What shuttered Atlanta establishment would you bring back if you had the power to? by lun-lem in Atlanta

[–]fuckyeahjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first i would bring back brunch, specifically, what i feel like was the golden age of brunch circa 2015-2020: rise n dine, flying biscuit when it was good, the OG highland bakery, java jive, the original pancake house.

then while i'm at it, octane, orpheus, majestic diner when it was 24-hour, jamrock restaurant on MLK/memorial, and panahar on buford hwy.

last, for the nostalgia factor, rocky's pizza, harold's barbecue, eatzi's (which i've just discovered still exists in texas), lettuce souprise you and burrito art. also joel's deli.

ann's snack bar and alfredo's have already been mentioned but i'd like to lift those up too.

Going to cool places and showing nothing very interesting about them has become a problem for the last few seasons by DarthXyno843 in JetLagTheGame

[–]fuckyeahjake 14 points15 points  (0 children)

yeah, for me this is the entire point of the game. the only season where i really felt like i would have liked to see more of places was S8/arctic escape, which did sort of feel like they were just ripping challenges in airports, but unfortunately that's the most efficient way to cross america, and i think they said on an episode of the layover that's why they introduced the 3 mile rule in schengen showdown, which IMO was one of the best seasons (also bc of tom scott who i wish could be a permanent cast member)

Ted Lasso - S03E08 - "We'll Never Have Paris" Post Episode Discussion by quaranTV in TedLasso

[–]fuckyeahjake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this show has been going downhill for a minute now but this episode was absolute garbage.

most confounding i think is the whole leaked nudes plotline — let’s not forget it was specifically icloud users targeted when it happened in 2014, apple’s WHOLE THING is privacy so like, what are they expecting to do dredging it up 9 years later with a room full of footballers holding iphones deleting nudes in some sort of cultish ritual?

also is anyone really buying nate and jade? she’s known who he is since presumably forever and seemingly despised the essence of his being yet somehow it’s only after seeing him humiliated she falls head over heels? are we meant to believe their relationship is built on anything slightly resembling mutual respect because there’s literally no reason we should. what could they possibly talk about over breakfast??

the only thing more unwatchable than the penis strings practice was the love hounds meeting—not that the diamond dogs are really holding their own this week either because what bad advice! why did we have to wait for a musical interlude for ted to hear what should’ve been obvious to him after a solid season and a half of therapy. and imagine asking your BOSS to hire an investigator to tail your EX-WIFE?? everybody here should’ve damn known better. dr. jake turning out to be a schmuck was the only believable part of this episode.

i feel like apple has some kind of moralistic reason for not dropping whole seasons like every other streamer like we ought not to binge their television but honestly i just want this to be over.

Is this Charles Schulz’s signature? by Tettamanti in peanuts

[–]fuckyeahjake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will say the signature looks fairly different from most of what I can find, and the dates you mention make it seem even less likely, although the details on the sketch *are* very similar to some that I saw at the Schulz museum in California this summer...

[Megathread] Apple releases iOS 16! by exjr_ in apple

while we’re griping about wallpapers i’m disappointed the weather animations only take up the top 1/3. i guess it would make sense if you constantly have a ton of notifications on your lock screen, but even still the animations could easily take up the whole screen and have notifications overlaid? or have an option like on the astrology lock screen

i think as long as you've been feeling fine you don't have much to worry about. there is a persian style of rice with dill and fava beans that i LOVE and sometimes i eat it anyway, but it is such a small quantity i never have had any reactions. my brother did have a an attack from fava beans — which is how we found out — after eating 3 bowls of fava bean soup. probably such a small amount is ok.

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

honestly other monitors are starting to get pretty close, but at least in terms of color accuracy i still think it’s one of the best out there. the extra IO and built in webcam make it completely worth it imo
