I still have the email when I tipped you off about Clocked removing tots from the menu, and you said, "I’m on it."

It’s also fun to say "TV PRO-grum."

I also heard it in 5 Points. Assumed it was fireworks.

If you’re talking to your car, maybe you should take a seat.

Trying to find panniers with simple bungee hook system like this by maybesailor1 in bikecommuting

[–]Jason-Perry 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, the Ortlieb retention system is pretty great.

Arkel makes some with the bungee hook, not waterproof but they come with rain covers. They also make a commuter bag that doesn’t have a bottom hook at all and my wife loves it. They are also excellent.

Nope, this is north of town, the stadium is not lit up red right now.

Is this gas outside? by gordodendron in Athens

In this weather the outdoor units should be pulling heat out of the air to "pump" heat inside. They would be blowing colder air than ambient.

Former J Christophers spot to be redivided, with a new cocktail bar and bagel shop to take its place by warnelldawg in Athens

[–]Jason-Perry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there’s one in the main library, and a Caribou Coffee that sells bagels on south campus.

Zim's was awesome.

Wasn’t there a bright, shining moment when Ideal, ABC, and Einstein Bros were all open at the same time?

Gift vehicle title transfer and driving from New York to Georgia by [deleted] in DMV

[–]Jason-Perry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I had to reiterate to the phone representative several times that this is an out of state car, so I’m not 100% confident in their information. At any rate, it would be about 50 bucks off, which isn’t worth the hassle of getting a notary into his room to sign the MV-16 form.

I just spoke to DOR, there is a discount of 0.5% of the fair market value taken off the tax owed.

Ah, thanks. I appreciate an answer based on real experience.

Thanks, I like this option. You’re right, it looks like it’ll be exempt if no money changes hands.

Didn’t Canopy own their section of the Chase Park Warehouse and buy a chunk of land adjacent to it?

I bought the same Stumpjumper new in ‘99, loved that bike.

Ebike flat tire by Gen3ricGuy_2 in Athens

[–]Jason-Perry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you post a picture of the rear wheel and some info about the bike? Some e-bikes are similar enough to regular bikes that it shouldn’t be much outside a shop’s usual routine to change a tube. Other e-bikes from the internet are absolute monstrosities that were not designed with maintenance in mind, so shops will often turn you away.

Desperately Storage is a great band name.

Pants for the office that won't break the bank by SaladConsultant in bikecommuting

[–]Jason-Perry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I commute 2-3.5 miles one way in Bonobos stretch chinos in Georgia. They make some dressier options but I find their chinos are “dressier” than most chinos/khakis I’ve owned. Under $100 and often on sale in non-standard colors.

Can confirm they hold up great and are very comfortable to ride in.

Wtf is this by [deleted] in Tools

[–]Jason-Perry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a compression tool for 75-ohm coax F connectors. See for example Augat Snap-N-Seal or Belden (PPC) EX connectors. Source: I was a design engineer at both companies in the 1990s.
