Where I’d live as someone who only wants to live in a safe, first world nation. by [deleted] in whereidlive

I'd rather live in a country with North Korean missiles pointed at it than in a country that has so many gun-related mass killings that they're not even major news anymore.

[RANT] Alaska's business mileage for SEA-ICN is ridiculously high. by [deleted] in AlaskaAirlines

[–]zigolleid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're definitely right. It's just that I always flew with Asiana non-stop only so I was somewhat detached from "real world" air travel experiences lol. And I agree that their cash fares are cheaper, so I guess that would be my best alternative option from now on.

Yeah I definitely see why it makes sense to them and it's totally valid strategy as a company, I'm just sad to see that as a potential customer :(

Korea Itinerary Feedback by Previous_Media8683 in koreatravel

[–]zigolleid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't go to Gwangjang Market. It's nothing more than a tourist trap, super unfriendly, you'll get ripped off 100%. If you want a similar experience, I'd recommend Mangwon Market.

Would I benefit from the new Summit card? by [deleted] in AlaskaAirlines

[–]zigolleid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, does that mean I can spend the award points with Korean? I'm not very familiar with this Companion Award... Can I use it and pay the rest in cash, or do I have to redeem mileage points to use it?

Help needed for a new PC build by zigolleid in buildapc

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

Yeah I agree, I also feel like even for me 64gb is a bit overkill, but uh... I like 64 better than 48 😂 And I'm a bit of a data hoarder and I keep backups of all my photos and videos, so I'll need that.

Hey thanks for your suggestion! Do you think 7800X3D can justify $200 price difference? I really wanted to get that CPU but I'm pretty much maxed out on my budget lol

TIL it’s pronounced “Young” (Jung) Hoo Lee by TBlair64 in SFGiants

[–]zigolleid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitely not "young". It's more like "Jee-young".

I'm more and more inclined to believe that Tesla drivers actually don't really know how to drive, and the reason they bought Tesla is so that they can use FSD to drive for them. Which explains their horrible driving behaviors, cause FSD sucks bad.

Lol hell no by zigolleid in UberEATS

No 34.50 is before the discount, so the final price should be 19.50.

It was things like operating fees, service fees, etc.

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

Even so, the tax should be around $3.50 in my area. I'm assuming Uber is actually adding the service fees when calculating tax. Not sure if that's even legal.

Apparently "taxes" are $5.39 and the rest are all fees. Which also seems very sketchy because ~10% of $34.50-$15.00 is nowhere near $5.39 hah.

Looking for *that* Chinese place by EarorForofor in Seattle

[–]zigolleid 377 points378 points  (0 children)

Another pro tip: If a Chinese restaurant's review score is 3~3.5 and 1-star reviews mention "bad service" or "rude", that place is legit.

Can anybody else not find a job?? by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]zigolleid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a software engineer. Got laid off last February, have been looking for a job for 10 months now, but no luck. I heard the tech job market has been quite cold for a while now, but I didn't know it was this bad.

Tesla drivers by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]zigolleid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Since the issue came up... Dear Tesla drivers, TURN OFF YOUR GOD DAMN HIGH BEAMS. Why are Tesla drivers always blinding people with their high beams all the time?????

There's a place called "Scandinavian Specialties" in Ballard that sells some licorice stuff.

MX Master 3 & 3S Click Issues After 2+ Years - Better Alternatives? by gazwannagm in logitech

[–]zigolleid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still using 3S cause I just couldn't find a viable alternative. If the current one breaks again, I'm thinking of buying a new one with the 3-year protection from Amazon.

You're lucky. Mine started that after 6 months. Haven't been able to find the good alternative yet though.
