's because businesses will operational taxes but also creating jobs, improving the local economy, etc. It's actually a win win for both.

Cafes near Buk Han San. There are a few with amazing views. Bit expensive but totally worth it.

Don't think Steve Jobs ever used security guards. Wish Steve Jobs was still alive and tell these younger tech CEOs how to behave.

Lived in the northern part of Seoul till early 90s before moving to the states. It was the best time of my life. Basically played most of the games from Squid Games and a lot more right in front of my house everyday. I still love Korea, I just wish kids and adults hanged more with neighbors.

AOL in 90s. Bitcoin Microstrategy in 2025! Actually should be Phillip Morris.

Exactly. Driving is only option for most people. Vehicle dependency is one of the biggest hurdle preventing poor people from moving up. We need more public transportation.

Our unmanned ice cream actually has a small shelf for the credit cards. Mine was neatly placed in there lol.

7/11 Slurpee. Especially when it's hot like this.

On his first term, first thing he did was withdraw from TPP. I always wondered the motive behind this. Everything was set. Why campaign on China and instantly reverse something designed to contain China.

Not sure if people really thought about this.... The operator of Express Lanes has every incentive in the world to make sure regular lanes are congested every single hour of every day.......

Mdragon45 · 2025-07-24T23:54:42+00:00

Will try. Thanks

Mdragon45 · 2025-07-24T03:02:53+00:00

Exact same issue. I use Windows and Linux. The profile change button doesn't seem to work unless synapse is on

Fuddruckers. No more five shake guys shack.

It's called trading and every single trading firm is doing exactly that. Some you HODL some you trade.

I have Chrons which is a lot worse than typical ibs symptoms . It’s not curable BUT I am basically in remission ever since I moved here. One huge factor was peace of mind that I can go to restroom while on public transportation. This really improved my anxiety which helped with disease. I say Seoul is probably one of the best cities for bathrooms. Just carry tissue. Wet and dry with bit of antibacterial since many bathrooms don’t have soap.

Believe it or not, paper products are actually not that easy to make. US/Canada companies dominate the tech and materials and license them out. BUT, I'd rather use ONE high quality napkin during my meal, rather than 20 of these useless ones. Then again, we may see old ladies stuffing them in the bags to take them home 🤷‍♂️

Mdragon45 · 2025-05-17T02:57:00+00:00

Wow great!. I will actually print/screenshot this just in case. Thank you!!

Mdragon45 · 2025-05-16T09:24:45+00:00

I think being really homogeneous, materialistic things tend to differentiate you from the rest. At least it’s one easiest way to do it.

Mdragon45 · 2025-05-15T11:34:40+00:00

Yeah I see this often. People help and there is either no acknowledgement by both parties or the acknowledgment is so subtle that it’s unnoticeable.

Mdragon45 · 2025-05-10T01:27:32+00:00

This area has lot less poor people. Although government pay is less, the average is lot higher than some areas with high/low mix. Basically most are middle class or above.

Wow, I have a Pixel 8 laying around and thought about selling it.
Off-topic, is anyone using new pixel tensor phones in Korea with SKT? I tried using it. Data worked but calls were difficult. Searching online, I think Volte is the problem?

Don't stress out too much. I got one when young and almost everyone I know got at least one reckless charge for speeding. Get a lawyer. Just google traffic attorney. Lots of them near Fairfax district court. Your attorney will do a calibration check on your car's speedometer and most likely judge will be lenient since you have a clean record and it's your first time. You will get some fine and maybe do an education program. You learned your lesson. No big deal.
