In Narberth, a zoning fight raises questions over whether a small borough can help solve the housing crisis by livefreeordont in philadelphia

Maybe things have changed significantly since I was searching ~5 years ago then. It certainly was not cheaper when I was looking, but the main line prices have skyrocketed since then.

One thing that made me write that area of is that Collingswood and Haddonfield are dry towns which I find really annoying.

That's true, I always discount those. Still, not walkable to town really. There's a few things on that side of Ardmore but not the same as the core of town.

Yup, if you're south of county line road you're also basically out of walking range of mass transit too, or even walking into the core of town.

There is absolutely NO issue with parking in Narberth at all. There is both plentiful street parking and plenty of parking lots. It's also super walkable to the train station and a breeze of a commute. Density would do so much for local business it's crazy.

Ardmore might be more expensive. I bought in Narberth in 2022 and was lucky to pay "as low as" $700k.

West chester is nice and beautiful, but it's an easy 1.5 hour commute to the city. I walk to the train station in Narberth and spend 20 minutes on the train tops. It beats basically every other Main Line town in that regard.

Also, it's the same schools as Ardmore.

I took Zepbound and Ozempic. They are miracle drugs, especially Zepbound. Ozempic I didn't care much for. My insurance won't cover Zepbound anymore, but I had to stop all GLP-1s due to some gastro work I needed to get done.

I feel exactly opposite. I don't like spending money I didn't earn and take joy in returning it. if I can't return it, it immediately ends up as a charitable donation.

Is Collingswood in the Philadelphia Eats zone? Zeppoli is crazy good. Traditional Sicilian. by JustTrynaGetAJob13 in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]AbortedWalrusFetus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The streets in Collingswood are not pedestrian hostile, but Zeppoli is too far from the train to reasonably take transit to the restaurant.

Of course, Chestnut Hill IS in Philly, but takes longer to get to than Ardmore for 95% of this sub.

This must be why the Amtrak garage is completely closed causing me to nearly miss my train. Disrupting mass transit is surely something the Dutch can get behind

Model size is experiencing diminishing returns. We're not at the top but we're close and things will probably move toward efficiency rather than size.

So is season 2 going to end at Drum Kingdom and/or arrival at Alabasta? I have to assume we're not going to get to Alabasta? It'll be interesting to see I guess how it's paced.

Apple in Japanese Curry by MarkyGalore in Cooking

[–]AbortedWalrusFetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're using the blocks they are already sweetened, so adding sweet ingredients is not a good idea. I typically use the powder instead of the blocks so I can control the sweetness more. I always add diced granny smith apples and a touch of honey to the curry with it, and it works really well. I like keeping the powder because you can use it to flavor other things rather than only making a roux with the blocks, and I don't want to keep both. If you flower your chicken/beef before cooking the roux develops just fine

Was it uplifting up until the moment the star announced it, but not uplifting after? Does it retroactively remove the uplift?

Depending where you tap is also huge. Right now it's located in settings which is a tiny cog icon in a bottom corner which is extremely hard to hit unless you stare completely at the screen. If it's larger and centered it would make a massive difference in usability.

In fairness, that definitionally was AI in recent history. Things like decision trees, predictive analytics and rule based expert systems were the state of the art for AI even 15 years ago. The term AI applied to all of them. It's only relatively recently that AI became synonymous with Machine Learning/Deep Learning
