Playing this game makes me realize how impressive Manning’ 2013 season was

My QB after his best season. After 16 games I posted 54 tds, one shy of his record

This came to me in a high dream - spaghetti alla nerano topped with fried squash flowers and Parmesan saffron cream

I came up with this after a couple of edibles, this pasta idea was the only thing I remember from that night

Pho 75 - Arlington

Broth was especially good tonight, even compared to their usually excellent broth. They also gave me a ton of fatty beef slices, which I was very happy about.

My wife pretty much refused to go anywhere else ever since Golden Cow closed their Falls Church location

Any way to get this bike lane blocking Zipcar moved?

There’s a zipcar parked in the bike line on Columbia and 20th and the last user decided to park it directly in the bike lane rather than in the parking spot. Anyone way to get moved? It’s been parked that way for a couple of days now

Anyone recognize this tweed fabric from this Edward Sexton suit?

Just picked up a Edward Sexton suit from TheRealReal and it has a fascinating fabric with multicolored flecks, I've seen lots of interesting multicolored tweeds but nothing like this one.

Sushi Tsumugi in Shinjuku

This place was recommended by a friend and was close to our hotel in Shinjuku. Probably the best sushi meat I’ve had and the lunch special pictured here was only 4,000 yen a person

Got lucky on TRR and picked these up for $250

Got these on The Real Real for $250 and they seem legit and fit great. Anything I should note for taking care of them? They’re my first pair of actually nice shoes

EU261 rules around weather delay?

My wife and I recently flew UA127 (FCO–IAD, July 6, 2026). Departure was delayed from 3:20pm to 6:19pm due to a late-arriving inbound aircraft (rotation issue). At the gate, boarding was further delayed because the catering truck got into a collision, requiring meal replacement. Original scheduled arrival was 7:40pm; we landed and had an extended tarmac hold due to a lightning storm before reaching the gate, pushing our total arrival delay past 3 hours to 4 hours and 32 minutes. We were definitely going to miss the 3 hour window, but with the weather, it pushed it further.

Filed an EU261 claim directly with United citing the arrival delay. They denied it, attributing the entire disruption to “inclement weather” as an extraordinary circumstance — without addressing that the delay was already close to 3 hours from the rotation delay and catering incident alone, before weather ever factored in. Offered a $100 e-certificate each as a goodwill gesture instead.

Is it worth trying to escalate, and has anyone else had a similar experience? Or do I just take the $100?

Cruciani & Bella: great tie store in Rome

Went after it was suggested in the Permanent Style article about Rome. Fantastic ties using either Roman or British fabrics. Some great repp and critter ties but I ended up getting middle tan one and brown plaid one in the last photo.

There’s also a defects rack on photo 3, the ties have small to tiny imperfections and are only €50 each. Highly recommend to anyone here in Rome.

Pho Saigon Pearl - Arlington

Finally got to try this place, pho broth was incredibly clear, honestly too clear imo. I usually prefer a clear broth like Pho 75 but this one basically had no spice flavor. Still good though and would come back

Broth is amazing as always, pretty sure they raised the prices a little again

Anyone tried to play AC3 Portable on PPSSPP on iPhone?

Has anyone figured out a good control scheme for iPhone emulation? I tried reassigning to stick look and d pad walk with triggers to shoot but it’s still so clunky! Two thumbs only make it harder than anything I’ve ever done in ACFA (the only other AC I’ve finished completely)

How to change unit scale on Mac?

I was hoping to tweak the unit scale in the preferences.script.txt on NTW on a Mac, however, when I open the txt file it only shows the letter "w" and nothing else? None of the lines are there to modify, like campaign_unit_multiplier line. Should I use a mod instead since this txt isn't working for me?

Can you add tubeless sealant to glued tubulars?

I’ve got a pair of glued Challenge Elite tubular tires on a bike with vintage Shamal wheels, unfortunately the tires have a very slow leak (drains flat over a day). Is it possible to put modern tubeless sealant into these glued tubular tires rather than having to buy a new tire and replace?

Pho 75 - Arlington

We arrived at 7:30pm and the broth was definitely more flavorful than the times we’ve gone earlier. Convinced that as the service goes on the pho reduces / broth is better closer to the bottom of the pot. I also think they changed beef suppliers, the beef is more tender and less gristley
