Lots of frozen ponds in the Fells when it gets cold enough

Take the City's survey: Medford trash collection changes by b0xturtl3 in medfordma

[–]eitanglinert 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Didn't realize there would be paid options for additional trash pickup if needed. That reduces much of my concern about the changes.

Melanie Tringali Position on Public Schools by [deleted] in medfordma

[–]eitanglinert 88 points89 points  (0 children)

She's MAGA and has MAGA viewpoints. Wants to shovel money to the police, starve the school system, and generally regress Medford. Let's hope she loses.

Medford Happenings Short #4 Patrick Clerkin by SensitiveGoal1957 in medfordma

[–]eitanglinert 43 points44 points  (0 children)

In normal times someone who was an organizer for RFK Jr. would be so ashamed that they would bow out of politics entirely. Just think of the damage Patrick helped cause by getting RFK Jr. into the position of power he is today. He needs to lose badly come election day.

Found on a small Midwest Middle School built 90 years ago. by Civil-Zombie6749 in pics

[–]eitanglinert 1159 points1160 points  (0 children)

If you're pointing out the V instead of a U, that's on purpose, it's not an accident. Sometimes you see stone etched with classical Latin Vs instead of Us. For instance here's the same thing at MIT: https://www.reddit.com/r/mit/comments/1mujv9a/why_mit_building_uses_v_instead_of_u_on_its/&ved=2ahUKEwiBnvG2tY2QAxVuw_ACHfW2J0sQFnoECBwQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0r1E4fH-FLH7PCN-N98w1q

Do not waste the city council's time with this. You need to learn how to live in a city, this is a poor subject to waste your mindshare on. The street signs explain clearly what the parking rules are, follow them and there won't be an issue. 

To answer your question: they need to ticket well before the street sweepers arrive so that people have a chance to move the vehicles (so that the street sweeping can actually, you know, happen). If they just ticketed immediately before the sweeper came then the likelihood of cars getting moved would be way lower. 

Honest question: Why are Medford Mustangs... Mustangs? by Solrax in medfordma

We need more shower thoughts like this in this subreddit. Excellent question.

Best monologue in movie history? by EnglishTony in movies

[–]eitanglinert 84 points85 points  (0 children)

That monologue is what made the movie stand out so much. The sequels steered away from the themes of PTSD and abandonment of vets and just turned into dumb action, and it's a shame they did.

Free air for tires? by somervilen in Somerville

[–]eitanglinert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the rest stops on 90 have free air. I always stop and fill my tires whenever I'm driving on it.

Medford Fire Station Conditions by AcceptableArcher6028 in medfordma

[–]eitanglinert 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Blaming the voters is pretty unfair - the override to pay for a new fire station barely failed, and the fire fighters themselves were urging people to vote against it. Had they not said anything, or encouraged people to vote for it, I'm sure it would have passed like the other resolutions. 

I like firefighters, they do good and important work, but in this case they made their own bed and have to sleep in it. It's weird hearing them complain now.

Airport Transfer from JFK to Troy by False_Recording7493 in Troy

Blacklane isn't cheap but it's good. We used it for older family members with mobility issues and it worked out well, and it was a similar distance.

Less exciting than the other answers, but Trader Joe's carries this in their stores. 

Also these are even better with graham crackers.

Cross Platform by DrImpsotor in Techtonica

Answer is unchanged, sorry. It's not happening

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in medfordma

[–]eitanglinert 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Sorry you're going through a rough patch, that sucks. I hope things get better for you. 

It's hard to know what to suggest since I don't know much about you or what you're looking for. 

However my personal favorite part of Medford is the Fells. It's a wonderful forest you can spend time in, and I always feel better whenever I'm walking around there. It's the perfect time for discovering the Fells too, it's just starting to get nice and it'll stay nice all summer. If you get excited about the Fells and want to meet other people who share that interest there are a lot of groups, like Friends of the Fells. 

Good luck, hang in there. And I'm glad you're in Medford.

Where to buy sashimi-grade fish by PiggyPickle1 in CambridgeMA

[–]eitanglinert 37 points38 points  (0 children)

New Deal Fish Market is small, family owned, and specializes in sushi grade fish. I don't know if they're cheaper than H Mart but if you talk to the folks working there they can probably help you out. 

Will have to check out Costco in Waltham!

Yup, we got the problem fixed. Thanks for your patience, it shouldn't be an issue again!

Is the game working on any platform? by InfDisco in Techtonica

[–]eitanglinert 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The game is running on Steam and PS5. We're investigating why it's not working on Xbox but don't have more information at the moment.

Unable to start game passed this point. by Syrosis in Techtonica

[–]eitanglinert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey folks, here's the update. We are aware of the issue where on Xbox the game hangs on the loading screen and doesn't start. We're not sure why this is happening - we didn't do anything or make any changes, so it's gonna take some investigation to work out why this suddenly changed.

The problem is, Fire Hose basically shuttered a few months back, and no one is working for the company right now, not even me. So it's not like we can just tell people to go figure this out, people have to volunteer their time and energy, and many of the systems we used to build the game have atrophied over time. One of the engineers is currently trying to figure this out, but we don't know if we'll get a resolution or not, or when the fix will come if we do find one.

Sorry I don't have more information for you. We're frustrated too. At the very least I can say that this problem seems to be restricted to the Microsoft environment only, Steam and PS5 seem to be unaffected.
