@MeganRYoumans This playlist: open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9d…

if you’re not starting the day with three cheers for sweet revenge then what are you listening to instead?

@mcapriglioneart My cat is also named Rosemary!

is for rosemary ?

@BobWulff I have a 14 Pro and probably will upgrade

Some cool changes to the iPhone camera in the 16 Pro • 4k 120 video (in prores) • cinematic audio capture • a physical shutter button But not nearly enough to make me want to upgrade from the 15 Pro. Now THAT was a huge leap from the 14.

@NYCTSubway Got it, thank you

@jeffreybetts That would not be considered a transfer if you were going from the G to the 7 shuttle bus to the 7. ^JLZ

@NYCTSubway Hi. Is there not a free transfer between the 7 train shuttle bus and the 7 train at Queensboro? I had to pay a second fare when going into Queensboro?

@NYCTSubway I know, but asking about getting the 7 train at Queensboro- I had to tap in again.

@NYCTSubway I was going from the G between Nassau-Court Square to the 7 at Queensboro.

@jeffreybetts Good evening, the 7 shuttle bus is free so there would not be a transfer. ^JLZ

@NYCTSubway Thanks, I imagine counts as a free transfer at Court Square? Is that on top of a bus transfer that’s already included?

@jeffreybetts Hi, there won't be a charge for re-entering the Court Square station due to the G train project. ^JJ

@NYCTSubway If I’m traveling from Broadway on the G to the 7 at Court Square, do I need to pay 2 fares or 1? All of the sites say you need to use MetroCard/OMNY at Court Square, but shouldn’t this be a single fare from Broadway?

@ndhapple The MTA app has a lot of this data I think for scheduled trips and trip planning

Imagine Google Maps or Apple Maps or the MTA’s own app being able to compute live options from the airport to transit, including: Is Jamaica and the LIRR a better option than Howard Beach and the A train.

All I want for Christmas is for someone to plug the JFK AirTrain (and Newark AirTrain and the PATH; gee, who could be responsible) into the GTFS system.

@NYCTSubway There are G train shuttle bus signs up at bus stops where the shuttle bus isn’t stopping at

@stargazermellu Love these. Running Android I’m wondering?

looks like oakland’s got one of those smart city kiosks now 👀 (love to see human scale infrastructure)

@AirlineFlyer @MTA It works and probably faster/cheaper than a lot of other options

@AirlineFlyer @LIRR Barely made my connection this morning at Jamaica, had to run up and over. Those few minutes add up.

@AirlineFlyer @LIRR Whenever I do the trip back to Brooklyn, I figure out the time difference between waiting for the Brooklyn shuttle versus going to Woodside and getting the 7 > G.

@Lightroom From last night’s sunset

"that's so pretty... let me take a picture" 📸

@_blahblahblah Is there a widget inn the works for stations/times near your current location? Is that even possible with iOS?

When following a trip, users of iPhones with Dynamic Island (iPhone 14+ Pro, iPhone 15) see next stop info right on their phone’s Home Screen. Tap and hold it to expand, and see transfer info.

Live Activity comes to @theweekendest iOS app beta in version 0.6! You can now follow a trip, and track it in and outside of the app. The trip’s next stop and transfers info shows up on the Lock Screen. Join the beta to try it out today! testflight.apple.com/join/QMF8mCtV

@NYCTSubway Announcements at Metropolitan are saying no G trains between Bedford-Nostrand and Church Ave. Service has resumed correct?

@ndhapple Could they eventually do this with OMNY by having a transfer tap point before exiting the turnstiles?

Would be good to get an out of system transfer to the G to so folks could ride the J to Hewes or Lorimer and then switch to a northbound train
