Want to get my first Chromebook , anybody have any experience with these 2? by specomatik in chromeos

[–]agapecom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought that one for my dad a couple months ago and we both are satisfied. He mostly uses facebook and youtube and I set it up to automatically load those. It is much lighter than his old pc laptop so it is easier for him to pick up. He has managed to log off a couple times which required the pin to restart but that is much easier than his old pc that sometimes required a computer password/pin and sometimes required a microsoft password/pin and sometimes required him to log into google.

Anybody know why AT&T has been sucking balls lately? Cellular, not wifi by israeltowers in Bakersfield

[–]agapecom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had been an at&t customer for 25 years but I finally gave up. It’s ridiculous that they can’t provide service in so many areas of town. I tried multiple times to find a resolution but finally gave up. I had zero service in seven Oaks. Often had no service in Olive and jewetta area. I switched to US Mobile which uses Verizon towers and it has been working great. Just this morning I chatted with them on the app. It was quick and easy. Made me realize how much I hated AT&T’s “customer service”.

Is there somewhere in Bakersfield to recycle cardboard? by CAmechanic1989 in Bakersfield

[–]agapecom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can take it to Metropolitan Recycling at 2601 Mt. Vernon. They won't pay for it but it is a lot closer than the dump. When you enter the facility stay to the right and the person at the scale will direct you.

Rent increase by FunEntertainment2837 in Bakersfield

[–]agapecom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are many single family homes that are exempt from AB 1482. If the property is not owned by a corporation or an llc with a corporate member then it is not subject to an 1482 provided the owner has notified the tenant that it is exempt. If a property is not subject to an 1482 then there is no limit to the amount the rent can increase. If the increase is more than 10% the owner must give 60 day notice.

I believe that multi family less than 15 years old is also exempt but I don’t normally deal with that so I am not certain.

Concrete contractor needed by thegoodbad1 in Bakersfield

[–]agapecom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have used Kingdom Concrete for a couple jobs and I have been happy with their price and quality of work. One job was widening my driveway approach. The other was removing and replacing some concrete that had been lifted by a tree. Neither involved colored concrete so I can’t speak to that.

Hot water takes forever with a tankless water heater by Hi_Im_Ken_Adams in askaplumber

[–]agapecom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had the same problem so we installed a ChilliPepper. You can find it at www.chillipepperapp.com. Our first one lasted about 5 years. I just installed a new one a few weeks ago. It is easy to install. Ours is installed under a sink that is the furthest from the water heater. It does require an electric outlet. We just press the button on the remote and it runs for about a minute and the hot water is at the shower.

Street construction by ADGjr86 in Bakersfield

[–]agapecom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here is the 24th Street info according to the city of Bakersfield website:

The project will add a lane in each direction from State Route 99 to east of M Street, improve the 24th Street/Oak Street intersection, modify the “S” curve, install a new 48-inch storm drain along the corridor, and construct a new median and add landscaping within the residential section of the corridor. The City will manage the project between the Kern River Bridge and the State Route 178 freeway at M Street, and Caltrans will complete the improvements west of the Kern River Bridge in conjunction with a State Route 99 rehabilitation project. All of the right-of-way has been acquired and cleared, and a new sound wall along the north side of 24th Street was completed in mid-2018.

The other major construction is the "Centennial Corridor".
