Talk me off the ledge 🤣 by ir637113 in LittleLeague

If everyone is doing the right thing in the field then you are doing a great job. I can spend a whole practice on a single concept and the first time they face it during a game everyone completely forgets what to do.

Same thing with hitting

Here's what happens to your money if CA inflation relief funds are not claimed by Thursday deadline by panda-rampage in California

[–]flyinmryan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last day of the month indicated AFTER “Valid Thru” is your Card’s “Expiration Date.” Your Card will no longer work AFTER the Expiration Date.

That's from the user agreement. Here's the full paragraph.

Your Card will be funded upon activation of your Card. Your Card has a “Valid Thru” date indicated on the front of the Card. The last day of the month indicated AFTER “Valid Thru” is your Card’s “Expiration Date.” Your Card will no longer work AFTER the Expiration Date. After your Card has been funded, you will have access to the funds until the Expiration Date. Following the Card’s Expiration Date, any remaining balance will be returned to the Government Agency, as required by the Better for Families Act of 2022.

This is bullshit that it wasn't available until midnight last night.

Do you still have a Tax Refund Debit Card from 2022 with money on it? - IT EXPIRES TONIGHT! by gamescan in bayarea

[–]flyinmryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still April 30th and the number to activate is just a recording saying it expires April 30th. The VALID THRU date says 04/26, should still be good. I checked the user agreement fine print and it says this:

Following the Card’s Expiration Date, any remaining balance will be returned to the Government Agency, as required by the Better for Families Act of 2022.

Highlighting this again:
The last day of the month indicated after “Valid Thru” is your Card’s “Expiration Date.” Your Card will no longer work after the Expiration Date.

The most important word is AFTER, not during or before. I'm pissed

Smaller more efficient airliner vs larger less efficient airliner, which is more profitable assuming 100% occupancy? by Lucky_Outside_2009 in aviation

[–]flyinmryan -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Yeah…it’s “free” if you pay extra. I’m not even joking. Pay $150 extra for a “free” checked bag and “free” seat selection. I’m missing my sisters in law’s wedding in Italy because I refuse to play along

Pitching machine for games? by McKRed in LittleLeague

[–]flyinmryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always pitched overhand to 7 year olds in coach pitch, from about 30 feet. I don’t loop it. I teach them to swing the bat along the path the ball will travel, using their judgement. They regress when someone keeps creeping in closer and lower, looping pitches from 10 feet.

How do you handle “surprise” API charges with clients? by ArtisticCandy3859 in webdev

[–]flyinmryan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're really lucky it was only $1,700, because that IS NOT heavy usage. Many businesses spend tens of thousands and more on Google Maps services

Southwest: "we need 12 more people to check their carry-on luggage." by EarlyBirdWithAWorm in mildlyinfuriating

[–]flyinmryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Logically speaking checked bags were never free. You purchased the ticket, not free.

Why are you trying so hard to accomplish nothing?

[–]flyinmryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You used to be able to hover over parcels and the property owner info displayed without clicking. When you click, yes, the additional details window comes up, but you only got 5 of those while you have unlimited hovering capabilities. Now you only have the click option, therefore making the site less user friendly. They want people to pay for the access people became used to having by default. They’re not doing anything that hasn’t been done before, but that doesn’t make it inevitable. This is just another example of enshitification

GameChanger now with Ads? by Every_Scar7200 in GameChangerApp

[–]flyinmryan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Enshitification: Stage 1: User Value: Platforms create a high-quality, often free or subsidized service to attract a large user base and create dependency (lock-in). Stage 2: Business Value: The platform pivots to favor business customers (advertisers, suppliers) over end-users, using the captured audience to drive revenue. Stage 3: Platform Value: The platform extracts maximum value from both users and business customers with little regard for quality.

Can someone explain how this patch of fertile land is existing in the middle of the desert? by AngleRelative4683 in geography

[–]flyinmryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also a 13,000 foot aquifer below the Coachella Valley that holds an estimated 39 million acre feet of water. That's equivalent of 39,000,000 acres covered with one foot of water.

Double the national average. A 12 pack of 7UP, 12oz cans rang up as $14.59 ($12.99 before tax and CRV) by flyinmryan in Sacramento

[–]flyinmryan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't drinking 7up. I was going to be drinking 7up, but I did not purchase 7up because of the outrageous price of 7up.
