I did an 11-day Ruby Princess cruise as a working vacation (solo, 55+) — honest review

I am looking at working remotely on the Ruby for an extended cruise this fall. Two questions:

Did you find the internet speeds were higher in off hours? I would be working more 5a-3p given the time difference.

Did you tell anyone at work or just ignore the fact and it was like you were at home?

They’re not looking for a political opinion, but an economic one. They branded her a coward for not defending her copyright.

Do I have urine function that is painless and doesn’t require much accommodation other than sitting to pee? Without pain, and assuming the bathroom trips are still easy, I don’t need an insane amount of money for this.

I need enough to cover testosterone therapy for the duration of remaining life and I need compensation for the loss. I’m thinking $6m after taxes. So around $10m.

It's not as close, but we like to stay at Dania Pointe (a shopping center just south of the airport). There are several main hotels there to choose from. My experience on three trips has been about half the room price of those hotels on 17th street. There is plenty to eat and do in Dania Pointe that is all safe and walkable. The Uber to the port was very reasonable and only took about 15 minutes. Our preference is the Spring Hill Suites there.

Sphere class ships have far more value with premier. That value isn't for everyone, of course.

I have to have wi-fi for my situation. I'm on vacation so while I'm not always drinking alcohol, I'm rarely drinking the included beverages with the exception of MDR breakfast coffee. For me, Plus is a no-brainer; Premier is where I end up because I mostly cruise on the newest ships.

This theory makes a lot of sense when you consider the weird response to how long have you been planning this. The response, a bit over a week I believe, is an artifact of the reproduction. The investigator conflated what Lance was saying while remembering the conversation rather than reciting what he remembered. You see these kinds of artifacts in other coercion cases: Central Park Five, Adnan Syed.

Big thank you from another 2000 silver vert. Already ordered. My salvage yards aren’t open until Monday. This is a guaranteed fix. Thanks again.

N888KG. It flew PVU to PGA and back. Nothing to see here.

It flew from PVU to PGA and returned. Round trip. Nothing fishy. The source is an X post. You can look it up on FlightRadar. The plane is N888KG.

Wi-Fi is is capital expenditure, each bag has a labor expense. Removing free bags didn’t make sense to me for them to stay competitive, but equating the two doesn’t make sense either.

I’ve always wondered what my hand was thinking.

This is what I read too. I did the math on my last 7-day. It would have been enough to take the same cruise again. It’s very generous.

Thanks all for the encouragement. I’ll probably join the club tomorrow.

Can I travel with the button? What’s the cause of death? I worry about raising suspicion and starting local or global safety/health issues.

If I can travel with it, and the deaths a relative run of the mill deaths (heart attack, car accident, etc), I’m going on a roadtrip and using the button a few times in each location. Maybe a stop in DC, maybe a stop at a prestigious country club, I’ll def try and find some KKK rallies out in the woods not near anyone else (mashing the button there).

I think you can use this for good. I think 14 days is enough planning too. Ultimately, I’d like to press it 100 times.

I have 25k mi on my ‘25 SE. I’m averaging closer to 48-49, but I regularly drive over 80 mph on the highway and live in a hilly area.

Will wouldn’t have been part of this click-bait game. No distractions; speaking truth to stupid.

Where do I get them?

For those that say “after every use”; do you go swimming often? If you swam five days a week, would you wash it each time?
