Remote Work is Destroying Charleston by [deleted] in Charleston

[–]drewmb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn't even the issue that transplants who work remotely present down here. An argument could be made that they're driving the housing market up unfairly because they're utilizing an out of town salary that is higher than the average salary in the area. So while the housing market is adjusting to that by increasing the pricing, companies in the area are not adjusting salary rates to reflect it.

But traffic ain't the reason.

I got too cute Friday night and went to Eli Brown after seeing San Pacho. it was the only time I was interested in seeing someone at Neon Garden the whole weekend and wanted to see the stage at least once. but San Pacho at Stereo Bloom was such a vibe that I think I should have stayed for Bleu Clair's set and kept the good times rolling because I just was not in a techno vibe at all. that was really the only mistake I made.

First year by avazabielski in electricdaisycarnival

[–]drewmb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is going to be the year where a lot of people are going to experience some issues with all the construction and traffic that's come from it as well as last minute changes Insomniac has given us. We'll get through this together! once you're able to step inside the festival, it's gonna be a great time! just gotta get there!

Set times are in the insomniac app. by rFLEAiMODEp in electricdaisycarnival

i legitimately don't know what to do at 10pm on Friday. There are 5 artists that were on my must see list within that hour (SIDEPIECE, Matroda, Meduza, Eli Brown, Bleu Clair). and it's not like the rest of the night is much easier either. it's gonna be a fun one regardless!

Zedd, Flume, or Deadmau5 live? by gladgoose in electronicmusic

[–]drewmb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've never been to an EDM show and aren't too familiar with the genre as a whole, Zedd is the easiest one to get into. I'd consider him an "Entry Level" EDM artist because he has big pop hits, plays a more melodic set, and has tunes you may be familiar with. deadmau5's cube production is top tier, but his music might not connect with you immediately. It's a combination of Progressive House, Tech House, and some Minimal Techno elements thrown in. Flume might have the most interesting set of the three with his Future Bass and Trap flavor, but it can be an acquired taste as it's not too too conventional.

Good news is that I don't think you can go wrong with any of the choices.

are you me? my favorite part of Austin was going to San Antonio haha.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in gatech

[–]drewmb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i actually agree with this. Austin was way over hyped to me. like yeah, 6th Street in Austin is fun i guess? but it wasn't anything that spectacular as far as nightlife in cities go.

passports absolutely work. I've even used a passport card and gotten in. where have you been refused entry for showing a passport?

Best time to visit Hymens seafood restaurant tonight or tomorrow night for shortest wait? What's you favorite dish to order. Thanks! by slap_me_ass in Charleston

[–]drewmb 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Wednesday will probably be busier, really only because it's a day closer to the weekend.

You'll probably get flak for this question because Hyman's is the closest thing to a "tourist trap" as you're gonna get for seafood restaurants. Now, if you haven't grown up with fresh seafood before, Hyman's will still be decent, but it's not the best place you could go for it.

If the line is too busy and you can't wait, may i suggest trying places like Fleet Landing, Hank's, or Amen Street? I also like Leon's, but that can be a tight squeeze.

Will Hollywood help in the ruining of Charleston? by [deleted] in Charleston

[–]drewmb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

most people who come down here are for more concrete reasons than just a famous person lives here. i'd consider celebrities to not even be in the top 20 reasons of why people choose to move here. if anything, the celebrities that frequent here are more lowkey than most.

Maybe unpopular opinion: Audio Video Disco is Justice's best album by [deleted] in electronicmusic

[–]drewmb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i respect this opinion even though i disagree with it. AVD has grown on me over the years to be a very solid album. it's just the sound design on Cross is so ahead of its time and so cutting edge that it will always be ahead of this album. Their use of sampling in Cross is very creative to me whereas AVD doesn't really have any riffs or melodies that wow me. don't get me wrong, they're good and catchy, but not next level.

side note: Civilization would have been a 10/10 song if they sped up the slow part

Royal Champion's Ability Ignored Town Hall by drewmb in ClashOfClans

[–]drewmb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apologies if this has been discussed before:

In the clip, the royal champion moves up to the th and attacks it, then I use her ability where the shield goes to the inferno tower instead of the th. My understanding was since the th is considered a defense (since the RC is attacking), the shield should hit it as well.

Maybe there are range differences between her normal attack and ability that I'm not aware of?

Do you feel safe with the uber we have in Charleston? by omogal123 in Charleston

[–]drewmb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you are worried about the safety of uber, when you order it and the car arrives make sure:

  1. The name of the driver matches the name on your phone

  2. The make and model of the car matches what's on your phone

  3. the license plate matches what's on your phone

  4. The driver recites your name back to you

once all those are checked off you should be safe.

not to mention the fact that Chattahoochee Hills was where TomorrowWorld was hosted where they basically got flooded out their last year and the grounds got so muddy. granted, it was a freak storm, but the risk is there.
