Yes, the title misspelling was an intentional attempt at punnery. It's a compulsion, I'm sorry.
I might have advised
Adam R.
not to try to plan flights 4 years in advance, if asked. But he
didn't ask, and so he discovered this. I'll let Adam explain.
"I was looking at flights to a certain town in eastern Western Australia.
(I'm planning ahead for the July 2028 solar eclipse.) A
popular travel website informed me that this evening
flight across the border from Northern Territory was an
overnight flight. Yes, the time zones in Australia are
weird, with a 90-minute difference between WA and NT, but
a westbound flight that lands before it takes off should
not be an unexpected edge case. "
Our old friend
Extra Baggage
found us a real error'd from Jet Blue. It's
not as funny as a $900 sandwich but it's a big brand we can point fingers at.
Says Extra B. "I was trying to get my stuff from Place A to Place B,
along with myself. Just making sure that everything checks
out -- er. Well, JetBlue's rules for baggage are quite technical.
Anyway, one would expect this to be a rather common client-side
rendering issue, however none of the other 33 rules had any issues, so I'm unsure.
"
Extra B. also had a private gripe about the captcha system. I hear you, E. Perhaps
one of the other regular commenters has a suggestion about how to avoid them.
"Riding the bus from Adelboden, Switzerland," Adrien K. found an unlikely mojibake.
Railfan Peter "Amtrak seems to have problems with subtraction, but only on the departure side. Somehow the train caught up two hours in 8 minutes?" I am certainly confused.
"In case you ever wanted to know the London / Tower Hill / Tower Gateway Station (Stop TE) sign's Class C network address." says old faithful Michael R. Seems TFL thinks they're keeping the signs secure by masking their addresses.
