Cool sarcasm, bro. But have you not heard that Google has gone way downhill since the advent of AI? It has become almost worthless.

Here's a Reddit thread about the decline of Google. Maybe this should be in a separate topic. Sorry for the rough language:

Can't she hop over the turnstiles like most other DC residents do?

You don't need a card anymore. Tap on phone. Most all metropolitan systems have that option.

Buy the Smartrip card. She should register it immediately so that she can recover the balance if it’s lost or stolen.

Due to family issues - someone I know is now living on her own at a very young age. She just moved from a shelter to her own apartment and does not have a car.[mastodon]

Anyway - I'm coming back to the area and plan to take her to lunch and gift her a Metro card with $100. Where can I pickup a gift card loaded with $100 for transportation? Ideally before meeting her and I do not want to give her cash or a visa card.
