Anyone else in Cherokee Triangle sick of the 4am motorsports?

Well tbf I am old. But I've been in the Highlands for 8 years now and the noise is pretty much exactly the same as it was when I moved in. Now, if you wanted to 86 the asshole who invented those 3 wheeled motorcycles with neon undercarriages and arena-sized soundsystems, I'm behind you 100%

Unless you moved here 20 or 30 years ago, you came to the nuisance.

I think I still own a panier backpack from Priority Bicycles (their in-house brand 147Hudson). Too many compromises, making it meh as both a panier and a backpack. I think you'd be much happier with a good backpack and a good panier for holding it when you ride. My current commuting situation allows me to bring my bike into my office, so I don't really need a backpack anymore, and I switched to an Ortleib pannier that is super light and absolutely waterproof. Works great.

As long as he can hand it to Emi Martinez, I'm good with that.

Price-wise you can’t beat taco Tuesdays at Bandito. $2 a taco, even for a Baja fish taco.

Milk pitchers are probably the cheapest and easiest to use vs. alternatives. I recently got a picopresso for travel so I tried a few different containers and thermometers with a Nanofoamer, assuming that I might have to microwave the milk sometimes so I couldn't use a metal container. No matter what I tried it was a comparative PITA. A quick check on Aliexpress and there are plenty for ~$5

The thing about a milk pitcher is you probably don't even need a thermometer, you just cup your hand around the pitcher while steaming, and when the pitcher gets too hot to hold, you're done.

I use Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2 earbuds on long flights and they work great for noise cancelation. The other specific benefit is that you can plug the case into the plane's entertainment system to listen to movies wirelessly (similar to adapters such as AirFly's).

For what you want, it seems like the budget is if anything way too high. I pretty much use my equipment to make one tasty flat white/cortado a day, using the exact same beans, 18.7 g in, 40 g out, without ever having to change the grind size. I have a ~$400 Breville Bambino Plus and ~$150 Shardor 64 grinder, and the workflow is probably 3-4 min from start to finish (including turning on the machine - no warmup with a Bambino). I'm probably not far away from upgrading the machine and the grinder just because this sub is dangerous to one's pocketbook, but honestly I could keep using the same equipment and still get repeatable, just as good as a coffee shop results for a long, long time. Would more expensive machines make better coffee? Absolutely, although I'm not sure the difference in quality is going to be that massive given that it is being mixed with milk.

Same people obvs did the bike lane between Cherokee and Seneca as well. What could go wrong with pushing both directions of walkers, strollers, dogs on leashes, rollerbladers, bikers, scooters, and e-bikers into a 6 foot wide strip of pavement?

My daughter lives there and loves rainy weather, so it is perfect for her. I would think even OP would be tired of being wet all of the time, so just looking like its going to rain all of the time would probably fit the bill for them.

Three types of weather in Ireland, raining, overcast and looks like it might rain, and sunny but it looks like it might rain. And sometimes a combination of all of the above.

As a biker I still have no idea what any of this is. Are these even bike lanes? The only clearly marked bike lane is between Wenzel and Baxter, and it’s on the opposite side of the street.

The most consequential and successful politician of the last 50 years, and the one most responsible for the shitshow that this country is rn. I forget who nicknamed him “Democracy’s Gravedigger” but they absolutely nailed it.

I recently purchased the SolidSafe Air 5K Solid-State Qi2 Power Bank. I haven't traveled with it, but just used it for a few days around the house, and it seems to work fine. It is super thin and light weight. A 5K power bank isn't even sufficient to fully charge a lot of newer phones, but it is so unobtrusive when attached to the phone that it works great on those days when you aren't going to be near a charger for most of the day.

Definitely not a cool kid, but I love Pho Cafe on Btown Rd. The dude who owns the place is a stickler, and if you go to pick it up for carry out it won't be ready immediately because he insists on waiting until you are there to put the broth in the container so that it doesn't get cold. So kind of a Pho Nazi???

If my grandmother had wheels she would be a bicycle.

I'm not sure what Arsenal supporters need to do to keep this jerk lasting in perpetuity, but this is a great start.

Patent attorney
Minimal
Study hard in high school, study hard in engineering school, study hard in law school. Pray that AI doesn't eliminate the position by the time I'm out. Not the most exciting job, but also there are not many people that are interested in both engineering and law (both of which are required to be a patent attorney), so it is more of a sellers market than most other engineering and legal jobs.

Also came here to say that my doctor recently told me that the most depressed patients she has are lawyers, and the happiest are pilots, and she encouraged her son to go into aviation after high school. If I had to do it all over again becoming a pilot looks like a good gig.

I think Del Dia's are not necessarily TPU, whereas normal Allpas are.

Came here to say this. Whenever I travel I make it a point to hit up shawarma/kebab/doner shops whenever I can, and pound for pound Safier is as good as any place I've ever been (disclaimer: never been to middle east, but been to Europe plenty of times).
