I love on the top floor of my apartment, parking in the lowest level
If a car pulls in when I'm in the elevator room, I'll send it back down to the bottom parking lot after I get off on the top floor. They will never know
Oh, I had completely forgotten that I did something similar!
To cross the rails, you have to go under them through a tunnel. Someone on crutches took the elevator down while I was carrying my electric scooter and heavy backpack down the steps. I'd make it to the other side before them and could ride the elevator up myself (I thought it would be weird to stand inside, waiting for them), but the person looked like they weren't having the best day on these crutches. So I walk through the tunnel and order the elevator, but turn around and take the stairs up myself, just as they're exiting the elevator on the other side so they didn't see me order it. When I reach the top of the stairs, they just pushed the button and the elevator was right there waiting for them ^^
(As for sending the elevator down to where I know someone will be coming, yeah I do that all the time as well since there's no reason not to tell the system where it makes sense to go)
I bought my niece a new MacBook Air. Her exceptionally poor, rural, Bible belt upbringing hasn’t stopped her from excelling academically. She needs a new computer and her family was going to buy her a $200 chromebook. But she’s off to college in a year and I knew that wouldn’t cut it. Here’s hoping it gets her to graduation.
Does she do graphic design, or why would an Apple be better than any other brand for half the price?
Of course a 200$ laptop isn't very usable, but why pay thousands of dollars extra just to have an Apple logo and get the kid introduced to vendor lock-in
A Unix-based system has value far beyond graphic design. A Mac will get software support for many years. The hardware quality and battery life are second to none.
I ordered the D&D Essentials Kit and Starter Set for a friend's child, whom I respect a lot. They expressed interest in D&D but didn't know where to start
I've given 2 strangers strangers a jumpstart in a parking lot at night over the last year or so. I suppose technically those people I helped know about it, but I haven't been going around bragging about it to anyone (until now I guess)
People think I'm unpleasant to be around but if I wasn't trying as hard as I can to be nice, I'd be the next Hitler or something. They don't see that effort though. Chronic pain sucks.
