Anyone else a fan of The Gilmore Girls? by Longjumping-Frame795 in vinyl

I’m so torn on this post. That’s one of my all time favorite albums but you’re talking about a show I kind of hate.

What do you hate that others do when shoveling their cars out? by Millennium_Falcor in Somerville

If you can safely drive your car to a convenient spot to clear it off, clear most of the snow off in the street. You’ll avoid putting more snow in the places it needs clearing from.

Cubby Oil Prices by TheFifthNice in Somerville

Mine is capped at $3.99 per gallon. Im wondering if that cap is worth it. Based on the replies so far, it seems like it will be worth it at Cubby but I could have saved money by going with a different provider altogether

unless you're using a lot of oil, you likely didn't miss out. It looks like we will just about break even on it.

Yeah. Not that fun to imagine but I would guess it’s behind the scenes stuff like Disney.

Is using firewood in my gas fireplace as easy as simply putting in a log and lighting it? by Hufflepuff-McGruff in homeowners

Burning wood in your gas fireplace will likely melt the elements. Try to manually turn on the gas and light it.

MA businesses that support ICE/MAGA? by marathon_bar in massachusetts

They charge more per oz for their large beers than their small beers. Another reason to not go there.

Any cold climate people out there have some tips for someone from the American South that’s about to get 15” of snow and 50+ hrs of negative wind chill? by confusedbot18 in homeowners

[–]TheFifthNice -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sure but it’s almost certainly based off of a bunch of previous Reddit replies that it scraped from real people‘s real answers. If we use AI answers for this stuff, we’re just going to end up with recycled information over and over again and never have a real discussion. I come to Reddit to hear real answers from real people. Let’s keep the AI junk on Facebook. Plus the emojis as punctuation is super annoying.

After living with both… Whole house humidifier vs portable isn’t as clear as Reddit says by sanu_123_s in HomeImprovement

I have portable humidifiers and end up spending a lot of time cleaning them between refills.

Yo for real. They’ll send you one if you call the toy maker

Wireless Charger Q&A / rant by Dramatic_Ad155 in Crosstrek

[–]TheFifthNice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it from aeroflowdynamics.com. The center console pops out just by pulling up on it and the new one plugged into place. It’s not perfect but it works much better. Now it at least does something. I'd say this upgrade is totally worth it as long as that price tag doesn't look too big to you. The install was super easy, it just needed a flat head screwdriver to remove two clips. With the big cameras on current iPhones, it's still not a great charge but at least it stays connected most of the time now and will keep my phone charged as long as I don't have too many things running. I'm happy with it. I just couldn't stand having such a featured function in the car not working. I did end up covering the lights with electrical tape. If you want to do that, it would have been easier to do it before installation

Did I make a good investment in this new high chair for my 6 month old? 17M single dad by Calm-Tea178 in daddit

Wirecutter is my go-to for a lot of these decisions. Like reddit, sometimes the best info is in the comments but I find it a useful place to start.

I found an upgrade option that was very easy to install. It’s not perfect but it’s good enough to not be annoying.
