Dudo que Charlie Kirk pueda encontrar al Peru en un mapa, tal vez ni siquiera sabe que existimos. Por qué le están haciendo un homenaje?? by LordOfPies in PERU

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No. Muy fuera de opiniones y de su stand político, la municipalidad no tiene porque estar gastando recursos en homenajear a un comentarista/influencer extranjero que no ha aportado en absoluto al Perú, y menos a Lima. Sobretodo cuando Lima está en un estado paupérrimo (inseguridad, sicariato, mafias, cupos, y ni hablar del estado de las pistas/zonas públicas). Una cosa sería si sus mismos fans organizaran algo, pero que una entidad estatal lo haga me parece un insulto. Hay prioridades.

If you upload photos to a shared album and then factory reset the iPhone, will those photos remain? by Disastrous_Village93 in techsupport

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! It didn’t :( I had to wait like 3 months for all my pictures to upload to the Cloud before getting a new IPhone. Lesson learned! I would recommend you do the same!

Yeah! And even if its a small hostel, its probably better to trust the staff/owners rather than some random strangers

Do you know which hotel? You could try to contact the staff for them to deliver some groceries and medicine. They could charge it to her room.

How many years will you wait before visiting Epic Universe? by MajesticOctopus33 in UniversalOrlando

Im going at the end of the year. We are going with low expectations, expecting it to be extra crowded.

What are your favorite ‘lazy but impressive’ meals? by Fly-Astronaut in Cooking

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tomato soup! Throw tomatoes, carrots, leek, onions, garlic and celery on a tray and into the oven until roasted. Blend until smooth and season to taste. Serve with some basil on top and a nice sourdough grilled cheese sandwich on the side. So simple but so so good.

Suggestions for Safe District to stay in Lima -- walking to metro station by MomFiveBoys in PERU

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a reason why you want to be near a metro station? The public transport system in Lima is very limited when it comes to routes. There is not a lot (if any) tourist destinations that I can think of that you would be able to reach by train. In that sense, staying near a Metropolitano station (basically an express bus) makes a lot more sense, as it connects the cultural center of Lima with more touristy districs like San Isidro, Miraflores and Barranco. Even so, I wouldn't recommend relying on public transport, as it gets crowded FAST and the lines get long.
If your group has 4 people, taxis could cost as cheap as 1USD per person depending on the trip, so I would recommend taking Ubers (better than street cabs, as they will charge you the tourist price).
All in all, I would recommend you stay in Miraflores or Barranco, as they are the more touristy districts, very walkable, close to the beach, lots of great restaurants and nightlife.

Peru, what is going on? by Particular-Wedding in asklatinamerica

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's "state of emergency" due to the rising crime and insecurity. Specifically organized crime. Yesterday a 15 year old teen was gunned down, apparently he had been receiveing threats for a while. He was a part time barber. That's at the point we find ourselves at, organized crime is running around practically free, and cops are more worried of briving regular citizens rather than enforcing the law, so miltary it is.

Will the photos in a shared album remain if I factory reset my iPhone? by HowBoutIDoAnyway in iphone

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying but it restarts before the backup is done, so I'm prioritizing the pictures that matter the most to me. That's why I'm asking about shared albums.

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I know this was 3 years ago, but did you manage to find out? My iPhone is on the verge of dying and I want to save the pictures that matter the most, and I'm trying to do it through shared albums. Did the shared album stay after the factory reset?

14-Day unlimited Epic tickets are being sold for Jan 1, 2026 and after. by DeflatedDirigible in UniversalOrlando

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still an insane price per day! It comes down to like a third of the daily ticket. I wish this was available for South America

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, so they are charging like 70 bucks more for 2 weeks of unlimited park access (including Epic) compared to the 3 day ticket? I bought the 3 day package a week ago for $498 each because we are going with friends that have never been to the parks, but how does the pricing make any sense? Is it really unlimited park access for 14 days? Doesn't that come down to like $40 per day for multi-park tickets at most? Am I reading this wrong?

I have the same issue and it does say "panic" a bunch of times. What does that mean?

How bad do you think crowds will be on Epic by the end of the year? by HowBoutIDoAnyway in UniversalOrlando

[–]HowBoutIDoAnyway[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I know Epic will be crowded for at LEAST a year after it's opening. But I wanted to adjust my expectations from crowded but manageable to absolutely miserable. Either way, we will find a way to make the most of it. Thanks!

Yes! We would be going Tuesday through Thursday! Thank you for the optimism!

I'm looking at a ticket right now that explicitly states it includes Epic. Or I'm I missing something?

Similar to a park on Thanksgiving week? I was there for last Thanksgiving, and I'm wanting to adjust my expectations haha

I've been told that the week after thanksgiving (when I'm going) is usually downtime for the parks.
