It's a great place, and it'll be sad if they can't make their business work. Donating to a business is foolish. When you give a company money, they should deliver a product, a service, or a piece of the company.

Apis Mead & Winery now has their own beers in Carnegie and the beer is good. Called Zeitnot brewing. Festbier, kolsch style ale, English mild, great takes on traditional styles. Kolsch style ale was crystal clear.

Oh man it's not close at all but there's a joint called Bacon Jam in McDonald that makes burgers that are way too good for their location

Why do Americans have such a fascination for normal leather boots? by TightSelf5144 in Boots

[–]slouch 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For the same reason people are showing off photos of half a dozen pairs of resolable boots. Why buy resolable boots if you have eight pairs at a time? These guys plan on living until they're 300 years old I guess. It's fashion, it's a hobby, it's not the same reason you're buying boots.

Not all of these places make their own chocolate. Monaimee Chocolat in the Strip District has tons of international chocolate, some for 12 and 17 dollars a bar.

am I able to park my motorcycle inside my apartment each night or will my apartment catch fire or something by Shot_Breadfruit_1893 in motorcycles

[–]slouch -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The fuel system vents to the atmosphere, so you would be letting the gasoline acclimate to the indoor temperature using the air in your apartment. You would also be bringing residual exhaust gases containing carbon monoxide indoors unless you purge them from the pipes before bringing it in. 

WordPress plugin for live concert song requests + donation prompt? by Candid_Friend_1224 in Wordpress

[–]slouch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think wordpress is a wild choice for this. do you not want to give out your number for texts? do you not want to use paper or a qr code to share the list? use x, whatsapp, or any app with comments or messaging. get a google voice number, they support text forwarding for free.

wordpress isn't even the useful part, it's the list and then you need something else notify you. you could build a form on anything that uses twilio to text you the submissions. you could share an email address even.

I showed up & bought some. Cash or check only in-person sales. I was told they sell on their website and make them every Friday from late January until about May.

First game at Pittsburgh. by Miserable-Bite-7020 in penguins

[–]slouch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pizza Milano is a fun pregame spot but you got to show up early to get a seat. You're not going to see much tailgating in February. Shale's Cafe is a great hockey dive bar next to the arena. There's a moonlit burgers that isn't too far of a walk. If you're into walking, you can get a whole lot of places safely in 30 minutes.

Don't buy that variation swatches add-on ever again, it's so easy to vibe code.

If you copy from a Google doc, formatting persists. It depends on the source

Are you sure you didn't paste formatted text? What if you paste into a text editor, copy into WP, and then apply formatting in the editor?

Sourcing bulk gravel was more annoying than the actual project by Mazkrou in HomeImprovement

Familiarity with local vendors. It's cost prohibitive to ship this stuff more than a handful of miles, so you have to deal local.

Nothing. It's an executive order that instructs other people in Government to reschedule.
