  1. China Air is also good. Food not quite as good as Eva. Rest of experience is solid. Both are ages above any US carrier.
  2. Ewww disgusting. Eva Air to Taiwan, and you stay Star Alliance so your United miles and status still help.
  3. Most definitely wrong thread. This goes in "Best things ever, ever."
  4. Get whatever quality wired earphones you want and get the little usbC to headphone jack dongle. No reason to limit yourself to the crappy "usbC earphone" market. I'm a big fan of Etymotic.
  5. The big US 3 are already paying significantly higher labor costs than their competition. I'm amusedly watching the UAW kill off their golden goose.
  6. I've definitely had some bad yogurt.
  7. Fuck that, your people are too spoiled. You will eat whatever mystery unlabeled item you are handed and you will like it.
  8. Use ground turkey. Add beans. You mean use vegan tofu substitute. And beans.
  9. You wouldn't run out of things to do on just one subway line in a week. Tokyo will take all the time you can spend.
  10. hahahahahahahahahahahahaha But I'm not selling either.
  11. Except this is a fake 3yr baseline and anyone who expects it to stay normal is in for a rude surprise.
  12. They're just being nice. They don't actually appreciate you.
  13. I just bought a BMW X5 diesel. 2011-13 can be found easily for 10-12k. If you get lucky as low as 4k, and that's not clapped-out, it's just people not knowing the diesel and being afraid of it. I've sent two 4k candidates to a friend in Austin. Delete the emissions crap and ALL the known problems go away. That'll cost ~5k if you pay a shop. Luxury torque monster with 30mpg. Get the 3 or 5 series diesel if you want 40mpg.
  14. Do not take that car to a dealer!!! There is no one at a dealer that has any clue wtf is going on with a car that old. Find an independent who specializes in the same make (not model), or at least is an "import" or "Japanese" specialist.
  15. BlackRock is also back to X days/week. The remote days will keep winding down, so if you jump ship to find a "more remote" job, make sure you don't burn any bridges, as sooner or later your other job will require office work also.
  16. This was NRT-DFW, that's everyone that was on this flight. Entirety of biz class had one other passenger. Honestly each of the Economy passengers had more space, they all spaced apart, claimed full rows to themselves and slept across the seats or slept on the floor.
  17. I'd go WSM again, it's what you know and short of a real offset it's still one of the best smokers. Kamado isn't as good as a pure smoker, they are too efficient to have much smoke flow (but are way more versatile.) Have you ever wished you had more space? If so, go 22. I've never tried the smaller one but never felt the 22 was hard to disassemble or move. But if you've never had a space issue, smaller one uses less fuel as well.
  18. I'd take a look at Canali and Corneliani.
  19. I know you said you aren't buying both, but buy both, see which one speaks to you over a few months of wear, and sell off the loser.
  20. Cx90? Nicest driving and imo best looking of the field.
