This is the only way it could’ve happened. All of the public parking spots in town here have gone to the QR code parking apps. I don’t mind them, but I didn’t know this would happen as I certainly never signed up at this center.

Are automated parking lots the new stop light cameras?

Posted by NolaLovingClemsonFan on 4/30/26 at 11:25 am

This shopping center near the house that we go to a lot just installed some sort of automated parking thing that once you drive onto the lot, it sends you a text saying your parking trip has started and then ends it when you leave. Mind you there’s no gate to go in and take a ticket, it’s all automated with sensors I guess. I also never signed up for it, gave it my card, or my cell phone, but I still get the texts (which is creepy in and of itself).

It tells me my bill at the end (and my cumulative bill). I just delete it right away as it reeks of those stop light cameras that mailed you bills but were totally not enforceable. Are these things legal? They simply hoping some pay out of fear, or is it legit?

re: This was the New Orleans airport today; most people expected to miss their flights

Posted by NolaLovingClemsonFan on 3/23/26 at 5:49 am to LSUneaux

Does anyone know why there seems to be randomness around this? A week ago it was Austin. Then LGA. Now it’s New Orleans. It doesn’t seem like there’s rhyme or reason. Is there any way to know if your airport will get smoked and have this nightmare? I fly out of Charlotte Wednesday. Is it just get to any airport 3 hours early these days just in case?

re: Young Sherlock from Guy Ritchie- Official Teaser Trailer | Prime Video

Posted by NolaLovingClemsonFan on 3/21/26 at 10:16 am to PhilipMarlowe

Thought it was pretty good overall.

As some said it got a bit silly at the end, but I thought still pretty good, and I’m not a Sherlock ride or die.

My only problem, if it can even be considered that, is that the second guy Moriarti stole every single scene he was in to the point it was almost awkward, AND this is with the fact that I really liked the Sherlock actor.

All of the adults were either wooden or cartoonish, but I thought Moriarti and Sherlock were so good. That Moriarti dude is gonna be a star.

F trying to spin higher prices as good for most anyone in the US, BUT getting rid of the Jones Act would be a huge benefit of all of us, one of the most absurdly restrictive laws there is, to largely our detriment.

We’re scheduled to be in Cancun middle of May, and my wife is freaking out worrying this will wreck everything. Usually it feels like this stuff gets isolated to pockets where only locals and cartels are affected. It spilling over into international settings like airports is pretty scary. Sucks, hope it simmers down over the next 2+ months!

While I generally agree with your sentiment, I think you’re missing OP’s point. He doesn’t want to adopt anyone, foreign or domestic. He wants reasonably high functioning people to come visit, stay a few months or a year, then leave. There isn’t much of a market for that outside of foreign exchange students.

Exactly

I don't understand why Americans never want to help out Americans. Why wouldn't you want to adopt an American kid? And I don't mean this to be a smartass.. I'm just curious

It's like my Church.. all of their money trips are overseas to rebuild things... It annoys me that they never go to low income parts in our own ountry to help rebuild things and it's always a select group of people that go on these long trips overseas.

I just find it odd

Fair. For me it would be two-fold. I do think there is a benefit to giving our kids some exposure outside of the US. I feel it had a profound impact on me growing up so since I don’t think we’ll have the ability to live somewhere overseas, this feels like a way to give a small version of that.

The bigger reason, though, is the permanence of the decision. Sponsoring an exchange student seems like 2% as big of a commitment as adopting a person for life. I mean, if the kid is a nightmare or we find out it isn’t our thing, then it will be over after that semester or whether. If you adopt someone, that’s for life. That’s something I’ve never been able to get comfortable with when it wasn’t someone we created.

It’s less about foreign vs domestic and more temporary vs permanent.
