I hope you can take some solace in the fact that you gave her a good life and made her feel loved. May you one day meet again.

I feel this. Getting tired of living through historical events.

These are great, learned 2 new words I never heard before. Slightly related, but in fine fettle can also be used to refer to someone in good shape (mentally or physically).

Own a '22 Bolt EUV. Been a phenomenal car for our needs, e.g. daily commute, grocery runs, weekend family trips w/ the dog, etc. Hope more car companies continue to offer smaller, efficient vehicles instead of focusing solely on large trucks and SUVs.

Awesome shot!

Nice progress. A sharp tool makes a world of difference. As far as the shavings, mine usually go in the composter. A buddy of mine gives them away to people with chickens.

Ah, you’re back

True, Net Metering 3.0 made paybacks longer, although if you apply your tax credits to your loan it’s still reasonable. Though I’d point out that there’s no break even point if you’re just paying PG&E. With a solar loan, your payments are locked in vs subject to rate increases and after its paid off, you essentially eliminate your electric bill. I’m just speaking from personal experience though so YMMV.

I agree that housing affordability is difficult in CA and that renters have less options in this regard.

That’s crazy. Is solar an option? It’s close to $120/mo depending on how many panels you get and the terms of the loan/lease. And if you buy you get up to a 1/3 of it back in tax credit (assuming you owe enough).

The kicker is that a vast amount of these stadiums are paid for by tax payers. We’re subsidizing billionaires to build these things that we still have to pay to use instead of investing in public spaces and transportation/infrastructure projects

Same, the physical camera button and 3.5mm headphone jack on the Xperia are awesome

Haven’t had this particular brand, but I’ve made vegan musubi before with another. Turned out great and tbh I couldn’t tell the difference. The only downside was the price difference.

That’s awesome. Almost looks like fan art, but IMO has more charm than CGI

Nice! Looks like ideal weather. Was this a loop or an out-and-back?

Local elections have the most impact on our daily lives and are often decided by razor thin margins. Vote on the entire ballot!

I appreciate that Upthegrove is the only candidate who said he decided not to take money from the logging industry. If we need any reminders of the consequences of politicians selling out our public lands to corporate interest, look no further than what the GOP tried doing in FL behind the public’s. back.

Love retro sedans, hope some of the themes make it to market. Hyundai has been crushing it with design, IMO the Ioniqs are the best futuristic looking cars without being too out there. The N Vision 74 is a nostalgia fans dream.

Stoked. I missed playing MGS3 when it first came out and am glad to hear this remake is exactly like the original because I hear it was arguably the best in the series.

Guessing it’s the Ranger Lightning instead of the Maverick EV. Personally I’d prefer the compact truck with bed capacity for 4x8 ft sheet goods.

Awesome job! Digging the small details like the relief cuts on the post bracings. Also cool bat box. I have bare earth around my garden shed and it’s not too much work to keep it clear of weeds but depends on the type of soil.
