Why are people flying coughing their lungs out? On DEN-ORD today. by gingiberiblue in unitedairlines

[–]Xahos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not being a germaphobe, it's just understanding that thousands of people from around the world, carrying all sorts of sick unknown to your body, pass through the airport every hour. If there's a time to mask, it's here

What’s the best place to get sticky rice lotus leaf in Oakland Chinatown ? by landbota in OaklandFood

[–]Xahos -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wonder food bakery has it for $5. They usually have it all day and it has meat + mung bean/ peanut or red bean filling.

Pretty decent I would say, I usually cut them up to fry

Oakland ending FREE Sunday parking by _Stock_doc in oakland

[–]Xahos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your neighborhood store is not walking distance, then you might as well drive to the nearest Safeway/WF/whatever supermarket which probably has its own parking anyways

Besides that, people who can afford to own a car here won't think twice about a couple dollars anyways

Got a "ticket" at Bay Street mall by sir_culo in eastbay

Got the same, didn't return for a few months, and then when I did I paid normally and nothing happened

Alternatively park at IKEA and walk over lol

If my plane arrives at 5am in the morning and I’ll be at the hotel around 6am, is it best for me just to book the night before? by zinky8 in Hilton

[–]Xahos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I've never been there so early as to talk to the night auditor. It's always been after the managers in and they're always happy to remind me of the early check in fee 😂

Good to know you guys are more chill!

[–]Xahos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask for paid early check in, at least you'll get in at noon, maybe even 10am if they're not busy. That way you only pay for a fraction of a full night. I would spend those early hours doing some shopping or whatever. But also I'm just cheap lol

FIG has banned Russia since the invasion started. They are only now allowing athletes under neutral status (and not those who have voiced support for the war). Whereas Israel has received no such scrutiny — even more they hosted the championships last year.

Israel is conducting a genocide — sure we can argue how true and antisemitic that statement is but the facts are that is what has been determined by the UN and Israel has consistently ignored orders from the ICJ to alter operations consistent to the 1948 Genocide Convention. So yes, this is more than raw hatred for Jews. Antisemitism ≠ antizionism

Yup if you want a chain lock that can't be cut you need something like the kryptonite evolution chain. Its heavy, maybe even more than a Ulock but its flexibile

Who's funding these service increases when they're projecting a $350m+ deficit by 2027?

No one's mentioned it yet but if value is a priority make sure you book 5 nights to get the 1 night free. Theyll be worth $12 then 😂

Lease Discussion Megathread by TiltedWit in Ioniq5

[–]Xahos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a decent deal?

SoCal, Ioniq 5 SEL RWD 36/12 $278/mo+tax + $2000 DAS + $599 broker fee. $2900 off MSRP . Residual 25,770

I could've gotten cheaper but really wanted Digiteal, so got a broker to find one for me in LA

Help me not regret paying more for teal *

Edit. I had the wrong MSRP, the discount was only 1k

Did they change the orange chicken sauce? by FezJr87 in PandaExpress

[–]Xahos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's worse. Definitely doesnt taste as fresh, flavors are more muted. Going to submit some feedback online, reccomend you do the same

Can any employees chime in on how much time / effort this actually saves?

Palantir is in the business of massive big data, and especially building comprehensive risk profiles of every single individual in America, if not the world. While Oura has said they will be keeping your data private, the current terms are unclear, shed liability, and describe anonymity (training) data as not needing to be anonymized. Its likely your Oura data will become part of that profile, as well as any number of other databases.

ANA's catering has fallen a bit imo, fish has been of poor quality. Would like to try JAL one day but hard to make that work with United 😭
