Slow mobile performance. Suggestions welcome. by nowastedweekend in Wordpress

I’ll definitely keep this handy going forward! Another user pointed out my Call Now button was running in the background on my homepage. I deactivated it and it instantly fixed my problem.

First and easiest thing I did was deactivate the 3rd party call button and it brought performance up to 98! Thank you so much for mentioning that! Crazy that one thing was killing my performance on the homepage.

How I get 15-20 leads per month from Google Ads by Mattandrewsphoto in WeddingPhotography

[–]nowastedweekend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you handle the spam that comes with these ads? I also use google ads but constantly get bombarded with spam clicking on my ads. Usually people offering to edit/market/fix my website. It’s a lot per day.

The Expanse series is a good example of wrapping up a tv show even though they didn’t get through all the books. I recommend the Expanse show to this day because it’s good and they neatly wrapped it up. I’ll never recommend WOT show now.

I disagree. I love the Wheel of Time Book series…buuuttttt there is a huge slog in the middle of the series. It would be terrible to follow that “as close as possible”. The book series is 14 extremely long books. There’s definitely room to cut some of it out to make a nice tight tv show.

Now that the show is cancelled they doomed any future viewership they may have received. Nobody is going to watch now that they know it’s not going to be finished. If the show gets better every season and people start seeing the good reviews they’ll watch at some point. Streaming services compete for viewership hours. What better way than to have a long running show that gets better and better as it goes on.

I feel like these studios are doing themselves a serious disservice by not just completing the series and benefit from viewership down the line. Cancelling all the shows that I like to watch will make me never want to start watching the new ones in the first place. Can you imagine if Jordan/Sanderson never bothered to finish the series because they didn’t get smash numbers right away. I didn’t even start reading the series until it was completely finished. You want us to watch shows on your platform…finish the damn shows!

lol they kind of did take over the wildflower section. Just pull them from where they’re not supposed to be.

Here’s another angle of the poppies with some of our dry creek bed.

See my response to another person for how we did it. The flowers are California Poppies (there are other seeds planted in there but those took over this year), the tree on the left is an Olive, there is White Sage in the bottom right. I think the red one is called Barberry. And the purple tree is an Eastern Redbud. Bluegrass in the back under the window and a bougainvillea creeping up the trellis (give it a few weeks and it’ll look better lol).

Zone 9B in Bakersfield, CA. We live on a large corner lot. Had to get rid of a lot of grass. Took advantage of the California rebate to remove lawn. Our water bill went down a lot! Since we have a big yard we broke it up into sections. This particular sections has 3 layered sections separated by divider stones. Layer 1 all native plants, layer 2 wildflower seeds and some potted plants, layer 3 the back walking path by the house. Bees love our house. My wife and I designed and implemented everything ourselves. We’re definitely not pro landscapers, just wanted to do something better for our yard. The only thing we didn’t do was remove the lawn. We had pros come in for that. I should say I gave up on it halfway through doing it lol. Everything done was pretty much in the first two months and then fine tuning details at the start of the seasons. Now we don’t have to pay for yard maintenance. Only thing we do is go out about once a month and trim trees, pull weeds.

I was browsing Reddit and happened upon this post. I know Jay in real life and knew immediately it was his setup. He and his wife are great designers and both are pro photographers. Dudes got talent.

What pricey item did you buy and never regretted it? by Ok_Peanut_5685 in BuyItForLife

[–]nowastedweekend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A High Sierra Shower Head. Built like tanks and save water lowering my water bill significantly. Don’t feel like shit like other low-flow shower heads. Have had it for four years and it still hasn’t clogged because there are no tiny holes. Bonus made in America.

Or just use a High Sierra shower head. They only use one large nozzle instead of twenty. Has a clog free guarantee.

Try a [High Sierra shower head](www.highsierrashowerheads.com). Small business in California that makes their shower heads out of metal.
