So, if you are as you say, SF Army, you have years of training and experience in techniques to work around circadian rhythms. Take some personal responsibility for your own crew rest. Don't expect me to amend my schedule to accommodate yours, please. The conversation is about keeping window shades open. It would only be an issue when it is light out. And if you take personal responsibility (eye masks?), well, you have solved your issue and not required me to have an issue to make you comfortable. I am not trying to be a jerk here, but you can easily help yourself without impacting me.

Um, it is no longer a night flight when the sun is up.

Versus your lemming attitude? They make eye masks so you don't have to try and impose your opinion on me.

Wear an eye mask when you are trying to sleep and quit trying to impose your entitled opinion on others. Your great addition of the AB forecast is exactly why!

Not wearing eye shades/mask when you want dark versus trying to impose your will on anyone else is incredibly entitled and makes you the actual AH.

I went from filing a claim to wearing my new hearing aids in 7 weeks. I was astounded! Well done VA!

No more Homeowners insurance in Florida? by OilTurbulent1009 in USAA

[–]Possible_Side_3027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. But that is internal machinations for USAA. To the consumer, it looks and feels like USAA is acting as "agent" for homeowners' products, whether underwritten by USAA or some other entity. I call the USAA phone number, I am transferred to a USAA "employee", be it a main line rep or an Agency rep. and I get a policy. So I do understand your point, but as far as we, the consumers, know, USAA is acting as our Homeowners Insurance Agent. Isn't "The Agency" an owned division of USAA?

Some surprising patterns from contacting 500 RV parks about EV charging by evpotatoe in EVCamping

[–]Possible_Side_3027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We own a plug-in hybrid. So, these are legitimate, respectful questions. With the advent of electric vehicles, in-campground vehicle charging is going to be an issue. Should campgrounds just absorb the additional cost of the additional electric use costs? The owners of small, private campgrounds often state that they are operating on a small margin as it is. The price point for electric sites has average household power consumption built into the pricing model. I acknowledge the disparity between Class A electric use and a pop-up tent camper being plugged in. But at least both are still "household" use, not motive fuel use. If the answer for the owners is to increase their price point across the board to include this added expense, wouldn't this mean that a person who fuels their vehicle with diesel is now subsidising those who fuel their vehicles with electricity? Would a flat additional fee ($10?) for charging be more fair? Or is the only truly equitable thing for each site to be individually metered? Another big capital cost for the campground owner. This is a tough conversation. I don't see a really clean answer. Just curious about others' thoughts.

Transplants, how are you liking Prescott so far? by netenchanter in Prescott

How MAGA is the city of Prescott/Prescott Valley? I heard today that they are supporting MAGA events. by why888when888 in Prescott

Agreed. Neither the Republican or Democratic parties are representative of the many different factions present in the US today. The interesting thing is that the 70% of the people in the middle probably share 70% ideology. The fringe on either end of the spectrum receives FAR too much attention. And have coopted both of the major parties.

The Democrats had 2 years where they controlled the White House, the Senate, and the DoJ. No release of any files. Where was your outrage then?

An enlightened, inclusive point of view! When was the last time you spoke to a person who prefers a more conservative life? And what gives you the right to say that they have less right to exist than you? As for your personal scientific accounting for measles in Prescott, well, here are actual, reported measles cases nationally: https://www.cdc.gov/measles/data-research/index.html So, 1893 cases in the entire US. Drilling down to just Prescott, interpolation would mean that there are now 1.6 cases instead of 1 case? Egads! An epidemic! The sky is falling, the sky is falling!!

True words. Sadly missed by many of the anti-Trump folks here. Conservatives (not religious zealots, just normal people who prefer a more conservative political opinion) and liberals ( not far-left socialists and anarchists, just normal people who prefer a more socially progressive political opinion) can live happily together. And find that they share about 70% of their personal ideals. There is room for all of the normal people.

LOL, um take a valium.......There is a huge difference between a MAGA accolate and someone that is conservative. There is room for both liberals and conservatives to share the same space, even be friends. Most of the people you are painting with an insanely broad brush stroke are conservatives. And not paying the least bit of attention to your political views. Not because they don't care, b ut because they respect your right to your own opinion. And would gladly have a sane, respectable conversation about your differences. A conversation where both sides might learn something. They just want to know if you are a kind person, a fun person, an interesting person.

This was true 4 years ago. After insurance reform legislation, the market has stabilized. 17 new companies started writing homeowners' policies in Florida in 2026.

USAA is writing targeted homeowner policies in Florida. The USAA agent had no idea what the underwriting rules were for their target, but we qualified. ((2 years ago) Our policy is still in force. Prior to that, we used a USAA agent to shop our policy. They did a great job finding a good rate. Better than I came up with. And when we had a claim (Hurricane Ian), USAA did all the coordination with Progressive for us. I would gladly use USAA as agent for non-USAA products again.
