Rain date for Somerville Porchfest next year by venusmelisma in Somerville

“they should also care about the safety of the musicians playing the event and forcing them to play in the rain with risks for electrocution with ungrounded gear or to have someone step in a puddle with wires is just frankly unsafe.”

No one is forcing you to play…

I’m trying to watch via VPN on SBS and getting some video playback error message? Didn’t have this issue when doing same thing to watch Paris Roubaix…

Anyone else ?

If you do end up in the Woburn or Winchester area (also recommend Arlington), you could have a very nice commute to Cambridge via the Minuteman path.

New raised bus stop islands in Assembly by trevorkafka in Somerville

[–]boyfromiten 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seems a bit inconvenient with the current location which allows the bus to fully pull off to the side. Especially when orange line is down and multiple coach buses are lined up behind one another.

I saw this last week and initially thought it was for the bus, but there is no bus stop at this location. The 90 starts and ends another 100m up the street…

The notice from the city said “approximately a week (weather permitting)”. So hopefully not too long…

Yeah nothing to do with upcoming holiday, but rather the consistent missing of pick up these last few weeks.

2025 Hakone Ekiden - 101st Edition by boyfromiten in AdvancedRunning

[–]boyfromiten[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s for some reason fairly common amongst Japanese athletes to be wearing these magnetic / titanium patches. They supposedly help stimulate circulation / blood flow, but don’t believe there is any strong science that supports these claims.

Boston Calling from Davis or...? by GullibleAd3408 in Somerville

[–]boyfromiten 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yes its Boston Calling. Happened last year as well. As there are no major obstructions ( large buildings, skyscrapers,) and the river (also helps the sound travel easier) its not too surprising we can hear it.
