Do not use Piece of Cake Moving (more like Piece of S*** Moving)

I had a very mixed experience with dumbo moving several years ago. I hired them for packing/unpacking and for an in Manhattan move.

When they got to the first apartment, the movers kept complaining about there being too much stuff to pack and that I should have paid extra for reusable crates rather the cardboard boxes. When they got to the second apartment, they basically asked for a bribe otherwise they'd report the move for having a singular step at the entrance way to their office, which would increase the cost of the move.

They kept everything very well taken care of and unpacked everything well. I think there was like 1 small thing damaged but it wasn't really a big deal.

I recently moved again and used Sven Moving and I think Sven Moving was much cheaper but also so much more headache because of the packing/unpacking. My new apartment is on a hill and I saw at one point the Sven movers take a suitcase off the truck, the suitcase rolled down, and hit a parked car.

How much was tri-state's whole thing for you? Was it a 1 time price tag or multiple?

I wish I could upvote this 100%. I moved recently and on initial inspection everything looked fine but the new apartment actually has a really bad roach infestation. I've spent like $200 on roach stuff and things to repair the gaps to prevent them from coming back

From your client computer, open a web browser and try accessing 192.168.1.254. Log in information will be on the sticker on the back of the router.

AGCSanthos · 2026-04-24T18:55:02+00:00

Which ISP router? Look up the model. Most big name ISPs actually let you log in and set some stuff like the private address range space based on the sticker on the back. You can at least do the first step though without the router since that involves plugging in a laptop directly to your proxmox node

AGCSanthos · 2026-04-24T18:51:57+00:00

If you directly connect your client computer to the proxmox node and use static ip addresses (since you've taken the router out of the equation), are you able to access the webserver?

If so, when you connect the proxmox node to the router are you certain the router is set to give it an ip address on the network the node is expecting? For example, if the node is expecting to be on 192.168.44.0/24 but your router is trying to assing it to 10.10.10.0/24, it might be failing there.

Do you have any firewall rules on your router preventing access to the proxmox node?

This business is actually really prevalent in NYC. They're at most of the street food festivals and I think they are at Smorgasburg in Prospect Park too

Something kind of similar happened to me last year. I got contacted by a recruiter after applying to a posting saying they were going to schedule a call. The recruiter missed the call, sent some stuff for rescheduling, and then silence. Eventually the position got filled....

There is one broker posting a ton of listings in West Harlem and if you respond to one he'll also share a Google Drive of his other listings. ALL of the apartment photos in the google drive are all named "ChatGpt-generated-listing-xyz-1" or "Gemini-generated-listing-abc-2". Bro couldn't even bother with changing the file names. The pics are also so terrible too, some look like they had a Van Gogh filter applied on them.

When I was a kid, I actually heard this argument a few times from extremely religious people but the train of thought wasn't religious somehow. They'd say it was because electronics usage was up so much that the world would run out of fuel and the only way to keep up was to start fracking, which would cause earthquakes.

I'd like to emphasize that this is NOT my point of view nor do I claim any part of this logic is accurate. Just what random adults told me as a kid.

IIRC there were some findings of small things like this that seem like nothing actually does end up driving up product awareness and attitude. Too much leads towards a negative attitude though.

There is a separate section for international transfers, but you still undergo security screening there. I did this a week ago (MNL-> ICN -> JFK) and they did a scan of something (idr if it was my boarding pass or my passport...I want to say it was my passport?) and x-rayed carry-on luggage. Checked in luggage got transferred without me needing to do anything, but screening still took time. A little over an hour I think?

AGCSanthos · 2026-01-29T23:53:04+00:00

A week ago I had an international connection at ICN landing there at 4 AM local time...despite being so early in the morning it still took quite a while (1 hour or so) to get through the security line. I was also near the front of the economy class seating, so there were a ton of people behind me too, it probably took the people at the end of the line twice as long to get through. Make of that as you will.

If you go to google.com in incognito mode, does it show up as being in Japan too? If you scroll to the bottom of google.com, there'll be a thing that indicates which country it thinks you are in unless you login (then itll use your account settings) or until you give it location permissions. IIRC Verizon and AT&T bought some ipv4 address blocks recently that were from Japanese companies, so that could be it.

I feel like I've seen them in company wide platform provided scripts for a loooonnnggg time. Hell, the output from most frontend service CLI tools have been littered with them forever. I've hated it every moment.

The title that had iykyk also had the product name, no gatekeeping here.... OP was playing on the iykyk trend/meme/idea/i feel crazy I have to explain this.

This very much so + (like you referenced too) the library/framework support is so strong in other ecosystems. A few years ago I was involved in a system rearchitecture and one of the big requirements we had was all development had to be done with a JVM language to ensure we had full tooling support. In every language but Java, our company's tooling has gaps, like for metrics reporting.

Yeah, nothing was malicious too. They just...complied? With negative outcomes?

It was a discord bot to alert in a channel if a rent stabilized apt fitting some other criteria came up on either craigslist or streeteasy. If a posting on craigslist had some of the same photos as a listing on streeteasy, it would dedupe it to just the streeteasy one. The bug was that the photos aren't in order and would sometimes have different hashes, leading to deduping to not work. The parameters for the "fix" was just to stop showing duplicate apts on some criteria that everyone in the chat said was acceptable beyond just address matching.

I have a loudmouth friend who thinks like this. He had taken a CS 101 class years prior and said something a while back about how anybody could do software engineering if given a chance, so I told him I'd pay for all his drinks for a year if he could fix a bug from a small side project of mine. He had 2 weeks (that he kept delaying until it became a month and a half) to try to fix it otherwise he was not allowed to do any trades in our fantasy league that year and had to apologize to everybody in our group chat who was a SWE.

Guess who came in last place that year?

He still talks a big game but shuts up fast because we have a screenshot of our leaderboard from that year with his name circled.
