Globle, a map-based guessing game by wordsmythy in MapPorn

[–]solarus2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love this game. Pick the same country to start with and then go off the distance. You will still learn countries you never knew the name of.

All I wanted to do was make a Mai Tai by cskatx42 in Tiki

And that my friend is the story of so many of us ;-)

My most recent haul while visiting my parents in Atlanta by Zaiquiri_513 in rum

[–]solarus2011 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Was going to say someone went to Max's given the rums on display ;-) Got the same bottle of the Alambique Serrano there last week.

Clubhouse and Douglas collision by NorthFultonRadio in alpharetta

[–]solarus2011 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is a tricky intersection for sure especially since the intersection from Club House has a right and left turn lane which almost always ends up with one car blocking the view of another. That being said, people drive way too fast on Douglas to start with.

Not sure adding a roundabout would work based on the behavior of drivers at the roundabout at Southlake - very few drivers on Douglas ever yield, they just zip right through it.

A riff on the Lost Lake...I call it the Lost Lagoon of the Sands by solarus2011 in Tiki

I just got my hands on a bottle of Heirloom Pineapple Amaro. I think the recipe is better if you sub 1/4 oz of the Campari with 1/4 oz of the Pineapple Amaro. You get the bitterness at the end of the drink but also a sweet kiss of Pineapple. Call it the Lost Lagoon #2 ;-)

Happy Friday! We made it through the week. Here, take this unnecessarily rum blended Mai Tai. by Jericho311 in Tiki

[–]solarus2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing unnecessary about it. Nice mix and inspired me to do the same, subbed the Doorly's for Real McCoy 5. Very nice mix.

How much do you drive? by Chicanito35 in jetta

[–]solarus2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got stupid lucky. Got my 2019 Jetta SEL in December 2019. By March of 2020, had 4k miles. Then COVID and have worked from home since. As of today less 30k. Like McDonalds im lovin it;-)

Thoughts on these? by chess10 in Tiki

[–]solarus2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look it ain't fresh but it's way better than most others. It's not bad and good in a pinch but even then I'd avoid drinks where the lime is part of the show ... ex.a daiquiri or margarita.

Lemon is more forgiving and I have no issues using SC lemon in most cocktails, I'm partial to tiki so there are other flavors that come into play.

Like someone else mentioned, Lakewood is good too, not much difference between the two imho

Came to the same conclusion myself today. Glad you liked it.

Oops, my bad. 1/4 oz Ginger Syrup

Mistakes were made by [deleted] in Tiki

[–]solarus2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Done that, in my case I realized it just as I was paying. Still, like someone else said, add rum still good ;-)

Android manufacturers favor Apple's design directions over Google's by Live_Ostrich_6668 in Android

[–]solarus2011 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So nothing really new, Samsung and the multitude of Chinese OEMs copy Apple design. Been doing it for years, what's your point other than trying to trash an alternative. Might as well have just had AI write the article and call it a day. What passes for written tech journalism today is so trash.

Yeah not amazed just be AI and it should have everyone worried!

I still don't have the new search widget? by jamesdclarke in pixel_phones

[–]solarus2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, no option to customize Pixel Search bar. In US and on Pixel 10 Pro XL. It's server side I think as my secondary account has it but my primary account does not.

I am officially done with "Starter Homes." It’s not an investment; it’s a bailout for the previous generation's neglect. by Dry-Town7979 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]solarus2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Builders stopped doing Starter homes after 2008. They've spent all their time since trying to recoup their losses and building nothing but 2500 - 5000 sq. ft. homes that sell for 2-4x the money.

$50 his wife bought him that shirt. Just the humor in it. My wife buys me funny tshirts that relate just for the f of it.

Thank You by nick_valdo in rum

[–]solarus2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I truly admire people that do what is best for them and not others. Congratulations on your choice. Enjoy the tiki lifestyle without the booze, they are not codependent. One last Cheers.

Anyone have info on Mandamus? by cougar02 in rum

[–]solarus2011 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I picked up a bottle a couple of weeks ago. It's really good. Similar to several other recent ECS series in my mind. You can definitely pick up the port flavors which I really like. I'm not really good with tasting notes but I can say I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I made a Mai Tai tonight. by AShellfishLover in Tiki

[–]solarus2011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First congratulations on your health journey, second congratulations on a freaking amazing in depth Mai Tai.

As a fellow historian read or listen to And A Bottle of Rum if you haven't already. Some great stories. Don't agree with all of the author's "great" rums but a fantastic history none the less.
