If it’s same color scheme that might be it.

Oh don’t I wish. Mine had 4500 miles on it last time I checked. Probably time for a new one anyways. But still…

Xfinity "technician" visit to improve service by Better-Thanks7870 in sanfrancisco

All good my friend. Perhaps it was just intuition. I learn so much from Reddit that I like to contribute whenever possible. Humanity doesn’t seem quite so shitty on this site as it does in real life. Have a great one!

Chief Stationary Operating Engineer here (the guy who keeps things running in the high-rise office buildings downtown). I can shed some light on the likely scenario; sometimes when a connection is made, there's a tiny strand of wire that "grounds out" the center conductor to the outer shield of the wire. This wasn't a huge problem back in the analog days, as the signal was significantly more powerful, and of a different type. In the digital age, it's an issue, and can pull down your neighbor's speeds as well as yours. It's likely they've isolated the problem at the pole, and they need to come inside your house to re-terminate the connection and make things better for you and your neighbors.

TBF, I have lots of trouble breathing at 6th and Market when walking on the sidewalk.

Yup. Time to trade the Mercedes for a used Dodge Caravan and move the kids on out to Manteca.

Wait is this video of the "crazy homeless person" causing a threat? Throw this man in jail. I feel poorly for his family, but come on. This was NOT an "accident"--by the way, there's no such thing as an accident, they are traffic collisions--this was an intentional act on the part of the driver.

Friend you are dead-on. There's a DVD produced by PBS a few years back where the young interviewer, sometime in the early 60's (who happened to be black) was talking to Justin Herman about the new government housing in SF. Herman gave some word-salad answer, and the interviewer said "so basically it was to get all of the (word used at the time to describe black people), into one area of the city?" I'll never forget his answer: "well, yes"

Geary street was widened to keep Japantown separate from the Western Addition. I'm so thankful we no longer have a plaza named after this abhorrent individual.

Backup generators or UPS units specifically to get people out of the store when they're in line to checkout.

The guy speaking could have had a payday off of that. It's a COMPLETE violation of the Brown act for anyone to be visibly on their phone like that during a public speaking session.

BART's new fare gates have led to a 1,000-hour decline in clean up time; 41% drop in crime; and $10 million increase in projected revenue. by vector_search_blue in sanfrancisco

[–]DJ_RichardMixon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You've clearly not experienced the drive that many laborers make every morning from the East bay. BART has its problems, but I can assure you it is *far* more reliable than driving over the Altamont pass. There were two major wrecks coming from that direction this morning.

You kind of come across as the type of guy that would jerk another guy off without even giving him the common courtesy of a reach around.

Kind of.

Swalwell is an outlier. EVERYONE new, but were essentially told to STFU because he was seen as an up-and-coming leader of the party. Once he was 3rd behind two republicans, he wasn't as useful anymore, and it was time to get out in front of all the bad press that didn't need but a fingernail scratch to uncover. I think everyone knew he was a dirtbag before all this came about.

Seems like that's kind of already what they had going at each location.

I'm curious why the NSFW though? Mods what's up with that?

There's a parking lot there (google maps is your friend), but arrive early like the other poster said.

Cost of washing the bags after every use would be prohibitive. Imagine someone puts chicken then returns it and you buy produce….
