Does Pittsburgh want a new craft brewery? by TERRYbytein pittsburgh

[–]dand 1 point2 points ago

I'd think being in the city would be beneficial. Who'd want to drive out to the suburbs just to get some growlers?

If Pedal Pale Ale were available year-round, and in cans, in DC, I would be an alcoholic.

I feel like the hops wars are (finally) waning, and these days the trend is towards funky/sour beers.

I-279 is the 9th most congested traffic corridor in the US by blucas32in pittsburgh

[–]dand 3 points4 points ago

Especially when there's a bottleneck like a tunnel at the end of it. Really, the only way they can alleviate traffic into and out of downtown Pittsburgh is to get more people on mass transit.

A salary floor would have the same effect as a cap, at least until the cap is so low that top-earning players start leaving MLB for other leagues.

Why do you think it is wrong for the federal government, and yet ok for state governments, to provide special benefits on the basis of marriage?

(NGD) Finally got my hands on this little guy. by bengetsalongin Guitar

Push the little button on the top-right. It'll cycle through the 4 modes, guitar /needle, guitar/strobe, bass/needle, bass/strobe.

As with any anecdotal evidence, there's bound to be diametrically contrasting experiences. My Polytune has been rock solid after a bunch of gigging in the past year or so (bought it when it first came out). Meanwhile, my bandmate's TU-2's started crapping out recently with crackling noises when plugged in.

Of course, throughout this whole ordeal, our Korg "Dead Rat" GA-30 has been chugging along flawlessly for upwards of 4 years on the original battery. It doesn't even make any sense.

I tried a Strat and it wasn't what I expected. by GrumpGoatin Guitar

What exactly is crap about your crapstrat?

GM: Super Bowl Spots Not Worth The Cost by dandin nfl

[–]dand[S] 7 points8 points ago

I think it has to do with brand exposure, relative to competitors. Even if a particular GM ad doesn't lead many people to buy GM cars, it's possible that if those ads are absent while Ford runs a bunch of commercials, it might lead a buyer to prefer Ford over GM when they are ready to buy a car.

That said, I think it's gotten to the point where ads specifically during the Super Bowl have become overpriced (compared to running the ads elsewhere).

We wouldn't need front roll bars if tyres in F1 were this well behaved. by iamwalshin formula1

Hubs are tethered -- don't think you can tether tires/rims.

several million dollars

By "several", I suppose you mean 200.

Finally, the truth comes out about Pittsburgh urban planning! by msadvnin pittsburgh

Or Capital Bikeshare, which is awesome and often faster than metro.

Lot 17 in Bloomfield might be a decent choice, and bus-accessible from Oakland.

Norway killer says no one would call him insane if he were 'bearded jihadist' by autof5in worldnews

[–]dand 0 points1 point ago

Being insane does not preclude being correct on occasion. I'd say he's insane (delusional, psychotic, whatnot), but he's probably also correct that had he been a "bearded jihadist", the media would focus on terrorism and religious extremism rather than insanity.

Drafting to win a Championship by vonbonbonin nfl

[–]dand 1 point2 points ago

It would be interesting to compare these numbers with the distribution of early draft picks of the teams that didn't make the playoffs. That'll show you how the winning teams' draft strategies contrast with the bad teams.

Africa is big... (x-post from r/pics) [648x705] by speedyjohnin MapPorn

[–]dand 0 points1 point ago

Yeah that's true. I guess it's mostly just N America that gets massively inflated.

Africa is big... (x-post from r/pics) [648x705] by speedyjohnin MapPorn

[–]dand 4 points5 points ago

If anything, this made me realize that the bulky part of Africa is near the equator, while the bulky parts of N and S America are far away from the equator. Hence why the usual stretchy projections inflate the size of the Americas and Europe more than Africa.

/pittsburgh My band could use your assistance. We are trying to book Brillobox or Club Cafe. More in comments. by barbequebotin pittsburgh

[–]dand 0 points1 point ago

Yes, absolutely get in touch with local bands to share a bill. And some other venues you might want to look into are Garfield Art Works and Thunderbird Cafe.

Are there any online maps of free street parking areas in Pittsburgh? by SuperLameWeakin pittsburgh

[–]dand 2 points3 points ago*

Maybe we can make one? I think I've set up this shared Google Map to be publicly editable: Pittsburgh Free Street Parking
