Agreed. For one, the map has my zip code wrong. And two, I get very spotty reception at my house and get no reception at the local strip mall but both say I get 100% coverage.

Anecdotally and IMO, I am definitely a mosquito magnet! Always have been and I'm sure I always will be. Not so anecdotally: I get massive reactions from bites that last a long time (sometimes months). For example: In my 20's I onc

I would think so. I've lived right next to the Bay Bridge on 2nd St in SF and the amount of soot on my window sills and just inside my windows was a constant chore to clean up. At one point I found a map that stated I lived in the wors

I've been using both for quite some time now. They work very well together and I don't see myself browsing much without them. edit: remove redundant "together"

Wow, this TMJ connection isn't something I knew about but it seems to make some sense in my case. I've had mild tinnitus for 30+ years that got extremely loud the morning after my second mRNA covid vaccination. But with this new (

For me, putting my finger in my ear only slightly mutes the higher frequencies. I can change pitch a tiny bit by clenching my jaw. But the real big changes in volume and pitch come when I push my tongue onto the roof of my mouth.

Yep, a real photo. Unfortunately, I participated in the making of that sign. It was made at a sign company in Oakland, CA that is owned and operated by Scientologists. As a matter of fact, it was this sign that started my investigation into

Probably getting rid of the alcoholics that they have to deal with on a daily basis. It's not right, but cops are cops.

As someone else pointed out, it's been centuries not decades. And it's not "almost like a long drawn-out genocide," it IS a long drawn-out genocide.

Absolutely! I lost my iPhone 7+ recently and had no idea how attached I was to that phone. Being someone conscious of infosec I had iCloud turned off and what I thought were minimal apps installed. That said, and with the fingerprint reader

Things like language, spiritual practices, and traditional knowledge are lost. It can cause generational trauma, among other things. "Kill the Indian, save the man" - the statement has been attributed to Richard Henry Pratt, an Ar

Don't get me started on Gabapentin! I just got off of it after 11 yrs (serious spinal cord injury - neuropathy). Initially, after my surgery, I was on 12 different drugs (not all related to my injury). Over the last 5 years I've b

I met someone on tribe.net back in the early/mid 00's who I met in person a couple of years later. We dated but it didn't work out (PDX - SFO). Though we are still very good friends about 20 years later.

That's exactly what happened to San Francisco's culture. It started the during the first tech boom when all the artists started leaving for the East Bay and PDX.

Growing up poor in an affluent area, I absolutely felt powerless growing up! Almost all of my peers had cars given to them at 16 by their parents while I didn't get my first car until I could afford to buy one when I was 18.

I should add that my parents bought me my first bike while we lived in SF. The reason they say we moved to Marin when I started second grade was because my parents had nowhere in The City to teach me how to ride it.

When I first moved to San Francisco I walked from 10th & Mission to Bessie Carmichael School at 7th & Folsom then took MUNI to Commodore Stockton Elementary in Chinatown every weekday. That was in first grade in 1972. At the time SO

I know this sounds scary to most, but I was doing local hitchhiking to go fishing, or bring our bikes up Mt Tam, starting at 7-8 yrs old. I walked, rode a bike, or took the bus everywhere else. My parents rarely took me anywhere that didn&#

Agreed. My TV went out 3 days before the Super Bowl. Within an hour of it going out I jumped on Amazon and easily ordered a dumb TV that was delivered before the Super Bowl. Amazon had many options with varying levels of dumbness. I ordered

Both my psychiatrist and therapist are open to the idea. In fact, I'm pretty sure everyone who works in the clinic I go to are open to it. This is in San Francisco though, so YMMV. And since it's not yet legal in CA, I've tho

You are correct. I don't use Mullvad and had assumed this was an audit of their infrastructure, not their app. Thanks for pointing that out.

I initially read this as "Historic Newsguy Funerals." Newsguy was my Usenet provider back in the late 90's and my misreading piqued my interest. The article is actually about city newspaper boys from the early 1900's.
