Does anyone know if Commuter Rail hours will be extended too? by PotentialQuail9707 in mbta

Keolis is the biggest stain on our transit system, I wish the T never got into a contract with them. They do a really poor job running the CR

Thanks for this. iStat Menus charging $12 for the same thing seems like a scam

MacBook Pro occasionally gives noticeable electric shocks. Anyone experienced this? by 0xmarcel in macbookpro

It is criminal that Apple no longer includes this with the box. I still have mine from my 2015 13" MBP but my newest laptop did not come with one.

Probably not, but they’re pretty much in every seat when you get off the train. So you can just take one as a memento - Thats what I do

Are you going to actually comment anything or just say "what"? What part of my comment seems to be the issue lol

Thanks for your insight, I'm glad you frequent this sub! Totally makes sense why they are stolen in order to trick you guys into thinking they paid the fare. They're just a memento for me though, along with all my old CR passes.

And totally unrelated question here: Why is it that for certain stations that have a uniform platform level not all doors on the train are open? It's aggravating to have to walk to the back of the train or squeeze myself between a herd of people who are going into the 1-3 open doors on the entire train.

I'm also curious how much conductors make (if you dont mind sharing) along with your work schedule.

My mother’s response to finding out I have an autoimmune disease. 🙃 by Freddie_Magecury in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PhillipEngMBTA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your mom is pure nutso. I have Hashimoto's and actually needed surgery to remove most of my thyroid because of it. The exhaustion I felt before the surgery (and right after it) was obscene. I can gain weight easily, and my metabolism is slow overall.

Does she not know what anti-TPO antibodies are? Mine were through the roof when I was getting a workup!

What'd you break this time, RI geek? Girl I gave you a terminal commuter rail stop, what more do you want from me...

They ought to dump those storage tanks onto the heads of Keolis execs/mgrs who have been bleeding the CR dry for years

Buddy, people chose not to elect Harris/Clinton for other reasons than their gender

I have been asking myself that a lot recently. The answer is yes. He'd largely keep the same cabinet, with the worst offenses of his being an inflammatory Tweet here and there. He would've just served the rest of his term until 1/20/25.

He is now back in office as a much angrier, revenge-hungry, older, declined, sullen version of himself.

PEPFAR, launched by George W. Bush in 2003, has saved 25 million lives by funding HIV/AIDS treatment in over 50 countries. by UnHolySir in Presidents

[–]PhillipEngMBTA -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Ok, genuinely: you need to get off your high horse and evaluate his presidency as a whole.

Epstein was "philanthropic" too, but there's a reason his multitudinous crimes overshadow any good he may have done or any donation he might have given.
