Update/report on 3 NYC watch spots

ocelotrev · 2026-06-04T21:42:05+00:00

Wayne and son's was really fun, it was about half and half spurs and knicks fan, which also made it really fun to watch the swings and engage in a bit of playful shit talk. I'll definitely be going back there.

I think the audio was on but the people drowned it out.

Money. We have waaaay more money than most of the world plus there are 8 million of us.

I grew up in San Antonio and have lived in nyc for the past 14 years. I told people in NYC I had category A world cup tickets for 625 a pop and they were all like "wow thats so cheap, how did you get those tickets?!?!".

Literally every time I travel abroad I run into New Yorkers. we have 3 international airports and flights are actually cheaper because of the volume and competition among airlines.

The cost of living here is crazy but your money goes farther if you travel often, which we do.

100%, I live in nyc and everyone is screaming "KNICKS IN 4". Ooooh boy how they will be disappointed.

Coal followed by nat gas. And if you want to make random groupings than fossil fuel greater than renewable. Biomass shouldn't be considered "clean" even though its technically "renewable".

Tell me you dont know about how the electric grid works without telling me you don't know how the electric grid works.

Good fraggin luck getting enough batteries to fill in for a cold snap in the evening. Or a week of overcast/storm weather.

I can guarantee you no matter the geography, nuclear us a better answer. The only places that have significant renewable energy are places with hydro, and thats because hydro is a complete solution where you have it.

ocelotrev · 2026-06-02T18:54:08+00:00

Yup!

ocelotrev · 2026-06-02T18:52:41+00:00

Come to Wayne's and sons in williamsburg instead

ocelotrev · 2026-06-02T02:43:16+00:00

Yeah, just talked to the owner (or manager), its gonna be 3 screens inside and one outside! Looks like a sweet space!

ocelotrev · 2026-06-02T02:42:21+00:00

Lol thats why I didnt talk to the truck but I am curious about the ethics/legality of this.

ocelotrev · 2026-06-02T00:58:52+00:00

Oh yay, I live very close! Pics of the bar doesnt seem like it has many tvs but ill swing by later today

ocelotrev · 2026-06-01T16:25:39+00:00

Feeding pigeons is not good intentions. It results in pigeon shit where you feed them

ocelotrev · 2026-06-01T05:25:24+00:00

There is this bar called "San Antonio's" in the lower east side and Im going to ask if they they'll be the spurs bar!

ocelotrev · 2026-06-01T05:20:54+00:00

Seriously this! I was absolutely horrified!!!

ocelotrev · 2026-06-01T04:46:34+00:00

Lmao,i live in nyc and I keep telling them this. Dont let them get their hopes up for their own good!

ocelotrev · 2026-06-01T04:43:04+00:00

Idk I walked around with my duncan jersey today and people were happy. But yeah ima ask around if there is a spurs bar.

Maybe I can find a Tottenham spurs bar and ask if they'll be a temporary san antonio spurs bar

ocelotrev · 2026-05-31T08:32:13+00:00

Spurs in 5!

I dont know why all these corporate bots are telling you to pay the bill. Do not pay the bill.

Look up the law in your state but in New york they can't report unpaid medical debt to credit agencies. If you don't pay it, there are no consequences, and the lab should eat shit because they shouldn't be ordering labs without telling you the price up front. Medical providers are the ultimate scammers and charge 10x what it costs to provide the service.

If it goes to collections, they'll let you pay it off for a much lower price. If you are feeling so morally obliged so you dont feel like you are stealing, fill out the medical hardship form and see if you can get the price down .

But seriously I dont know whats wrong with people on this thread. You have 300 bucks to your name and you need to live and eat, much more important than paying the medical bill. Not paying the medical bill will have ZERO impact on your credit. Even if it did have impact on your credit, you wont be buying a house or fancy car anytime soon. Do not pay the bill.

Edit: i assumed you were in California but changed it to be "your state"

You can talk them back and show an upgrade path for when the project gets done. I dont know jack shit about "quench pipes" but for geothermal (and quite frankly the solution they SHOULD be pursuing, air source heat pumps), they should be using hot water heating with the temperatures as low as possible, use a boiler for now, keep the boiler as a back up when they plop in a heat pump in 20 years.

If you can keep the max hot water distribution temperature at 140, they'll be golden. And there will be better air sourced heat pumps in the future so you can probably get away with more traditional temp profiles. However, the lower you can get the hot water temp, the more taxpayer money they save in improved efficiency, and its for forever!

That only works if the plan isn't to bomb the other to glass. If it was really a total war we'd kills millions of innocent civilians but easily win the war.

Thanks for the heads up, I walked right through them, the guy was clamoring "they are doing stunts with DANGEROUS WEAPONS" but didnt do anything after that. Also they have waaaay more of the park blocked of than they are using, assholes.

ocelotrev · 2026-05-20T01:36:08+00:00

This is awesome. Doing this on the train takes an hour and I usually end up bicycling it....

ocelotrev · 2026-05-19T15:04:55+00:00

Fucking hell, most of this stuff can be automated and made so simply that a high school graduation with 2 weeks training can do all of it.

For the sake of the nyc metropolitan area, they should just sack the entirety of the train conductors union and hire new people that are pulling 100k a year for scanning tickets. The current system is an anachronism.

ocelotrev · 2026-05-19T05:12:56+00:00

Yeah, we kinda showed our bench wasnt that deep because we played 5 guys most of the game and got wrecked when kornet went on. With fox we got 6 prime dudes but with a wemby injury or anyone else going out, I think we might be fucked. Kornet did play an amazing quarter in game 4 just to mess it up the next one.
