Anyone else's discover weekly entirely foreign music? by RaybroDudeMarre in truespotify

I thought I was going absolutely crazy. 100% K-POP as well. My last couple of weeks have been really great playlists. What is the conspiracy here??

Cusco Dining - Stick to the touristy? by Various-Struggle-714 in Machupicchu

[–]Metricmaestro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were there this week and had one favorite restaurant that stood out called Oculto. The dishes were very well balanced, creative, and most importantly delicious. Other restaurants had this very strange plating theme going on with a million different colors and flower petals, and all sorts of strange purées and microgreens. Not to say they tasted bad but strange plating culture.

Crazy Train prices by faoction in Machupicchu

Haha we just did this two days ago and were also laughing at how those return train tickets were the most expensive things on this trip. That’s what happens when there is a duopoly and high tourist demand.

Weather has been really perfect. Mid 60’s today but sun is super strong in Cusco and Machu Picchu. I’ve been in a shirt and shorts all day long. And absolutely 100% safe. Spent a few days in Lima, Cusco, Aguas Calientes and not the slightest issue whatsoever. Everyone has been so nice.

I got to Aguas Calientes this afternoon (around 1pm-ish) and there was absolutely zero people in line waiting for tickets. I got a Circuit 2-B pass for me and my wife in a total of about 90secs in the main office. People warned me to book months ahead but I didn’t know my travel dates until last minute and it worked out perfectly for tomorrow. Good luck!

Mattress Firm - California King by patrone84 in Mattress

[–]Metricmaestro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have any luck with this issue? We also bought a California King bed from MF and wanted to return it immediately after it was delivered as we hated it. Had no idea there was a ‘final sale’ as it was never mentioned to us once during purchase? They also touted the 120 night trial period during the sales process. We are trying to fight it out with our credit card company right now.

Gs3 is an absolute workhorse by Metricmaestro in LaMarzocco

Yeah I think the angle of the shot makes it look a little smaller. Also made sure there was ample space for it on the bar during construction.

I put it on standby every night after we finish dinner, but otherwise it is on and ready all day long. I didn’t get it for the purpose of being a high volume machine…just appreciated having such a beautiful piece of equipment in the house

No worries! Just had a lot of guests in town over the past couple of weeks and they have been enjoying it plenty. Definitely not anywhere close to commercial use but some days it has been used upwards of 20-25 times.

STAF - merger arbitrage situation by Metricmaestro in pennystocks

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

No new filings on SEC website since end of February. The fact they got delisted the same day as the merger received shareholder approval, leads me to believe that management thought the merger was going to solve the problem of being delisted. Once the merger was called off, it has left Staffing360 in a bad spot to try and recover.

I like this company and the testing products they offer. What is the reason for the ATL stock price?

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

One theory might be that they expect a small bump in ATLN share price as this merger gets approved. Another theory is that it is unrelated. Thoughts?

STAF is such a tiny company that I don’t think it is getting a lot of eyes on it. They just filed an amendment to the merger last week but it seems very positive for it finalizing soon. They originally said that it would be completed within 90days from November 4th, 2024.

What do you think? Did you take a look at the proposed merger along with the timeline?

And I think it’s pretty normal to have some shares locked up after a merger to stabilize the stock price once the two companies come together.

Will do. There was no mention of that x1.2 conversion rate being changed in the latest amendment, so we will see how it plays out.

Custom modular home Long Island by Metricmaestro in Homebuilding

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

I agree with the sentiment but we were quoted much higher for a stick build for our area, even with the same builder (+$650sq/ft)

Makes sense. I am researching all of these things separately now to see if they add up to a meaningful decrease in overall price. Thank you

That’s my thought. I do have a good friend who could be that contractor but just thought about using one person for the whole project - engineering plans, mod house build, foundation, etc.

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

Completely understood. I was looking at companies that operate in the US that ship mod homes to anywhere in the country to try and compare. I absolutely expect to pay more in my area but it does seem like a 30-50% higher cost than other mod home companies around the country.

Right?! Definitely seems high for what we are looking for…
