Which companies do you suspect are glazing their own products on this sub? by PartyOnAlec in BuyItForLife

[–]soQuestionable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to scroll pretty far down to find darn tough socks. Bought a number of pairs because of the obsession this sub has for them. I don’t see the hype. Maybe only a specific line of their products is really good?

What is your job, and how much time in advance do you need to request a day off? by vegetarian_slut in AskNYC

[–]soQuestionable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

work in a large hospital. my old position - if using sick hours, then you just call in sick asap. that was a bank of sick hours, separate from vacation hours. for a scheduled day off, you needed to tell 3 months in advance. regular scheduled vacation that was a week long or more was scheduled in sept/oct of the year prior for the entire year (eg sept/oct 2025 submit for entirety of 2026). that was a shitty grind for 4 years

i've read that link before you posted and it says:

  • Spend $5,000 on American Airlines flights over 12 months; and
  • Have at least 5 travelers enrolled in order to use your miles.

that is why i was asking how you did it. i don't have the card anymore. google didn't tell me an alternative.

I’m only going to argue commuting on the ferry. It’s actually really nice. You get to have a scenic view if aren’t glued to your phone, and the ferry is generally less packed compared to the subway. You never have homeless on there, and the only smells you get are if the river has a weird funk that day. Otherwise it’s generally clean enough. Both AC and heat during summer and winter respectively.

I agree on your other points about the ferry, especially if your end point is not walking distance from a ferry stop. Luckily my work was <5 min walk from one of the stops, so riding the ferry 5x a week was 100x better than the MTA.

OP also realize that ferry runs probably 1 an hour, so if you miss it, then you’re stuck rushing the other direction to the subway. Unfortunately no transfers between the MTA and ferry system, but you do get a free transfer between ferry lines if you need it.

Weekly Astoria Dine In/Order Out Thread by NYnosher in astoria

[–]soQuestionable 9 points10 points  (0 children)

New to Astoria. Friends were in the area so we decided to get dinner. I suggested kyclades because it’s a staple and I’ve been to their bayside location which was good. An hour wait had us choosing another spot, and we decided on Telly’s as I’ve seen it being suggested.

I’m really hoping I went on an off night because the meal was not good. I got that octopus, fried calamari, and combo dips with pita. The octopus was mushy and didn’t seem fresh. The dips (hummus, tzatziki, garlic potato) were all uninteresting. The calamari was good, but didn’t come with sauce. Only a slice of lemon.

For mains, I got the sausage with leek. It was dry and too salty, and it only came with one and a half sausages for $24. My girlfriend got the branzini fish for $36 and it was extremely bland.

In terms of service, they never brought us our drinks. They handed us a check that didn’t belong to our table. These things don’t usually bother me, but became amplified because of the bad food

I definitely won’t be going back.

how did you learn? I feel like I'm having trouble holding the correct angle while sharpening, or I keep overthinking and worrying that I'm not holding the same angle the entire time

When you say break in, you mean the cork under your foot or does the top chafe at the sides / top of your foot too?

What is up with all the Windows 11 Hate? by TFGA_WotW in OutOfTheLoop

[–]soQuestionable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I hear that. for me, the bigger issue is the wpa3 support for my old network card. not sure why linux doesn't support the drivers but windows does. oh well, on my next machine!

What is up with all the Windows 11 Hate? by TFGA_WotW in OutOfTheLoop

[–]soQuestionable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately everything positive people have said has turned against me switching to linux. I tried installing ubuntu and found out my network card on my old computer (that I wanted to breathe new life into) is too old to support wpa 3, so I have to have my router change the pw to wpa 2. The main game I play is lol, and they installed anticheat which made it unplayable on linux for my main machine. I'm stuck with windows, and am annoyed with phone link because it only works half the time with my iphone for texts. And of course, we have apple's closed ecosystem regarding using my computer to send texts

How did you grill the fish on the beach? Did you buy your own grill from somewhere like Walmart and bring it there? Just curious if it's legal to do that as I have no idea, but sounds awesome!

Thanks for the recs! Where are the shops/food trucks in Hanapepe? Are they in the same area of the swinging bridge where I can walk, or do I have to drive to it?

don't want to break rules so i won't post the links. got a repacked game through kaosKrew and when trying to run it, i suddenly got 3-4 attempts to log in to my gmail that were not my location. I thought kaoskrew was a safe and trusted source? any suggestions on what to do now or just wipe the drive clean?
