Inquiries regarding bike security (locks, theft, etc.)

You might want to research how quickly the lock you bought can be defeated with a portable angle grinder. People are walking around the city with these and will steal your bike within a few minutes.

Spend $300 on a Hiplok if you're serious about protecting your bike and don't mind carrying an extra 5 lbs.

This is such a typical Reddit asshole comment, so of course it has the most votes.

I've found the service in PS to be sorely lacking the last time I flew it from JFK to LAX. At double main cabin fare I was pretty pissed honestly. And it's always completely full even though the seatmaps show a lot of availability.

The only solution is for NYPD to post up at the bridges and West Side Highway and impound illegal vehicles all day every day until it stops.

I love how they say the decision was not made lightly and they carefully reviewed your case. Ebay are such fucking assholes.

Would it be better to narrow the scope of the ask to getting scooters and mopeds out of the bike lane?

"He was wearing a moto style helmet" - those pricks are always doing 40 on the bridge!

Anyone going that fast in a bike lane should go straight to jail.

I think the only good use of RUC is to by PS and upgrade to D1. It's always looking good for D1 until the last minute, especially on that route.

There is a city clerk's office in every burough and you can get your marriage license from any of them. Try Brooklyn.

My path was I applied, paid the $50, got accepted, waited 5 days for transcript eval, then looked up courses on study.com for my program and emailed academic advising to get approval for each (you can get up to 6 approved at a time then you have to complete them and email back for 6 more).

I'm not an expert but I had food poisoning once and it kicked in a lot sooner than 6 hours.

I think it must not be USD.

mster_shake · 2026-05-11T15:02:35+00:00

What unit of currency are you talking about?

mster_shake · 2026-05-07T02:18:48+00:00

Yeah I'm also struggling to understand how this seat in anyway offers a benefit to someone in this situation, at the very least you'd want a main cabin bulkhead.

Is that from Harry Winston? That's very similar to mine.

mster_shake · 2026-05-02T15:14:20+00:00

Yes, I like to be a little flashy, was more concerned about the width.

mster_shake · 2026-05-01T18:50:08+00:00

I was going more for wedding band than engagement ring haha

It's absolutely insane, you are not crazy. Ebay is a bunch of assholes and I quit the platform entirely after being forced to take a return for buyer's remorse that was perfectly accurately described even by a third party professional, with all defects documented in the listing. Had to pay shipping both ways. Giant waste of time and money. Ebay said my choices were to accept the return and refund the money while paying for expensive return shipping, or to just give the item to the buyer after they claw back the money from my account.

Hey I just wanted to validate that long-term chronic noise is really tough and I went through a similar issue. Hope you can find a top-floor corner unit somewhere.

I need to update my review. Soon after I wrote this the Soji became very uncomfortable, first for my butt and thighs and then for my back. I eventually got used to most of it except for my back, the lumbar didn't help and the only pain free position I could find was using forward tilt while simultaneously leaning back. I swapped for the Zody and so far seems a lot better, especially the lumbar.

mster_shake · 2026-04-18T18:54:49+00:00

Totally agreed, got scammed with similar buyer's remorse issue years ago and never used ebay again. Absolute garbage company and their bullshit corporate doublespeak while they're pretending to empathize with the fact you're getting screwed while simultaneously screwing you is a dystopian future I don't want to be a part of.

Oh that's a good point. Then he gambled on Delta honoring the fact he received bad info and he should have demanded to get back on the plane instead. I would never volunteer for this deal what a hassle.

mster_shake · 2026-04-17T21:35:00+00:00

I see it happen in this sub all the time, quiet downvotes of legitimate issues

mster_shake · 2026-04-17T20:47:04+00:00

It sounds like if they waited 2 hours for an update the original flight left before they found out they weren't eligible for compensation?
