  12. luxor food court in july: when was the last time you had to stand in line for 2 hours at midnight to check in? it happens every day in vegas when was the last time either of you were there on a weekend? the post-rona bridge and tunnel southland invasion, flyover tourists, the jersey/miami crowd, it's become a gravity well for the least pleasing groups of our fellow citizens chitowndoc and gandorf, with fuckyou money and the porn crowd, if that's you, fantastic a front row table in the wynn field club is $25k-$60k, plus sales tax (8.375%), venue fee (12.75%) and autogratuity (15%) for the rank and file of our fanbase it would be a disaster for those that are unprepared to deal with what vegas has become the mgm aria charges $26 for the bottle of water in your room at the paris there is no desk and no open outlets next to the 'shelf' that holds the minibar tray - when you unplug the tray to charge your devices you are charged $50 automatically and they will not refund it have you ever arrived at the car rental facility at 9pm only to find the counter is closed and there are no cars even though your name is on the gold board? do i need to go on? and while we are here, just who the fuck are we going to play? (obviously not unlv) are the restaurants spectacular? absolutely is the sphere unique on the planet? sure how much of our traveling fanbase wants to drop $2000/day for a family of 4 on top of air and tickets? it's more expensive than disney w/ fully-leaded vip everything if you are doing stuff
  13. aloha stadium is actually more dangerous than the south side of pyle - a good earthquake will bring it down - no sandstorm in drainpipes required the replacement opening in '29 will seat 22k: NO miles: AUS-HNL 3765 AUS-GLA 4646 AUS-LHR 4914 and with southwest's destruction of the hawaii market survival class capacity has been eradicated go price first-class nonstop on aa/dfw or ua/iah forget using miles on either route - the last time i looked aa wanted FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND round trip 9 months out

  20. they fired all of their expensive talent and replaced them with drones they don't create shit - well, maybe 30 for 30 counts - and some of the football docs inre: content investment, they don't own the content, they just pay for it, and the day is coming when we will pay every league (rights aggregators) for their content for a day, week, month or season, delivered by starlink, kuiper, eutelsat/oneweb and 1 or 2 others resulting from the mergers of the legacy geostationary operators disney's career as a serial rapist has a limited lifespan but for now we suffer
  21. welcome to late stage capitalism and the great enshittification did it begin with the nixon nuke on bretton woods in '71? reaganomic deregulation? graham-leach-bliley in '99? citizens united in '10? the race to the bottom began round about when many of us on this board were born or growing up a very very small number of "big M&A" deals have been nixed in this century, notably comcast/timewarner and at&t/tmobile..... microsoft was NOT forced to break up, the original bell system breakup resulted in death stars, usair acquired aamerican regardless of the obama admin's attempts to stop it, google pays antitrust fines by handing over free data, XOM (exxon+mobil) required the 2 entities to 'divest' 2500 gas stations, but they just wrote new paper for the new storefronts (7eleven, tetco) and made MORE MONEY on the downstream without the retail overhead, the list goes on and on and on in this particular situation, google v. disney, the culprit was the telco act of '96 which allowed broadcasters to bypass their cable distribution agreements this was an almost 100% bipartisan catastrophe the results of which we feel today were never envisioned https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_Act_of_1996 our entire system of economic governance is corrupted by the captured reality of campaign finance and the "special interest" industry which made reversal or remediation impossible, and that was before the iphone, social, post-truth, alternative facts and the oligarchs came on the scene i was going to quit uverse and start fighting the streaming wars earlier this year i thank god every morning that i have nonshittified instant-on zero-fuckery linear tv that costs a fucking fortune except like last year when disney and att went to war
