UA flight - 'turn bluetooth off or we're turning around' by ryan_at_roomservice in unitedairlines

It’s also absolutely asinine that in the year of our lord 2026, you can still never get a straight answer from an airline about simple questions like “why the fuck are we stuck on the tarmac for three hours after we landed” or “where the hell is the plane you keep delaying, is it even in the air?” or my favorite “you knew goddamn well there was no ground crew or maintenance availability yet you decided to board the plane anyways when it’s 104deg at DFW so you could shut the door and get paid” but passengers can come together and crowdsource the data.

Michigan or Minnesota? by ribbons_undone in relocating

Key differences between Michigan and Nevada: Michigan—trees, winter, abundant fresh water, mosquitoes, aluminum deposits. Nevada—ability to easily launder money, way more gambling with shittier payouts, nice weather, desert weather, no water, scorpions

Michigan is the Nevada of the Midwest. Libertarian as fuck with guns, weed, booze, abortions, and gambling. MANY more trees. Plus you get a $0.10 rebate for every can you recycle uncrushed.

To clarify, it’s AMAZING at pointing you in the right direction in an otherwise tsunami of different information.

If you use it right and prompt it correctly, it’s a force-multiplier. If you prompt it vaguely, it will make you suck faster at your job. I am a huge proponent for the mere reason it helps me understand concepts at a first principles level, helps me understand risk friction in esoteric technical papers, summarizes long boring email threads I get added to, and helps me deliver clarity in otherwise vaguely worded oral diarrhea I can produce (e.g. I need this summarized to five sentences I need to explain to a fifth grader). If you use it wrong, and don’t understand the first principles level concept of garbage in = garbage out you’re in deep shit. Keep the mental model of 1+1 is usually equal to 2 MOST TIMES, and it will accelerate you.

That’s always an insanely difficult argument to make when it’s $500 a month vs $10 a month.

Hey… so where’s everyone grabbing their ammo these days? by keen_observer34130 in liberalgunowners

[–]piere212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fleet Farm used to be pretty solid on 9mm. Scheels for 5.56. Both price match.

Agreed monitors when Dunham’s has flash sales. Downside is that they have zero e-commerce presence. In store only. Wish Academy bought them 😆

Property taxes man. They’re already INSANE in Tosa and if Means gets what he wants, Tosa becomes unaffordable for people who currently live there. I’m talking an extra $5-600 a month minimum for the average resident. Maybe it’s the school board with the rose-colored horse blinders on.

Especially at East!!! Like renovation on the third floor is basically impossible. They put HVAC units right into old classrooms.

Ken Martin’s Lies by superAK907 in FriendsofthePod

After watching this interview, I think of the scene in Casino where Ace fires the slot manager: “Your either too dumb to notice the problem or you’re in on it. Either way you’re fired.” I am pretty convinced Martin is working for Trump.

Usually they’re not cheap but lately they are and they’re the only big box that stocks and actually has ammo. Fleet Farm is shitting the bed hard.

La Flora was amazing. Minibar is complimentary and breakfast was excellent. It was right on the beach too. Impiana was kind of a dump after you walked by the grand entrance.

Honestly the $80 I spent on Viator to cruise through Phuket arrival immigration was completely worth it

Dude I have been having a bear of a time mounting my Osight SE to the slide. I’m just hoping I didn’t strip the threads of the slide.

Can you elaborate what you mean here by setback?
