Right. We're talking about the same thing. Some people want to save money going to the intermediate stops. If you want to go to X, the flight A->X is $1000, or A->X->B is $700. People are saying you should be able to go on the

Money. You just said that you're happy with limitations if you can save some money. The article is about them imposing limitations so that you cannot get a cheaper flight. They will set the price and the route, and you do it. Sure you

The fact that genital mutilation still happens today, and people still defend it as the right thing to do, is astounding. It is a bit of skin that is used to protect and moisten sexual organs. I think it's obvious to anyone that they&

I hate graphical IDES because of how slow they are * look through menu items * click something * everything is frozen for 5 seconds, fan start whirring. Yeah I know. Junk my computer, get a new one, I'll pass.

Keen to hear from render about this. I just joined render and so I want to know what might cause them to do this. Always happy to hear alternative suggestions but I really just love being able to git push and leave it to CI to deploy easily
