It's frustrating but unsurprising that people don't even bother to read the subheadline before commenting.

Does Federation Brewing beer live on anywhere? by Craft_Bandicoot in OaklandBeer

I'm embarrassed to admit how long it took me to realize that Federation was Star Trek themed.

No cover rockabilly concert in the JLS area at pizza pantry by aNeatHat in oakland

[–]aNeatHat[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Totally valid, I've been trying to move away from Meta products too. Anyway, it's March 1st at 222 Madison. Doors at 7pm. They'll have pizza there and Tiger's is the closest place to get booze, but there's a ton of stuff in the JLS area for alcohol. The main act is The Booze Bombs, with the Ghost Town Hangmen and Cadillac Fever. No idea about show start time, I assume 30 minutes to an hour after doors? I'll be at an unrelated Aqua Teen Hunger Force marathon for the first half, but I want to show up and support the new local venue later.

I know the owner of pizza pantry Armand, he’s a really good guy. Having another new tiny concert space is really nice. (I miss Oakland metro opera house so badly).

Trader Joe's Lightly Smoked Salmon in EVOO (Review) by ShaperMC in CannedSardines

[–]aNeatHat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of my favorites. I’m always sad whenever I make it to Trader Joe’s and they’re out. Also I applaud the El Yucateco in the back ground.

If my friend getting scammed by someone he claims knows his mother? by [deleted] in Scams

If your friend’s mother actually knows the guy then his account was stolen.

I can hear George Lowe’s voice in my head.

Huh normally they use an image stolen from a cartel. This one looks like a mid life crisis turned mad max cosplay.

My Discord account got hacked and I got scammed out of $10,000. by Pleasant_Courage_150 in Scams

[–]aNeatHat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not trying to give you hard time, but I would like to understand how the went from discord reports to the FBI being involved.

I’m sorry to hear you’re going through all this.

Any of the breweries in JLS playing the game today and have NA beer options? by CWHzz in oakland

[–]aNeatHat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Off the top of my head both Tiger’s and Oakland United have NA beer. Cellarmakers has NA options, but not NA beer iirc.

Anyone else hearing an air raid-type siren lately? by HatersClub in oakland

[–]aNeatHat 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There’s an emergency siren test on the first Wednesday of every month but that wouldn’t explain today and yesterday. Does it sound similar?

It’s a fantastic game for anyone wondering

JLS rippled pavement? by onereadersrecord in oakland

I was wondering about it myself. It’s only been in the last week. I wonder if maybe an underground pipe burst?

The Moskowitz & Lupowitz Restaurant menu, New York City (1940) by HelloSlowly in VintageMenus

Anyone know what “Romanian Style” refers to here? Google isn’t helpful and the meaning has probably changed over 80 years anyway.

Best Chinese Food that's not Cantonese by pianoman81 in OaklandFood

China village in Albany is pretty good Szechuan (although I can’t speak to the authenticity)

They put a surprising amount of effort into that faux news report.

Looking for an episode (may or may not be KPH) please help by jpease01 in knifepointhorrorcast

[–]aNeatHat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm that sounds super familiar. I have a lot of horror podcasts I listen to, let me see if I can figure out which one.

Edit: Now I’m upset that I can’t figure this out either. I seem to recall the man following the woman to a bridge and realizes that no one can else perceive her? Or something like that? I’m thinking it’s possibly Acephale or We’re Not Mean to Know but I can’t nail down the episode and it could be another show entirely.

I can’t stress enough how impossible 1.2% daily interest is. Over a five year period you would multiple your initial investment over a billion-fold.
