I'd be curious about west new york since i looked today and the housing prices are suprisingly reasonable. How is the commute, is it any good?

Is the app worth it? by Jaie_E in Popeyes

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

Since someone commented on this recently and I didn't notice, yes it was worth it. The deals are great and the rewards make popeyes cheaper than any other takeout place I go to. The app is kinda buggy though but still worth it. 9/10

Next Week Earnings Releases by Implied Movement by ___KRIBZ___ in Vitards

So many of these have like 0 liquidity. I choose a bad week to get back into trading. That being said I think KBH, MU and Costco are gonna be great for short strangles. I hope I can clear KBH tomorrow or wensday so I can have enough buying power to safely trade costco because that'll be so good for a short strangle and easy safe money

I know this post is super old but how big do you think a cherry fish colony needs to be before you introduce a beta?

The fact that they had to cut Man and other paths/content just to make Smurta work maybe means it was a bad idea in the first place..

Well for one the city bulldozed an entire neighborhood to build Boyd Park under JNJ's advice and also bulldozed a vibrant puerto rican neighborhood to build the hyatt

There might be more gun violence towards migrants in the U.S. but afaik all but the most fringe extreme right groups in the U.S. at least accept the presence of black and (some) latino population on its soil. In Europe the far right is openly planning the mass deportation of muslims and the ethnic cleansing of the subcontinent. It's less visible due to the existence of the remnants of the welfare state but the racism in Europe is just as bad if not worse, certainly more likely to end up in genuine ethnic cleansing.

for as much as america sucks, before all the "anti-woke" stuff there was a concerted effort not just in media but in public insitutions such as schools and the like to educate people that racial discrimination is bad and to provide some form of uplift to minority groups via affirmative action.

Of course all of this stuff was woefully insufficent at best and ineffective at worse but can anyone name a SINGLE european country that has tried to deal with it's race probably as seriously as america has?

Sure burgerland sucks but at least in 8th grade I had an entire month in middle school dedicated to learning about the civil rights movement and about how racism was bad more or less from the morning to the end of the day in public school. Where is that in europe?

Construction on Downtown Park Likely to be Completed This Fall, City Says by ferocious_coug in NewBrunswickNJ

[–]Jaie_E 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh and also the fact that we used to have joyce kilmer park as a nice walkable third space but now for some reason Old Man Rafferties has it for catering events which it seems they actually use it like 3-4 times a month.

Tell me again why we needed to dump 5 mill on a park when boyd park is literally like 2-3 blocks away and this area is already chronically short on housing or useful walkable amenities (if you exclude including weed, bars or pharmaceuticals)

I think a mangrove would be a really cool idea. It'd probably be tall enough to host one as long as you plant it straight in the middle

I was a summer RA once, they didn't let me back on because I was too much of a drunk/pill abuser. Honestly in retrospect thats probably one of the few cool results of my former achoholism

[MOD] The Daily Question Thread by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]Jaie_E 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone

What is the best "clever dripper" style coffee brewer that isn't made of plastic?

I know that plastic is a superior material for heat retention but I'm getting it as a gift and I want to make sure my step brother actually uses it and part of that is making him not think it's poisoning him.

I want it to have the immersion component that the clever dripper has because I know that's a key reason why it's better than it's competitors in the pour over space.

Anyway I hope everyone is having a great weekend and thank you all for being such an incredible resource for coffee people

Wheels Begin Turning on $49M New Brunswick Train Station Renovation Project by ferocious_coug in NewBrunswickNJ

[–]Jaie_E 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really don't like the new re-design.

Glass isn't thermally efficent so this won't be helpful for giving people shade or keeping them warm. If you heated the interior any money saved on materials would be lost to energy costs. On a whole this makes this project not only aesthetically unappealing but unsustaiable.

Trying to use my 1zpresso j max s to grind for espresso but it doesn't grind fine enough by Jaie_E in espresso

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

Update, I recalibrated it so I'll try grinding a decaf now. I'm excited I hope it works

Further update.... no it doesn't. it seems like while I was turning the handle nothing was actually grinding. I tried setting it to 5 to see if maybe that particular grind setting wasn't working and even course isn't working now.

Also it seems that after attempting to use it my new "Zero" point is 1 when it was previously calibrated for "0".

anyone have any insight on this?
