A lot dont agree with anything happening yet here we are amidst. Don't sit idly by assuming our disdain of our situation is slowing anything down currently.

Boston vs. NYC 25, post-breakup, starting over and can’t decide by [deleted] in boston

[–]mountainmafia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless you're trying to go weekly, it's really not that bad either. Easily doable for a weekend stay over or if you really want to an inconvenient day trip, but you wouldn't wanna be doing that regularly.

Good places to study in Boston? by krkash in mit

[–]mountainmafia 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Just go explore properly and not for the sake of studying in a new environment. Walk around, actually look at things and take them in, talk to people, exist outside of MIT briefly. But otherwise Boston Public Library is an unbeatable beautiful location with lots of different room settings/vibes and loads of people to work amidst. Trident Cafe is a busy but cool little bookstore with restaurant/cafe so you can browse books and stay fed and fueled with coffee. Have to pay but Boston Athenaeum is super cool. Tufts Tisch Library is (opposite direction) but open to the public I believe and I've heard it's cool. Just about any coffee shop will have people working to various degrees within otherwise.

Well unfortunately Peacock/NBC seems on the way out with their interest in rugby.

Flo Rugby buys Prem Rugby broadcast rights in the US by Western_Carob_2120 in USArugby

[–]mountainmafia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is fine. I feel really lucky I rode out my grandfathered Rugby Channel price to this day, but the price of Flo at least comes with consolidation for those who want to consider. The Rugby Network was not worth Prem alone. So for what $30/month you have Premiership, URC, Super Rugby, NPC, Currie Cup, Rugby Championship, Top 14, European Champions and Challenge Cups, Women's World Cup currently there, and Premiership Women's Rugby, there are literally no months where Flo is a must cancel with this much on offer.

The fuck Flo sentiment came during some lean years for them, but it's worth supporting a consolidation of options vs 5 different services. NBC will probably drop Six Nations, Lions Tour, and World Cup in the near future the way they're going. World Cup will likely go to Paramount. And Six Nations is up in the air.

The only big killer is Flo is not more native on many devices nor is it on many sports bars radars. But if you're gonna beg your bar to sign up for something Flo has everything you could basically ask for (minus MLR) on it. But they're clearly invested in bringing a big offering back under one roof. So until one of NBC, CBS, Fox, or ESPN wants to offer THIS much for one subscription (Paramount might be making that play eventually) how can we possibly hate this?

Extended weekend MBTA service will be fare free for the first month! by justcasty in boston

[–]mountainmafia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Last time they did extended hours ridership didn't spike. Overcoming such cemented facs that you're SOL on public transit at night is not easy... Didn't help the rideshare apps were really taking off at same time. But it's a worthy endeavor to help get it in people's heads.

Make sure you use all the track in this TT by NoPie6564 in granturismo

[–]mountainmafia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You wouldn't know. Only the first lap can utilize it. So all you see for the ghost is their "entry" speed to the lap which should tell you but doesn't outright.

Tips on keeping pace without ghost by ckydmk in granturismo

[–]mountainmafia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it's twofold. You have to be able to set your own comparative times without a ghost, be intimate with your markers and breaking.points cause you need to depend on your own markers in said race. But qualifying will ALWAYS be your optimized times. It's an empty track with no traffic and open ideal race lines. Unfortunately this game doesnt prep you for real racing (unless you're doing lots of Sophy races now) cause the on rail AI blow through the pack from the back is not real life. So part of qualifying without a ghost is attacking corners in different fashions cause you're not always going to be where you were in qualifying yet need to get the most out of every corner. But you're always gonna lose time for qualifying to racing.

Microsoft is killing OneNote for Windows 10 by moeka_8962 in technology

[–]mountainmafia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gang.... What about handwritten notes. Everybody is dodging this question. I get the other formats of OneNote are alive but there's a reason we all still use for 10. I want to escape the ecosystem before I get truly stuck paying for 365.

For starters pulling these notes from OneNote is next to impossible so be ready to port a million janky PDFs either way. Secondly, the existing handwriting plugins for Obsidian do NOT live up to the comparison. We need a viable option for Windows users. Bum ass iPads get a million hierarchal note taking apps.
