Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

Please tell me where you lived at in Pittsburgh.

Carnegie Mellon, so I spent most of my time in Oakland, Shadyside, and Squirrel Hill. I went all over the city while I was there. I also lived in Shadyside for a couple months a few years after school doing some contract work, which was right before I moved to the Bay Area.

and I like it so much here in the Bay Area that I actually do own property.

fishmech posting about trains was better than this.

trains rule, there can be no bad posting about trains

I rode a train today and it was fun and got me to where I wanted to go inexpensively and with a minimum of fuss. (light rail is trains, right?)

Well, they want you to buy cars more often so it's sort of win / win from their perspective.

I just started a job at a museum in SF so now I wear slacks and ties and have meeting about delegating tasks but tbf it's nice to work somewhere where your decisions matter and I realized defining myself by not having to dress up is loving dumb I just wanted to never work for a lovely corporation but I'm happy to dress up as management for a museum

excuse me tablet-like

also i had a mazda 3 rental in LA last weekend and on the main menu it had 5 items, one of which did nothing except tell you to stop by your Friendly Mazda Dealer and purchase a nav module (instead of just hiding that item entirely). also there didnt appear to be any way to shut off that screen so if the car was on, it was too

that screen shows a compass and lat/long in my car without the nav card. nav is just an Sd card u plug in, which inexplicably costs $400. all the hardware it needs is there already. and there is an option in settings to turn off the screen entirely.

Ah, so you're wealthy and your life, experiences, and predilections are meaningless for 99% of Americans.

If I were wealthy enough to buy property in Manhattan I'm sure I'd love it there.

God's own truth: if Batman were to exist, he would absolutely live in Silicon Valley, because that's where you get the highest concentration of billionaires who imagine themselves ubermenschen who would also be likely to dress up in animal costumes and try to save women from brutes.

There's so little crime in Mountain View that they'd have to go over to Oakland or something, though.

lol no, silicon valley nerds would pay someone else to do it on their behalf. crowdsourced vigilanteism

why would they run around putting themselves in danger when they can create an app service that dispatches poor people to go do it for them in exchange for a 60% cut of the reward
