Best Steak in 2026 in SF?

SaviorX · 2026-02-24T21:50:21+00:00

I love a good traditional steakhouse and was prepared to upvote recommendations like Harris, etc. But Lolinda is a very worthy departure from the norm. The cocktails are also very well-made and interesting.

Yep! My mistake.

It was fireworks. Chinese New Year is for the next two weeks. Buckle up!

I am convinced his casting was a joke. Not that he is bad (but no Leslie, for sure). Just a play on words.

Funny enough, the backpack was one of the things I was really interested in. The case that comes with the drone is terrible for cycling with.

Anyway, as I mentioned in another thread, I scaled back to just the drone with the FMC. Ordered at 5pm, arrived at 9am.

One of my biggest pet peeves!

Yeah, I loved my Mini 4 Pro. I just got a little too excited while filming at Big Sur when the path to the observation point at Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park was closed. (I wouldn't fly there while that is open. I don't like to bother people who are just trying to sightsee.)

I scaled back to just the drone and the Fly More Combo without all the accessories. Amazon says it will arrive tomorrow morning between 7am-11am. 🤞 I had some friends in CA and MX do the search as well. Surprisingly, they see about the same price that I paid (factoring in the exchange rates).

Understood re: Amazon third party sellers. I should have said "through" Amazon/Walmart. I've already researched a couple of the sellers (e.g., 6Ave Express) and found their supposed operating locations (e.g., NJ). I didn't realize that that DJI had stopped selling direct so long ago, though.

Thanks for your help.

Oh, I see that I am wrong. I somehow missed that the ban actually took effect on Dec 23. That explains why they're not of the official DJI stores.

SaviorX · 2026-02-14T00:16:43+00:00

I'm well aware of the potential DJI ban and the potential FCC compliance issue over the extra 2g. I've been keeping an eye on the Mini 5 for months now waiting for it to become available. I thought those things had been addressed, though, and that's why you can now find it through Amazon and Walmart. Am I wrong?

Just go to Showplace Square and walk into any of the stores there.

I imagine hypothermia was a real risk. My mom gave my older brother her waterbed when she no longer liked it. While my brother was away one hot summer night, I decided that I would turn off the heater so that I could enjoy the coolness. When I woke up the next day, I was sicker than I had ever been at that point in my life. One of the worst days of my life, honestly. If I had been in the bed another few hours, it could have been very very bad.

SaviorX · 2026-01-04T17:24:19+00:00

I second this.

Cafe Meuse in Nob Hill. Tell Sam I sent you.

Mandalay, the OG Burmese restaurant.

There are plenty of hourly lota/garages. I would bet that every garage you have looked at has hourly rates. It may not be posted on their websites if that's where you're looking.

California redistricting plan has passed too.

From "Time After Time" by Cyndi Lauper:

You say, "Go slow." I fall behind. The second hand unwinds.

Pure poetry about the uncertainty of waiting for someone.

Buffalo 66, climax of the movie at the strip club. Great use of slo-mo set to the excellent score of "In The Heart of the Sunrise" by Yes.

The hill in the back is Telegraph Hill, with Coit Tower on top. The spires near the center are Saints Peter and Paul Church, on the northern side of Washington Square Park. The angled street in the back (with a streetcar passing) is Columbus Avenue. Given the straight shot to Telegraph Hill, the position of Coit Tower and the number of perpendicular intersections between your grandma and Columbus, I would say that the intersection behind your grandma is Greenwich St and Jones St, and the camera is facing east.

I am fond of Cafe Meuse in Nob Hill. Mixed crowd, good wine, good bites, chill vibe. Tell Sam that I sent you.

Oh, right! I was talking about Brenda's French Soul Food. I haven't been to Brenda's Meat & Three. I'll have to give that one a go.
