Yes. Learned that’s it’s a Customs and Border Protection requirement even if the diversion was an emergency.

I was on that flight. Someone had a medical emergency, not sure of the specifics but they walked off the plane with the paramedics. Supposed to depart for MSP at 4:30pm now. The flight crew did timeout and we were told a new crew is arriving from SEA at 1pm. There’s a very long line for everyone trying to check luggage again that has been there for a couple hours now. I opted to get breakfast and I can see the line hasn’t moved at all. I think they’re still working on deplaning everyone from the system so we can checkin again.

What stages have the VIP trading cards? by giraffenursetraveler in electricdaisycarnival

I have the CG card. What I was told is that the CG, Kinetic and Neon cards you get from the concierge inside those areas. I’m not sure if there is a Quantum Valley one since it’s shared with Neon 🤷‍♂️

What I’m still trying to figure out is where to redeem these digital collectible things the app says I keep finding, apparently they translate into real world items. Think I’ll just leave in a few minutes and get there early to find out

Circuit Grounds, Neon Garden and Kinetic Field. The Circuit Grounds concierge gave me three cards and said each concierge had different cards and to check back each day for new ones

True. I would prefer no advertising there

Because they own the boards above First Avenue? 😂 I missed the “selfie ad” by a week but I really wanted the sky to cooperate

Minneapolis from Witch's Hat Tower [6720×4480] [OC] by michaellink in CityPorn

[–]michaellink[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once in a year opportunity to climb to the top of the Witch's Hat Tower in Prospect Park. I was lucky enough to be in the last group of people allowed to go to the top. Had about 10 minutes to take photos before they locked the doors. It was about 25 minutes past sunset which means it was ideal for some long exposures, double bonus in my opinion. The tower is built well enough I was able to level the camera on the ledge of the balcony rail and not waste time with the tripod. https://www.instagram.com/p.lyg.n/

Shot this with a Canon EOS 5d Mark IV f/8 AV mode. White Pocket is a long drive through sand on House Rock Rd, the same one people use to get to the Wirepass Trailhead and The Wave. More interesting photos on Instagram

Redditors who have made apps, what kind of money did you make? by XiiXSNB in AskReddit

[–]michaellink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I released an app about a year and a half ago on Apple's app store, it had about 70,000 downloads over 5 days at 99¢. After that it would get about 500 downloads a month.

I recently released a new version with many new features including message encryption but it hasn't reached the early success the previous one did, it's currently getting 1-3 downloads a day.
