Consider attending one of the smaller regional burns before heading to Black Rock. They’re great fun and an excellent way to learn about the Principles, community, volunteering, and more general stuff like what to bring.

Thankfully we got the entirely predictable “hurrrr just don’t go lol” comment out of the way early 

i would say 1) i know you want to get there, but plan it to take longer than you think. we want you to arrive and get home again safe and sound. things go wrong — they ALWAYS go wrong, and not always in ways you can plan for, so take it slow. in a similar vein, 2) be prepared to go with a flow you weren’t…

“JUST” remoulade?!?! Hadn’t heard of it before, but it’s pretty good.

Oh...real tip...DO NOT TAKE A CAB FROM THE AIRPORT...I paid $130 Canadian (like $100 US) and that was only because the meter is capped at that price...i.e. the meter keeps going but they charge the flat airport rate...the airport is not close to the city...you will have to take one of the big greyhound bus/shuttles.

Yes, everything there is expensive. But not really much more than a big US city (I’m in DC area). Beers in a bar will run you 7 or 8 bucks, and... and... um... that’s really the only comparison I can offer.

thanks so why they hell does LH give only apple app link?

Nearly worthless.

I’ve said this before, I’ll say it again, it would be really neato if you guys could prefix these “Hey look a neat app” articles with the platforms supported, [iOS/Android] or [iOS] or [Android].

I guess it depends. But when you only get 10 PTO days a year and that’s where your vacation and sick days are pooled....a lot of people come to work sick.

Yeah, my employer combined sick and vacation into PTO a few years ago and I’ve certainly seen a higher incidence of people coming to work sick. It’s gotten to the point that I’ve had to actually send people home while they complain to me that they’re trying to build up their PTO.

My tip: don’t go unless you absolutely have to. Endless miles of soulless strip malls, soulless office parks, and soul-crushing traffic jams.

Pishaah......Straight Talk - $45 a month period gets unlimited talk and text and 8GB of LTE data that throttles down if you go over, but never cuts off (there is also a 10GB plan if that’s what you need). You can either use a GSM phone (uses AT&T’s network) or a CDMA phone (uses Verizon’s network). They also offer…

As I get older I have found out the hard way that caffeine is one of my migraine triggers, which sucks royally....Been drinking caffeine free sodas and cutting back on coffee, debating decaffeinated coffee. Know any good brands that won’t gag me?

WHO NEEDS A RIDE TO KALIMDOR?

Can’t wait to level up my Unarmed skill level!

Evil Week: Things you can do that are safe and legal

What device are you using? Cuz I’ve NEVER had that issue, lol!

So I’m a total Google Music stan, but I have to admit that the app design and functionality pretty much blows. Things like autoplay next episode when podcasts doesn’t exist, trying to find your playlists is a hassle, and a slew of other things that seem like they’d be easy UX fixes still linger. On desktop it’s quite…

I’ve recently switched over to Google Music from Spotify as my secondary music app (too far into the iOS garden in all aspects of family life to NOT have Apple Music). Google does a better job of scratching the itches that Apple Music can’t reach.
