criticon@lemmy.cato Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•When Americans Fly Economy, They're Actually Paying for Someone Else to Fly PrivateEnglish0·2 months agoIt makes sense if you are going to Atlanta or Orlando, not if you are just connecting somewhere else
Don’t get me wrong, I love trains and I’d love to see a big network of high speed trains

criticon@lemmy.cato Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•When Americans Fly Economy, They're Actually Paying for Someone Else to Fly PrivateEnglish0·2 months agoHow many are a final destination? Orlando is a big hub for planes coming from South America and Atlanta y the biggest US hub, so probably a lot of people flying that route are connecting and wouldn’t make a lot of sense to get a plane ticket and then a train and then another flight

Mostly is because it’s mixed for 5.1
The center channel takes care of most of the dialog and the rest is distributed to 4 satellite (and usually smaller) speakers but when it’s down sampled to stereo everything has the same level
criticon@lemmy.cato Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Very positively surprised by how seamless the switch from Windows wasEnglish0·4 months agoCan’t you just upgrade to the next release? (It’s been more than 10 years since I installed/used Ubuntu)
criticon@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockersEnglish0·4 months agoI had to allow a bunch of stuff in pihole because I wasn’t able to use Google flights or Google News and some functions in Gmail, the sites never finished loading
Not anymore, it stopped working a while ago
criticon@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a movie that "looks like" it would suck, but actually is well written and acted and a good time?0·4 months agoThe second one is more generic, but I agree with the first one
My PC didn’t support boot from CD, so I had to use about 6 WinXP floppies just to load the necessary drives to install from the CD. Good times
I think we also had the Win 95 and 98 installallers somewhere although I learned how to do it when upgrading from 98 to ME

criticon@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Um, It Turns Out No One at the Ports Is Collecting Trump’s Tariffs0·6 months agoMy sister works in customs for a company in Mexico and they are definitely paying tariffs. They need to get a certificate for stuff that is covered under USMECA and iron parts pay 25% on top of any other tariffs. They have an office close to the border that checks which tariffs are in effect at that time because the official publication can’t keep up
it’s because most larger concert halls in the USA and the ticket service they use online are owned by the most evil fucking corporation and I am fucking sick of it.
Do you realize AXS is not Ticketmaster/Live Nation?
I’m not defending them but they are different corporations
criticon@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•US immigration officials look to expand social media data collection0·7 months agoWhen you fill DS-160 to apply for a visa you have to fill in your social media handles. Is this for those on ESTA?
For a while I had House LANister and a few neighbors joined with GoT names. We all changed to more standard names after the disappointing finale
Now I have “this is the ATT router” that I changed the name to do some debugging (I wasn’t sure which one was my own router since I run it as a bridge) and recently another neighbor changed theirs to “and my xFinity”
