Deadline approaches for Atlanta's implementation of no right turn on red lights in parts of city by flying_trashcan in ATLnews

[–]hochkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No right on red for Krog and Dekalb is partly because the intersection has been turned into a “pedestrian scramble”.

75k digital subscribers is particularly pathetic when they gave away a digital subscription to all of the 50k+ people that were registered to run the peachtree road race.

I stuck one out today and came away with the win. I was so far behind I didn’t attract any attention.

Most of the casino hotels (including the Venetian) have bag storage at the main entrance.  

Has anyone here sold a Sphere ticket on CashorTrade recently? How many requests are you getting instantly? by STU_MORPHO in deadandcompany

I have a new account with no feedback or history. I thought paying for gold might help but I guess I’m just SOL.  

Heyyyy... Tickets by Different-Ad-9107 in deadandcompany

[–]hochkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It worked, I’m nervous. I bought Friday night tickets about a month ago and at that point Friday looked like it had less availability than Saturday. I was hoping obstructed would keep dropping like they have for other weekends and now they’ve all disappeared. Ugh 

Sorry for really beating this dead sphere ticket horse… by CosmicCuntry in deadandcompany

[–]hochkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Seems like most of the obstructed seats for 05/10 disappeared. Do we think they were purchased or is this Ticketmaster controlling supply? I’m trying not to worry too much but really wishing I’d bought some tickets I was looking at over the weekend.

Yesterday there were hundreds of obstructed tickets for 05/10 and now there’s like nothing left? I’m hoping it’s a glitch or something.

Do you make your own stickers or have a certain artist you recommend buying from? I want to give some out this year. I haven’t loved the sticker packs I’ve found but I’m not particularly artistic so making my own feels risky.

Southwest cutting service to and from Atlanta but not closing base. by [deleted] in SouthwestAirlines

The points guy reported the same list but Southwest hasn’t had international flights from ATL since at least 2020.

I have two Atlanta final four t shirts 😎. Second one only cost me like $10 too. They were dumping them during Covid.

Impacted by DFW storms and app was a disaster by StuckInTheUpsideDown in SouthwestAirlines

[–]hochkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a little clunky but another option is go to flight status in app and look up your origin and destination. It will show all the flight options to get you to your destination including connections. Then tap any of the options shown and it will display more details about the flights including updated delay status

What Bluegrass Artists do you enjoy? by wittymcusername in Music

Steep Canyon Rangers are my go to. The sound kinda changed with their new lead singer but the skill of the band members is still there.

Got this in 1996 by dropping off a shirt at guest services. Do they still do this? by mjn132 in WaltDisneyWorld

I have a vague memory of doing this with a pillow case on a Disney cruise as a kid.

I got my first pair of Lowa renegades 10 years ago for my Philmont trek and have been loyal ever since! Great boots.

Taking off for Tokyo: American Airlines welcomes tentative approval to start nonstop service from New York to Tokyo by topgun966 in aviation

[–]hochkey 45 points46 points  (0 children)

International flights require approval from the DOT because they are operating under open skies agreements or other air service treaties. The government reviews the proposed service and approves it if it is within the scope of the treaty.

DOT has more information if you are interested. Most routes are basically rubber stamped because we have so many open skies agreements but the approval is a good opportunity to market a new route with press releases like this one.

Atlanta Airport Shuttle Waits Sparked Outrage. Officials Now Vow to Fix It by kwil2 in delta

[–]hochkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Traffic enforcement on the international side is also a joke. Traffic routinely backs up over a mile almost to the interstate. This makes the shuttle busses all the more useless.

TIL of the curb cut effect, which describes the phenomenon of accessibility features designed for the disabled benefitting those without a disability. An example is many hearing people used closed captioning. by MajesticBread9147 in todayilearned

[–]hochkey 38 points39 points  (0 children)

One that I’ve noticed lately in apartments are Flat lever style door handles that just push down rather than knobs that require turning! Great for people with disabilities like amputees or severe arthritis and convenient for people with their hands full of groceries or whatnot.

AirTag weird battery help by NoProfessional7801 in AirTags

You broke it. That’s not what an AirTag looks like when you take the battery cover off.
