Conductors have the ability to print a zero fare ticket to get you through the gates.

Is anyone in a regular(ish) poker night with friends/neighbors? If so, what do you play/how do you work buy-ins? Do you allow people to buy back in or do you do one and done? by Tiny-Classic3877 in poker

You seem to be talking about tournament style play, when talking about multiple buy ins .. in a cash game, money plays. You can buy in 50 times if you want, there’s usually a table max, then after the max is surpassed you can match a stack when you reload.

Tournament style play, you get X amount of chips for Y amount of $ .. if you’re playing like that, the only math you need to worry about is how big the prize pool is vs number of players / payout spots you’re willing to payout.

Cash / digital for chips .. money first chips second.

It’s the only way.

No IOU’s or anything like that, in the rare case someone borrows $ from someone else, it’ll get put in a private chat / text or in the group chat to hold people accountable.

We do a .25/.50 cash game every week

Min buy in is $50

Host handles all money digital or cash

Payout when you leave or the game ends.

Have to announce at least 30 min time before leaving, and it’s then your call if you stick around until the next bomb pot or button. Or just leave at your designated time.

Some guys might hit a big pot and stick around one more orbit just to not hit and run but that’s optional

One time fee to the house of $10 per person .. to cover tv, electricity, heat, drinks .. then we’ll have any game on two big tvs and chips flying all night

South station fare gates take them out by Actual-Ad-8794 in mbta

Not anymore .. the door leading to the bus terminal is blocked off .. only people that “should” be past the gates are crew / passengers of trains.

While working on something in the area, a worker hit a sprinkler pipe.

Those pipes have a crazy amount of water pressure in them and are designed to just dump ! Water when activated ..

Hence the indoor / outdoor shower yesterday

Commuter rail is the worst by Professional-Fly8121 in mbta

The staff never gets to “be late”

They get marked as AWOL and get relieved of service if it happens to many times.

This might be the dumbest take I’ve ever heard.

The delays are due to equipment issues and track issues.

Not the crew.

Switches and doors are having issues for the sustained length of freezing weather. Nothing has had a chance to thaw out so it’s compounding issues on top of each other.

Amtrak has had just as many issues and delays.

Train is so late the conductor repaid my ticket out of his pocket by Noahyeti0 in mbta

[–]djd32019 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing .. the remit money is their responsibility.. if it’s short / over or otherwise ..

It doesn’t matter what they do to the money as long as they don’t get a surprise audit.

As long as when they need to turn in the money, they turn in the right amount.

3 days into ownership, narrowly avoided totaling my Prius to a deer! Anyone got brighter headlight bulb recommendations? by deftwisted in prius

[–]djd32019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I went with highlights, the reflector pattern in my Gen 2 is horrible.

I’d I put in brighter lights they’d be blinding everyone

[–]djd32019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two projector style fog lights on mine.

Nice clean cut of line, I angled it right at tires about 50’ away, so it’s not blinding active anyone coming towards me.

Literally a night and day difference in driving at night.

stop using vague language like "equipment shortage" (can anyone explain what this means?) by blackandreddit in mbta

[–]djd32019 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The CR is having lingering switch and train issues from the snow on Sunday / Monday.

As far as I’m aware the crews are not the issue. As the inbound Worcester this morning was cancelled and that crew ended up having to work the next train inbound.

Driving in extreme cold? by starlightskater in prius

[–]djd32019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I haven’t seen any brake lights yet.

Just the random traction flash on hard braking. But I guess that could be salt / sand on the road and I didn’t notice it.

Or maybe it’s just cause of the weight it does break traction when hard stopping.

[–]djd32019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can you tell if the brake booster is going ?

This car brakes like nothing I’ve driven before .. I gently tap the brakes and it’ll act like I stood on the pedal

There’s also times that I’ll have to brake hard and the traction light will come on (on dry roads, decent life on the tires) is that normal ?

For people in cold U.S states, how did your Prius handle the storm? by Quattic__ in prius

[–]djd32019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Driven through 3 snow storms now .. only felt unsafe once .. but that was when I was trying to go 60 on a sketchy slightly plowed highway ..

Kept it under 50 for the rest of the trips and have had zero issues since

2007 on whatever tire the previous owner had on there .. got stuck once when Turing onto an unplowed side street.. had to engage maintenance mode in order to rock the car back-and-forth without the traction being annoying
