I love the US DOT's logo. Best Government logo? And no, the screaming mad eagle coming to get you for copying DVDs doesn't beat it.

Anders posted:Unless Bytedance pulls out of the US market because it's "only" 10% of their user base and they'd still be a very profitable company Only 10% of user base but I wonder home much ad revenue that 10% generates compared to the rest of the 90%?

Toxic Mental posted:It's a divestment bill for tiktok and nothing else, no functionality will change for the users, and moving to put it into US-controlled interests isn't going to ever be challenged in court. This. The funniest part of the whole saga was when TikTolkien asked its users to contact Congress, resulting in what might be the biggest backfire I've ever witnessed.

Dapper_Swindler posted:i mean i agree, the issue is the GOP can't really change without pain, if they start heading toward the center, they have to do it all almost all their issues and they will lose ALOT of chuds and it will take them a couple cycles to make new inroads and connections and poo poo. basicaly mid term pain for theoretical long term benefits. Let them have a few decades of “the republican candidate is talking about some stupid immigration plan instead of just saying ‘deport them all!’ I may as well vote for the Democrat!” And then the Washington Post can run it as a headline. Only seems fair.

If you're in public, you're expected to pay for stuff. You can't really just... be out. Our consumer protections are a joke without a punchline.

maybe people should ride more trains if planes suck sooo bad. also demand more rails and better rails so passenger / civian trains dont have to park to the side for biz/commercial trains. also demand their work gives even more vacation hours and days so people are okay with the time sink of trains.

Alan_Shore posted:Holy poo poo, you guys don't have this already? We had a flight delayed 12 hours and got $200ea in vouchers because my wife is a pro traveler and knows how to enter complaints and get compensation. They try to gently caress you otherwise. Budget airlines like Spirit and Frontier straight up gently caress you over just out of spite. edit: I work in transportation and was skeptical of how well "Mayor Pete" would perform as the transportation secretary. He's been really great at implementing policy, is good at dealing with media, and seems legitimately informed on loving everything. Really good dude.

I once flew to Toronto on Air Canada for work. My flight was delayed a few hours and I missed a connecting flight. I, an American, was shocked when I was told I would receive a check in the mail for like $400 for a flight I didn’t pay for in the first place because the airline hosed up.

I had a flight delayed for like 4 or 5 hours and when I complained they gave some BS answer and a couple hundred miles which probably added up to like 10 bucks

Pot Smoke Phoenix posted:Welcome to the Rush page! I know it's not this page but wanted to say there was one time my company funded an outing after work for the entire tech branch of the company and a coworker friend and I decided to abuse the in-house jukebox system there and loaded up Rush's 2112 like 4 or 5 times in a row or so. Every time other coworkers thought it was finally over, it'd just start again for the next 20 minutes. Strangely enough, that company handed out t-shirts to employees a couple of years later that looked like the 2112 album cover but with their company logo altered onto it instead. It maybe wasn't as much of a jerk move as when I used to walk through the department next to the room I worked in and would whistle just the first 4 notes of The Final Countdown. Aaaaaaaaaand 4, 3, 2, 1... wait for someone who can't stand it anymore to whistle out the next 5 notes. Alright, enough stories about me using music as a weapon. Back to laughing at Trump's goblin face.

The airline change is good but god my mental image goes to "Wait, we'd lose money? gently caress the safety requirements, send it up, it's cheaper to deal with bar PR than refunding entire planes every time we screw up!"
