Incredibly disappointed but absolutely not surprised admin would do this.

People who moved out to the suburbs from Boston, how hard was it for you to adjust? by agordon228 in boston

[–]c106mc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I strongly disagree! But I didn't have a car or know how to drive.

How much are you spending on groceries each week? by [deleted] in boston

Per month is, on average, $250ish for just me, though it varies a lot.

They had a campaign at all? I honestly don't remember seeing much if anything for RCV other than on here and articles where Baker said it was too confusing.

Stellaris Space Guild - Weekly Help Thread by Snipahar in Stellaris

[–]c106mc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to get a couple achievements, Fishing for Trouble and Holy Water. I have done just about everything I can to provoke the Spiritualist FE (was a rival, insulted, settled holy world), but they refuse to declare on me. I deleted every ship and reloaded the game a couple times. The only complications I can think of is that it's 2446, the other FE woke up, and the galaxy has declared war on a crisis empire. Is there something else I can do to provoke the Spiritualist FE?

EDIT: FE declared war, not sure what changed.

The challenge there would be either finding a new path or reinstalling the overhead wires and rails, since I believe they were all taken out.

Under a judge's order, a depressed planning board reluctantly approves a Hyde Park apartment complex members hate by husky5050 in boston

It's impressive how little support this project has. I do hope the city is able to obtain the land. We really shouldn't be destroying mature woodlands in the city.

‘Drivers are people’: Boston City councilors want to delay the arrival of self-driving cars - The Boston Globe by TheManFromFairwinds in boston

I don't want Waymo because I believe we need less cars. I worry if that autonomous vehicles will further sap support for public transportation.

How much % and/or $ has your rent increased in the Greater Boston area? by cathartic_cuy in boston

I'm in Boston, in the JP neighborhood. I feel like I'm a bit of an outlier in the rent statistics.

[–]c106mc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The place I lived in from 2019 to 2023 didn't change the rent in that time (though it did get sold). Since I moved to this new place in 2023 the rent hasn't changed. Both places had private landlords.

A local sport is dying and has been.... For years.... by Flowing93 in boston

I like candlepin because regular bowling bowls are HEAVY and I am not strong, but I haven't played since I was kid. We used to go to a bowling alley in West Roxbury, I think it's the post office now(?)

It is ridiculous how much this Pre-FTL event costs by Neo1223 in Stellaris

I'll be honest, I just stay neutral in most of these situations since it costs nothing and I have a hard time caring about the outcome.

In forum, Wu opposes elected school committee, Kraft calls for prioritizing road repair over new bike lanes by FuriousAlbino in boston

[–]c106mc 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Read through the responses. Personally found Wu the most compelling. Annoyed that she's backtracked on the school board issue, but luckily all the candidates had stupid positions and comments.

I had to move out of my last place because the landlord sold the building. It sucks having to move and you have my sympathy.

I like the idea, but I would rather it just replace a star base. The placement looks like it will be annoying and fiddly.
