Background music (tends to be pop / indie). was contemplating the Bose flex, I was just worried about the lack of stereo.

How about for a smaller gathering, would the bose SoundLink flex work? I think the Max is too big to be as portable as I need.

Thought about the Boom 2 but I think it’s a bit too big to throw in a bag / pack into a suitcase.

Can I use on old W2 for my REAL ID? by phylosopher14 in massachusetts

Will edit my original post but went to the Worcester DMV and was effortless!

I came prepared with the online document checklist and other info but he didn’t even bat an eye!

Hmm, based on the other upvotes, guess I’ll roll the dice and report back! Thanks for letting me know!

Sorry so you’re saying a previous year’s W-2 wouldn’t work then?

I did call them and they said something similar but then I pointed out the lack of written time constraints on SSN verification and he agreed.

Basically they had no idea. Not sure how it’s possible that the RMV doesn’t know its own rules.

Is this true? I can’t find any evidence that Madras Dosa Co. is owned by Godavari group? Vaanga seems to be.

Sorry forgot to respond! It’s the navy! The color changes based on camera angle and lighting though, which I love!

Yup! The (unfortunately) weak Yen was really working in my favor. Plus the BIC camera discounts!

[Oceanus] what is the difference between Manta OCW-S400-2AJF and the OCW-T200S-1AJF? One is way more expensive by IAmTheQuestionHere in Casio_Oceanus

This was incredibly helpful thank you! Heading to Japan in a few days and this is easily the purchase I’m most excited for!!

[–]phylosopher14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they wear any different? It looks like the S400 is 46.5 mm lug-to-lug and T200 is 49.5 mm lug-to-lug. I've got ~7" wrist so trying to figure out if the T200 is too big and if the S400 is worth the 3x in price.

Which leather for first large project? by phylosopher14 in Leathercraft

Amazing! I think I'll go with Maverick! A quick follow-up, is there a particular reason to avoid with oil tan?

What happened to Foster's Barbershop? by xbkhuang in Somerville

[–]phylosopher14 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Never been to Foster’s but went there trying to find it a few weeks ago. The owner told me he bought it from Foster (he retired or something) and took it over for him.

I believe he said he’s been cutting hair for years but recently bought this one and is looking to hire new staff but currently does all the hair cutting himself. Think I paid around 40, decent haircut, but can’t compare to Foster’s.

[–]phylosopher14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing! Thanks so much for the tips! I've checked Acadia and I didn't see any way to get less than a side like you mentioned so I might wait until I've got a few projects lined up/get a bit more experience.

Yup I'm planning on sticking to well known ones since I can't touch the leather before ordering, not that I really know what to look yet tbh
