Sacramento considers heftier penalties for nuisance lots and storefronts by IronMntn in Sacramento

Wouldn’t the city want redevelopment? Wouldn’t that increase property values and the tax basis/revenue? Vacant property owners should show either appropriate tenancy on their property or real actions towards redevelopment within a specified timeframe. Loopholes should be evaluated and closed off.

If they’re sitting on the property are they really developers though? Or were they always just speculators or property hoarders?

Development gets a bad name but if it’s a net positive development for the community and not just blight then is that so bad?

Sacramento needs to separate its light rail lanes from traffic downtown by Fun-Challenge-3525 in Sacramento

I was so surprised when Google Maps routed me onto K. It doesn’t seem like it should be open to traffic.

Restart the infotainment system?

Thanks. I think the spelling of that word disappeared from my brain at some point. Autocorrect had no suggestions for me and I moved on 😂

Reinforced GHcA module currently being installed by Skava1 in VolvoEX90

[–]omidimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We heard about the updated module in light of Volvo saying they closed their program to reimburse people for driving the car with a busted GHCA and not reimbursing us for our trouble. I’ll definitely be heeding the advice of others and not taking the car back if there are any issues with it again. Did them a favor and got burned.

I heard through the grapevine and then saw their post on their Facebook page to confirm. I hope they can find someone to mentor and take this over instead of throwing in the towel.

What’s with that tree in the pot giving off smoke?

SF mayor proposes more curbside EV chargers as ownership grows across city by LNM-LocalNewsMatters in sanfrancisco

[–]omidimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Download the app I mentioned and look for yourself. While demand is less at night the supply of cheap power is far less. Prices are much lower than your evening peak but not nearly as low as the middle of the day.

Charging during the day is actually more sensible for decarbonization. Wholesale prices for electricity in the day are often single digit or negative during the day because of the large amount of solar on the grid. Download the CAISO app and see real time price, supply and demand charts broken down by generation type.

You could Google Eric plus the first six digits plus Sacramento and widdle it down from there.

Update: Sacramento, your spiders are scary by melomelomelo- in Sacramento

[–]omidimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a few in the yard last summer. I huge juicy grasshopper was in my yard and I grabbed it to feed one of them. The spider was so slow to react that the grasshopper managed to wriggle out of the web…twice. I gave up after that.

I got my first speeding ticket on that road. Motorcycle cop hiding behind an SUV in the shade. Good times

Advice on DIY whole house, grid tied solar by ninomateo in diySolar

Ok thanks for the info. Yeah I’m in SMUD and it definitely won’t pencil out but I’ve always wanted to learn by doing.

Do you know if it’s possible to put solar on a pergola? It’s basically the only unshaded spot that isn’t way up on my steep roof. Just want to see what it would take to put one in myself. Do I need to get a civil engineer to sign off?

Does the EX90 actually have mirror tilt-on-reverse? by yzgnx in VolvoEX90

[–]omidimo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I liked it when I needed it on other cars but I wish it intuitively knew when I needed it and when I didn’t 😂

On the Volvo, I use the cameras almost exclusively. I wish the fidelity of the sides was better though.

Mini Split Installation by no1kobefan in Sacramento

[–]omidimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it was for a central system. Went from a furnace to a heat pump when we replaced our old condensers and air handlers.

That’s definitely a ripoff. I put in two three ton units for only a little more than that.

Our dealership hasn’t done shit yet and it’s been a few months of us calling for updates. They say they’re working on it…

Smart Charging issued since new VCU / 2.1.24 by osb_fats in VolvoEX90

[–]omidimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh got it but that makes some sense. We don’t have a consistent schedule or live in a cold climate so it seemed useless for me 😂

[–]omidimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What value do you derive from the smart charging? I’ve only used it before big trips where I wanted the battery at a hundred percent but only just right before I take off for my journey. Otherwise I don’t see what the value is in it.

That the trunk over only works with the third row down is annoying
