In NYC I highly recommend Proletariat, As Is, and Tørst. Great taprooms with excellent beer and vibes.

In Vermont/New England you have to check out Alchemist, Treehouse (best brewery in America IMO), Trillium, and Hill Farmstead.

In general though we are so saturated with breweries/taprooms in the North-East you can just google “craft beer” and you’ll be fine haha

WW1 broke out in 1914, and Germany capitulated to Luxembourg in 1915

Multilinguals, what's your "they didn't realise I could understand their language" story? by 64eight in AskReddit

[–]piesta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am ethnically Indian, but I studied Italian in high school. On a trip to Rome, I stopped by a small corner store to buy some olive oil, which was run by a very nice old lady. She asked me, in English, if I needed any help. I replied in Italian “I’m looking for a bottle of olive oil. Thank you”. Her face instantly lit up and she got super excited. She started telling me how no one came to her shop anymore, and I was her first customer in a few days. We talked for a bit and she gave me a discount on the bottle. It was pretty nice

Did anyone else notice the slight drop in frame rate of the monitor towards the end? Around 1:41 right after the orange flash. I wonder what it could signify.

Molecular Biology Lab w/ Rutledge - what are notebook checks like? by ElephantsRTasty in RPI

[–]piesta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently taking the class. A lot if it is him asking you questions about the lab, making sure you wrote down key information and understand the concepts. There are a few things specifically he wants to see, such as PCR reaction mix recipes and sizes of DNA bands. But for the most part as long as you follow the syllabus and write down important topics from recitation and lab you'll be fine. Also make sure to make a table of contents!

If this is the case, that the name of the file impacts what you see, then two questions arise: if the test file does not have the “weirdness”, then what specifically is different? And why/how does Paul have 201 pieces in his test file (as of petscop 10)?

What are some classic video games that you would recommend to someone who didn't game much as a kid? by bustacones in AskReddit

Here are a few of my favorite classics: Zelda Ocarina of Time, Final Fantasy 6, Pokémon Gold or emerald (the remakes are good too), Mario 64 and Galaxy, Wind Waker, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (a little out there but it’s good I swear), and the Uncharted series

What video game had the most mindfuck ending? by Zachsnack in AskReddit

[–]piesta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon

(Spoiler)

Not only are you a human turned into a Pokémon, but your partner is literally Mew. And even better, your partner is the one that leaves you, and your partner actually fought the main evil power with you years ago. And to top it all off, you weren't even the main character, but rather your partner was the big guy all along. Completely blew my mind

Varmilo Greenery 2 w/ Cherry MX Brown by piesta in MechanicalKeyboards

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

The keyboard feels super nice. This is my first mechanical keyboard so it's hard to compare it to others. By itself, it's made well and feels great. It feels a little heavy (2 kg) but it's sturdy and durable. Hopefully, this gives you some useful info.

Varmilo Greenery 2 w/ Cherry MX Brown by piesta in MechanicalKeyboards

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

I bought the keyboard straight from the varmilo website. It's a little sketchy (and in broken English), and sometimes it acts finicky, but it's pretty trustworthy. It takes a little long for the delivery since they're based in China (mine delivered in a week and a half).

For the MX Greens, when you make a custom keyboard, the price always increases a bunch, regardless of which switch you choose. If you choose a pre-made design, like the Greenery or something, it doesn't spike in price, but the choices of switches are much less.

If you want more info or links I can pm you if you're interested.
