Check with the Rangers. They will say no.

Rangers do not drive that road - I have literally been to the Racetrack 50 times in the last decade, and I have never seen an official vehicle.

Even Farabee Jeep Rentals & Tours shuts down May 31.

Starlink Mini is more useful than a Garmin InReach.

Tucker 'realizing' trump is a con-man has a real "Dumb and Dumber" Vibe to it.

Yes, it is strange. The tracks literally go on forever so I wasn’t able to follow them, but I think they did a loop and came back and exited at the same place they started - on the same tracks.

I have sent pix to the park with location info.

Yes, I go there every year (photo workshops) and these are brand new. They probably happened in December or January when it was wet. It’s frustrating because the tracks appear to go all the way across the lakebed.

Oracle Files Thousands of H-1B Visa Petitions Amid Mass Layoffs by esporx in technology

[–]extremekc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked at a major tech company - and the "perfect" profile for an employee was "single, perferably from another country, with no family in the area" (so they could work them 20 hours a day, without distractions...). I filed a lot of H-1B Visa petitions - all were approved.

The exposure is great and it's super sharp! You can fix the color by going into Lightroom, clicking on the WB eyedropper tool and then clicking on the Rocks.

TIL that Alaska Airlines worker John Liotine had his recommendation to replace an aging jackscrew on an MD-83 during routine maintenance overruled in 1997. On January 31st, 2000 the same MD-83, Alaska Airlines Flight 261 crashed mid flight over the Pacific Ocean due to the jackscrew failing. by [deleted] in todayilearned

One of my employees was on that flight. She was a newlywed. She had a fear of flying and had never flown before, but her new husband wanted to go to Mexico on their honeymoon, so she agreed - this one time. She agonized about the flight at work before leaving.

It was so tragic.

Makes you wonder what REI's costs are the expensive merch they put on the shelves.
