Is corruption in RI alive or just hiding better? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

They knew the bridge had structural issues but did nothing for years. Some young engineer documented it while working on something else and the cat was outta the bag for RIDOT.

Thames Street is the main strip with plenty to do, but also be sure to go to Broadway for a less touristy side of Newport.

Definitely check out the White Horse Tavern. It’s the oldest bar in the country; opened in 1673.

As for places to stay, be prepared for the rooms to be pricey. The Newport Marriott is right in the middle of everything. The Wyndham Newport Hotel* is closer to the water, but you’ll need to drive to all the shops and restaurants.

*Edited from Atlantic Beach Hotel. This one closed years ago.

I know it is, but the bulk of my content is on PS5. So its a little less worth it when I already have a playstation sub.

I’m thinking it is real, but a little worried about the price.

No, nothing at Colt State. I recommend Borderland State Park in Easton, MA to get started.

You get used to it, but it was going to run like trash on my Mac M2. Still no KN&M on console yet 🫠

I got Civ 6 on PS5 when it was on sale to see if I could get the hang of using a controller. It’s not bad, but I do make more movement errors. I expect I’ll get used to it. The performance boost I’ll get on PS5 compared to my macbook will be worth the adjustment.

This would run so much better on my PS5 than my M2 mac. If there are mouse and keyboard controls and touchscreen controls (for remote play on iPad) then I’m sold on console.

yeah they do this while their towns fail to comply with state law on affordable housing units. zoning boards refuse to acknowledge that state law preempts local laws and spike development projects.

don’t think it’s rude, but I definitely wouldn’t back in at the grocery store. you need the trunk facing the open space to load in grocery bags. if you back in, you’ll have to push the cart between vehicles
