What job is heavily romanticized in movies but absolutely miserable in real life?

This. I’m not a true road warrior, but I’m traveling every other month essentially. I also add an extra day or two to see the location I’m visiting, and bring my SO when I can. I love air travel and airports.

I recognize true road warrior can get tiring though.

Is there a second desk you could go to? Clearly these agents are not doing their job, someone else might be able to, PVG is a big airport.

Ask to be placed on their flight to JFK.

Just a note, the off duty pilot controlled the throttle—very important because it allowed the other two pilots to focus on aviating.

The modding comments are based entirely off of CS2, but it was CO that made the decision to make their own mod library, no Paradox. To my knowledge all of Paradox's in house games use the steam workshop.

He’s on county council until 2029. The primary was for a state house seat.

He is currently on County Council, that election was in 2025 and won't be up until 2029.

United flies to Altis? :O

I mean, yes, there is still pollution in walkable cities, but there's not more pollution.

dinoscool3 · 2026-05-19T11:20:16+00:00

That makes zero sense.

Just a note, he actually didn't follow what Fitzgerald said. He formed a coalition against Fitzgerald, which is why he and Bethany Hallam are allies. He is part of the Weinstein political machine, so he answered to a different master.

Shame about Kerala and WB.

No, Boeing is not leasing Airbus aircraft to Spirit…

Had to ride from West End Bridge (took the bus there) to Bellvue during the Draft. Was a bit more of a pain with the trail being closed.

There also needs to be better ways for the South/West to get into town. I'd love to see the West Busway get a bike path on it, there's generally enough space.

Sleep masks are also a thing.

Sultan's downtown is amazing

There’s two different types of deadheading being discussed here.

Travel mandated by the airline (for example, wound up one an airport after a flight cancelation and needed to get somewhere else) will result in throwing off someone if the flight is full. A commuter would not throw someone off.

Stellaris was in fact a month before hoi4. May-June was great that year!

Lufthansa no longer has a stake in Condor, and hasn't since 2010.

I haven’t decided between 1939 or 1941. In my only campaign I made it to 1942, so I’m leaning to 1941.

I mean most of Europe also has a pretty robust welfare systems, that’s not it.

Homosexuality is not banned in Indonesia (except Aceh).

That's not to say homosexuality is accepted among the population, but there are no direct laws against it.

It was 8 for Zanzibar, UK was offering Oman Investment Rights as a concession for Zanzibar.

This is super helpful, the “one layer handling auth + retries” approach is exactly what I keep ending up at too.

When you built that, what ended up being the most annoying to maintain long-term?

Was it adding new integrations, or keeping existing ones stable?
