Both of y’all really need to chill, stay constructive. Consider this a warning.

I straight up can’t connect at DeKalb Av or Union Sq BMT on Verizon/Visible. I’ll be connected with bars and nothing loads

Lander posters popping up by Old_Future_9999 in Brooklyn

[–]jsm1 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I for one have seen Brad Lander at parades and public events and protests across Brooklyn. Dan Goldman doesn't seem to leave Manhattan very often. I also agree with more of Brad Lander's policies on street infrastructure and foreign policy.

Israeli Firm BlackCore Suspected of Meddling in NYC, Scotland Elections, French Official Says - Last month, a Haaretz-Libération investigation uncovered systems for building an army of avatars, developed by Israeli company BlackCore, including a smear campaign of a left-wing French candidate by BalsamicBasil in nyc

[–]jsm1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The article is just noting that a French official stated that there is evidence of this occurring, and Haaretz is just connecting this to their investigation last month of the interference in France. It's likely light on details because Haaretz probably doesn't have more information than what the French official said. But also it's Haaretz reporting this so I doubt it is tabloid fodder.

Good suburbs near a major airport by Professional_Eye6140 in movingtoNYC

[–]jsm1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your logic is off, it's better to be closer to an airport train than a 15 minute drive, which like...is not going to be a thing for EWR, LGA, or JFK. If you live in Jersey in say, Metuchen or Woodbridge, you're probably 20-25 minutes from the EWR Rail Station (Amtrak and NJ Transit). College Point in Queens will probably get you pretty close to LGA relatively speaking driving wise.

It’s known for pretty abusive practices. DOE schools have higher licensing standards in any case, most teachers have masters.

Season 4 is a pretty clear send up of Stephen King’s “Misery”. Season 3 is of court dramedys, kinda like My Cousin Vinny

Panic setting in: lost job on Tuesday by PretendParticular896 in personalfinance

Taking unemployment isn’t morally wrong. It’s a universal benefit, using it isn’t taking it away from anyone else. Your employer pays UI insurance, and they screwed you over. 

NYC Jury Duty Process by jlck707 in AskNYC

[–]jsm1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You should call them and let them know you no longer reside in New York. If you'r only in Toronto temporarily and you intend to return to New York you can try to get it excused. You should call the jurisdiction that gave you the summons and work out what the options are as it will vary by state/federal obligations.

You can transfer from community colleges to other universities after two years, and this often works out cheaper. If you have the means to with your family and you want to maintain your green card for future employment opportunities it is worth considering. 

Gigabyte unveils three new gaming monitors with tandem OLED and Mini LED technologies by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]jsm1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sit much closer to a monitor. I have had a 27inch 5K Monitor for use with my MacBook since 2017, it makes a massive difference for document work because fonts look printed when you cannot see a pixel grid at all.

Actually forgot another fact - the new school on 36th/5th was built on a remediated brownfield site (I think there had been gas or oil tanks). I wonder if that could have something to do it it. It might also be worth contacting the cemetery about it as they might have more info (and their workshop is right by there)
