I've only flow Southwest a couple times, but that is basically it. Usually someone comes in and places items on the other two seats in a row. They're not actually reserving them, they're just trying to cause enough of a fuss

I agree, and this is definitely not a solution, but have you tried using the genre codes to look through more targeted genres? I saw it originally somewhere else, but it looks like there is https://www.netflix-codes.com/ th

What are you using to measure this? (I'm sure I could do my own research, but was more curious since it seems like you've already got a setup.)

Maybe they're more asking for the whole breadth of opinions available from the HN community?

This is kind of a tangent from the article, but I wonder if this also holds for watching cute/small animals? My dentist has TVs that are almost directly above the dentist chair (so front and center when you are reclined, but not in a p

> 2 to 4x speed Wow, how do you even process it at that speed? I normally listen at 1.2x, but feel like if I hit 1.5x, maybe 1.8x if it is a really slow narrator, I'm maxing out. I mainly am listening to it while I'm running th

Huh, in my head I was reading it 'twit-text' (this is not meant to be a pejorative comment), but I guess that is ascribing it another 't' where there isn't one

This is an interesting article (list-icle? It is pretty short and aggregate list like). It is from 2022 and mainly focuses on pandemic times, so I'd be curious to see what these trends look like compared to pre/post pandemic. I&#x

Not trying to argue, more just curious, what drugs are you referring to with this comment?

So I agree with all of this, but will add we do know the long-term effects of obesity, diabetes and a host of the other things it is showing some potential signs of helping with. And because of the serious damage being done by those issue

I feel like something must have changed, because when we went to cancel ours on a previous car ~3 years ago it was a long-ish process, but only because they kept offering more and more discounts until it was essentially free. A couple month

This is an interesting take, that I think might hold some water. With a budget of $59 million (according to wikipedia), they are definitely a small entity in the grand scheme of the US Government. Big enough to run their reports, but not bi

But for that scenario you normally still get booked on a later flight plus the vouchers, as measly as the value of those might be.

>It could be that US investors are less willing to invest in co-ops. But then, why? Is there something about them that makes them less competitive? My, admittedly uninformed, guess would be it has to do with 1) there are more worker prot

Yeah, I had to do a double take at that... Or maybe we both somehow missed an episode. I will say it has the americana filling of violence/gore though (if gore is the right word for the boat scenes).

As an aside, the audiobook version of this is really well done. You'll probably get more out of the actual book, but I really enjoyed having this on my long runs.

I know it has something like 30 episodes, so I had to look; it appears to only cover the first book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-Body .

Do you not have 120v or is your 120v not stable enough? Because from the site it looks like it works with both 120v and 240v: > Designed to fit inside most standard countertops and work seamlessly with 120V or 240V connections.
