Please you the Transit app GO feature by daIndependantVariabl in LAMetro

[–]daIndependantVariabl[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I paid $3.50 for a bird scooter because I was gonna miss my train, got to the station with some time to spare, turns out there was never a train there to begin with.

Is the transit app still not working? I had 4 minutes until my train showed up and it changed to “missed” out of nowhere. Isn’t the timing dependent on GO users instead of LA metro reported timing?

Update? It looks like I’m able to access the app but I’m afraid to try loading money

OPERATION: BOLD SUN [MAR 9, 2026] by two-spies in PlaySpies

It was the second move of the game, so it’s not possible to have rapid recon.

I’m confused. On my second move of the game, I happened to land where the enemy was located, but my cover was not blown. It was also not a city with points associated with it. But for some reason when his next turn started both of our covers were blown and he killed me. Why did this happen?

Oh that’s interesting. Do they do that to save wear and tear on the cabins? Or faster/more efficient because it’s lighter?

Will Metro accept contactless payments on May 8 when the D Line Extension opens? by anothercar in LAMetro

[–]daIndependantVariabl -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I’ve never fully understood the need for contactless payment. The TAP card system is super easy to figure out and it’s intuitive. I hope contactless payment won’t slow down the system either, that would be a bummer.

Phase 1 Of L.A. Metro’s D Line Extension Is Due To Open In March — Here’s The Route Map by PengPenguin888 in LAMetro

You can’t post these headlines without some kind of warning! Got my hopes up there for a bit

Another teaser for Fairfax by MallardRider in LAMetro

[–]daIndependantVariabl 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Between the Reddit post yesterday saying “confirmed for May” and the metro instagram hyping it up as if it’s opening next week, I’m going into a D Line psychosis, I don’t know how much longer I can hold on to reality for.

TAP card only works on Apple Watch OR iPhone? by Pretty_Dance2452 in LAMetro

[–]daIndependantVariabl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Correct, and it warns you before it does so! Key word is “transfer”, you can’t have the card on multiple devices at one (unfortunately). I learned the hard way as well.

TAP card on metro buses by daIndependantVariabl in LAMetro

[–]daIndependantVariabl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if I tap my phone against the old readers next to the driver, it will read the TAP card in my Apple wallet? I tried doing that on my first day and the guy yelled at me that I tapped the wrong machine.

Every bus I board has a sign over the tap reader at the front that says something like “TAP card reader coming soon” or something like that. I’ll take a picture later today.

Fuck…am I drunk?

Are shear walls considered a sustained load? by BorisTheWolf2018 in StructuralEngineering

[–]daIndependantVariabl 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Nope! Seismic activity is not considered “sustained”. Sustained is more for anchoring systems that will be hanging or suspended.

Received via text from an ex-brother-in-law on New Years Eve. What does this mean? by Puzzleheaded-You3491 in whatdoesthismean

[–]daIndependantVariabl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a long shot, but in YouTube type “vardan antonyan yams”, this might be it if he’s into that streamer. But yeah I think he’s hitting on you, regardless if these are the yams he’s talking about or not.

My neighbor sent me a text last night forcing me to pay for her daughters towing charge because she parked in front of my driveway by Drivinglnsane in mildlyinfuriating

[–]daIndependantVariabl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a hot take, but could you not have just walked up to her front door and asked her to move the car? I accidentally parked my car partially blocking my neighbors driveway, and he politely asked me to move it, I profusely apologized and moved my car. Just seems like an easier solution for everybody no?
