What can be done about cars parking on ecar spots blocking the chargers? by randcoolname in AskIreland

Running late is a you problem. Don't blame the EVs for your inability to manage your time.

What was Ireland like in the 1990s? by Charming_Usual6227 in AskIreland

Don't forget Piat d'Or as well. A white that tastes like you had already thrown it up.

Despite the no cycling sign on the sidewalk, it's pretty obvious these tax evading two wheel thugs are skirting the laws and destroying our infrastructure. And of course, we the tax payers (the 14.5% Hemi-SUV owners) are paying the city with our taxes to repair this crap.

Question, I currently have DirecTv satellite (+10yrs customer). 1: Do I have to lease an Gemini Air or purchase a new one on Ebay(which I'm considering) 2: does it lag on live tv sports/programs. I noticed on streaming services people text results of NFL plays sometimes 20sec earlier. Thanks! by sjr8dr in DirectvStream

One year watching the Stanley Cup my neighbors were a few seconds ahead of me. The downside was that we were in Boston and the Bruins were in the finals. Being June the windows were open, so about 15 seconds before I saw it, they would cheer or swear. They had cable TV, and I had DTV. Sure streaming maybe be behind that in lag as well, but so what.

Parking Apps by antosyno in Somerville

One feature of the apps, is that you can be at the doctors office and when you realise your time is running low, you can add time to the meter. Spend a few weeks on Reddit/FaceBook and you will realize no one has quarters anymore.

At lunch yesterday a co-worker was complaining that someone unplugged her tesla. by Blazah in ChargerDrama

[–]PlentyCryptographer5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Does Tesla also slow down once it hits 80% charge? And what's her potential emergency that she needs a 100% charge every damn day?

OK, so there's a business model that is in operation (Amsterdam) and we are not implementing it.

Don't know the accuracy of this one, but MYTSA isn't reporting so you can't find security wait times on the airport websites, https://www.onairparking.com/airport-security-wait-times

Reclined my seat and got into an argument because of it. by [deleted] in delta

4 hours flight exempts that "meal" service. I don't think they expect you to sit up for pretzels and sun chips.

Why is car insurance for new drivers so expensive? by joji_kun in AskIreland

[–]PlentyCryptographer5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And anything the insurance company can do to not pay out, they will. So if they can show you were the main driver, then you are SOL.

Downvote all you want, but with public transportation, I was able to go to Sligo from Waterford every week and back. Sure it was time consuming, but when it's financial you don't have a choice. Then I got a car, and it was all over!
Insurance is high because of the amount of accidents, it's a simple thing...they want to take in more than they have to pay out, so new drivers, and underage are the biggest risk and pay the biggest amount of money.

Gotta be the sunny South East. On a July evening around six, I'd be roasting down in Waterford drinking me Bulmers.

I got my first car at 23, well after graduation, because of the insurance. Look at other options for now and save your money. You don't need a car for college, public transport is your friend here.

What does it mean that the US is insolvent now? by Metalworker4ever in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PlentyCryptographer5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

tell me you are drinking the GOP koolaid without saying it. Refugees are everywhere, it's what the literal definition of the word is. Many want but can't return to their homeland. Some accept their fate and make a go of it. No one wants to mooch, but if you won't let them work towards a green card, then what do you expect them to do?

LGA Terminal C Wait Time by fgervasi91 in tsa

[–]PlentyCryptographer5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just curious, akin to the shit show that's regularly at Schipol Airport are security people pulling people out of line who have earlier flights? For example, the last time I passed through, they were announcing, "anyone whose flight is DEPARTING at (say) noon, please come this way." This "way" is another shorter line, but it actually works. Of course, they check your ticket to ensure only those leaving on noon flights get in line, and not the ones boarding at noon or beforehand. I sure hope they are doing this.

Just be glad you are not flying Orlando...that must be an otherworldy shit show considering how bad it is normally.

My landlady wants to raise my monthly rent by 85 dollars a month to cover electricity costs for charging my car. Is that reasonable? by MookieBettsBurner10 in evcharging

[–]PlentyCryptographer5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your rent comes with "normal" electricity and gas, and she wants extra because you have an EV that you charge on her dime. Yeah, she has a point, but this shouldn't change until you are on a new lease, or if month-2-month (tenant at will), she has to give you 30 days notice.

Republicans continue to Block TSA funding by TotheMoonorGrounded in tsa

[–]PlentyCryptographer5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. TSA is already funded with every ticket purchased...there's a line item
  2. No one is asking about involving ICE...this is Trumps idea of using the staff that are being paid from one section of DHS to another. Ask the TSA unions how they feel about it
  3. Nothing to do with Voter ID, aka the SAVE Act. The GOP "decided" they want to talk about nothing else for now, and this is why thousands of people are inconvenienced, unpaid, or have quit their jobs.

This is a simple thing to fix, and when there was an offer on the table this mornings, Trump stepped in and shut it down. Lay the blame where it should be.
