Is there a service that allows you to see available destinations from your home airport

I was wondering if there’s a service or app that lets you enter your home airport and travel dates without needing to choose a destination first. Most of the services I've seen require a destination first and then searching for flights.

My home base is Washington/IAD, if for example I want to travel September 2026, I'd like to see available destinations along with premium cabin/business class award availability and the number of points required; example destinations would be London, Mexico City, Amsterdam, Moscow, or anywhere else.

I'm looking for a destination from my area airports that pops up something I would not have thought to have gone to.

I realize that Google Flights can do it, but I want a product that will do based on POINTS not cash.

Hand driving position

What's your hand driving position?? I'm trying to figure out if I'm weird or normal (loosely)

I drive ... 9 - 6 (9-5) hand position.
One elbow on the door armrest and and the other elbow on the center armrest, with my right hand grabbing the 6 o'clock position

Why did Rivian spin off Mind Robotics

Sorry mods if in the wrong sub , this obviously isn't about the vehicles themselves but is about the company. .. it's a discussion

Why did Rivian spin off Mind Robotics?? It's a gold mine for the overall company, similar to Tesla maintaining robotics and self driving in house rather than spending it off.

Should I purchase Disposable vs cheap digital camera for outdoor event ?

(1) $500 USD:

(2) What equipment, if any, you have now and why is it no longer meeting your needs? None

(3) What kinds of subjects do you intend to shoot? Party goers

(4) primarily for photography

planning an outdoor graduation party for family and friends and want to set up/ out a bunch of cameras for kids and adults to use to take random and candid pictures indoors and outdoors, and then for everyone to leave the cameras in a box after the party for us to browser and compile into an album for prosperity.

I worry that the disposable cameras even with 400 film will not take decent pictures in the dark or indoors

I would like to possibly order / purchase (new/used) about 40 of these cameras

How much do you think it would cost to do these brick columns and an in between fence. How much would electricification add per column? I realize pricing is geographically dependent but would like to get a reasonable ballpark cost from those that have had something like this built

Is there a cheaper but also attractive alternative to the brick columns??

The column on the left is currently in place, the fence and column on the right is Ai added. I'm trying to balance aesthetics and function and security along my property to keep out the darn deer which is ravishing my landscape.

I am surrounded by natural forest preservation so I'm gonna either build a natural evergreen hedge fence or maybe put these brick columns and fence pillars around the peripheral of the yard.

(I've cross linked in r/landscaping)

I love traveling and have been to Europe many times ... I do love it when the bill comes and I give them my credit card that the charge is the charge and no tip is asked for nor is there a button to add a gratuity. Painless and refreshing.

Which European countries "expect" a gratuity?

Now, a few times I've noticed some staffers in the UK/Ireland feel a tip is warranted.. thoughts?

Apparently lots of restaurants and hotels are going to start adding a mandatory 20% gratuity to the bill/check because they fear that Europeans / foreigners will not tip or small tip the staff.

Also some cities are going to raise the cost of mass transit (buses , subways, trains) to reach the stadium because the municipalities are saying it will "strain" their workers and system.!!!

New Jersey charging $150 each way to the stadium . WTF??!!
