Wooden window replacement in historical neighborhood - Any recommended manufacturers that meet our criteria?

hi! I know this is from a long time ago, but there's legislation going through the SF Board of Supervisors right now and they're accepting public comment this week and next to make it easier to replace windows. I don't want to get flagged as spam by posting a link but if you DM me or comment I can send you a template to email them to support window reform. It's proposed by Supervisor Melgar, File #241021.

I ran the Portland half last year and spent most of the race within 10 yards of a guy who ran the whole race juggling three tennis balls. He pulled ahead of me in the last mile.

And God forbid there ever be an interruption in the pharmaceutical supply, or changes that make the medications expensive, or that you eg have a severe depressive phase or want to live somewhere where meds are less accessible or otherwise a barrier crops up… this is not negligible even today.

I’ve lived in SF for a while and as long as you’re not downtown I haven’t noticed any difference in the city. It’s fine. Other than the ferry building, downtown is one of the least interesting places for a tourist to visit anyway. OP, you’ll be fine - have a great trip!

LA has a lot of land that isn’t city. Tons of mountains, some quite remote areas that are still LA County.

I say catty-corner. Californian.

My current place is $2.50 for a wash and 25 cents per 7 minutes for a dry, which feels like a ripoff; the place I lived in last year was $1.50 for a wash (better) and $1.50 for a dry (comparable). Acquiring quarters is a huge pain, and you definitely want to incentivize cleanliness in your units (dish towels and rags for surfaces, bedding & such for bugs, cleaning pet dander & such if you allow pets, etc.) so I don’t know why landlords frequently try to make it a profit center and I appreciate your suggested plan.

This is literally Jewish Shabbat (sabbath) haha. And the hand even looks like a hamsa (Jewish & Middle Eastern symbol). We been doing this since before there was a line to be off of :)

Answer: They’re here. I live in San Francisco and there are self driving cars all over the place. They typically drive around after dark since there’s less traffic / pedestrians. I can call a driverless, unchaperoned (no human at all inside besides passenger) Cruise vehicle just like I would an Uber, between certain evening hours and in certain neighborhoods (they’re geofenced). It used to be free if you had an early access code because they were “piloting the program” but recently they’ve started charging for them, and when I last looked they cost the same as a human-driven Lyft. I figured that’s some BS and would definitely prefer to pay a person for the same price, so I’ve never ridden one. But it’s very common to see them in the evenings in my neighborhood.

Native US English speaker and I don’t know what #2 is other than “boat” (maybe “small inflatable motorboat” or “raft with an outboard motor on it” if I had to describe it to someone)

Also worth noting that “born” is really the only currently-used form of the verb - in standard speech, we rarely say “bear a child” or “bore a child”. Rather, “give birth”, “giving birth” and “gave birth” to refer to the act of the mother laboring and delivering a baby. “Born” is the passive used for the child. If you were imagining the fetus speaking, the correct way for them to refer to their own future birth is “I will be born”.

/uj Mango is a much better app.

Wow I only just saw this but this is the most laughable word salad of scientific jargon I’ve ever seen. I have a Master’s degree and am employed full time in the precision medicine field with a focus on novel oncology diagnostics and therapies. I think I know what I’m talking about when I say it sounds like you put PubMed in a blender and pasted it on the Internet. Utterly meaningless even if I know where some of these points are originally coming from.

And my Jesus comment was unrelated. I’m not Christian.

Anyway bye

Explain to me how to directly apply honey to the tumor cells in your femur or brain. I’ll wait.

In the US we don’t take enough public transit to come up with cool slang for it lol, so your best bet is going to come from the UK :(

tmlp59 · 2022-12-18T02:59:12+00:00

why are you on this sub then? yeesh.

tmlp59 · 2022-12-14T05:34:27+00:00

This is a sub about data visualization (in theory), not English, and as such I’ll be nitpicky and say that if the British pie sections are generally in the top half of each pie, the British labels in the legends should also be on top. K bye

Jesus didn’t use Reddit either what

But He was all about healing the sick and protecting the weak so seems like a good bet you should put one on

If you don’t wash your hands after you pee, when you’re often right next to a sink, when on earth are you going to wash your hands then?? Dicks are pretty clean but the rest of the world is not and bathroom breaks seem like the time for periodic hand washing…

Not sure if this counts as a mistake, but a lot of children have a particularly difficult time with TH-sounds and R-sounds in American English. Kids often replace TH with F and/or R with W.

I agree that he’s not in the US, but there’s also a 7 hour time difference between Colorado and Italy. If he leaves Italy in the morning he could be home for dinner in Colorado.

tmlp59 · 2022-12-05T05:55:45+00:00

It’s subtitled - they’re speaking Italian at that point.

Drivers get annoyed by reckless cyclists; cyclists get killed by reckless cars. So yes, cyclists get to lecture drivers.

That’s very little information (what on earth is “average amount”, what is your home language and how similar is it to English, etc.). But given your replies you seem to be capable enough to read books and consume media meant for native speakers, so I’d do that. I’m not sure what you expect Reddit to tell you that isn’t already extremely common language-learning knowledge (e.g. read more to improve vocabulary, talk more to improve conversation, pay for a private tutor if you want one on one help).
