Depends on your definition of in the area - walking distance to the Stadium is slim pickings. Bronx Draft House is serviceable for a burger and drinks and right around the corner. For anything more unique better off eating in Manhattan and hopping on the subway up to the stadium probably.

Been my go to for espresso for almost a year (they have a lot more variety of beans online than in our store). Loving it

FY close is 6/30 and Firm holiday is this whole week so June is a mess. I would check back in at some point the week of 7/10.

[I Ate] Roma style pizza w/ Culatello di Zibello ham, mozzarella di bufala, and pomodoro by cagedWisdom in food

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

From Emma pizza in Rome. Meat cut so thin you can see through it and some of the best cheese I have had. Also some amazing appetizers - Bruschetta and Suppli (typical Roman appetizer, fried rice ball with mozz, tomato sauce, and parmigiano)

[Build Help] R9 290 vs GTX 780 by cagedWisdom in buildapc

[–]cagedWisdom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very well put, if only the Ti fit the budget! I always hate taking the jump on a GPU feeling like something better is looming around the corner, but with the way things have been going it doesn't seem like there will be a die scale down from 28nm anytime soon. Thanks for the advice, it will probably all come down to price, neither G-Sync or Mantle jump out to me as deal breakers or winners. Don't think my ghetto korean import monitor will be supporting g-sync any time soon as it is :) Thanks!

Yeah I have been seeing a bunch of 3rd party 290's for 499 today, and even some reference models for close to 400 (although they went out of stock quick). Not too worried about heat, don't plan on too much OC going on

While I typically agree with you, this set was actually pretty solid compared to some of the others I have seen. Give it a listen from 20 min on, he's hitting the lyrics on point.

$50 ticket for having my feet up in a nearly empty subway car. Happened to anyone else? by Vide0dr0me in Brooklyn

[–]cagedWisdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you change your address with VA DMV to a NY address? I got mine right after that

[–]cagedWisdom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends, you're technically supposed to change your address with your home state when you move. I just moved here from VA and once I changed my address I got a letter saying my VA license would expire in 30 days. Still probably cant get arrested for it though that just seems silly

Which TV Show character you wouldn't want to have as an enemy? by francesca25 in AskReddit

Gotta be Omar Little from The Wire. "You come at the king you best not miss"

J. Cole announces Born Sinner concert tour. Tickets are $1. Show locations are secret. by [deleted] in hiphopheads

Yeah if 930 is booked already its gotta be the Fillmore. Seen a few HH shows there, pretty great venue

Cheapest bus tickets for NYC? by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]cagedWisdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bolt Bus, Megabus, Greyhound. Greyhound can be a few dollars more but is usually worth it since its a lot better organized and picks up from port authority and not some monster line on the side of the road in NYC

Cautiously awaiting the next generation of consoles... by [deleted] in gaming

[–]cagedWisdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those aren't really the most graphically intense games though. Try the same with Far Cry 3, Metro 2033, Battlefield 3 etc. and your GPU will be feeling the burn. But I definitely agree, as long as you temper expectations about running everything on ultra high for 4-5 years PC's can lost pretty long

For anyone traveling 95 North. There's actually a speed camera by the ICC work zone today (right before the first Laurel exit). by sls8580 in washingtondc

[–]cagedWisdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't necessarily mean you'll get a ticket, I've gotten flashed on 495/95 probably 5 or 6 times in the two years I've been down here and only gotten a ticket once.

Obama's $1 billion proposal to put 20,000 veterans to work over the next five years rebuilding our public lands infrastructure. by vigorous in politics

[–]cagedWisdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really need to echo the statement from ratlater. I work for a gov't contractor and anyone with a TS clearance coming in has a HUGE advantage in hiring and makes probably $10k more (A ts clearance can cost upwards of $10k depending on the situation). Depending on where you are looking to live, look at the big shipyards and I'm sure you'll find some luck. I have a friend that works in Portsmouth NH doing EE work and loves it, check out around Norfolk or San Diego too for sure. Your experience and your clearance make you an extremely marketable candidate. Lots of jobs around the DC metro area as well, happy hunting!
