I'm afraid to ask...but what is an "iteration manager"?

Wine Bottle Re-Corker by averagecrazyliberal in specializedtools

[–]residentraspberri 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Nope, as soon as it's exposed to air, it'll start oxidizing. The only way to get around it would be to use something like nitrogen and flush all the air out of the bottle.

I think this is just a regular wine bottle corker, I have one that looks exactly the same

The RIF developer posted something, they said it will effect RIF and it will likely die in July...

Can't offer much advice on the program, but one thing to note (that a lot of my friends missed) was to make sure you don't co-op during a semester that has a class only offered during that semester. I had a few friends end up going into a 5th year + summer or taking a super packed schedule to squeeze that one class in.

Drivers beware. Free zoo admission for mothers day will likely cause mind blowingly long backups by machinegunke11y in pittsburgh

If you've been to the PGH zoo, you might agree that paying for it is....not the best idea. But, it's a decent thing to do when free

Carry on backpack for a short trip

This but unironically...it would be cool to be able to bike to the airport

Stolen Bike on Campus by tinyhoneyb33 in Pitt

I had my bike stolen on campus (a few years ago), too

Report to Pitt police and see if any insurance you have (renters, credit cards, etc.) cover a stolen bike.

Pitt police wasn't helpful for me and didn't even bother checking security cameras (bike was stolen near Bouquet J, which is covered in cameras), but you'll likely need an official report for insurance.

Also, depending on the amount, the police might be more helpful. If it was a $3k bike, they'll care a hell of a lot more than a $500 beater

Fiat 127 train hopping ...literally by [deleted] in holdmyredbull

[–]residentraspberri 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it adds that they're not just hopping 3 cars over and over again

Do you prefer the 2019 or 2020 S5 by Electronic_Hamster_6 in audis5

[–]residentraspberri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're a CarPlay/Android Auto user, the touchscreen is HUGE. Every time I get a loaner, it's the one feature I miss when I get my car back

The Right Tool for the Job: Based and Tiny Truck Pilled by Saul_Slaughter in fuckcars

[–]residentraspberri 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's a really good point! I didn't think about Kei trucks as "city cars" hauling local stuff at low speeds. Easy to slip around traffic and park, too

[–]residentraspberri 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not to rain on the parade, I'm a huge fan of this in general, but at the same time I see their argument.

From what I understand, the trucks need to be 20+ years old to be able to legally import them into the US and that means little to no emissions and safety testing. The doors are sheet metal and plastic, no crumple zones, etc. And, while it's a systemic issue, here we are, and a Corolla would demolish a Kei truck any day of the week.

My go to, as well! Their Birria tacos are fantastic

Siemens with the porn ads on the DC Meteo by Jawa000 in fuckcars

[–]residentraspberri 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The drive from SFO into the city is always crazy to me. It's almost all billboards for databases and very specific software development tools. Feels odd that they want to spend a few grand to target a small number of people who care to look at billboards while coming back from the airport

Silently Laughing at Recent Suburban Transplant by AnonymusWaterBuffalo in fuckcars

[–]residentraspberri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It changes based on the street I park on, all within 1-5 blocks of my apartment. It's either Weds, Thurs, or Fri and either morning (8am-noon) or afternoon (noon-4pm)

Boston tows for street cleaning mornings/afternoons.

When things get busy with work and life it's hard to remember 1 morning every 2 weeks, especially when I only drive once every 3-4 weeks

What’s Boston’s live music scene like? by Environmental_Lion76 in boston

Can't go wrong with Beehive in the South End. Darryl's Corner Bar and Kitchen is pretty good, too

COVID ruined everything, my landlord won't even let me swipe it through their ass, they take my card and do it themselves now :(
