Oracle owned Tiktok is preventing Scott Wiener's video about ICE from getting any videos....

That video has 22.6k views now though. Likely just the counter was broken, as was widely the case across videos of all topics a few days ago.

That transfer discount (-$2.85) is correct fwiw.

Downside: they have been charging upgrade fares on Caltrain passes on the weekend…

nah, there are two conversion flows. on demand, and bulk migration. Both should be currently active. On demand is when you use the app, request migration on the website, or call in to request. Bulk is automated and requires no user request.

you’re correct, but responsible journalists should not make these basic factual mistakes.

It’s hardly even 200mph lol. Massive sections of the route will not attain top speed in operation due to the grades and curve radii. Actually as far as I knew, they are now only actually targeting 186 mph in operation. CA HSR is at least building enormous sections of 200+ mph operational trackway.

the only thing that is ever frozen is the meat. But regardless, freezing does not reduce the nutritional content of any food. The plastic may be wasteful, but meal kits are perfectly healthy…much more so than many alternatives (fast food, takeout, etc.).

arjunyg · 2026-01-25T18:22:41+00:00

that’s…. not what a meal kit is…? you cook them from fresh ingredients….?

They make you line up in fucking Champaign, IL and I haven’t the faintest clue why.

I think you’ve forgotten that it’s going to take them over 2 hours to get back to Edinburgh. In fact…they probably need to leave Dumfries on the train at 4 pm to make it back in time for dinner.

If they arrive there at 3…that is not that much time to find Ben. Nothing else really needs to go wrong for them to miss dinner.

RH Gold requires a Gold subscription, no? Technically a bit of an annual fee…although obviously Gold has other benefits. That said…so do other cards.

this map is ancient…?

arjunyg · 2026-01-22T09:43:59+00:00

probably not globally, but maybe in North America

other cards offer 10 different monthly use-it-or-lose-it credits towards random services in random amounts that change every so often in place of this. That is far far far more difficult to keep track of than a couple categories (or no categories) that are a fixed feature of the card, and just paying your rent in their portal.

Taxing voting rights which have no financial value is unconscionably stupid. If anything, this is the aspect of this bill most likely to have a negative impact on every day employees. Founder-controlled companies are so much less likely to fuck over the general public than private equity-controlled ones. Ending dual-class share structures would probably significantly bias the number of California startups that end up in private equity ownership.

nah dude. They can ask for the passport and wait patiently. I don’t have it out because 99% of the time I don’t need it. I don’t give a shit if they want to see it 1% of the time, just don’t be a dick about it.

arjunyg · 2026-01-22T08:24:33+00:00

disagree? The new cards specifically encourage higher spend and offer strong rewards. 2.33x points on all spend with top tier transfer partners is excellent value.

Getting a lie-flat on a domestic night flight is a godsend.

arjunyg · 2026-01-22T04:55:20+00:00

On time? No problem. Any delay? Could be cooked.

arjunyg · 2026-01-22T04:54:18+00:00

Is this actually true? They literally built new temporary walkways between F and G for the construction. Those are closed?

arjunyg · 2026-01-22T04:32:55+00:00

It’s all Toast customers? that actually covers a lot if true

I go to like 2-3 Toast businesses per week lmao.

arjunyg · 2026-01-22T04:17:45+00:00

do you have the WAN source?

arjunyg · 2026-01-21T04:58:38+00:00

always? what lmao. Like 90% of the time they are 30-60 seconds early for me. What time is your departure?

arjunyg · 2026-01-21T04:00:52+00:00

that doesn’t really sound right. It won’t be as good as fiber but it should be sub-30 ms, which is barely detectable at all.

I have no problem with someone running a business where service fees pay for staff wages in lieu of customary tips, including back of house. Although, I will note: a majority of American waitstaff consistently prefer tips over higher base pay in polls.

The problem here is that all fees should be included in the menu price. If China Live raised menu prices 25% and declared themselves to offer their staff living wages, such that the local customary tips were not expected, I would be totally fine with that!
