I agree. CD and Vinyl is vastly superior because of it being lossless. When I buy music, I get it on CD and then make a lossless digital version for listening on the go.

Counterpoint: You shouldn’t.

Until the cost is reflective of the product, you should consider purchasing a physical format that contains a lossless-equivalent digital version that can be converted to your bitrate of choice. If that choice changes as your listening needs change, you can re-rip. Until the quality is…

NYS spends more on services in western NY than taxes it collects there. NYC accounts for more than a third of income tax paid to NYS.

Cars should have spare tires. Period.

This sums up the State of NY and the City of NY’s relationship. NYS just sees NYC and Long Island as a piggy bank

In that case they shouldn’t market it as an unlimited plan.

“Dammit! I was just trying to scroll down! POS!”

So Obama is a source of life bringing energy and trump is a dead moon that every now and then stumbles in the way?

I’ve lived in this neighborhood for over a decade. For the first six years, there actually was an ice cream truck that parked about 50 feet away from my building every summer and played its song on a loop, so yes, I’m quite familiar with that experience (in fact, I watched the video at first to see if it was my old…

Way to miss the whole fucking point.

“This is generally a really quiet, serene block,”

Fuck her. She should go back to where she came from.

Yes, this is a 24 hour city.

In summer, when there is no school, kids stay up late.

So yes, this is normal here.

This dumb noise sensitive ninny is the abnormal one by our community standards

This gentrification shit is getting real guys. Speaking from the trenches in Harlem. Went to my local food town on 145th the other day, and there was a white lady rolling her razor scooter through the aisles, she eventually used it instead of a cart to roll her her several jars of mayonnaise through checkout. I think…

There was a restaurant and live music venue that had been here for at least 30 years. The place changed hands a few times but was always very popular and their outside live music area was a great place to hang out.

Lady lives in Manhattan and complains about noise...

Fuck off.

I live in South Philadelphia. I hate noise. I hate ice cream truck jangly music. I am sometimes surrounded by ice cream trucks circling my block like so many tinny voiced predators. And, so what? I couldn’t imagine ever trying to get any of that to stop. This woman is ridiculous.

If you move to New York City for peace and quiet...

Your average New Yorker would walk right past 10 screaming lunatics jack-hammering in front of 20 honking firetrucks running full sirens to get to a raging fire 50 feet away, and not even glance up from their cellphone screens. Fuck this woman.

Fuck this bitch. I’m in my mid thirties and I still get a smile when I first hear the Mr. Softee jingle each spring, and I get a little sad every fall when I don’t hear it anymore.
