It rains quite a bit in winter, especially November through January. But lightning is very rare.

Try a hiking loop in the Oakland hills parking at Redwood Bowl. The redwood canopy preserves a pleasant climate. It’s a popular spot but not bad like you’re describing. Yes you need to wear a mask much of the time, but you can get a comfort

I’ve never seen one of these but my old neighbors from backwoods Minnesota raved about them. In addition to the vast reduction in blast radius from a fire, apparently the outdoor furnaces are large enough to fit big old logs without needing

Parent did say “sell / buy” (perhaps they ninja edited). A limit buy order is a basic tool of retail investors (like me :) ) and may have been what parent was thinking of. That said, I don’t agree with parent or great grandparent that

Regarding SF rent control: this commenter sounds like they know what they're talking about and say that landlords in SF cannot beat rent control with temporary free rent offers: https://socketsite.com/archives/2020

I think you mean rent control, not prop 13. Anyhow this commenter sounds like they know what they're talking about and are saying that landlords in SF cannot beat rent control in this manner: https://socketsite.com/ar

Take out customers don’t order high-margin beverages in proportion to dine-in customers. In most of the US, restaurants cannot even sell the highest-margin beverages, alcoholic ones, to go. With the lost beverage margin, increased take out
