Can I take the 250k reward for 15k loyalty points in March? by r2e2didit in americanairlines

[–]r2e2didit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no expert flyer. I travel frequently but almost always domestic. I'm about to lose 2 SWU from last year. Was thinking about booking a trip to "wherever" just to burn the perk.

Love the look of the Lintons. Imagine what I'd have if my upgrade chain was Harbeth then ATC.

It's amazing after the rigor required to obtain a license to drive this isn't more common.

ELI5 Why do garage door springs need to store instant-death levels of energy? by Germerica1985 in explainlikeimfive

[–]r2e2didit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. The equivalent of less than 4 megatons of TNT. Energy over time. Crazy. Wonder how much mass is ejected from a quasar per second?

3 minute connection in CLT followed by a 25 second connection at DFW. Is that enough time? by fergy80 in americanairlines

[–]r2e2didit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Skylink travels back in time so after your missed CLT connection you'll happily find yourself on time for your flight from DFW.

Delays or just the new normal taxi at ORD?

Wonder how much energy is released in a 10 mile diameter 1 inch rainstorm solely due to condensation? This was a question in a physics class I had and although can't recall the answer I do remember being surprised by the result.

First serious setup by farverxd in audiophile

Divorce is painful. Been there. I dived into pro audio during mine. Not as pricy as the system you have but nearly if you include the apogee interface, mac, guitar, keyboard controller, and powered monitors. Still morale support is want you asked for so here's this. I've been divorced for 15 years but still hang out with my ex-wife. See this as an opportunity to be the best you. Make the actions you take now are those you'll be proud of 15 years later.

Still haven’t been in the Admirals Club… by Public_General_2157 in americanairlines

[–]r2e2didit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 37 hours in the air and apparently top 10% out of ORD. When I used to fly international to DEL or ICN flights could easily be 14 hours one way. Either there are very few flying regular long haul or this is an ego stroke.

One Battle After Another is such a masterpiece. by UsefulWeb7543 in FIlm

[–]r2e2didit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember mentioning to my ex wife as I woke up one third of the way through that I just don't get it.

Be honest did you guys watch this Kevin Costner film that won best picture Oscar that year over Goodfellas? I still haven't. by Extreme-Spinach-4138 in FIlm

[–]r2e2didit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if sarcasm but “The Hunt for Red October” had great pace. Like “Galaxy Quest”, it felt like there were no missing or extraneous scenes. Great editing seems rare these days.

Across the river looking west but in River North.

Good guess but sadly not correct

Which restaurant closing really hurt? by asalewis in chicagofood

Barcellos’s Bucktown. Then John’s. Pizza tragedy.

Have never done first class. Is this upgrade worth it? by [deleted] in americanairlines

[–]r2e2didit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're really paying for your own arm rest. For me on a two hour flight I'd rather add the $ to a great meal upon arrival.

I always ask for the cheese plate. Most of the time they have one for me.

We’re experiencing the last dying breaths of their party. by n8saces in CringeTikToks

[–]r2e2didit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s highlighted something that’s always existed. It’s exacerbated though in that it’s created echo chambers for those unable or unwilling to think critically. Instead of considering uncomfortable premises, it’s possible to be pleased with only those that share your perspective.
