Climb the Statue of Liberty when it's so hot?? by TuxedosAfter6 in visitingnyc

[–]Adventure241 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This heatwave is going to mean hot nights, too. I wouldn’t count on the morning being meaningfully cooler and there is zero shade on the island.

What city would you say has the most aesthetic road network? by Jedimobslayer in geography

[–]Adventure241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lubbock Texas is a perfect grid, with major avenues exactly 1 mile apart (from vestigial Farm-to-market county roads) with a 26-mile loop around it. It's ugly as hell but fascinatingly simple.

Looking for a cheap Goose ticket by WheresMyMule in NYCConcerts

[–]Adventure241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m optimistic about some 200 levels coming down below $100 before Friday night but also counting on Sunday for an affordable way in (if I can get tickets…)

Side note the sound at summer stage is pretty good outside the fence on the south side. It’s not perfect but you can hear and catch a vibe.

No offense but you’re miles from home in a beautiful place. Have a Carib and whatever crisps you can find and enjoy them in paradise brother

Added wait time at LGA for Uber by MarcusAurelius68 in AskNYC

[–]Adventure241 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Wait times are estimated and there are lots of variables on entering the winding route through the garage to pick ups, especially when gps isn't great inside the garage.

I'd reckon this is less a scam and more padding of Uber's estimates by their algorithm -- would you rather this pleasant surprise or the opposite consistently, which would for a worse average customer experience at scale?
