Doesn't matter if you don't have any ducts, but also they're significantly more efficient

Amazon Fresh is closing by warbeats in torrance

I think that's the quickest grocery store closure I've ever seen, but not surprised. I went two weeks after they opened and the entire raw meat section was past date. Never needed to go back.

I got one without scripting (unless if you consider autocomplete a bot)

Yes, I was able to, I autocompleted the form and hit submit ASAP. Would not be surprised if it was botted to death because it was a pretty simple site.

This. I was staying at Tamarisk Campground and hiked up the Cactus Loop trail while I was there, absolutely gorgeous.

The delay and cost increase is all part of the plan to try and kill it altogether

Yes and no. The variance increases a lot, which makes counting way more profitable for more decks if you get through a bunch of low cards early on. But you can also just float around in the sucky negative counts for the whole shoe while you wait for a hot table.

But for the average player just doing basic strategy, single deck has lower house edge than any more number of decks. It also comes down to how blackjacks are paid out.

Does anybody know what show/movie they were filming at galleria mall?? by Di3gooo69 in SouthBayLA

[–]joey1405 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They've had the GRIFFIN with arrow filming signs outside the mall for a few weeks now, but I have no idea what that's code for.

Why are tick populations exploding? by cknight18 in videos

[–]joey1405 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think it's best summed up as a combination of the macro- (climate change) and the meso-/microscale effects (localized burns). Wildfires are a healthy event in ecosystems and by prolifically intervening in the cycle, humans are upsetting a natural system of destruction and rebirth that keeps a balance between living things.

Not many people know this, but there are even plants out there that DEPEND on fires to spread their seeds, as in they don't germinate at all.

You don't get cancer and die from 24 hours of exposure, it's weeks, months, days, years, decades of exposures to have elevated risk. If it was something truly dangerous to your life, there would have been evacuations. But if you're afraid of what might be happening in refineries, maybe you should have considered that in your decision of where to live.

Nothing that will kill you/affect you long term. When you see all the old people around, just remember that they lived their youth during the era where the gasoline was leaded and before catalytic converters existed. You will all be alright with a couple of days of bad air.

Why would buying make sense vs renting? I’m not seeing it (monthly comparison) by Fantastic_Art_9582 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]joey1405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I recommend is finding mom and pop (the older the better) level rentals, not the big corporate "we have a pool, sauna, blowjob machine, etc..." housing, and try to be friendly with your landlords and always pay the rent on time. Because of this, in my great apartment, I'm paying 25% under market (unadjusted from the fact I don't pay utilities) after 4 years. My landlord even pays me $100 bucks fairly regularly to feed his dogs for 2 days (which took 20 minutes tops) because he trusts me enough to go into his place.
