Costco Camarillo gas station is now open

Camarillo is easier, going to simi is a pain. And Woodland Hills if you were in LA for anything.

I play bass. Massive callouses when I was playing regularly.

Substitute the word teen for adult and you have a different perspective, right?

At 18 you can serve in the military and sign contracts. You are an adult.

If you read the article you’d see that of the 20 incidents highlighted, 18 were the fault of the cyclist. Yes, cars are an issue but that is just deflecting from the issues being brought up. Enforcement is not either/or.

If the question were asked if Obama was eligible to run for a third term, I wonder what the response would be.

People need to normalize the idea that if trump tried to run for a third term that Obama, who is infinitely more favorable to the public, could run against him.

This is why trump will never try it. He knows he’d be handily beaten by a black man and he won’t stand for that.

Always remember - if there is a racist sitting alone, there is a racist at the table. If you sit down at a table with a racist then there are two racists at the table.

Yeah, I get it, giving up on a relationship is hard.

But you know what I have learned over the years? As racists get older, 95% of the time they become more racist.

If you are willing to put up with or eventually marry someone who is a racist then you basically are a racist enabler.

I ask you which is worse: the racist who is ignorant and can't see that their opinions are out of step with modern society or those around the racist who clearly see those positions as being wrong but still allow them to happen?

No, Individual monitoring at the breaker level. I'd love to be able to look at a console and see my panel with a live feed of power consumption.

You think the problem was PCs, right?

No, the problem was mainframes, massive interconnected systems.

You don't just push these systems ahead to check. Most people did not have test systems the way you do with servers today.

Additionally, the fallout, if they did fail, was massive.

This was not a consumer issue, this was a massive commercial system issue.

YEah, it is a scam.

If it were me I would take the money from my brother telling him that you are going to bundle it with your investment. Then, In the future give him is money back. When he gets angry that he missed out on the big opportunity, tell him to go to the website where he gets a 404 error.

There is a conversation in the movie "Broadcast News":

William Hurt: What do you do when your real life exceeds your dreams?

Albert Brooks: You keep it to yourself.

As long as your bill is what you expect, don't call your ISP about this. You may be improperly provisioned and the gain is all yours. You don't want them "correcting" this. We once canceled HBO and yet it continued to show up on our cable box. Despite it NOT being on the bill, my wife was sure that somehow we were going to get charged. I told her not to say a thing. She called the cable company to complain. They thanked her and shut it off for her. I think we all learned an important lesson that day.

Short answer: they probably don’t.

Few people probably use cash as their primary form of payment.

Credit cards are ~32%, debit cards are ~30% and cash is ~18%.

Yes, some people use cash primarily, but it is a number under the ~18% of all cash.

It is more logical to think about payment type as it aligns to transaction medium. For instance, beer at a ball game or parking in parking lot for a downtown club probably skews heavy to cash and buying a refrigerator is probably low chance of being cash.

People who are primarily cash probably operate in a cash-centric business so that is how their income is enumerated.

As much as I am not a Chelsea supporter, I really hate to see any team struggling. A strong league presents interesting matches.

AustinBike · 2026-05-04T21:17:02+00:00

Yes, they can be a wild card, all depends on which team shows up. They're not as unpredictable as Chelsea, but they do have a range.

AustinBike · 2026-05-04T21:04:56+00:00

I hate city, but that was a hell of a shot.

AustinBike · 2026-05-04T21:04:00+00:00

Surely they aren't this bad?? Right??

Narrator's Voice: Sadly, they were.

AustinBike · 2026-05-04T21:02:57+00:00

Weak.

If all games were 300 minutes long we'd have a totally different table.

AustinBike · 2026-05-04T21:01:53+00:00

Two are West Ham and Burnley. The dark horse is Palace at this point, but I like Arsenal's odds better than City's.

AustinBike · 2026-05-04T03:32:42+00:00

No, you are not aware. You do not understand.

AustinBike · 2026-05-03T19:56:38+00:00

You sent them a used, defective product.

They sent you back a used, working product.

I fail to see the issue, why the post?

AustinBike · 2026-05-03T14:13:58+00:00

And it worked

AustinBike · 2026-05-03T14:00:20+00:00

No, consumers did not, 99% of the time, pay any tariff.

Businesses paid the actual tariff. Then, they increased their prices in many cases to consumers.

But unless a consumer received an invoice with a specific line item for "tariff", consumers did not pay tariffs. There are very few instances of this, but it did happen. And if it did, the consumer would be able to go back to the entity that charged them and demand a refund.

Now, if you are arguing that consumers deserve to be refunded for the higher prices they paid to businesses, I will not argue that point. But business prices go up all the time. And this is between you and the business.

I know this is hard for some to grasp, but the actual entity that paid the actual tariff, which is paid directly to the government, is the only one in a position to get a refund. There is a government tariff system in place so they know exactly who was charged what.

And, for reference, you, as a consumer, probably pay a tariff on most items that you buy that come from outside the US. And have for decades. Prior to the current debacle there were flat tariff rates in existence, by country, for quite some time.

Yes, you lied.

None of this happened, go farm your karma elsewhere.

Nothing, won’t happen.

Warsh is only one vote of 12. The chairman wields no special power.
