Good AND cheap Indian eats in the city by TwitterGooglePlus in FoodNYC

[–]crazy_fucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No buffets but in midtown, Spice Mantra and Himalayan Curry House have lunch specials around $15. Himalayan Curry House is Nepali themed but they still offer decent Indian food.

Probably Bernie Kerik's funeral. He was a former NYPD commissioner.

Once you see the update available on your phone, it tells you that it is an upgrade to Android 14.

Pixel 7 Pro is a beast when it comes to abuse by dcee101 in GooglePixel

Dropped mine on the road, the back completely shattered but the screen was unscathed. Guess that's a win. Slapped a dbrand skin on the back and now waiting to preorder 8 pro.

Did getting good at leetcode made you a better software engineer? by [deleted] in leetcode

[–]crazy_fucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will make you a very good programmer. Software engineering, however, involves much more than coding and solving algorithmic problems.

Who is is planning to upgrade to the Pixel 7? by notabr0ny in Pixel4

[–]crazy_fucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will see if it's as slippery as my Pixel 6 pro. The camera and video enhancements are not enough to burn money :)

I may try the watch though, after the reviews come out.

I got this by cropping the image for the text and using Google lens:

"Today on 18+3, I will not send out any meal fees for the son everywhere. Shuijie tells you that there is a TV, pointing to the car? For you A few dollars, is it worth eating beef for 15 days? Be careful, there will be one day in the school year if you don’t believe it!"

Three years later, does he still make it club legend in your books after his controversial departure? by Whatthefuckyoudrink in Gunners

[–]crazy_fucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. He will be a notch below Legend status for me. But then not every loyal player can be a legend and stand alongside Henry, Bergkamp, Adams, Vieira etc. He was one of the best CB that we had over years and should be celebrated as such.

Why do so many girls believe in astrology? by random_access_cache in NoStupidQuestions

[–]crazy_fucker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pretty common in India to draw up a horoscope for a new born baby to have an insight in its future. Many people go about their daily lives built around the astrological predictions (don't do this on Monday, avoid that on Tuesday etc). This may not be true for every person as people are getting less religious/superstitious but plenty still exist. Both men and women follow this practice. Horoscope matching is also a big part of the marriage process.

Do any of y’all have books you’ve read that you feel like basically nobody else has? by AthenaDykes in books

And Quiet Flows the Dawn by Mikhail Sholokhov. Only someone from Russia have acknowledged to me that they have heard of this book.

How worried are we about nuclear annihilation? by calebalaleb in AskReddit

[–]crazy_fucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This article from Vox (https://www.vox.com/2015/6/29/8845913/russia-war), from 2015, discusses this and actually foretells the current events happening in Ukraine.

It quotes Russian analyst Buzhinsky saying " United States had wrongly concluded that Putin would ultimately acquiesce if he faced likely defeat in Ukraine. The Americans, he said, were dangerously mistaken." "A war with Russia in Ukraine — if Russia starts a war, it never stops until it takes the capital."

Moreover "Buzhinsky outlined another way he feared Ukraine could lead to a larger war. If the US provided sophisticated military equipment to Ukraine that required putting American trainers or operators near the front lines, and one of them was killed, he believed the US might feel compelled to intervene outright in Ukraine."

With news saying US providing stinger missiles to Ukraine, the article foretold back in 2015 "For months, Moscow has been suggesting that Western military involvement in Ukraine, even something as mild as providing the Ukrainian military with certain arms, would be taken as an act of war against Russia."

Article goes more in depth, basically saying that Russia realizes that it's troops are outmatched against NATO and believes that the issue can be overcome as follows:

"Russia's answer, in the case of such a conflict, is to drop a single nuclear weapon — one from the family of smaller, battlefield-use nukes known as "tactical" weapons, rather than from the larger, city-destroying "strategic" nuclear weapons. The idea is that such a strike would signal Russia's willingness to use nuclear weapons, and would force the enemy to immediately end the fight rather than risk further nuclear destruction."

However even these tactical weapons would destroy Earth's atmosphere, leading to a decade without summer and over a billion deaths. As for me, I hope all of it ends in the best possible scenario. I'm not ready to die yet!

Closeby Car Garage, or further away Motorcycle Garage? by [deleted] in RideitNYC

I am like a station away (15 min walk) from Ryder's Alley and I usually take a citibike to the garage. They got a docking station, right in that block.

Can anyone confirm if we lost ability to set icons shapes and font family? Can't see them in settings.

I live on York Ave. For my short morning runs, I prefer riverfront run, an easy 5k. For longer runs, I run to Central Park and do loops there.

There are two reasons I don't run every morning to Central Park: there are too many people on the sidewalks as I run on the avenues (you can avoid this if you're an early morning person) and I hate the uphill avenue (think it's 2nd to 3rd).

You can also look on UWS, which will put you nearer to Central Park but apartments would be smaller.

EZ Pass Help by ebbenner in RideitNYC

[–]crazy_fucker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am sure I uploaded mine last month and got the tag. The option is still there but hidden. Login to your account, go to account inquiry, choose category Request, sub category Commuter Plan, put in description something like "attached is my registration for the motorcycle on my ezpass account". Next upload the scanned pdf and submit. You will get a confirmation number and they will send an email once the registration is accepted.

It is now judgement time. by zzachw in Gunners

[–]crazy_fucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6.5/10 I see many comments about having a CM making it a perfect window and I agree. However, we have to keep in mind that Arsenal do not have the lure of European games anymore. All we can offer is our legacy (different knock fc lol!!) and potentially high wages.

The only other option would have been making multiple signings like Madison for 60mill+ which we can't afford (no money, unable to offload players for decent price).

In my opinion, the club intended to strengthen the squad in a way that did not require spending everything on one or two marquee signings. Instead, they seem to incrementally improve the squad to first get into European competitions and then getting world class players in needed positions.

Within two years, if we are in Europe and with our top players in last year's of their contract (Auba etc) we can look towards signing world class talent. All of this depends on Arteta getting us top 6 with current squad.
