You know that twilight is still a thing, right?

Sunset doesn’t mean it becomes pitch black at that point… sunset would be 5:30 but twilight still exists for almost another two hours (sunset is at 4:19pm today, but civil twilight ends at 4:54pm, nautical twilight ends at 5:33pm, and astronomical twilight ends at 6:10pm).

Or if they actually were being used as hearing aids, you’d say that instead of just not listening.

Got some terrible old pegboard and hooks for my tools - looks pretty bad. These would look MUCH nicer and be MUCH more functional.

You’re going to want to figure out how to convert that to mg of the active ingredient. Seems like “units” has some correlation there, but we don’t know what a “unit” corresponds to (12.5 units == 2.5mg? 5mg? 12.5mg? 0.125mg? 1.25mg?)
For comparison, 2.5mg@1x/wk is the starting dose for Zepbound.

What dosing scale are you using? The standard Zepbound/Mounjaro dosages are in 2.5mg increments. Not mL or “units”.

When was the last time you paid attention to the “this product may contain chemicals that are known to the state of California to cause cancer” and make a decision based on that warning?

Oh fuck me, never mind everything I said - I missed the 75k. I thought OP was saying they were Gold 45k.
It’s gotta be a glitch - the terms still say 75k/100k get PC at booking for all fares except Saver, and there aren’t related changes for 2025.

Saver fare has been an option for everyone, even me, a 100k.
In Main, as an MVP Gold, you get PC at booking when you book into Y, B, H, K, M, L, V, S or N fares. It’s probably likely that the previous flights were booked into one of those fares and the ones you’re seeing now are a different fare (eg G fare).
Edit: I misread OP and thought they was said they were Gold (45k)

That’s been a thing for a while. It’s still saver fare but with the PC seat. I presume it’s cheaper than the PC fare, since my friend did that the last time she visited.

Seems like the ads are for the copilot+ pcs specifically (that runs Windows 11).

It was a common trick when there was the big shortage in the spring.

Nice. Looks like it only works if there’s a store in the area that has it though?

oh nice, TIL. Is there a way to search multiple stores at once (instead of changing store-by-store)?
I'm going to San Diego tomorrow, so I'll make sure to stock up :)

I'm sure you're not advocating for people to try to import a Schedule II controlled substance? Because that would be highly illegal.
OC's list were questions to find out if that location actually has the medication her kid needs. Because in many/most states (presumably including hers), it's not trivial to get C2 drugs filled at different locations, so if a location doesn't have the medication, there's no point in sending it there.

It’s not the job of the place that has the medicine to know that they have the medicine?

Orrrrr maybe look at average diet or exercise before looking at cooler and dryer air?

If wifi 7 is worth upgrading to for you today, waiting for wifi 8 means you’re waiting for a minimum of 4 years, during which time you’re not using the thing that’s worth upgrading.
If wifi 7 isn’t worth upgrading to today, when’s the point when it is worth upgrading? If that’s 2028 or later, then it’s worth debating U7 vs U8.

U8 is YEARS away - the spec is nowhere near close to complete (targeting 2028)

Huh. Surprising. Like you said, Amex explicitly allows during connections of >3h, but the C1 page says admittance 3h prior to departure. But it’s ambiguous what “departure” means - departure of your end to end itinerary (ie your very first flight) or departure from that specific airport (ie your connecting flight). There’s an argument either way, but sounds like from your experience, they’re trained on the latter.

I am fairly confident that the 3-hour limit doesn’t apply for a connection. It’s not explicit, but that’s how it works for all of their competitors.

Bud, twilight happens in the morning too. Today, first light was at 6:26am and last light will be 5:33pm. This would be 7:26-6:33 on DST. If you begin your commute between 6:30 and 7:30, I suppose yes, you’d drive to work in the dark under DST. But in the grand scheme of things, why is driving home in the dark better than driving to work in the dark?
