Well they all have defensible space around their homes. It is a requirement for the only fire insurance they can get. Even the defensible space does not clear enough to get uninterrupted Starlink service.

This is largest hurdle I've seen for Starlink. I know at least 10 people in the foothills of Northern CA that are stuck with 2 choices if they want Starlink. They can either cut down several massive (100ft+) trees or they can pay som

I would totally agree. So many of them just seem to be on a power trip and moderate based on their mood. Its sad because its really killed reddit for a lot of people.

Ya I would agree the stats are probably biased based on the US border vs Canada's. However at the same time it would not be difficult to travel from the southern US border to the US-Canada border. I would wager its easier than making

Do you happen to any stats to support that? I took a quick look. Canada seems to accept around 430k legal immigrants and had another 30-40k illegal crossing in 2022. The US seems to have admitted 1 million between July 2021 and July 2022 s

I would wage a hefty sum the vast majority (>90%) are beyond thrilled to be coming to the US. They are willing and WANT to come. You make it sounds like they are being captured and transported on slave ships.

Do you think that is good for our society/economy? In my experience pretty much anyone can be bad at a given job. Your race gender or ethnicity do not play a part in it. Should people who are not bad at their job be fired because they

Most people seem to forget LA has a ton of oil wells (see quote below for the numbers). They are typically pretty well disguised so people don't notice it a lot. Last year LA finally decided to stop allowing new wells and start phasi

Do you happen to have a source on that? The last one I found that was actually linked to domestic terrorism was Feb 2022. As far as I can find, the more recent ones have not been. In fact the police had to make a release saying the media

Ya I have a hard time believing something like this could be covered up in the case it was a hack. Way to many people are directly interacting with the issue across tons of agencies. However our critical infrastructure needs to be secured

Yup this is a huge problem in CA. We simply have not been able to get any new meaningful reservoir projects done. Take a look at the Sites Reservoir. It is probably the closest to actually doing something. https://sitesproject

Ya the other article I linked seems to imply there is movement on the Sites Reservoir project. In fact the article makes its seem like it is in the final planning stages. Note that the Sites location was first talked about in the 1950s so

Here is a more recent article that talks about a new reservoir in CA. Its quoted saying the new proposed one will add up to 15% of CA's total water storage. That is a far cry from the 1% the mercury news quotes. Both articles refere

Again you are moving the goal posts. I will break it down for you. The original poster said 'most expensive' not the 'most expensive on a per-sq-ft basis'. You are arbitrarily adding the words on a per-sq-ft basis beca

You have evidence of that claim? I took a look around me. The most expensive and highest demand areas are actually not transit accessible at all and walking is not really feasible as the houses have lots of land and are very spread out. I

Not the person you responded to originally. When you bring up Trump and Biden and globalization I see a pretty big difference. On one hand Trump basically never stopped running his mouth about it. He would take action then tell everyone

I feel like this idea of no need for responsibility is a massive trend in the US here and imo it needs to stop. You are completely blaming the us here when in fact the responsibility of this is on the parents. If the law had changed then
