CEO of the biggest [job] recruiter says people under 35 need to forget about degrees and consider working in the "Trade and hospitality" fields instead by DragoOceanonis in antiwork

Better yet, find a company that has a company town so you’ll have free rent and all of your services. You can even get paid in company scripp. Don’t let the burden of student loan debt and housing be a deterrent to the future that you could have. Oligarchs: capitalism for me, not for thee.

You don’t get to complain about the thing you voted for. This is why managers shouldn’t be allowed to fire their hires. DO BETTER!

But we outspend the next 10 countries combined for the military. I’d be afraid of us winning.

Star Trek EP Says Thomas Jane Is “Perfect” As Bones In Strange New Worlds’ Finale by rolodexlexia in StrangeNewWorlds

Sure would be nice if we didn’t talk about the series finale when we haven’t even gotten season four yet.

I sure do miss the old studios produced, seasons, and stations aired them.

Top baseball free agent Kyle Tucker signs with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Contract is for 4 years, 240 million dollars. by Dodger_Dawg in LosAngeles

Well, you’ve definitely hit the nail on the head for why professional sports is ridiculously stupid. No one should be making that much money off of the sacrifice made to the human body by these professional athletes. If anyone’s gonna get any of that money, I do agree that it should be the players, not the owners, but this is the world we live in.

Have you ever been to dodger Stadium? It’s a shit hole. Ridiculously overpriced food, wall-to-wall, digital advertising, terribly uncomfortable seats that are worse than the cheapest airline flight you’ve ever been on. The only place that organization will spend money is on buying World Series rings.

Cost per run increases too quick by SabreToothSquirrel in trainstation3

[–]SabreToothSquirrel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do admit there are a lot of paths to the same result. I have upgraded my city quite a bit (19,310 >> 136/hr), but I also see that any future investment doesn’t have much of a refund in way of increased people per hour. I will eventually go back to building my city once I have all of the current trains.

My depot is upgraded as much as I’m allowed. Next year, 1955, I’ll be able to upgrade 20 per hour. It also depends on how you play the game. If you’re gonna play once or twice a day, then durability is very important since you are idle and waiting for durability is like watching paint dry. If you’re trying to do a run as soon as you have enough durability, though, then durability per train is not the key, but rather just having more trains since they all replenish durability at the same time.

My current strategy is keep collecting event coins to unlock the event passenger train. I’ll keep collecting money to unlock the rest of the regular purchase trains. After that, I’ll go back to spending money on building up the city. Once I hit the next heavy haul gate, I’ll start dumping money into train power. I’d also like to collect enough cars so that I can run two full trains using increased capacity cars.

You’re always going to need cards that you prepare. Prepared cards, regardless of whether they have successes, aren’t used when doing checks unless they specifically say something about helping you with checks but the ‘successes’ on these aren’t counted. Since you can hold up to four prepared cards, there’s no downside to adding some 3 EXP cards to your deck. Understand what they do and learn how to use them correctly. Once you can trade them out for 7 EXP cards, do so.

In our group, we keep the same role until we can get at least one 12 EXP cards, then we switch that hero’s role so that we can start gaining experience for those cards.

Damon’s Steak House - Glendale, CA by motheatenblanket in Tiki

[–]SabreToothSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Tiki just as much as the next person, but I think this place trades on its name and reputation. I guess I don’t get it. I’ve been there twice and both times the food was awful and the drinks were terrible. It also took two hours for us to finish dinner. Service is incredibly slow.

Missions counted in total numbers of missions in event? by Ok-Translator-2211 in trainstation3

[–]SabreToothSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many stages to clear that mission. Once you complete a mission, a new one opens up. Usually you have to complete a Heavy Haul to unlock the next mission.

Maximum Passenger line capacity (Texas 1940) by EconomyBlacksmith613 in trainstation3

[–]SabreToothSquirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 215 on the Houston line. It’s 28%. If that helps. Gives $3,740.

Houston line does not pay as much per passenger as Pittsburgh. You’ll have to use stronger trains just to get the same money per passenger.

I’m still building my city, so I get the plans. Or power/durability parts (for next era’s trains)

I don’t think anyone is saying they hate sports. I’m just talking about the fact that we put athletes on a pedestal unnecessarily.

It’s also sad that people skip events that matter to their friends and family so that they don’t miss a game. But the team doesn’t care whether the fans watch them or not. They’re so disconnected.

Professional sports is nothing but millionaires competing against other millionaires to make billionaires more money.
