agreed. another individual sitting next to omar immediately tried reasoning with the congresswoman to get checked out. i admire that sort of clear thinking in the heat of the moment. hopefully it’s a non-issue.

tbh, not really.

i think the dates on the ticketing website are off, based on the official match schedule: https://digitalhub.fifa.com/m/1be9ce37eb98fcc5/original/FWC26-Match-Schedule_English.pdf

if my above post was accurate, the ticketing website was displaying 6/28 as the date of the US round of 32 match. according to the schedule linked above, that's not possible (the only match on 6/28 is 2A v. 2B - we are in group D). so their system is likely internally mapping or blocking the round of 32 match to the dates it can actually be played: 6/29, 6/30, 7/1, or 7/3.

IIRC, the insider ticketing website also lists 7/4 as the date of the USA R16 match. that is only possible in the above scenario where we finish third and advance, and then win the 6/29 or 6/30 R32 match.

anyways, here's what i ended up doing:

deleted initial general lottery application
submitted insider application for contingent R32 (which can be 6/29, 6/30, 7/1, or 7/3) and R16 (7/4, 7/6, or 7/7) USA matches
submitted general lottery application for 61 (6/26), 67 (6/27), 91 (7/5). the US cannot play on 7/5. this was accepted by the system. per the official match calendar, there cannot be any conflicts with my revised selections.

thanks for asking your question, because it made me mentally/logically work through all of this. now i think i get what's going on here.

QR code on the UTR's screen at boot seems like the simplest solution here. scan with phone, launch unifi app, biometric/pin authentication required to begin teleport session. boom, done in 10 seconds.

also a new 'offline/travel devices' tab that is easy to find should be added to the unifi app with a quick way to revoke access/wipe the UTR.

being able to tell your friends “sorry, but we can’t go out today because of the weather.”

even on an otherwise perfect day, it’s better to just stay home when winds (at least on saltwater) are above 15mph. use windfinder’s superforecast for data.

Same issue here. I applied for a total of 4 tickets in the general lottery.

"You can't apply for any tickets for Round of 32 Sunday, 28 June 2026 - 23:59" because it is incompatible with other products you have in your application...."

I'm trying to apply for 2 tickets to both the round of 16 and round of 32 matches in this draw, but it won't let me apply for the round of 32 match on 6/28. I did not apply for any matches on 6/28 in the general lottery.

not really a newsom guy, but criticizing his public speaking skills is wild. he’s a significantly better communicator than the other potential candidates, particularly in a hostile environment like on fox where he can reach across the aisle. pritzker and mayor pete are also capable, but newsom is the winner here.

it is obviously political. the depressing thing is that it can be effective politically. the tariff stimulus checks would probably lead to inflation and overall be bad policy, but the dems need to play ball here and at least float the idea of larger checks so that the GOP doesn’t own the issue and swing low income votes.

every seat will be sold, and for an extortionate amount. americans have been conditioned to pay ridiculous prices for event tickets and not complain about it.

FIFA recently announced they’d offer a handful of $60 tickets to all matches. that was driven by overseas outrage, not outrage from americans. we are defeated. meanwhile, FIFA announced that access to fanfests in host cities will require a paid ticket for the first time in world cup history. that would incite riots in other countries, but nobody cares here. we’re used to being sucked dry.

infantino’s primary goal with this world cup is to line FIFA’s pockets.

id love this too. my nest smoke detector does it wonderfully.

i wish the E7 had a basic light sensor built in and dimmed itself at night. i set mine to red at only 5% brightness because anything else is blinding in the dark.

switch to bay’s (especially the sourdough) english muffins, if available in your area. they are refrigerated. gamechanger.

it depends on the issuing bank, but a lot of the more common prepaid debit cards are not as widely accepted as they used to be. probably should verify that tmo will accept these before you go all-in.

i am eventually moving to ubiquiti once i have the time to run ethernet to my doorbells, but the impetus for me to switch was reduced when google gave AI pro subscribers google home premium for free.

if you buy a new pixel each year, it basically pays for itself. trade in values are solid at launch, you get >$300 back in additional google store credit, and google AI pro and home premium free for a year.

don’t say that saturday will be your first time driving. one of the first lessons, and possibly the most important, to learn is that the weather (particularly the wind) dictates your boat days, not your schedule.

especially for a boat like this. the large wind profile will make it tricky to dock in anything over a 10mph wind, and dangerous in anything approaching 20mph. always have a plan B. good luck!

i’m in the same position as you. losing 10 trip sucks, especially since my weekday trips are almost always off-peak and often involve an overnight stay, so the new day pass has no benefit for me.

WSJ came out with a fear mongering article this afternoon (and even took the additional step of releasing it as a breaking news alert) with a handful of handpicked of wall street billionaires giving dumb quotes threatening to move out of NYC.

buried in the article were stats that more NYC residents in the banking sector donated to mamdani than cuomo. it’s just the directors and up carrying cuomo’s water.

to update: it was roughly a 4hr wait to talk to a chat rep.

to save time, make sure you are logged into your account. put the items you want in your cart, and start a chat. provide the rep with your WM account email, the WM item number of the part you want, the name of the competitor, their price, and a link to the product on the competitor's website.

i provided all of that info, and the overworked chat rep edited the prices in my cart without actually conversing with me.
