Young woman who had light gets killed by hit-and-run driver who failed to yield and fled the scene. by zenoin nyc

[–]vvpan 0 points1 point ago

Not sure about Manhattan, but in the burroughs these trucks don't obey any traffic laws. They just run red lights at high speed.

My friend and I will be working in NYC this summer. What is everyone's favorite/must see/must do thing/place/activity in the city? by MrJBearin nyc

[–]vvpan 2 points3 points ago

But it's true - this thread comes up quiet often. Search fore "favorite" in the subreddit.

Linus Torvalds doesn't do github pull requests. by WarlizardGamingForumin programming

[–]vvpan 17 points18 points ago

There should be a word for Torvalds-style responses. Right or wrong they are always hilarious.

Anyone know where I can find this? [x-post from r/pics] by beep41in nyc

[–]vvpan 3 points4 points ago

I work in dumbo and I don't think that sculpture is there anymore, cause I've walked all over and have not seen it. They do temporary installations in Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Telling it how it is by atomic47in funny

It's probably the lack of reverb. It's real dry.

(Xpost-Funny) All About Beards by drgigglefacein wicked_edge

[–]vvpan 3 points4 points ago

I actually wanted to have a beard since I was a little kid. To me men with beards always appeared wiser and kinder than the beardless counterparts.

Reddit: DAE know of a delicious, affordable baker/bakery? by HeyMonsPubisin nyc

[–]vvpan 0 points1 point ago

I hated almost every cake I have tried in US. Except for two bakeries:

  • Almandine bakery in dumbo makes some very-very good cakes. I am not sure if they do wedding cakes.

  • Kiev bakery in sheephead bay makes some excellent cakes. They definitely do custom ones. Their variety is overwhelming though.

Cyclists Beware: Another Summer Without Plumb Beach Bike Path, Despite $9M In Nearby Renovations by Lostinservicein NYCbike

[–]vvpan 0 points1 point ago

It's such a short stretch that I don't see it as a huge problem. You just walk your bike for a minute. I am all for fixing all bike paths, but I am not surprised that this is not a priority.

Moving with a car by SeventhRainin nyc

[–]vvpan 0 points1 point ago

I own a car in the city, and don't use a garage. I use the car quite often to go to far-away boroughs and to outside of the city, and will not give it up. But I also don't live in Manhattan. If you are in a neighborhood where parking isn't too hard, then I don't see it as anything especially bad. FDR and west side highway are usually not bad as well.

Deodorant. What do you use? by sonic-fuckin malefashionadvice

An alum block. No odor, completely inert, cheap.

The Manhattan store Tools for Working Wood seems to carry it.

Tarot deck recommendations by cumfreakin tarot

[–]vvpan 0 points1 point ago

My first deck was/is a Marseille deck. I guess I am a bit of a purist, but the earlier the deck the more I am interested, since it closer to the source. If you are interested in Marseille decks check out Camoin tarot - it's a beautiful modern face-lift of the said family of cards.

Does anyone know where I can buy bamboo in or near Manhattan? Trying to build a custom bike frame by pricetag92in nyc

[–]vvpan 0 points1 point ago

Check out Bamboo Craft forums. I'm sure suppliers in NYC area have been discussed. Would also be interested in knowing. You can make so much out of bamboo...

My new coffee table, made entirely of maple. by hayman84in woodworking

[–]vvpan 2 points3 points ago

Looks expensive, but good.

I recently saw shoes similar to the woven AE New Orleans, but now can't find the company. Help? by vvpanin malefashionadvice

[–]vvpan[S] 0 points1 point ago*

Johnston & Murphy are the ones I was looking for! Thanks dude. Yeah the other two look a bit on the funky side. Out of stock eh? I'll look around as well. I am a bit wary of the large stitching on the New Orleans. But they do look pretty good.

Oh also. One of the reviews for them mentioned that they are not recraftable :/

[–]vvpan[S] 0 points1 point ago

Nope. Alas. If I find I'll let you know. Perhaps the other shoes I saw are no longer made, which is why searching through sites of the more famous manufacturers yielded nothing.
