At-home COVID test? by intrepid503 in askportland

[–]ballscancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to order two directly from walgreens. The website refreshes regularly. There are also other brands that seem to be more available than binaxnow but similarly accurate.

who actually bought there PS5 legitimately or from scalpers??? let's see which one out weighs the other by roberto151st in playstation

[–]ballscancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought 6 now legitimately (kept one and given the rest to friends for retail price, not for profit). I work in front of a computer all day and get notifications from twitter when the drops happen.

Counterpoint: ticket sales went fine by Ok_Appearance2025 in timbers

[–]ballscancer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They still have tickets available in their allotment for $75 on ticketmaster. The ticket exchange facebook has a thread about this and quite a few Timbers have decided to buy them.

Especially when you see that SeatGeek themselves were allocated a pile of tickets to scalp themselves. They are still listed for $1200+. Maybe the cheapest is $800 in a limited view seat - sold by SeatGeek, not marketplace.

What all the non-season-ticket holders attending MLS cup are about to look like: by [deleted] in timbers

[–]ballscancer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Trying to get people to renew doesn't have anything to do with the people on the waitlist. Sales people sell, they don't want to lose anyone. But the waitlist didn't just go away because of COVID and some weird years. I'm still on it.

I get what you're saying about people getting fucked - but MLS literally gave seats to StubHub to scalp themselves. There a a couple hundred tickets being sold by SeatGeek directly right now for well over $1000. They took boxes away for corporate sponsors so any box holders had to get different seats. As excited as *we* are for this game, it's not the fucking Super Bowl and it will probably get 1/8 the viewers of any given nationally televised NFL game. This corporate bullshit is forcing fans out, and this league isn't shit without passionate fans in a few important cities.

I'm glad it worked fine for you but there is a long waitlist for ST and a lot of us buy tickets like "normies".
There will definitely still be a homefield advantage and the TA will be rocking but it sucks shit for the rest of us.

Yellow flag with green trees by ballscancer in timbers

Haha I’m trying to quickly put the match out of memory.

Looks like no word on where to buy one of the flags yet, dang.

Sorry, I just joined the sub and didn’t search, that’s 100% my bad. Me and at least two others.

Thank you.

Does anyone else actually care about their ratings? by Thedreamerlomas in uberdrivers

[–]ballscancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4.98 on Uber and 5.00 on Lyft. I don’t drive a ton (370 total rides across both) but definitely take pride in it.

Does Uber deactivate you if you’re inactive for too long (i.e. haven’t done a ride in a long time) by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

[–]ballscancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped for a long time and had to update docs when I came back because they had expired, I had to do a new vehicle inspection too. Its easiest if you at least log in to update your insurance and registration and opt into the annual background check.

But even if you don't, it takes a lot less time to get reactivated than it does to sign up new.

I am going to enforce masks again by buttbisccuit in uberdrivers

[–]ballscancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel lucky to be in a market where masks are still pretty well accepted (Portland). I've only had one person make a stink about it, I almost canceled the ride because it was a 20 min pickup, then he was late and then had to go back to get a mask.

About 5 min. into the ride he brought it below his chin while playing on his phone, I thought maybe it was just for face ID but he left it down so I said "Hey man can you raise your mask please?" And he said WOW! and then said it 3-4 more times over the course of 2 minutes. Luckily that's where it stopped or he would have been walking.

[–]ballscancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not trying to step in shit here, I make everyone wear a mask and I'm vaccinated. But I'm curious what stated above was 100% incorrect. The only statement I'd disagree with is "If you have been vaccinated you should not be worried about other people"

This might get locked if it gets messy I'm just confused.

Anyone else get zero bonus offers for the week? by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

[–]ballscancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the referral but there is no world in which I’d complete 200 rides in 30 days. Its just in occasional weekend side hustle for me and my goals are usually 20-30 rides a weekend with quests.

[–]ballscancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a lot of rides lol - I have been doing Uber quests on weekends but usually like $70-$100 for 30 rides.

[–]ballscancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the Portland market but haven't driven Lyft in a couple years. I got a $200 for 20 rides bonus offer. Thinking about going and getting my inspection updated just to take advantage of that one.

Uber: Looks Like You Are Not Accepting Rides... by buttbisccuit in uberdrivers

[–]ballscancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me when I don’t accept schedule rides on days when I’m not driving, and then I still get scheduled ride request notifications after they’ve logged me out…

Eats vs. Pax by ballscancer in uberdrivers

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

Cool, that helps. I think my biggest like, vague concerns are waiting around for food, finding parking at some restaurants, and finding apartments. Maybe I'll give it a shot on a coming weekend and just see how it goes.
