I mean, flights in the 70’s were also about 3x more expensive than now as well. If you want free bags and treated well, you pay more for your flight, first or business class will give you all of that.

You don’t in Europe either. Flights drastically change depending on time, date, and oh if your cookies have been refreshed or not.


Trains would just do the same thing, hell they already do a similar version of it. It’s not fixed per route pricing.


They already have been doing it, and it’s just an extension of what every airline has done since de-regulation, just more granular. If anything, this will make them more money, especially when they already aren’t profitable as an airline, they are profitable because they act as a bank.


It won’t. First and best thing you can do is cancel any credit card you have with them. But people are suckers for those bonuses. Rember, Delta and all of the big US airlines are bigger banks now than actual airlines.


The third party sites will just start getting the max rate, which would effectively eliminate them. Airlines (at least in the US) aren’t making money off flights any longer anyways, it’s all off credit cards. Delta is more of a bank than an airline.


Yep, and if you have a rewards or membership number, they just will ban you. If it happens once not a big deal, couple times even, start doing it regularly though, you will get caught.


They literally will ban you for skip lagging (especially if you use any rewards type system). May save you a few bucks if you don’t use them often and don’t care, but not a great idea.


Correct. It’s trying to work around censors when there shouldn’t be any at all, and everyone should actively be rebelling against censorship.


Could be even less lethal to not have gloves at all. Kids aren’t bears, and it’s pretty terrible to compare children to wild animals.


Nah, no gloves at all is even better.


Not sure why police are needed at schools at all. I can’t think of many European schools that have armed officers at schools and they seem to have a whole lot less issues than US schools soooo.


Welcome to America. ICE just signed a multiple million dollar contract to get these to use on ‘illegal immigrants’. US tax dollars hard at work here.


Why is it so hard for people to just leave their electronics at home?


Seems like a mask and no electronics on you would be a far better solution here. Perhaps even a fancy mask celebrating the great Spooky Season holiday.


Uber is going to start implementing the same thing, so mobile Flock that you wouldn’t be able to take down.


It can’t if you leave your phone and electronics at home, which you should be anyways.


I’ve always been a fan of UniFi products. You keep the data, handle it how you will.


Even in wealthy ‘liberal’ neighborhoods they welcome them as well, because they assume they help protect them from ‘the poors’.
At this point I am just running a RSS feed aggregator on my home server, and using that to keep up on news and information. If I really want to go nuts, I just feed it into my local LLM and have it summarize the days news for me.
