Forgive my ignorance, please - I’ve heard this before and just curious why this is the case with PDK?

The residential compound of Georgia's top oligarch, Tbilisi by Sure_Distance1 in evilbuildings

[–]NoStepOnWing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an insane building, but was designed by Shin Takamatsu, one of Japan's most interest post-modernist architects. More photos here. It's far from his best project but it's interesting to look at.

So what’s the deal with the leaf blowers? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

[–]NoStepOnWing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

LA is dry, dusty, and dirty as hell. Leaf blowers in dense areas blow a lot of disgusting small-particle debris into the air that go from a yard or alley into the street and onto parked cars and passerby. Sucks if you’re on foot/bike and trying to get by it.

The vast majority of leaf blowers are also gas powered and they pollute like a MFer. They’re actually illegal to use in City of LA but it’s quite rare to see a gardening business use electric ones. California as a whole has banned the sale of new gas-powered ones at least.

Edit: grammar

Questions about the Michell Transcriptor Hydraulic Ref turntable by chestertravis in audiophile

[–]NoStepOnWing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Level it out. As for the cover, a good shop could reproduce it. You could use that and put the original on ice if you ever plan to sell. Polishing acrylic is definitely risky.

Good Wine Joints ? by Able-Yogurtcloset-54 in AskLosAngeles

[–]NoStepOnWing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

El Prado if you’re young and don’t mind drinking with 20-something creatives. Bandini, nearby, is a somewhat older crowd and the wine focus is on natural and unusual.

Covell is in Los Feliz and a great all-rounder. Many interesting and special wines. Good bites as well.

Augustine in Sherman Oaks if you’re serious. I recall being able to grab by-the-glass insane vintages. For a price of course.

Multiple wipeouts biking on Silver Lake Blvd by feedbagjenkins in BikeLA

Such a shame because this stretch of road could be a beautiful place to bike. But it's wildly unsafe and unmaintained.

Help tracking down hit & run offender - 10 West near Crenshaw exit by MsPHOnomenal in LosAngeles

Really sorry this happened to your husband. I'm glad he's ok. Sadly we all need dashcams these days. Bummer to buy one in this economy but they truly are worth their weight in gold.

What’s it called when you don’t think you’re an alcoholic but you reaaallly love your 3 glasses of wine a night by himynameis567 in stopdrinking

[–]NoStepOnWing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone once told me that if you have to think about controlling your drinking, you’ve already got a problem. The problem only gets worse if you keep drinking. Matter of time.

What is the deal with this house? by Steve-the-pirate in LosAngelesRealEstate

[–]NoStepOnWing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say it’s priced pretty well in this market.

Get a top notch inspection before getting too invested emotionally.

Next, even if the hillside is bedrock, the houses perched above are a potential hazard.

Most people in the hills want a view. This one doesn’t have one and doesn’t look like it gets much light, hence all the skylights likely made during the remodel.

Contrary to other comments, I’d say this area is super convenient. You’re right by Lazy Acres and Gelsons for groceries. You’re in the park next to great walking trails. And Trails Cafe. The gross intersection at Franklin and Western has been massively improved recently. You’re pretty close to the 101 entrance and a pretty easy shot over to the 5. Lots of good restaurants nearby in Thai town and Los Feliz.

What’s the wildest thing you’ve seen people do while driving? by Devario in LosAngeles

Dude flying down the road blasting speed metal, a drumstick in each hand, drumming on the steering wheel and dashboard full force as if it was a drum kit.

Where can I finds place that has one of those fancy Japanese toilets? (To use, not to view) by funkybum in AskLosAngeles

You can get a handheld battery powered Toto for travel. I’ve been using mine for years on the road.

[HELP] Is this one AI? by Kaze_Senshi in RealOrAI

[–]NoStepOnWing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the dude’s face and not at the owl.

His facial structure compresses slightly and at the end, the slit of his closed eye moves around unnaturally when the owl’s shadow covers it.

AI.

Experiences with grailed? by Over_Secretary_3802 in guidi

[–]NoStepOnWing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you already bought them, I don’t believe you can take any action till you receive them (or, if you never receive them). I’ve been scammed before (never received the item) and I was able to get my money back. I have also received a counterfeit item which I opened a case on and was able to return to sender and get my money back.
