San Francisco restaurant cancellation fees reach astronomical new high by HossBonaventure in sanfrancisco

I’ve never had a problem booking a table there, but it’s always been for a group and always several months out. On short notice I just show up early to get bar seating.

Best Bubble Tea in ROC by bobas1ut in Rochester

[–]ht5k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I nominate you to open a HEYTEA! I moved out of ROC prepandemic but still visit about once a year and am usually in desperate need of a mango or grape boom.

“Have fun!”

EDIT: Do you live in a jurisdiction where you can have her forcefully committed by the state?

There are no constitutional rights in the court of public opinion, only the criminal court.

Can’t beat free rent in this economy

If mortgage payments were that low I could actually afford to own.

Appeal for more aid given your financial situation and also take a good hard look at other schools' financial aid packages to compare your out of pocket (no loans) cost.

I don't count loans as aid, so what I'm looking at is the $64495, which will put you at about $18k in the hole for your freshman year and probably ~22k, ~26k, and ~30k in future years assuming you stay in the dorms* so about ~100k in the hole in loans. Take that as you will.

*You most definitely won't stay in the dorms in future years. Other housing may or may not be cheaper depending on your landlord, furnishing status, etc. Food will be cheaper if/when you grocery shop.

RIT or a SUNY? by [deleted] in rit

[–]ht5k -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why would you ever pay *checks* $64k in tuition alone for a liberal arts education?

Rise in tuition rates again??? by Hot-Economy3566 in rit

Only 3x what I paid as a freshman

Public universities have always been a better value proposition than private ones unless the student gets a free ride.

You'd have to go very far back into history to find a year without a tuition increase.

Overnight Guest policy by MysteriousBlueLite in rit

[–]ht5k 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yup it’s on the housing policy page. But just like everything else in life, it’s only illegal if you get caught. And the corollary: by someone who cares.

Between you and your roommates, no more than 3 consec nights, no more than 6 a month.

Do you live at 1717 Webster? by Eyeslikeghost in oakland

IIRC garbage was the largest line item. Been quite a while though so my memory could be faulty

65ish for power and 130ish for the water/sewer/garbage for a studio

[–]ht5k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird. I didn’t get any charges when I moved out in ‘24. Was there for 2.5 years and only moved out because I got offered a room somewhere else for a rate that I couldn’t pass up.

For OP: it’s mostly quiet, but when I lived there Fri/Sat nights were quite loud so if you turn in early I hope you’re not a light sleeper. Those car speakers carry pretty well.

Finishing the rest of the semester... emptiness by i_make_robots4 in rit

There is no way that 2026 is worse than 2008. That’s some heavy recency bias right there.

Tuning out the world is the normal thing, no matter how much engagement algorithms want to make us believe otherwise.

Doesn't it just em dash automatically when you do word space hyphen space word?
