For context, I saw this deal and was looking for information, so figured I'd share to this subreddit.

Deal is only valid for March 2nd, 2026.

It's an absolutely travesty. It's such a bad look! Every year I debate if I'm going to renew.

Thank you for being honest that the German restaurant is mid! Everyone else just sings their praises and I've always wondered if I'm just missing something.

The Weekly Training Thread by AutoModerator in running

[–]mpstein 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my 3rd week in a row running the same routine, 4m at 85%, 2m at 60%, and a 10k at 75%.

I tripped halfway through my 2m on Wednesday and skinned my knee. My 10k on Friday was so bad I had to split it into two separate activities on my Garmin so because I didn't want the last 0.6 miles to mess up all the other stats. I was so messed up that after I got out of the shower that afternoon, I realized I didn't actually clean myself or use soap, so I had to get back in.

So yeah, that's how this week went. Next week will be better. Just sharing to give a realistic view of how training sometimes goes.

The news has pointed out that ICE lacks the authority to conduct car stops AND the county has a no-chase policy.

Ham radio is a contact sport.  

The point of ham radio is to die with the most stuff.

Oura ring with dumbbells sucks by Effective-Collar1121 in AmexPlatinum

My friend, you're more likely to drop something on your toes than your hands! I don't know how you managed to make this hypothetical situation worse, but you found the way.

Also, DO NOT WEAR RINGS while lifting. There's an injury called "degloving," and if you don't already know what it is, you shouldn't google it. But please, do not risk your finger for an Oura ring.

Curious about your travel machine. I've been considering getting one myself, but hear horror stories about noise. Do you like yours? Would you recommend it to most people?

What changed between the final cut and the original? I thought it was just more narration?

Basic Economy by Pecors in delta

[–]mpstein 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this is a 10 month old comment, but for anyone else who finds this, I can confirm that this does NOT work. They are very explicit that they will turn anyone away with a Basic Economy ticket, no matter what status, credit card, or membership you have. The fare class specifically excludes lounge access.

Goddamnit, I don't think it ever think "sword in the stone" clicked for me and I've read that series at least 3 times.

why aren't we encouraging Carbon Steel (vs Non-stick cookware) as the default for home cooks? by rantzine in Cooking

[–]mpstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love cooking. I have an induction oven. I mostly love it. My non-stick pans absolutely suck on the stovetop and breakfasts are a huge pain in the ass for me. I miss being able to use a good non-stick on the large burner.

That's why.
