That’s only really done now for nonrevenue (employee) travel and changes in existing itineraries (trying to get an earlier flight, getting rebooked to a full flight because you missed your connection and that’s the next one, etc)
Some flights during certain seasons (spring break in Florida, for example) are so full that you hardly stand a chance of getting on, and of course that’s the airlines’ fault
The principle, yeah. The fact that it’s 50 cents keeps it mild though
Well, half of it is a “carrier interface charge” - basically, you’re paying to buy online. Fees are taxed differently, but they have to be optional. If you buy at an airport, they don’t charge it.
That’s Frontier for ya. The Ryanair of the US
Medium is the singular, for those not aware
Similarly, data is also the plural for datum
This sounds like the work of a developer. If you want to take a plot of land and sell it for $2x/m², it’s entirely possible… But it may take $3x/m² worth of improvements if you’re not careful.
Frankly, if you have to ask these kinds of questions Lemmy is not the place to get the answers. You can get a college degree in this kind of thing, and it seems like you’d need to start at the very basic level.
That’s a basic economics thing that doesn’t have an easy answer. But basically, at lower prices, people generally demand a higher quantity of something. Raise the price, and people start to think twice and consider other options. Supply is the opposite: at a higher price, more of a product will be produced (or in the case of pre-owned land, landowners are more likely to cash out). At lower prices, people won’t bother.
So in the case of land, price is affected by what people want, but also what’s available. If there is a lot of open space and that’s what everyone wants, groovy! But if people want limited amounts of tree land, prices are going to skyrocket for that and people will look at open land as an alternative.
You’re putting your priority of beauty on others, who seem to prioritize function if they do hobby farming (in which case, trees could get in the way of whatever they’re trying to do with the land)
Neither preference is wrong. In theory prices should reflect supply and demand.
normies
bragging with Windows supremacy
I don’t think that’s as common as you think it is. Most Windows users see Windows as part of the computer, a tool to get the job done. As a DIY’er (basically a tool normie) I don’t brag about the supremacy of my Kobalt tools, I just drill the damn hole
Ditto. I’d have so few friends, not to mention my wife and daughter (no males in the house other than me) so things would be pretty confusingly lonely, pretty quick!
At least OP was pretty clear that all people of the opposite sex were to have disappeared so I can still have my dog.
But like sex and gender are social constructs
Honest response here, no hate intended: I thought gender was a social construct but sex is biological?
I don’t mind driving, and I’m such a weirdo about paying/tipping when I can do something myself. I can probably count on one hand how many times I’ve had food delivered in the last decade
Very similar time frame for me… I always thought that preps were more of an upper-class group. Maybe there’s a little overlap between those two groups though.
From my perspective, that’s “our” second civil war 😐
2 weeks down, 206 to go
Apparently that was 100% Joe Biden 🙄
Every other Nintendo console shakes things up pretty massively, the next one is mostly a horsepower upgrade with no major innovation
NES / SNES (home console gaming in general)
N64 / GameCube (viable 3D graphics)
Wii / Wii U (much different control. I have to admit I never really touched the Wii U but it follows the pattern of missing the major hype)
Switch / Switch 2 (mixing an honest console with honest portability)
For me it’s some kind of cartoon with the caption “Best comic funny 🤣” and sometimes “funny short film” (even though it’s a picture)
Like, Meta has to know this is happening. Do they really think this is what will keep their userbase? And nobody would think it’s just a little weird?
Or like… Get a job as a cook on a ship. Keep the beer for yourself
Let me know when Samsung software stops sucking and then we’ll talk.
No, if you find a flight you like and, instead of putting your credit card information right there, you drive to the airport, pay for parking, wait in line at the ticket counter, tell the agent you want to buy that itinerary you just found online, argue with them when they say they can’t/won’t so it because it’s freaking Frontier, pay for your ticket, walk 10 minutes back to your car in the parking ramp, pay for your hour of parking, and drive home.
Probably not worth it for a single person/purchase, but if it’s charged per person, per direction (I think it is but not sure) and you’re paying for your whole family it may be worth it.
