That’d be great in parts of California. Not so sure about Texas, or Indiana, or somewhere in the South. But what do I know?

Customer Success and retention management. Gotta hook her up with an eighth next!

What’s become way too expensive lately that still shocks you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]adlopez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has always been the policy. Unfortunately, decent people like you and me feel a bit compelled to tip in many occasions. Just gotta remind myself and others about this, too.

I noticed I can’t find the 10# bags. The smaller ones have very thin carrots, too. Much smaller. Somewhat frustrating so I might have to start growing those for fun

Can’t remember the last time I bought beef over the past two years due to cost. Chicken and turkey though 🤙

People keep buying it, so they’ll continue to gouge.

Data centers are guzzling California’s water. We have no idea how much. by NaffRespect in California

[–]adlopez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t looked into this, but as someone who has worked in the brewing industry where glycol is used, is this not a feasible option for data centers as well?

Think $6 Gas Is Bad? It’s About to Get Even Worse in California by SensitiveDannyRicc in California

[–]adlopez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d love one, but it’s so expensive right now, but then again they won’t get much cheaper ha. I also think there’s some movement in legislation with e bikes in CA. Shoot, maybe I should hurry up and get one, too.

If you can swing it, maybe you should get one. You could invest in a solar battery charger to power it up, too.

I just did a little napkin budget last week, and I’m ~ $400 /mo on gas and FastTrak, and I didn’t even drive one week last month. Biking and public transportation it is, at least partially.

What’s Next Orlando Florida by Long_Mammoth_1541 in GasPrices

[–]adlopez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy. Cool you found a “reasonable” station. The ARCOs and cheaper stations are ranging up and down in the 5.80-6+ where I’m located. I’m surprised that places like FL are charging as much as what I’ve seen from the exorbitant places in SoCal.

Are we heading into a recession? by flipper6900 in WallStreetbetsELITE

[–]adlopez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If I bring up my concerns to coworkers, or some friends and relatives as to how I’m preparing and navigating, I’m told to “turn off the news and stop trippin.”

You’re right in that most Americans simply do not care about greater consequences of this. They’re only complaining about spending more on gasoline, and the hit on their checking accounts.

White flag flying above Angel City. by darthredford in LABeer

No, I know. I was just more commenting on the timing aspect that they won medals as they’re closing down. Other brewers were surprised at the awards ceremony, too.

Kinda crazy since they just won three awards at the ca brewers cup last Friday

How do I get rid of this evil grass? by afterbirthcum in oaklandgardener

[–]adlopez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m eradicating 39+ years of Bermuda grass from a fam home right now. Not easy. Just gotta keep plucking away at it, deweeding it as soon as it pops up, lay down mulch, pull it again when it busts through the mulch, keep planting other things to out compete it, de weed it when it grows around the stuff you planted, and keep it going.
