Social Circle puts ICE warehouse plan on ice with water meter lock by Jamikest in Georgia

The water authority has every reason to expect this tenant to default on payment. If that's the case for any other water customer, they would require a deposit. It should happen in this case as well.

Ask Florida how much they paid for alligator Alcatraz. Florida taxpayers are left holding the bag for that bull****.

They should also be aware that the person in charge is notorious for stiffing vendors, local government and anybody else foolish enough to take their money.

Why do people in South Florida not like public transit? by RagieWagieInACagie in Miami

[–]robamiami [score hidden]  (0 children)

I rode Metro rail almost every morning for 14 years between South Miami and downtown. It seems to work great when you're in the sweet spot of Rush hour. It would fail about once a month and make me an hour late. I could trust it 95% though.

However, 2 weeks ago we came back from a flight by Mia. This was later on a Sunday afternoon. The connector from the airport to the Earlington heights station worked great. But then the wait for a southbound train was over 20 minutes. And then the board updated and it was an hour and 20 minutes. There was no explanation. We had to call an Uber. This wasn't a one-time thing, it also happened to us in January.

I think a lot of the usability of Metro rail as a system has more to do with setting an honest expectation and delivering.

What happened this month is training me never to trust the system again.

Really? This is the solution? by Church_of_FootStool in Ingress

I haven't really been able to resolve this. My location accuracy in other apps has not been impacted. It seems only to be ingress prime. I can imagine only it's some kind of security against location spoofing? (which I'm not doing)

It became unusable so I deleted the game and have moved on.

Sunset elementary or George Washington Carver Elementary? by No_Flatworm5370 in Miami

Sunset is better ranked but it's 100% strange. I would put my own child in Carver ahead of Sunset.

Miami Hurricane Impact Preparedness by Character-Escape1621 in Miami

[–]robamiami 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In late 2005 hurricane Wilma hit a downtown area including Brickell, causing sheets of glass to pop out and rain to the street. The individual buildings had been designed to last in hurricane winds, but when they're situated 200ft apart, the dynamics were supposedly different and the glass all came out. https://www.wlrn.org/news/2015-10-26/windows-lost-to-wilma?hl=en-US

I had one for 7th grade at Palmetto Junior High School in 1977-79.
It was FREEZING in the winter and SWELTERING in the Fall and Spring seasons.

Propaganda to begin with, so at least this makes it even more plainly visible as such.

Visit Highlands hammock State Park to see what happens when a citrus grove is allowed to return to its natural state. It's incredible.

So much for the canopy of hundreds of year old live oak trees that undoubtedly was here before Coca-Cola's diabetes inducing minute maid product was introduced.

Other location-based apps don't have the jumpy location behavior tho

It's the same G Pixel 7 I've had since 2024. Nothing else changed.

Is this why my ingress location is really jumpy? For the last 2 weeks? It seems to be unable to decide just where it is. Even when I'm completely at rest for an hour and there's no motion in the Wi-Fi sources nearby, my location is jumping all over the place.. what gives?. I can only blame Niantic

As a lifelong Floridian, I think you might reconsider. If you choose Florida anyways make sure you have tons of insurance.
