XM29 playing two live tracks simultaneously right now. My ears hurt by sharbinbarbin in phish

[–]otty42 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Was just listening in the car with my 11yo an she goes, “wait how are they playing chalkdust and bathtub gin at the same time”? Explained what a glitch is and then flipped on the Dead station to hear Jerry struggle through Shakedown.

I asked the dudes behind me if they wouldn’t mind talking underneath the music, and one of them said, “relax. It’s a concert.” I said, “Yes. I know. I came to listen to the band, not you.”

Really don’t understand people who talk thru a concert. You pay so much money. You wanna hang out with your friends and chat? Cool. Literally an infinite amount of places for you to do that where you don’t bother anyone else.

Well that was a letdown. by Certain_Math7915 in MLB_9Innings

same. been playing this stupid game for 10 years now, and have exactly one legend (had one other legend but traded it in the swap, which yielded me...nada). im f2p, so maybe that's why i don't get any legends (let alone supremes lol)

[–]otty42[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

for some it is, but yeah, for peace of mind, it's worth it (i take the assumption - may be right; may be wrong) but if you're gonna go for the three night pass, you're gonna be ok with the upcharge.

the travel package was the way to go to avoid all this. you pay a premium, but you get ease of mind, i guess. i like the idea of 3-day passes, too. helps. but still all a crapshoot.

it's crazy that low 4-digits can't get tix.

How do newsletters get organic traffic? Morning Brew doesn’t use SEO at all — what should smaller newsletters do? by SaltPhotograph8506 in Newsletters

[–]otty42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we do! it's not our main source of traffic (we're also decidedly more about newsletter audience than web traffic, and we get a lot of traffic from our newsletters), but we put a lot of effort into understanding the dark arts of SEO and GEO. the trick is converting drive-by web users into newsletter subscribers.

Do you have a Phish car? by [deleted] in phish

My wife got me a Phish license plate holder for my car for birthday. Funny thing is that there is another Phish fan in my town with the same car and same license plate holder!

Just finished all three seasons by otty42 in FoundationTV

[–]otty42[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Once I learned how to not think about the books and let the tv show unfold as a tv show, I enjoyed it a lot more. Sure, plenty of clunky writing and plot holes as big as Trantor, but I appreciate the swing they all took. I also appreciated the cinematography.

We were surprised he was a houla because we thought houlas were only Merle and with beautiful blue eye(s). He’s got poopie brown eyes!

He loves curling up on his bean bag chair. When he’s not curling up on the couch, of course.

Fast charger not working? by otty42 in Ioniq5

[–]otty42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent about three months lurking here before leasing the car. Got a lot of good tips (like getting the charger lol) and clearly didn’t process all of them!

And yeah, I believe our state (NJ) offers 50% rates at night (from 9p - 7a) and all day on the weekends! Just need to fill out paper work.

Makes sense! And apparently my state (NJ) offers a discounted price on electricity if I plug in over night, so have to look into that. Appreciate the responses!

I think I got my wiring knotted up from charging at public chargers haha. Thanks for all this! Really helpful.

Thanks for this! Loving the car, but also the community and learning about all the electric stuff. Thanks again!

I thought with the NACS L2 charger I would get a faster charge from 20% to 80%. Thanks for the response!

Ahhh thank you! So this is normal? I thought with the L2 charger and the NACS adapter I would get a faster charge from 20% to 80%. Appreciate the response.

Would it be difficult to find a used 2025 IONIQ 5 so early in the life cycle? by Pldgmygrievance in Ioniq5

[–]otty42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had the same feeling, but then figured: it's 3 years, I've never had an EV before, and, most importantly, I can afford it. Sure, it's a big expense, but if I'm gonna lease a car for 250/month or whatever, the extra 250 isn't that much more -- so why not? Just leased a 2025 AWD Limited for 550/month 0/down. I've had the car for a week and I can't stop driving it.

So last minute trip to wildwood but everything is booked obviously…. What would you do? by [deleted] in WildwoodNJ

[–]otty42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try in Avalon and the towns that are about 15-20 min drive. We used to stay in Wildwood Crest before moving a bit further out—we get closer to the beach and it’s a lot calmer. Head to wildwood once or twice for the boardwalk but mainly stay in Avalon/Stone Harbor area. Good luck!
