offtopic, but I love comparing realtor glamour shots HDR'd out the wazoo with StreetView https://maps.app.goo.gl/2aEXsdH9hU3o4SZw5 https://maps.app.goo.gl/2aEX

  Aside to the offtopic: I'm surprised the google street view footage is 13 years old.

    It launched in 2007, so approaching twenty years: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Street_View https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Street_View

      I meant and left out a key word; "most recent". Whoops! I'm used to seeing yearly or every-other-year streetview updates for locations I look at regularly. That said, might be mixing up my broader impression with the interval of satellite photo updates in the google earth history. (but my bay area neighborhood does indeed have streetview history updating every year or so; obviously this is probably on the high end given proximity to tech companies...)

  that's not a glamour shot, that's just a sunny day. the dirty little secret of the southern california coast is it is cloudy more than half the time. west la, downright depressing. they call it "the marine layer", i call it cloudy as fuck.

    Ya that’s completely false lol. Lots of reasons to criticize LA, being cloudy isn’t one of them https://wrcc.dri.edu/cgi-bin/clilcd.pl?ca23174 https://wrcc.dri.edu/cgi-bin/clilcd.pl?ca23174
