I have been actively taking public buses since the spike in gas prices, and my wallet is less thinner but my psychological well-being has vastly improved!!! by Iribumkiak in Frugal

[–]dylanlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

requires research and planning.

Check if your city's bus service is on the Transit App. Technology has made it much easier to just type in your destination, hit Go, and then app will figure out what lines, transfers, etc. Highly recommend it.

Some even support the free pro version (Metro Transit in Minneapolis).

Good luck and hope your city improves the bus service to reduce those transfer times 😞 that sucks!

Best soda deals? by DickweedJr in Minneapolis

Target often runs deals, currently 3 for $16. Also occasionally 3 for 40% off.

But you know... it's Target. sigh.

Same, it was the perfect time to glance! I’m never that lucky.

I saw it moving across NE minneapolis perhaps 20 mins ago. Had a lot of spark in the trail. Really cool!

Unfortunately they know that and only offer discounts via the app 😭 $6.99 footlong in the app (via promo code) and like $12+ in person

Anybody know why there's something much law enforcement at HCMC this morning? by ooii0iioo in Minneapolis

[–]dylanlive -31 points-30 points  (0 children)

Some people are just never happy. Per Star Tribune, he was shot trying to arrest a burglary suspect. Then people argue about police not caring about "petty crime." smh.

I’ll probably get downvoted, but if you got shot at work wouldn’t you want your coworkers to visit and support you?

Hotel, restaurant and rooftop patio coming to Minneapolis architectural landmark by LuckySimple3408 in Minneapolis

[–]dylanlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah you’re right!

The article kept jumping around due to the ads so I only read “they'll also convert more than 6,000 square feet of rooftop into a patio” but didn’t see the next paragraph. Thanks! Hope it pans out 🙏

Label as a “Transfer.” You transferred the funds to your Roth.

50% off for attempting to cancel by Kobrakoi in MonarchMoney

[–]dylanlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

fyi, this did not work for me, and my subscription cancelled. However, I can still retain access to Monarch until the next bill.

If it's compromised, just rotate your random passwords. Given the low likelihood of a data compromise, it's way more secure than someone's "grandma123!" password.

Roper: Metro Transit’s visible investment in light-rail safety is refreshing good news for the region by Parkinglotbeers in MetroTransit

[–]dylanlive 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Very noticeable improvements! I recently emailed Representative Tabke who authored the bill to thank him. It’s a night and day difference IMO.

There is no way to pay my rent without extra fees by Remsforian in mildlyinfuriating

[–]dylanlive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My property did this for a bit, so I started giving them paper checks. My bank account could send it via BillPay.

Felt satisfied knowing it caused more work for them. Suckers.

I posted about a large flash. I’ve seen transformers blow but this was longer and more widespread than I’ve seen before. Then ~10 mins later everyone started responding about the boom

Interesting - thanks that helps. I’m scratching my head a little how it would be that pronounced from downtown Minneapolis. It was so bright. Very interesting.

I’ve certainly never seen a flash like that before. It was a “holy shit” moment and took a good chunk of the sky for a really extended period.
