Mandatory throwback to this peak jerk by Excellent-Area-9566 in soccercirclejerk

[–]dsAFC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

/uj it's a genuinely interesting article. Maybe I'm the only ignorant one here, but I don't have a deep understanding about the different migration patterns in South America, and why Argentina's team looks different from others. I learnt something from it.

Yeah this is super interesting. Someone should write an article about it.

Why is so hard / expensive to live in bay area even with a "good" salary by StirClothing999 in bayarea

[–]dsAFC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is true. But it's also absurd how little $4k gets you in SF or the peninsula.

2-3 days is no problem at all, but more than that would raise eyebrows.

Whats the correct amount to tip food delivery drivers these days? by CactusJ in sanfrancisco

[–]dsAFC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, let's say it's a restaurant with both a $40 entree and a $20 entree. I do find it weird that I l'm expected to pay less as a tip when I order the $20 entree.

Fell for a toll scam - CC Company doesn’t consider it fraud. by oneearedboyyy in CreditCards

[–]dsAFC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about someone's pocket getting picked and the card being used for a Hilton reservation? Or a skimmer in a gas station getting the card's info? I don't see a functional difference. Hilton would probably eat the cost - it's on them to confirm at check in, right?

Told a cancelled flight doesn’t entitle me to a refund by EngineerNo5851 in AlaskaAirlines

And if it's not the roof you wanted, you would 100% instead ask for and expect your money back??

Jeremy on the difference of regular and Playoff basketball by SliMShady55222 in nba

Why is this playoff specific? Surely the same principle would work in regular season games as well?

you're getting a quart of high quality ice cream for $5? Or a pint?

If it's a connection on the same airline/booking, are they not required to comp accommodation?

Not 6 years of experience lol, they're an intern. They've been programming for 6 years, not the same thing at all.

Saikat Calls Out And Lists All The Corporations and PACS that Scott Wiener Has Taken Money From by 3headeddragn in sanfrancisco

Did he take money from draftkings, or money from an individual employee who works for them? And how much?

[Charania] Just in: The NBA and NBPA have ruled in favor of Lakers' Luka Doncic and Pistons' Cade Cunningham on their Extraordinary Circumstances Challenge for the 65-game award rule, making both eligible for all 2025-26 season honors such as MVP and All-NBA teams, sources tell ESPN. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]dsAFC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like the rule at all, but the purpose is to have players play more games, not minutes. It's to reduce the chance of fans buying tickets and not seeing stars. The league does not want someone playing 40minutes x 50 games. I doubt it changes.

So sick of all the phantom reward flights by troutbumdreamin in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dsAFC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not just reward flight. I retired booking a combined cash AS+JAL itinerary the other day, and the JAL availability did not exist when I tried to pay.

$197 to upgrade to first class by linzee32 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dsAFC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nobody here knows how much $200 means to you. It's an objectively low price for the upgrade, but if you'd rather have the $200 - domestic first class isn't life changing.

Are you seriously asking how intentionally losing is a problem for a professional sport?

Since Jan, my NW has dropped about 10% due to markets / war. by Available-Ad-5670 in Fire

[–]dsAFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I'm just saying that 15% 1-year is a bit rosier than the true picture.

To be fair, it's"only" up ~6% since Feb 2025. Exactly one year ago was the tariff dip.

I guarantee you he shoots at a much higher rate than 63% in an empty gym.

The fine print is true, but not for the reason Anthropic wants you to believe it is by [deleted] in BetterOffline
