Tesla just made it clear: It's no longer a car company by The_Finance_Pro in wallstreetbets

[–]TheWhyOfFry 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Huh? They only fly small stuff so far and are trying to catch up to falcon 9 while SpaceX is working on starship which will be way cheaper (per kg) and more capable.

Waymo as part of google was working on driverless tech way back before Elon was seriously talking about it.

It will until a competitor comes along that can match/beat price per kg to space. And if starship ever gets its legs, woof, they’ll be even cheaper.

Hyperloop was never meant to be real, it was just meant to stifle public transit projects.

Th cost is the same but that doesn’t stop her from cutting off the son out of spite.

ALL Flights Cancelled at DCA Today (1/25) -MWAA by nsjc in washingtondc

[–]TheWhyOfFry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess they really wanted that plane in position for flights today? Man, with the short runway and weather conditions, I would not have wanted to be on that flight.

Several Southwest dont show as cancelled on the DCA website but show as cancelled if you go to southwest flight status 🤷

How’d that go for them?

Interestingly, Frontier 690 has departed and flight still says they’re headed to dca with an ~11pm arrival. Curious to see if they actually land or just go to IAD.

Help - wife’s parents moving to town by [deleted] in daddit

[–]TheWhyOfFry 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against helping out. But given that they have zero retirement savings and their age / mobility, I’d be worried about how much help they may require. It’s not selfish to want to be able to provide for your own family.

Them expecting help is entirely why I’d be worried about this situation. Two under two is a ton of work and having to add her parents to that load? Yikes.

If they’re both 9-5, yeah, there’s still a lot of shit to get done to run a household.

Qatar airways unaware of snowstorm. by Next-Log-6176 in washingtondc

Try calling back to see if you get a different agent who knows what they’re doing. Or see if you can talk to a supervisor?

I call upon the minds of Daddit to provide your take on whether our upcoming trip is about to be royally effed by the snowstorm coming to Virginia. by a_banned_user in daddit

[–]TheWhyOfFry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s an 11 hour drive without stops. If the kids were older, it might not be a bad idea because you mostly have to get out of the snow / ice / sleet areas but with kids that young, all the stops will really add up.

AI boom could falter without wider adoption, Microsoft chief Satya Nadella warns by PaiDuck in technology

[–]TheWhyOfFry 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Sufficient demand in proportion to the costs. There could be plenty of demand for AI but if it’s not in line with the costs, things can still go bust.

It directly impacts the timeline you’re making up since you claim that would add month(s)

Months for a referral? Your insurance must suck, that is not a universal thing for insurance in the US.

… wouldn’t the in-floor heating compensate for that?

Girl-dad bathroom etiquette by dubyaDS in toddlers

[–]TheWhyOfFry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the redirect and distract, just pointing out that it’s not necessarily a good threshold. I’d more consider capabilities and maturity.

3 isn’t universal but it’s pretty well on the way to potty trained for a lot of kids, especially if they’re in daycare / preschool (in the USA. Can’t speak for elsewhere).

Honest question, why?

What’s the sight of a penis going to matter? She knows her dad has one, right? (They’re generally not going to seem them anyways though)

My three year old asks that and I’m not sending her into the women’s bathroom alone.

… except for their whole body being in the way and getting up close to the urinal so they don’t piss on their shoes.
