I have a friend who livestreams and is going to Armenia for 3 weeks for his IRL job and to stream while he is there. Does he have any options? Says he can't use his phone as a hotspot cause the connection isn't good enough and wants to prepare. What would be the bare minimum?

Smokies thread? Going to be staying in Seveierville TN in a cabin with a few lads

While in Gatlinburg, check out Greenbrier and the Heirloom Room, best restaurants/bars IMO. Not a lot of middle ground in the area, its either low-end food thats overpriced or excellent food thats underpriced.

Mt LeConte hike is a solid one especially after days of mountain biking and hiking.

Joyce Kilmer loops are very pretty old growth Tulip Poplar walk, nice in late Spring/early Summer after dinner as the fireflies get going. But those loops themselves don't offer views. There are other trails there, but the start was overgrown and looked ticky and rattlery and copperheady plus higher up the internet says the trail gets tough to track across bare patches of hill.

The quiet walks are peaceful.
Kuwohi/Clingman loves to fog/cloud up.

Cade's Cove is very popular on the Tennessee side.

Ocoee is fun but weekend only. Nantahala is a mellow float but pretty gorge and you can do your own rubber kayak.
Chattooga was by far the best, at least before Helene, but Clayton is far from the Smokies and Gatlinburg.

I have always stayed on the NC side and I much prefer that. Smokies west and Blue Ridge East.

For mountain bikers not into gnarly stuff, Tsali nearby is very fun, as is Jackrabbit down in Hayesville at/past the SW end of Nantahala Gorge.

One thing I've learned traveling to Europe and elsewhere is there's no getting away from subhumans, except in the US, you are forced to be around them as most places are crowded and everyone uses public transport. At least in the US you can have a car, live in a gated community or rural area. Fuck Europe it's sad they suicided but it's literally over, paradise to shithole in one generation thanks to Merkel

>>2897022
its all a bit "grass is greener" and it works both ways.
Americans go to the scenic places in Europe, live in luxury because they saved for the trip, walking is a novelty to them, zero stress. Immediately the thought "life is better here". Yeah no shit life is better living in luxury and extremely low stress.

Believe me Europeans and Brits feel the same when we travel to US.

Anthony was kind of a failson of New York execs. A punk rock kid who became a chef and got hooked on heroin. Eventually got clean.
He wrote a (good) book about being a chef called Kitchen Confidential. His NYTimes mom got it published, and he became a star overnight. He was like a daywalker, able to class.
He got offered the Travel Channel show and carried over a punk rock energy that other shows just didn't have at the time. Samantha Brown cheerily posing with Beefeaters at the Tower of London was something people had seen before.
Anthony mopeding around Vietnam and eating street food wasn't.
Yes, he was a boomer and promulgated some cringe lib takes on his show from time to time.
His peak episodes were in 2012 when he went to Italy and France with chef bros in Season 9 Episodes 4 and 5.
If he figured out anything, it was that if you play with fire, you're going to get burned.

It depends what you want to do, but it's very possible to see a lot of nature in Borneo without a tour package. I went to Kuching (Sarawak) and just used Grab (basically Uber) to have drivers take me to various parks. Some are far as fuck though so it would be best if you offer to pay them extra to pick you up later or the next day. The drivers have their own little network where they'll hook you up with another driver friend who'll pick you up if they're unavailable.

Holy shit I did not think it possible for something to be less soulless than fucking Seoul. The air sucks, the food portions suck, the weather sucks, the "local transportation" is ass, everyone smells like sewage or curry, you run through things and then it's just "mall mall mall hey did you want to check out that small attraction at the mall?" from anyone you meet. Bars are just awful filled with obvious chinese scammers or old fucks from UK, sometimes passing business people. Try to look online for interesting things, you can blow out KL in like 2.5 weeks of going out, and everyone just says "never run out of things,,," and don't get me started at 5AM singing.

Is there any saving grace for this place?

Sounds like KL. KL isn't much. It's just the administrative centre. You gotta get out of the city centre for what you're looking for. Go to Borneo, for instance. Can't get much further than that. Try Sibu, maybe. A few years ago i would have recommended Kuching/Kota Kinabalu, but modernization. Don't expect the world to sit still for tourism. It's unfair for us, who want to have modern stuff too.

Starting in Aprile of next year, I will go live near Copenhagen for about six months, for work reasons. I will stay there until about September or October 2027.
I think it'd be a good idea to seize the opportunity and visit the Faroe Islands. I haven't checked thoroughly yet, but I think direct flights from Copenhagen or some other Danish airport would be the cheapest and most convenient way to reach the Faroe.
I'm torn on when exactly I should plan my visit. The most obvious option would be either July or August, so I have as many hours of sunlight as possible, but I'm worried about crowds and high prices. That's the reason I'm also considering September. I am mostly going there for hiking. If I can eat whale meat and see (or eat) puffins, that's even better.
Any insight or discussion regarding the Faroe would be welcome. Is it really necessary to rent a car or is it feasible to move around just with public transport?
>>
>>2903161
worth it
>>
>>2903161
If you can then get a car, more rural places have very few buses per day and you arent tied to them that way.
From my expirience faroes are all about the atmosphere. Living in some grass covered roof cotage,hiking the cliffs, panoramics views ect. Somw people will get bored of it in a span of 1-2days, but its an wxpirience for the others.
Everything is pricy thou because of the danes control the trade, weather can be an ass and change suddenly ( like torrential rains all day) so prepare some good jacket. Theres none vegetation/trees beside one park in capital and airport can be a bitch to land on (ive been to 60 countries, got houndred airports under my belt, but faores was actualy the worst one when it comes to lanfing. We corcled it like 30 min, when back to scotland to refill, because pilot didnt want to risk it. Then we tried another time and despite havy covrage that dude decided to try one time before he gave up. There was a havy turbulance and suddenly a vliffhead appeared like 30m from the wing. He did a 30% sudden turn because otherwise we would hit it with our wing. I like to fly but that landing was a bit terrifing.

it depends on where you're going, what part of brooklyn you're talking about, and what you plan on doing after work. chances are you're not living in downtown brooklyn, you're going to be living a bit farther in around bushwick or ridgewood which is where most yuppies move to these days. if you have to get to midtown everyday for work that means you have to take a subway all the way through brooklyn, all they way through the financial district, through lower manhattan to finally make it to your office, which would suck. if you work in the financial district its worth it. it also depends on what you're going to be doing after work. if you plan on going out to raves and clubs every day definitely live in brooklyn. if you're looking for good grocery stores where you can pick up fresh ingredients every day and cook a good meal for yourself, live in queens.

dating in the city isn't really about where you are, its about who you are. girls here really only want to date known guys, popular guys, and rich guys. if you don't have a lot of followers on instagram, or you don't have 5 million+ net worth, or you don't have a lot of friends, you're probably not getting laid a ton. if you're tall and attractive its always a different story, you'll be able to pull here, but you'll instantly be met with tall and attractive guys who are also very interesting. that being said, hanging out in brooklyn bars is way easier to pick up girls in than queens bars because brooklyn tends to be younger and more "wild" than queens. but Gen Z really isn't partying as much as millennial women at all, so don't expect anything too grand. if you're still under 27 you can go to bars around FIT or NYU downtown manhattan and hit on grad students but they are extremely picky. other than that, most bars are going to be sausage fests, and you're going to be competing with the best of the best men from all over the world to even get a scrap of pussy.

Damn! Ok thanks for the info. I’m not rich or tall so I guess I’m fucked. I’m also older now so that’s off the table. I guess I didn’t think about how stiff the competition is there. Just seemed like a cool city to always have something to do.

This dudes advice comes fom some BS MMRA or whatever that crap is called? MGTOW?

Oh a nice cologne is a must too. Some People might laugh at you but believe me Gen Z has NEVER seen this disco shit before its grandpa shit.

I am not saying you will get millionaire bitches but someone 27 years old, bored out of their mind nobody will dick them or even talk to them because everyone is too scared of not being rich enough, you will be likely one of the only guys even there trying.

Definitely give off that immigrant vibe its important.

>I’m not rich or tall so I guess I’m fucked. I’m also older now so that’s off the table
not entirely what i said. if you're interesting, like if you're a stand up comedian or actor with a lot of followers or if your a jacked firefighter with some good stories or if you're a top lawyer/doctor/architect that makes great money chances are you can find a girl somewhat consistently, but there's always going to be someone better than you. age really only matters if you don't have anything to show for it.

>>2905080
the only thing this guy is right about is the immigrant thing. the white girls here, who are almost all extremely liberal to the point of being black power, muslim focused communists, are all obsessed with fucking the absolute ugliest, most foreign brown men they can to prove to everyone that they are in fact the most liberal among them. there's a general hate for white men across the city, but its strongest among them. which makes it hard for me because i only fuck white girls. i turn down indian and black somewhat regularly, i never get approached by white women, unless they're jewish.

>What is this thread? Why are there two generals?
/rcg/ was initially created as a way for the roller coaster enthusiasts on here to discuss all things roller coasters and theme parks. While roller coasters are the main focus of these threads (and the title of the general) there is also discussion on other theme parks, their rides, as well as the parks themselves and trip planning too. That's where /tpg/ comes in.
>Can I talk about Disney/Universal parks in this thread?
Absolutely! Disney/Universal discussion of all sorts including rides/resorts/dining/trip planning is OK.

General Rules:
1. Talk about Theme Parks and/or Rollercoasters.
2. There is no second rule.
