This needed a fucking ruling?!

Nah. If Ted Cruz called the same state home as I do, I’d self deport.

If you look on Google Maps, there’s this super convenient line of trees that goes from the next large city north-ish of my town to the largest city in the state, south of me. It runs right through my town. If you go looking in that line of trees, you’ll find abandoned train tracks.

There was a day when someone (not me, I’m not that old) could get on a train in my town and go to virtually any medium to large city. Now, we can’t even get funding to connect the walking trail segments that parallel portions of those abandoned tracks between towns.

Here in my state, there’s no inspections. You can drive your car with the frame cracked in half. As long as the plate has up-to-date stickers, you’re good fam.

Can confirm, I find myself looking for a solution every few weeks.

Sorry to necro, but have you found/made a working Imagus sieve for Lemmy? I’ve been trying without luck for months.

It will be as long as you needed.

They aren’t supposed to be good. Watch the WAN show from this week, they’re memeing on MKBHD’s wallpaper app launch.

There has never been a proven case of juice jacking, anywhere, ever.

34 checking in.

Oh man, I want that back.

I desperately want SpaceX to have some competition. Competition drives innovation up and prices down.

But at the same time, I kind of want this to be a colossal enough failure that they can’t deny that this thing isn’t ready.

That was way better than it had any right to be.

Shhh, Spirit Airlines is listening.

Counterpoint.

I have a piece of luggage that I love. It is, to within an inch in each dimension, as big as any airline I fly will let on as carry-on (I’ve seen people carry on larger, but mine is within the stated limits). I can carry it fully packed to the point of nearly bursting, and have done so when one of the wheels was broken.

But it has wheels, so if they’re functioning, why shouldn’t I use them?

Bean there, done that.

No, I’m not jelly. Or green, I’ve been here a year!

Eh. Bean there, done that.

So, first, you can’t be much more confident than an honest mistake. I didn’t even know I was in the wrong group.

Second, they weren’t reading my phone. You turn your phone face down to scan the QR code. They literally can’t read it like that. The system tells them where you are supposed to be, including boarding group. If they’re not trying to put you where you’re supposed to be, they’re probably tired of dealing with people like you.

Lastly, people fucking up the system by cutting in line are a part of why it takes so long to board. If you want to board earlier, man up and pay for a premium ticket.

Regarding your first tip, I’m not sure where you’re flying, but I fly around the US for work, and they absolutely will send you to the back of the line if you try to board in the wrong spot. Happened to me once recently by accident, got two flights and their boarding groups mixed up. They weren’t rude about it or anything, but they were not going to let me on before my group.
