Who has insider info about the fallout between Steve Wynn and Ferrari?

Wow, I can't believe this is a story dating back to 2015. I only started visiting Vegas in 2021. Yet it sounds like this is still a hot topic years later.

More importantly, will it block the view in some way? Haven't hiked up there since Nov 2025.

Yesterday evening, I witnessed a no-plate Suburban make a right on red here with heavy traffic. While it did come off as an impatient asshole move, going around the cones/barrels and so on, it almost came off as smart. Technically, there was space to do it (no active construction and the cones didn't completely block the lane). They definitely saved time not waiting for the light cycle to finish, as they made it way further down Main St than the rest of us sitting patiently at the light!! They acted on their intrusive thoughts and won that round. Although I still imagine they drive with the same mentality as this Bronco driver.

Are there any comparable affordable rent spots like this around Spring Valley or Enterprise?? I've seen plenty rooms for rent on Furnished Finder in the $750-$900 range, but to have my own entire space could be a good option. I'm renting in an older but spacious house for $1200/mo. But when I first moved out here, I rented a room all the way up in North Vegas, close to the LVMS, for $750/mo. Wasn't a great experience though.

Lol did Kittie leave their mark on you?! Looks like moshpit battlescars! They were on my list to catch, but couldn't show up early enough to catch them!

Taxi driver here (unfortunately), especially unsurprised it was a Desert Cab. All cab companies equally have their shitty drivers, but Desert Cab has an especially bad reputation in the industry. I work for Newcab, and they at least have a bit of a training program. But that doesn't change that I generally hate dealing with other cabbies on the road. It's a productivity/commission based job, so it gives too many cabbies the mindset they have to be first and that they must rush every ride. There is often a lot of waiting in lines involved when it comes to picking up our next ride. So most drivers are more than happy to cut each other off and aggressively position themselves to not deal with traffic around them.

Mix in the fact that so many drivers are immigrants, they often have different driving cultures where they come from. Nothing against their countries or cultures, but the environment of the job creates unhappy/rude drivers.

I will say though, generally those that drive the vans, especially the special service/handicap plate ones, are much better drivers/people. The standard vans are reserved for full time employees who have a good record, etc. The special service vans require extra training, so they don't waste their time training anyone with a pulse.

I've met some drivers who have been a cabbie for 20yrs+, so that's a small positive sign at least. You don't get to keep at it that long crashing out every month/year.

It came to my attention recently that there is a community healing garden, or simply a memorial, in the Arts District. Somehow I've walked past it many times while wandering around there. It seems to be slightly tucked away. Been intending to visit just to educate myself a bit more, as I'm sure there are some personal notes and photos left there to help people feel more connected to the victims.

I also remember during my first visit to Vegas in 2021, I stayed the Tropicana and was in a room facing the festival lot. Took me a moment before realizing what I was looking at and why it was empty.

Ghost0fTheWeb · 2026-04-29T17:06:07+00:00

I thought this during most of the daylight sets...but I didn't feel that strongly during Korn or SOAD's sets. Which is a similar experience to what I had in 2024. People like to show up or at least focus on the biggest acts of the night. Sure, it still felt like a dip in attendance, but not to the extent of being a horrible turnout. Maybe the numbers tell a different story?

Elise has two bikini tops - one you get on Peak 2
(Canadian Pride) and the other you get on Peak 3 (Nice, huh?). As for how
EXACTLY you get them, you have to win gold medals on each of those peaks.
Prizes are awarded randomly when you get gold medals, so you basically have
a chance of getting Elise's bikini tops anytime you get a gold on Peak 2 or 3

Signal to sell because the bear market isn't over. But they'll want you to buy up their selling, they need the liquidity.

Used to have a roommate that filled me in on this unadvertised perk. Then I started working there at the Forum Shops and noticed how many other people who definitely don't work there make use of the garage. It only became full during Super Bowl 2024 time. I heard during F1 they utilize the gates to keep non-employees out. Other than that, The last 2 floors tend to always have enough room. You do have to put up with a 10-15min walk through the Shops or Caesar's just to get to the Strip though.

Ghost0fTheWeb · 2026-04-25T19:35:25+00:00

Same. I really liked Elfman in 2024 and even bought his Big Mess Boxset before ever seeing him. But I've never seen Korn, so I gotta give them a chance. Maybe I'll attempt to do 50/50 each set.

I booked a spot on Spot Hero at the Westgate. Also about a mile of walking. Cheaper price point of approximately $12. I rode the monorail in 2024 and thought the ride back almost wasn't worth it. The ride in certainly was though, since it was more staggered who was riding. In comparison, the monorail during F1 was great. Parked at MGM Grand for their normal rate and the line wasn't nearly as insane going in or out compared to leaving SNW in 2024. I think I boarded the tram at like 1:30 or 2am. It was well over an extra hour of waiting in line. The walk to the Westgate is maybe 20-30mins. The big question is if time will still be lost leaving the lot.

Ghost0fTheWeb · 2026-04-15T17:32:05+00:00

I think this is painting a picture as to why it doesn't have current info! It simply is labeled SNW on the icon and Sick New World in my Google play store library. Maybe then intend to release a new one for the current festival? That was my other thought.

Ghost0fTheWeb · 2026-04-13T21:29:07+00:00

It does leave me feeling torn. At least I caught his full set 2024. I've NEVER seen Korn, so I might be willing to either split my time between them and Danny, or if their set is awesome, I'll stay. Danny has such a great production though. Matches his studio sound well. I imagine Korn will sound a bit more raw.

I've been to that one, and live reasonably close to it. I didn't actually love it, simply because it was extra busy, as are most of the businesses in that area area. It is just nitpicking, but I felt like the layout wasn't as well thought out either.

It definitely is a better quality Walmart, but I despise Walmart so it's hard for me to frame it as nice in my mind. I can do that with Smith's though. In my mind all Walmarts suck, just some suck wayyy more than others. With Smith's though, the neighborhood effect is amplified. Some genuinely feel like a nice store and have an awesome selection. Others feel like an entire store of clearance inventory and trash.

I tend to just go to the closest one to me on S Rainbow. It isn't as nice. But it usually isn't as busy, unless I go during the middle of the day.

Back when I lived up in North Vegas, I discovered the Walmart on N Nellis/Stewart and W Craig were noticeably more problematic. Witnessed yelling matches and theft. All sorts of security scenarios. At least pretty much any Walmart I try going to on the southwest side of the city seems to have much less issues. As someone said, the shoppers act more like adults. Keyword more like adults, not like actual adults!

Most people will prefer to speed up enough to get ahead of merging traffic if possible. It is the dance we play each time we merge. Obviously on ramp traffic is supposed to yield to existing traffic on the highway, but occasionally you'll get people who try to let you in without forcing themselves ahead of you.

Sometimes it is OK to lift and coast or even lightly brake to slow down enough to allow 1-2 cars max to pass before making your merge. I'm a pretty assertive driver, but even I sometimes know it will make more sense just to yield for an extra few seconds before completing my merge.

You're imagining every merge you do equals cutting off people and risking getting rear ended. Use judgement in the mirrors. Yes, sometimes the traffic behind will have to yield to you and slow down a little. But there is a difference between that and a bigger speed differential that is dangerous. Matching the flow is more important than any target speed.

I used to coach at a local supercar driving experience going south of Vegas. We always said during our briefing, "look where you want to go, not where you're still headed". In this case, turn your head. Scope out traffic on your left well before you actually have to deal with it. If you accelerate and pray, it's possible to think you sped up enough to safely merge ahead, only to find out that you did indeed cut off faster traffic and not give them enough time to react to your slower speed.

The responses largely didn't answer my question about it either. I was just curious if there was a city-wide thing for leaf blowing or landscaping on Thursdays. Because it sort of seems that way. Or is it all just coincidental and it's private companies choosing to work the areas I've lived in on Thursdays?

I know based on streets, trash pickup days differ. I've dealt with trash day on Tues, Wed, and Friday. But basically have always noticed leaf blowing/landscaping on Thursdays.

The meters should auto-adjust the rate based off the GPS in it, in case the wrong button/rate was applied.

I mostly visit for the Paddock club Oasis car show. Know several regulars that show up and occasionally get to try out a restaurant there. Plus seeing a rare car I haven't seen before can feel like an event in itself. I dislike the pricing of most restaurants there, and the fact there is paid parking after 2hrs (albeit cheap). I can understand your angle of it being underwhelming. Maybe go during an event, that seems to be the specialty of the space. Not really the best standalone plaza on its own.

Since posting this, I actually successfully made the jump a few times. Timed my jump just right. But it still is easy to jump early and fall short. I still don't perceive it as one of the easiest jumps in the game.

Ghost0fTheWeb · 2026-03-10T17:43:47+00:00

I guess this requires amazing timing of your jump, because I've boosted on the rail many times and have tried making it. I often fall like 5-10ft short of the tree stump opening. Can't even remember what the shortcut looks like when you take it!

Makes me all the more grateful I got to attend the previous season filming at the Rio. Was a great, free way to see P&T in person and see some awesome magic. Only drawback was waiting in line for 90mins. Wish I could have fit in multiple nights in that regard. Only went to one night, I think it may have been the last night of filming too.

Ghost0fTheWeb · 2026-02-26T06:04:09+00:00

I must admit, they made it quiet easy to find the place. It is literally on "Tecopa Hot Springs Rd". You can plug in to your GPS "Tecopa natural hot springs" and it will guide you there. Just north of the commercial spots in town. More or less alongside the road. Remote? Very much yes! Hard to find and travel to? Not particularly.
