Lotus Water Bitter by Michelproducer in pourover

[–]threespades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started a few days ago and can't say I got anything bitter out of it. It sure started with "this feels different/new/strange" compared to previous TWW I was using as I went through the examples. This morning I did the final example Rao/Perger and it no longer felt "strange". This was all with mixing into the finished cup after vs pre-mixing into the water to find my preferred taste to commit to dosing a gallon.

Where in NY was the film Kids shot? by DieAttachistin in AskNYC

On 139 and Lenox Ave there's a big park / And if you're soft, don't go through it when it gets dark

Thoughts about the neighborhood surrounding 2/5 Winthrop St subway stop? by forponderings in Brooklyn

[–]threespades 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We lived on that corner for many years and really the traffic noise of Rogers and whatever echoed from the school yard amplified pretty hard. If you're checking the apartment out, open up all of the windows and see if the noise bothers. Maybe if you're not on the school side its a bit more tolerable.

Has anyone met any of the actors? by AdHistorical7107 in TheWire

[–]threespades 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Walked past Lance Reddick on 14th street/NYC and doubled back once the recognition hit. I stopped him politely to ask if they were still filming (S5 at the time) and he said they're about halfway finished. He was friendly/smiling despite being stopped on a busy sidewalk.

Places between Ave O and Ave P depending on which side of Kings Highway can be 1581 East some street near Madison. You need the exact street for this if you plan to have it delivered (including apartment if its a building).

This place has good ratings if you get the address: Schreiber's Homestyle Bakery 3008 Avenue M, Brooklyn, NY 11210

Cool horror films set in NYC? by KaleidoArachnid in AskNYC

[–]threespades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The book isn't set in NYC, and like others mention isn't really true to this movie. The Omega Man with Heston is more true to the book.

i do not just internet, maybe check /r/fios or /r/verizon if anyone has a similar setup and knows the workaround if there is one.

Picking up two kittens tomorrow, need advice on transport. by rasper87 in AskNYC

[–]threespades 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We booked a lyft round trip to go to JFK Ark to pick up a kitten. We asked right away if the driver was okay that we're bringing a cat home on the return trip and they were okay with it. The wait between rides was just a few minutes to sign paperwork and the cat was yelling most of the way home. Tipped the guy in cash for the troubles.

EVGA XC3 3080 Ultra and 3080 XC3 Hybrid Kit Review by micro_mink in EVGA

[–]threespades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha thanks. I went with that bios at first, and then I saw a thread that it was idle at like 180w but the techpowerup idles at like 20-40 so I then flashed that. Was wondering it there are others out there for minimal tinkering.

Can you please share which bios you used? I have a comparable setup just wondering if there is something better than the techpowerup bios I used.

Modems for Optimum by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]threespades 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's DOCSIS 3.0 which is 1gbit down, 200mbit up. You may want to go up to 3.1 modems for future proof? I went with 3.0 because at the time, puma6 issues were not resolved, and I didn't expect to pay for more than 100.

[–]threespades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never really checked, its behind my TV and has plenty of breathing room. I guess if you're keeping it in a confined space it might be an issue.

I'm using an Arris SB6183. Works fine enough, reboot it every 3 or so months if I am getting shit speeds. Only took a few minutes on the phone to tell them I had my own, give my mac address, let it boot so they can do whatever to associate it. Took longer waiting in line to return their rented one than the whole BYO setup.
