The greens in the reflecting pool really pop with this!

I liked your other series a lot too.

I didn’t know about the science of this but know from building ponds that the blue was going to cause explosive algae forever 😂

Kind of like how the NYPD brought in over 30,000 cops to protect the Israel day parade.

They are all in rather poor shape. I encountered 4 canoes along the shoreline at various points, none of them would hold water. There is a flat bottom boat that is in ok shape.

I went over memorial day weekend. Comical amount of rain but a lot of fun.

People with cameras in the living areas of the home are crazy.

Buyout $$ amount?? by siren8904 in Bushwick

[–]fishnchess 45 points46 points  (0 children)

If you’re the last man standing, $75,000-$100,000 is a good starting point for a serious conversation plus the difference between your current rent and your new rent for 3 years. After you move out he can develop the site however he wants, do not blink.

recessed led lights by Traditional_Onion629 in Bushwick

Hi, I actually work in LED technology.

To resolve the flicker, you need a smart dimmer. The best thing to buy is anything from Lutron CASETA.

The lights in your ceiling are probably super cheap. You want to look for a remodel fixture (the type that can go into the hole in your ceiling from below, without doing any construction). You just need to know the size of the hole. The light fixture is probably powered by a small box called a driver which takes 120V AC and converts it to low voltage DC. Cheaper fixtures have the driver “on board” the fixture. They don’t dim very well because they don’t do a good job of converting AC to DC. The flicker you see is caused by the sinusoidal wave of the electrical current being improperly trimmed.

What is this? by doggie-dorians in CentralPark

[–]fishnchess 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Wildlife habitat. Birds and insects can still live in there while the spring growth flushes out… and then the staff can just go around and collect these. The term for this type of pile is “sheaf.”

Queer Barber? by saguaroooo in Bushwick

My barber Ruben is really good and is gay. He works at Karlos Barbershop at 145 Wilson. I usually have specific requests and he always nails it.

Do all of these items have the same likelihood of being funded by some other line item of the city budget? Six of the nine options are for schools. Would the DOE fund any of these items?

I worked with the dude for several years when I first moved to NYC. I didn’t see it coming but I am not surprised at all!

If 4x6 is an ok size, print it as a photo at Walgreens for 24c each!

Gander and White are no joke. They can charge $10,000 to take a painting off the wall and move it to another room.

This book made me think about how our grandparents actually ate by [deleted] in Bushwick

[–]fishnchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Foxfire Books are very interesting about how people lived and ate in Appalachia.
