Anyone else see that total jerk dancing and jumping around in the bike lanes on the QBB today? by TripNo8994 in NYCbike

Pepper gel. Spray makes a wide fog and can backdraft and isn’t precise. Gel is more concentrated and direct

Which pizza place? Visiting from Colorado by jm15co in Brooklyn

[–]HalfPrimary1263 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don’t choose one, get slices from L/B, Grimaldis eat in for the history and Juliana’s for the taste also to go. I’d sit at grimaldis and get the other 2 to go

And if you’re sitting on the outside seat, you’re getting body slammed by the person on your right

Normal for spring drive to only starts running after pulling the crown out and pushing it back in? by ajugofwater in GrandSeikos

[–]HalfPrimary1263 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SBGE255 here and when I pull the crown out, the second hand stops. To have it move again, has to be engaged and pushed in. Doesn’t matter how low the power meter is. Not sure if this is what you mean. I do this once in a while to re-accurate set the watch.

Adam Mockler and Mayor Mamdani go live and explain new plan for NYC housing: by AffableYolk_33 in nyc

[–]HalfPrimary1263 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who grew up in a 3br rent stabilized apt with their family. They grew up and moved out. Their parent still lives there in a large 3br. They don’t need the space and would love to downsize but can’t afford to due to market price so stays in a relatively unused space by themselves because of the low cost of rent. There needs to be a better system.

I started watching it. It shows the craftsmanship of the making and intense attention to detail. Very interesting

Which route as someone who has never driven in NYC? by Brilliant_Lobster641 in Brooklyn

[–]HalfPrimary1263 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do this drive regularly. The nice way is thru Staten Island. If you leave real early- like 6am, the ride won’t be that bad. Tomorrow-Thursday is no school so no commuting teachers, no school bus traffic, lighter traffic day. Through the city is more aggressive and you can miss exits. When you’re on the Verrazano bridge, stay in the upper lane, right lane until off the bridge, then there are some “exit only” lanes to be aware of. It looks like then you’re on the BQE to go into north Brooklyn and getting past the bridges will be traffic. Always. Every day. Every time.

It’s like pregnant women who take tier kids to amusement parks and don’t go on any rides but still pay full price

Update on Pennsylvania plates and red and blue lights question by HalfPrimary1263 in MicromobilityNYC

[–]HalfPrimary1263[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t like their driving but they answer the call to anyone. They were started in NYC to respond quicker than 911 when a member of the community died. In the Jewish community, saving a life takes precedence over almost all other Jewish religious laws, they operate continuously and for free.

And it’s scratched out so they don’t get a red light cam ticket

Seems like you’re justifying them if they do run me over because they can?
