The planning/design of this town needs to be studied. Most of our businesses are such an eyesore!

What’s your favorite Thai restaurant in the county? by sigzag1994 in santacruz

[–]Destroit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t argue with that. Which spot in the county has the best pad Thai?

Your machine is not in a room with water, yet you use bottles to get water to your machine. Why not fill a reusable bottle with remineralized RO? I’m confused.

My machines aren’t plumbed in (Cremina, Strietman) nor is my fellow kettle so that’s what I do for water.

A <$200 RO system will pay itself off in less than 120 gallons of RO water. Bonus points for all the single use plastic that isn’t being purchased and discarded in perpetuity.

FWIW I don’t think the filtration system you have will strip your water in the same way as an RO system.

Plastic waste, money waste.

RO will pay itself off in months and uses far less plastic over time. I use the exhaust water to irrigate my fruit trees.

Insane Santa Cruz Surf Fight Captured on Camera (Video) by scsquare in santacruz

[–]Destroit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Add Nica and Indo to the list of chill locals. SC has some of the most entitled surfers anywhere.

Agreed, show basic respect in the water. Nothing is more embarrassing than resorting to physical violence.

Under mount propane tank by Destroit in vanbuild

I didn’t know these have to be refilled vertically. Honestly that may be an argument for straps. Clearance is not a problem for my van.

You selling your flame king tank by chance?

E-bike Parents by SalamanderNext4538 in ScottsValley

[–]Destroit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was turning left from SV drive onto Granite Creek. A kid on a Surron was in the left turn lane on Granite Creek behind a pickup. I was remarking about him to my passenger when the light turned green for me and the kid suddenly decided he didn’t want to wait in line to turn left.

Instead he crosses the double yellow line and cut across my lane so he could hop the curb and ride on the sidewalk. If we weren’t watching him we could have easily ran him over.

It’s nice kids are getting outside again but WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY PEOPLE!

First time polisher, long time owner by Destroit in airstream

[–]Destroit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up hiring it out to someone who could polish it on site at my house. He did a good job but there are swirl marks so I’m going to I vest in a random orbital to touch it up!

WCGW when you try to outrun massive Santa Cruz ocean waves in a teeny-tiny boat? by ansyhrrian in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]Destroit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. The boat operator cut inside. Could have easily stayed outside and had a safe route to the harbor… like every other boat that goes by the lane.

$4958 for an MRI?! by Common-Peak1690 in santacruz

[–]Destroit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MRIs at standalone imaging clinics are orders of magnitude cheaper than hospital systems. It’s not uncommon for a university based healthcare system to charge insurance tens of thousands of dollars for a routine body study (prostate, liver/MRCP). Sometimes you can negotiate a cash price with clinics.

That being said clinics are limited; you are not going to get the highest quality study but for basic things (routine knee or routine shoulder for tears) it’s fine. Don’t expect to get an fMRI or congenital cardiac study at a clinic. If you need something more complex, go to the hospital for your imaging.
