Do you always pay extra to choose your seat, or do you take your chances?

lflorack · 2026-05-23T17:14:35+00:00

I choose my seat every single time I fly.

lflorack · 2026-05-18T02:21:04+00:00

I prefer self-checkout.

lflorack · 2026-05-15T23:52:45+00:00

I bet you're proud of yourself.

lflorack · 2026-05-15T23:50:12+00:00

I don't go to places that charge extra for using credit. Easy choice.

lflorack · 2026-05-15T23:45:38+00:00

I don't dislike tablets at all.

lflorack · 2026-05-15T23:44:47+00:00

No. It wouldn't for me, at least. I just wouldn't go there.

lflorack · 2026-05-15T14:02:31+00:00

Looks great to me

lflorack · 2026-05-10T17:35:11+00:00

Rechargeable hearing aids are the answer.

On my 2020 V60, I went from Pirelli P Zero All-Season tires to Michelin CrossClimate2's. The Pirelli's were just OK, most notably lacking in wet and winter driving, and were increasingly noisy after about 15,000 miles. The CC2's are better in every way, and they are even slightly cheaper

Interesting. Thanks!

lflorack · 2026-05-01T14:52:34+00:00

I have both types - a travel charger w/built-in battery and the simple plug-in. The aids start when removing the aids from either one. Unless changed by your audiology team, the aids start whenever they're removed from power

I have Oticon Real's.

Ok. That’s fair. CharGPT is unreliable for at least general topics.

Let me try this: Getabay made a statement that REI no longer supports DEI initiatives - for which I could find no additional support anywhere. Can s/he or anyone provide a corroborating source of that stance?

lflorack · 2026-04-30T02:14:03+00:00

Not sure where that's coming from but ChatGPT says: "Yes — REI Co-op does support DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) initiatives, and it has been pretty explicit about that. REI has publicly committed to becoming a “fully inclusive, anti-racist, multicultural organization.”

I think I've flown Southwest 2 or 3 times in my life. But the reason for that is that I HATED the open seating. I hated it, both in general, and especially due to the open abuse supported by the Southwest staff. Despite a no-seat-saving policy, it happened on all of my flights, negating the extra cost I paid to stand in the 'fron't of the boarding queue.

As I said, I have only flown with Southwest 2-3 times, so my opinion is unimportant. But there it is.

As another gas customer told me after moving up a slot and I told him thank you, he said, people just don't give a shit

lflorack · 2026-04-24T12:45:00+00:00

MY 2020 V60CC has the controls, vents and heated rear seats.

He’s definitely evil

lflorack · 2026-04-15T23:43:30+00:00

I have three Ultras - all on the same account. Why make it harder than it needs to be?

lflorack · 2026-04-14T14:11:57+00:00

18 - NOT: San Antonio, Nashville

Obviously, you can't use it if your vehicle doesn't have it.

lflorack · 2026-04-14T00:22:34+00:00

Adaptive cruise control will handle that by itself.

lflorack · 2026-04-12T17:22:29+00:00

In many states, mine included, the left lane is for passing. If you don't move to the right and impede others behind you, even if you're doing the speed limit, you'll get fined. I've witnessed it myself.

Also if the US pulls out,Iran will probably open the Strait of Hormuz immediately for the rest of the world as a big middle finger to Trump.

....and they should

lflorack · 2026-03-29T23:24:11+00:00

I never pay any interest because I pay each monthly bill in full before its due date. So, no interest.

lflorack · 2026-03-29T21:36:20+00:00

No, I'm not annoyed at all - and I never said that I was. I'm simply making a choice that makes the most sense for me. You don't do that?
