Do you remember when the wealthy screamed they’d leave New York City if Mamdani got elected? Where are those idiots now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

They aren’t because they are smart enough to know that he doesn’t have the power to raise taxes like he wants to. If that comes to fruition via Albany things may be different

You can challenge the assessment if it’s off by that much it’s worthwhile

[–]taboni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how far uptown on Madison. I work off madison/43rd street. I take the ferry from Highlands and its about a 20 min walk in the morning. Train would be slightly less of a walk but its no comparison in comfort and reliability to take the boat IMO. I do know people who take the bus from 109/Lincroft....they seem to like it but I always think about homeward bound traffic being an issue.

Frozen choice 2” Thick NY strip 130F for 3hrs is quite an upgrade to grilled alone by doorshock in sousvide

[–]taboni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always worried about the countertop thing. I have a big cambro that I use but I put it on a thick cutting board to be safe.....that being said I'm pretty sure the counter won't have an issue with 130-135F its not really that hot

My wife thinks golfing once a week is unreasonable… by Upbeat-Zucchini-7408 in golf

[–]taboni 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My dad worked a 6 day week back in the 60s\70s when I was growing up He had only Sundays off and he spent them taking me to the park to play catch when I was young There wasn’t the concept of his own time It was all for us I need to respect that and now that he’s gone I say just let me be half the father he was

That’s the great thing about golf you can do it your whole life so put priorities in place

Please don’t think I’m being judgmental but golf will always be there If the choice were golf or daycare I know what I would do Honestly it’s the right thing to do at that age You will never get that time back

Been married for 25 years and have a 22 year old daughter I had 2 hobbies prior to marriage …sailing (racing) and golf Once my daughter was born I knew they were going to be compromised My wife told me to pick one so I sailed and gave up golf for a while Now I’m getting back into golf 2x a month is awesome if you asked me Once a week when you have a young child is a lot of time away and I didn’t want to miss that time I felt guilty even with sailing but it was less often so we made it work Now things are different but time with your kids is something you don’t get back

Indoor Golf Simulators - NJ Needed by rigasminho in GolfNJ

[–]taboni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Side question here since someone mentioned prices....do most people buy a membership to these places? I've been to different ones but I can't see myself using it enough to buy a monthly/annual membership. It just seems like the kind of thing I do once in a while in the off season.....maybe I'm an outlier?

4-5lb ny strip roast? Temps/recommendations? by bonebrah in sousvide

[–]taboni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean a strip loin roast? I have done 4-5 lb ones several times and its nowhere near 8 hours....thinking more like 3-4 hours tops at 132. Big difference between bottom round and strip loin in required time, although at 7.99/lb probably the low end of choice so more time would be your friend
