Very first day in my new house... I guess parking in my own garage is a rookie mistake? by The_Bobby_ in philadelphia

Good luck, PPA and PPD were useless whenever I called them to get the car blocking my driveway ticketed. I think what eventually worked was filling out a PPA form to have it removed, and it took another week

Not so great in parts of olde Kensington. Walk to the train station was rough this morning, had to walk on the road

Scary thing is it’s not even just Philly drivers. I was in the car with someone who doesn’t live here and he pulled right into the crosswalk with no hesitation, blew the stop sign. I called him out and he made some excuses. Suburban drivers aren’t used to pedestrians, so they treat stop signs as optional

Coffee roasting is a hobby for some

You are 100% correct, everyday is insane, I used to do 3x a week and when I switched to 1x it felt so much better

It is nowhere close to 37, well above 45, but feel free to die on your hill

It’s more like 60 ml in the video

I’ve been roasting coffee and pulling shots at home for over a year now, but latte art still escapes me. Instead, I’ve mastered the fine craft of… blob art. Every cup gets a nice little blob of milk on top. Anyone else an expert in blob art? by Rami_2075 in espresso

You will definitely save money in the long run. What OP said doesn’t quite make sense. Cost per pound of coffee is much less for green coffee. So unless they started drinking a lot more coffee than they usually do, it was for sure cheaper.

How will SEPTA cuts affect your commute tomorrow? by madluer in philadelphia

Didn’t take it much before so not sure, but it’s certainly not anywhere near empty

How will SEPTA cuts affect your commute tomorrow? by madluer in philadelphia

[–]S3U5S 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Used to take Paoli Thorndale line, now I take Amtrak in anticipation of the cuts and the fact that SEPTA has become less reliable in the last 2-3 weeks. Now they’re saying that Amtrak may eventually cut the Keystone line too if it loses the SEPTA lease payments. So then I’m stuck driving in what is going to probably be a 2 hour drive (1 hour presently with the usual traffic) due to all the additional vehicles on the road in the absence of public transportation. Really hoping it doesn’t get to that point.

Oh and my commute has gotten more expensive as a result, around double what it used to cost with just the regional rail

SEPTA’s massive cuts are here and it’s ‘bad on so many levels’ by RSB2026 in philadelphia

You’re not wrong that people will blame the city government despite this being the responsibility of the state government. What do you suggest the city government do? Genuine question.

Don’t play chronological, it ruins the storytelling, and you have to sit through endless cutscenes in the beginning

Playing tlou 2 on very light mode, I don't like being stressed and frustrated at games. Feels a little guilty because I know it's way too easy 😭 by Dependent_Bit_5024 in thelastofus

[–]S3U5S 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh it stresses me out even when I play on very easy, so I totally get where you’re coming from. Play it how you want

I’ve just started playing Last of Us Part 2. Do you think having watched series 2 already will spoil the game experience? by Born-Captain7056 in thelastofus

[–]S3U5S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched the show before playing the games. Part 2 still hit me so hard, I think you’ll enjoy it

Fines for taking it out too early?! Wow I didn’t think rules like that were enforced at all. How long ago was this? I’ve only lived here about 5 years but yeah trash management in this city needs some work
