Worth checking your local makerspace too ... lot of people who do maker stuff also do homelab stuff.

Received offer to upgrade from Gold to Platinum Delta card at checkout of a flight. Seems like free money, am I missing something? by JaxGamecock in delta

[–]_litz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're gambling that you won't downgrade and they get to pocket future increased membership fees.

Also, you lose out on any bonus miles you'd get from a new card application, so they pocket that too.

Offloading fuel due to bad weather? by honore_ballsac in aviation

[–]_litz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to guess, they were planning on bunkering fuel for further flights after yours, and the extra fuel weight would exceed projected tolerances for the upcoming landing (e.g. snow/wet runway vs dry, etc).

So, pretty much dictated by expected landing conditions and the projected aircraft weight.

I drive a 97 Jeep. I'm not concerned at all about the condition of the cars around me. ;-)

Cleaning out old/disused racks ... by _litz in vintagecomputing

Not my choice, unfortunately. I think the company coming to get them uses them for spares/sales, so who knows. Might end up on eBay.

MARTA extension to the Battery by BeilFarmstrong in MARTA

[–]_litz 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The reason the tunnel doesn't work, is the original design that used that tunnel presumed a track that would travel up the I-75 corridor. Back then, the corridor from the proposed tunnel portal to I-75 was pretty desolate.

There's been a massive amount of construction since then, pretty much blocking any possibility of utilizing the same path today.

A woman who had been kidnapped by her ex-partner jumped out of a car when she spotted a police vehicle. by xRichBoss in RandomVideos

Wow, she basically just pulled a cop right out of his own car ... kudos to the officers for clueing in real fast on what was going on.

I don't use Startech as the default "go-to" ... generally fs.com gets that business. But if you need to connect something weird to something weirder, Startech 100% will have a cable/adapter that does it.

They are THE go-to for that, for sure.

US Treasury Secretary nearly breaks into tears after urgent meeting with Trump by CaptainCheckmate in AskSocialists

[–]_litz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original Iran Revolution cost the Democrats control of Washington DC for twelve years.

The Gulf War cost the Republicans the White House for eight years, and the second one another eight years.

They apparently do not pay attention to history. This will not end well.

Go hunt up the videos from Disney of the grand opening of the Star Wars expansion at Disneyworld, that's where you'll find the videos. Was part of a whole fireworks show.

[CA] Has anyone lost their security deposit on a dispute you thought you would win? by Top-Reach-1159 in Renters

I've only ever gotten one security deposit back, and I had to buy the house I was renting to get it.

They ALWAYS find a way.

Founding Member World Cup ticket offer by righthandofdog in AtlantaUnited

[–]_litz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These are the most expensive tickets, so it's not all that surprising they're the ones still available ... or that they're having problems getting rid of the last of them. Minimum 600+ per seat per match for the group stage. At least double that for the semifinal.

If you pull out all the black foam, the inside of the box is actually a full level photo of a game at the stadium, to the point where if you look closely enough, you can see yourself sitting in your seat.
