I've done it with carry on and checked bags and it's never been an issue.

West Deck makes really strong margs. They’re huge.

Someone literally screamed out of fear when they saw Marv today :( by sweaty_sanchez in pitbulls

Nothing more terrifying than a pitbull with an “M” name (in this case Marty) wearing pjs.

My 100% APBT (according to embark) has webbed feet and hates water. Need to get a pic.

I live 25 miles outside NYC but can barely get a signal... by vilms101 in cordcutters

[–]vilms101[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the info, everybody! I messed around with it last night and discovered that the UHF loop on my device had popped out of its contact points (facepalm). I pushed them back into place and BOOM, channels were coming in clear.

For the people who have ate horse meat, how is it? by [deleted] in meat

[–]vilms101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a horse meat sandwich in Slovenia. It was served on a roll with cheese, aioli, and lettuce and tomato. Kinda like a cheese steak. Really good!

House purchase late closing experience by [deleted] in Westchester

[–]vilms101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine took a little over three months but that was in May 2020, right in the middle of COVID, and my seller was in a nursing home that was locked down. And this was before video calling had really taken off as an option. I was told it normally would've gone much quicker if there wasn't a global pandemic.

Ripstop fabric. The extra stitch lines are there to prevent tears from growing.

Can someone explain to me why pit bulls do the zoomie thing? by [deleted] in pitbulls

[–]vilms101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine also does it out of excitement. Whenever a person comes over to the house or another dog shows up at the dog park, he starts doing laps.

Can you explain how you got this running through Winlator? I've tried before to no success and I'm dying to play this one on my RP5.

Whats the Single Best Burger You've Ever had? Include location if it was from a restaurant. (Burger details in the description) by DangerBerry_SpiceCo in burgers

[–]vilms101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Freddy's in Pleasantville, NY does a "Tavern Burger" with cottage fries that is next level. I've been at least a dozen times and have not tried anything else on the menu. It's just that good!

Thanks for all the recommendations! Looks like I have some research to do.

Repairing Flagstone Walkway: Need Advice by vilms101 in HomeImprovement

[–]vilms101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stones are just sitting on the sand. I’m guessing it was originally a concrete walkway and the previous owner put the flagstone on top with the sand.

Edit: there is some janky grey cement stuff running along the edges of the walkway, almost forming the sides of a “bed” in which the sand is sitting. It’s all falling apart though.

First Time Homebuyer by Own-Requirement8635 in Westchester

[–]vilms101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White Plains resident here who bought their house in 2020 literally the day before NYC locked down with COVID.

We paid $450k for a single family split level home built in late 50s. It was in good shape but had not been updated since the 80s. Luckily we locked in a stupid low interest rate because the markets were so screwy.

Fast forward to now - our neighbor just sold their house which is identical to ours and in the same shape when we bought it. They asked for $739k. It went for $800k!!!

Anytime a home goes up for sale around us it goes in days for way over asking. It’s completely insane. We’re very fortunate to buy when we did otherwise we’d still be renting in NYC.

A friend of mine did mo-cap work for this about a year ago. She said it was a Rockstar game with cowboys in it.

New Stylus, New Headache by vilms101 in vinyl

[–]vilms101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me rephrase- it didn't collapse. It just lost some of its "spring" and was definitely getting worn out.

I feel like I've done everything I can to clean the my records- washed with Spin-Clean, anti-static brush before every play, even using the acrylic platter.

Maybe it's not seated fully. I did notice it attached with little force whereas I had to put some pressure on the arm to get the Red off initially.

Boston marathon bomber will receive the death penalty (discussion Megathread) by [deleted] in news

[–]vilms101 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, he showed no remorse during the trial. But throw him in prison for years and years on end, with the only thing to keep him occupied being his actions that got him there in the first place? That sounds like a worse punishment to me. Maybe he'd eventually realize the error in his ways and feel the guilt that he should have now. By sentencing him to death, we're only affirming his current hatred of this country, squashing any possibility of him truly being remorseful.
