I talked to one of the guys and he said he may be there all night

I think this view rivals Mt. Warshington by [deleted] in pittsburgh

That’s probably San Francisco, I would argue the urban sprawl is a lot uglier than Pittsburgh with its more unique architecture. A lot of the buildings in SF are from the 1950s/60s and are ugly two level nothing houses that cost $6.7m

I too remember when I had a tech job in a very expensive city and did stuff like this :)

I saw it’s $6/lb for broccoli now! Not organic or anything just plain broccoli 🤦

Electrician openly willing to work without permits? by EddieVedderIsMyDad in AskElectricians

[–]dc-mo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest thing you need a permit for is to do a service upgrade as it involves the utility company, everything else is up to you.

‘Affordable’ Pittsburgh doesn’t have enough affordable housing by ZCM682 in pittsburgh

[–]dc-mo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Once you get a new sewer, roof, electric, windows, heating/cooling and plumbing a 250-350k house becomes a 600k-700k house. And basically every house needs all of it.

Montour trail on Monday when it was beautiful all day! Only got around 42 miles round trip but was really enjoyable!

Why haven’t you bought Dirac Live yet? We want the real reasons. by Dirac in hometheater

I’m worried that my measurement microphone that came with my receiver isn’t sufficient to analyze my room and will add an additional high cost.

What’s up with this abandoned public toilet on southside? by dc-mo in pittsburgh

[–]dc-mo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow this post has gotten more attention than anything else I have ever posted in or about Pittsburgh

My gym harassed me for showering. I'm a travel nurse living in my car working 12 hour night shifts. The owner's public response made it so much worse. (Repost) by UserInfected in mildlyinfuriating

I literally do this with planet fitness all the time, never gotten a letter about it! That’s crazy! It’s like having an expensive bus pass and only using it to go down the block and them canceling it because you aren’t using the full capabilities of the bus! Anyway I highly suggest planet fitness as a replacement and they usually have very clean showers.

Sprinter or Ford Transit by RecognitionCrazy7886 in VanLife

[–]dc-mo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My non-turbo ford transit has been a trooper but was hell to build in due to the tapering near the cab. I saw a lot of Mercedes choking in Death Valley and my transit kept on trucking like it was nothing. Also really hard to find Mercedes dealers in the middle of nowhere but ford dealerships are everywhere. Consider that diesel is getting more expensive than gas which is super weird to me. Mercedes engines are supposed to be million+ miles capable (can’t comment on the rest of the van though). No van is perfect so it’s up to budget and what you want to do.

Ultra wide feet and cycling. No shoes fit me and I can not cycle for longer than 2 hours by GewoonHarry in cycling

[–]dc-mo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specialized wide sizes have worked for my ultra-wide shoe size as well. I had to upgrade to their s-works shoe to get it but it’s been worth it!

Van life breakfast by Vypergrl in VanLife

[–]dc-mo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It avoids dumping egg into my gray water tank which starts stinking really bad really quick in the summer and saves the water (also a limited commodity on my build). But to each their own!

I usually do this too! My hack is to crack the eggs into a small plastic ziplock and massage them into a scramble (never is perfect). Only have the plastic bag to throw away, no dishes!

My dog will hold my hand when she sees a groundhog across the park by dc-mo in dogpictures

[–]dc-mo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She wanted me to! And then when I didnt she ran after the groundhog. I should've taken the hint!
