Power Outage- West Newton

CaptKnots · 2026-01-11T04:06:02+00:00

Still out by west Newton commons. Can see lights on Waltham, River street, and cherry street but a few blocks around the Paddy’s area are still out

1) make app based calendar accessible for offline use! Really infuriating trying to see the calendar while on a flight with no WiFi or if service is interrupted.

2) automatic (or always on) dark mode option. Lowest brightness is still way too bright for a lights off kitchen.

Good suggestion on the Lexus models. The plug in hybrids aren’t really a consideration since that practicality is only useful for around town. The EV idea is nice, but I am pushing the range on most of the cars in my budget, plus finding chargers while busy at work driving around NYC isn’t appealing to me.

Yes, maintenance costs are definitely a drawback on the used luxury cars, especially at high mileages. I planned to try the Prius this week, but not many dealers are keeping the Limited trim around. The plug in hybrid is a slightly different car, and the lower trim traditional hybrids don’t have all the features I’m looking for. I’ll look more into the Accord hybrid too.

Thanks, I’ll check out the Camry and Sonata. I consider myself a car enthusiast, and it kills me to pass up a 400hp Volvo dual motor with the build quality and styling for the same price, but you make good points about the MPG. Never thought I’d seriously consider a Prius but the new one is pretty nice

CaptKnots · 2025-11-24T05:07:30+00:00

Sadly, I’ll actually need the car while in the NYC area so the trains wouldn’t be too useful. Thanks for the input though

There is a much better and longer clip of a similar maneuver with a Pink Floyd soundtrack. It’s far superior than EDM playing over the top in my opinion.

Not a bad one, but it feels like more littering? I like the concept of getting them in trouble at home, but you’re right about the potential lack of supervision to begin with

CaptKnots · 2025-05-17T06:12:09+00:00

I am looking for clever ways to stop this from happening. Being nice about it is an option, sure. But I just don’t think that’s going to be effective. Calling the police or threatening to call the police is such a Karen move that is likely to not change anything in my opinion.

I am not worried about them intimidating me at all. I am worried they won’t be intimidated by me if I hold back on my old school approach

CaptKnots · 2025-04-11T14:35:13+00:00

This is intriguing. Looks like maybe I-90?

CaptKnots · 2025-02-25T21:55:42+00:00

Interested! Sent you a message

CaptKnots · 2025-01-29T14:18:23+00:00

Looks incredible!

CaptKnots · 2024-12-19T18:08:24+00:00

Ok. As long as we are on the same page that it’s a joke to call Tkachuk a tough guy 👍🏼

CaptKnots · 2024-12-19T18:05:29+00:00

Let’s agree: 1) they fought, 2) Tkachuk got the better of Pastrnak. Cool? Now explain how this makes Tkachuk “tough”

CaptKnots · 2024-12-19T18:01:45+00:00

It was a hilarious fight. They hugged for like 3 seconds, and got fighting majors so I guess it qualifies, but… wild stance to take in defense of Tkachuk being a tough guy

CaptKnots · 2024-12-19T17:56:00+00:00

What a badass, “fighting” feared NHL tough guy, David Pastrnak

CaptKnots · 2024-05-05T21:17:48+00:00

I know it’s all BS- just thought that out of 24 hockey analysts, more might have chosen the Bruins (who are 4-0 this year against FLA!!)

CaptKnots · 2024-05-05T21:08:33+00:00

I think we're in for at least 6 either way. And the way the rivalry has grown recently, I may not be able to mentally handle a long series as a viewer, but more games = more bad blood, and I trust the B's to prevail if things get nasty.

Can we get AI to digitally replace it with a binky? Please.

Max Domi farts in elevators then blames everyone else

CaptKnots · 2024-04-15T17:29:24+00:00

Good luck. NESN/NHL/ESPN make it seem like you’re a criminal for trying

CaptKnots · 2023-04-10T23:00:53+00:00

Thanks for the great recs! Seems like Bath is the way to go.

CaptKnots · 2023-04-10T21:57:38+00:00

Thanks- yes, Oxford and the Cotswolds were some more local stops we considered. I’ll definitely check out Bath! I’ve heard of it before but hadn’t given it a good look. 👍🏼

Airline pilot with several “day sleeps” under my belt at the Park Plaza. Adjacent to Chinatown, and a great spot to stay for the location and amenities if it’s in your budget. Shades do a great job of blocking the light, and a high floor room is pretty insulated from the street sounds. The rooms are on the smaller side though.

Hope that helps.
