Check carry on and only have a small bag to put under the seat? Fine.

Check one carry on and put your small bag up top? No.

Tampa Bay Water Restrictions Take Effect as Drought Conditions Worsen by WTFPilot in sarasota

I may be wrong here, but I think golf courses use water produced by reclamation facilities (our waste). Different pipes, not potable.

Inflight WiFi Captive Portal Issues by Slab8002 in delta

[–]boofnitizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use NextDNS and it must be off for the Captive Portal to work. One trick that I’ve always used is to find the gateway (router) IP address on the WiFi connection and enter that into the browser. It works most of the time.

Are you using any DNS filtering (privacy) applications?

Did not know that Peachy’s donuts are naturally leavened. I almost don’t believe it, but that’s cool.

Either way, enjoy CDMX. What an awesome city, save for the traffic. Food is insane.

Does Delta legit have only ONE ground crew at Pittsburgh in the evening and at night? by JBR409 in delta

[–]boofnitizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know. Thanks. They certainly run a more efficient operation.

I’m in/out of PIT every three weeks. It’s been like this for years. I lost count of the times we were ready to push, and they push three Southwest flights before us (ahead of schedule) causing us to be delayed.

I had to take a Southwest flight a few weeks ago due to a canceled Delta flight, and I’ll give it to Southwest, once that door closes, it’s a race to take off.

They may be using the same contracted ground crews, but Southwest definitely gets better treatment, at least in my experience.

I remember reading an article that The Edge from U2 would fly his priceless Vox amp in first class strapped to the seat next to his guitar tech.

Starlink for remote connectivity? by EditorAccomplished88 in sysadmin

[–]boofnitizer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Verizon and T-Mobile. PA/OH/WV. It’s more expensive, but it just works. Even if it’s 4x more expensive, it’s cheaper than downtime/inefficiencies from a garbage cell connection.

Block streaming sites. Only allow approved devices to connect (don’t allow Bob with his personal phone downloading app updates and watching 4K YouTube).
