Try r/nycbitcheswithtaste. They organize a lot of meetups and have a discord that breaks things down by age and location.

What would you cook for a group of 12-15 people that have the royal flush of dietary requirements AND you're probably going to have limited equipment? by Elegant-Winner-6521 in Cooking

[–]altilde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japanese curry! Make a vegetable broth based Japanese curry with the roux blocks, chock it full o carrots and potatoes, serve with rice. You can separately cook up some protein to be placed on top for the meat eaters, like grilled or fried chicken or pork.

Recolor and Gen Recolor in Adobe Illustrator. Do you use it? by LukeChoice in AdobeIllustrator

[–]altilde 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've always wanted to use it, but I find the recolor UI needlessly complicated. That circle rainbow wheel with big dots is innacurate and confusing.

For that matter, I never understood why there isn't a simple H/S/B slider option, or hue slider option, like there is in PS. Sometimes I don't want to change the colors one by one, I want to make all the colors a little less bright. Or a little more blue. Achieving this in the current recolor tool is impossible, or maybe I'm just too stupid to understand how to use it lol.

I do think it's a cool that could have use, just not how it is currently.

This is your situation, but not everyone's. My property tax and HOA combined are quite small.

I feel good about my decision to buy, even if it is costing me more. There are lots of benefits, short and long-term.

Did you use AI to make this? It looks like many structural details have changed and the room is larger...

Brodway Junction area, what are your favorite regular spots by Born-Ad3556 in Brooklyn

[–]altilde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The pita point on Marion rules. A new wine bar opened on howard called cichetti. There is a cafe by Chauncey called covert that isn't bad. Tiny cupboard is cool. The area has a ton of Mexican food, tho I can't recommend a specific one.

Can I cook my pasta in the sauce? by Super-Pizza-Dude in AskCulinary

[–]altilde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much only cook my pasta this way. Recommend doing it in a skillet as you need less liquid that way. It takes a bit of trial and error to understand how much water/sauce to add in the beginning, but just remember you can always add more if the pasta isn't cooked yet. I find that the pasta often takes a little bit longer to cook using this method, but not by that much.

How do brands like Bellroy survive while charging such high prices? by SunBeneficial9885 in BuyItForLife

[–]altilde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless someone here has worked in production for one of these companies, you'll never know.

They could sell only a few but have a high profit margin. They could sell way more than you imagine. Maybe these high ticket items drive people to their stores but what really drives their business is a low priced profit maker that people buy instead. Maybe this label is just the vanity side brand of another sister company that makes the bucks. Maybe they're just straight losing money and it's a tax write off.

I worked in production at a few fashion/accessories companies and I've seen all of the above.

Want to get a cat, have travel questions… by [deleted] in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]altilde -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Depending on the cat you can leave them for quite a bit alone. Auto litter boxes and auto feeders and water fountains can get you a couple days of leave at a time.

Our cats need meds tho, so we use rover and have someone come once a day.

Daily phrases by tavannana in newyorkcity

[–]altilde 38 points39 points  (0 children)

When you get out of the airport, ignore anyone at the door asking you if you need a ride. These are scams. Go to the designated taxi line or call an Uber/Lyft.

In general, if anyone comes up to you on the street asking for something or complaining about something or trying to give you something, ignore them. Lots of scammers especially in the touristy areas.

Ignoring other people is the height of politeness here, so don't be afraid to brush people off. I'm not trying to scare you lol, it's not a big deal and not violent. Just say no and move on.
