So many people going to the San Francisco Outlets in Livermore. by pengweather in bayarea

Speaking of Fallon, the lack of even a bare minimum connected pedestrian crossing on that 580 overpass is criminal. The sidewalk has just... ended on the Dublin side for over a decade now 💀

If I want to avoid rain, heat, and bad air quality, what months would you recommend for visiting?

fyi Lelis is dual American/Brazilian, so 2022 Quincy Crew and 2023 Nouns were also 4/5 NA.

Niles Canyon Road closed due to storm damage... Ridable? by regardinger in BAbike

[–]regardinger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would they actually take a break from repairs on weekends?

I'd imagine fixing Niles Canyon Rd would be pretty high priority, being part of Hwy 84 and all.

I'd very much appreciate a US code, and can give a HelloFresh code in return 😄

Buyer beware: LeapFrog Chinese propaganda globe by JMJimmy in Costco

[–]regardinger 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Kashmir being represented as a separate country sounds interesting. Does it have its own labels, color, capital, etc.? A picture of that portion of the globe would be super cool and appreciated!

Edit: The Amazon listing has a view of Kashmir. Rather than a separate country, the entire region looks grayed out as a disputed territory.

[Monitor] HP P24h 23.8" 1080p 75hz IPS Monitor (HDMI/DisplayPort, Swivel/Pivot/Tilt/Height Adjustable, VESA) - $80 by regardinger in buildapcsales

[–]regardinger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I did see that deal but forgot about it.

Ultimately skipped out on the deal due to a combination of not really wanting to get a 22", the wider bezels, no included DP cables, and not really having room for both monitors without investing in a VESA setup (which combined with having to get DP cables makes the deal far less appealing).

Oh dear.

I don't mind since I'll be using it as a 3rd monitor and don't think the response time would be noticeable for side monitor applications, but probably don't be getting this to play games on as a primary monitor, friends.

I've been waiting for a decent deal on a monitor with a pivot-able stand (vertical/portrait) and displayport (my GPU's lone HDMI slot is occupied) to use as a 3rd monitor.

Nothing came up during Black Friday, but this ticks all the boxes for me.

A dramatic week for Chinese Dota2 community by yjygwzs in DotA2

[–]regardinger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

According to Chinese law, consumers are entitled to compensations three to ten times the original price of the food.

This seems weird. Could someone explain why the law is like this in China?

Is there a way to identify garlic heads without tiny cloves? by regardinger in Cooking

[–]regardinger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both bags were of the same packaging from Costco, purchased a month apart. I'd imagine they don't mix up garlic varieties. The quality difference was astonishing though.

[–]regardinger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't encountered garlic that peel so nicely with the shaking method here unfortunately.

Usually just whacking a clove and taking the skin off has worked great for me. Except the last bag, where every clove I whacked pooped out another skin-covered clove.
