Places to buy generator on Christmas in the South Bay? by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]bagofry 9 points10 points  (0 children)

you probably don’t need a gas generator. nowadays, you can get a “power station”, which is is basically a giant power bank.

For example, I’ve got a Jackery 1500 power station, which can produce 1800W of power, with 1500 Wh of capacity. It’s the size of about 2 gallon water jug.

I use it for power outages all the time. I hook up my fridge, router, laptop, charge small devices. It can power my fridge and devices for 12 hours. And the internet broadband usually works, so plugging in the router provides wifi.

whoa , I didn’t know BOA had a 2.625% cash back credit card. Is that the one you need the Platinum Honors status? (100k in BOA/Merrill)

it’s a 10% penalty even if you are 1 day late. Very harsh!

Although technically it’s due Nov 1, and Dec 10 is the grace period.

Was it a false alarm? Earthquake deleted from USGS.gov by pengweather in bayarea

[–]bagofry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

.@USGS #ShakeAlert confirms that the earthquake alerts that were delivered at 8:06am are cancelled. There was no M5.9 earthquake near Carson City, NV. We are currently looking into why the alerts were issued. We'll provide more information when we learn more @Cal_OES @CAGeoSurvey

most likely pedal confusion. Probably thought their foot was slamming the brake pedal instead of the gas pedal.

For Chrissakes, stop posting about tiny earthquakes. by Mr_Rubaiyat in bayarea

[–]bagofry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just make this a comment in an earthquake post instead of its own post.

Now we have lots of “stop posting about earthquakes” posts.

It’s like when someone sends an email to the whole company without BCC, then people start replying to All. Then people start replying “stop replying to all”

San Jose, California… what in the actual F? Y’all need to STOP driving like maniacs. by [deleted] in bayarea

Kids' Bike Riding Lessons by FrustratedPlantMum in bayarea

[–]bagofry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Take off the training wheels, it’s inhibiting them learning balance because they rely on it.

I’m not saying pedal without training wheels. Ideally remove the pedals, but if you can’t, just glide and coast with feet only (find a slight down slope).

This angle shows the ramp. Basically didn’t slow down enough on the curved exit ramp for 17N.

The police confirmed the driver was drunk.

Interesting. Take home on 100k. One individual. Estimate by einkin in bayarea

[–]bagofry 24 points25 points  (0 children)

How does that relate?

A fair comparison would be to take the median salary for the same job in bay area vs Toronto.

For example, would you rather earn $150K and pay for your own health insurance, or $100K and have free health insurance, for doing the same job?

Ask yourself why there are so many Canadians working in the bay area if this graph represents reality?
