Very sorry to hear what happened you friend. Thanks for doing what you're doing. I would list on Bring-a-trailer.
Thing is super nice - a quick search on classiccars.com makes it look like it...
Anyone know where I can get a larger size container of snowmelt in N. Lake / Truckee? Reno? Looking for something like a 55-g drum. My driveway is a bit of a hassle.
Thanks dude!!!
Has anybody A/B'd the same ON3P with the 50/50 layup vs. Stock layup? Like, what's the general difference in flex profile / turn engagement? Figuring it might only be Iggy who knows the diff.
Did...
I definitely want a Homewood chair!

That's really good to hear. Congrats!
I would say hydronic heat pump space heating is going to come out slightly more expensive. A good price, in Tahoe for the 'standard' system types might...
On real estate, especially in the mountains, I tend to agree. There is no inventory, and making loans harder won't magically create inventory. Since 2008, we never started building at pre-crash...
I firmly believe that mechanical storage is part of the solution. Examples include: pumped hydroelectric (your idea,) compressed air energy storage, flywheels, and ideas like - cranes lifting up...

LOL. Sloan makes something sort of like this. Powers the sensor that turns on the faucet.

I see that more as a menu of options, and Truckee would love to hear residents' recommendations.
I'm not sure that's true. There are different interpretations of that concept.
That's a...
Here's the order of operations in other communities that are ahead of Truckee...and what i would expect to happen locally:
-Year 1, new construction - require all new construction to be...
Depends on the circumstance. I would personally tend to push the costs towards the one with more means in the tenant/landlord relationship. This is typically the one with the feudalistic title. For...
Agree. Huge problem and renters are not well-represented during development or during policy meetings. I was a renter with an EV (Fiat 500e) in a somewhat urban area (OB, San Diego) for 5 years. My...
TGR is always a great resource for up-to-date fire info. Here's to hoping for some luck this week. In hopes of reducing weeks like this in the 2030s/2040s, consider the following (cross-post from...
Dang - Old Goat is an OG! Agree. Wood as backup heat in rural areas is just sound climate accounting - and I can't see a world where that is disallowed. However, I think a lot of construction going...
Truckee is having a meeting this Thursday at the Rec Center from 5-7pm. The Town looking for community feedback on whether all new construction should be fossil fuel free. Get out there! Moreover, if...
We are behind...by a lot. When you throw a hail mary, you don't aim for where the receiver is, but where you want them to be. When you catch a hail mary, you don't wait for the ball to be in the air...
And SDG&E. Honestly, there is no way to get to where we need to be with our current dance partners. Dead end.
No need to start with ratepayer dollars, use the retired PG&E dividends. Use Patti...
Our lessons from COVID, school shootings, and 9/11 are that property loss - not loss of life - are the only thing that can spur sweeping change.
They have us a bit cornered. With wages stagnating...
Ah...looking pretty dang warm around here. Bump

Gotta say, no masks on gondolas and trams seems like an unnecessarily risky policy. That's the kind of move that gets skiing shut down again.
News Flash! They want you to talk about nuclear that you will never implement.
Electrify your fucking homes for the love of ULLR...and your whips if you can find a way to afford it. As of roughly...
This is the best two paragraph summary promoting nuclear that I have ever read or heard :yourock:
Let's flip the convo for a bit. I'm of the opinion that the people on this forum love our natural spaces as much as just about anyone, but have done close to nothing since realizing there is a...
Thanks for the response! All solid comments.
It's for a more tangible point of comparison, rooted locally.
We usually talk in dollar per metric ton of carbon emissions. That can be dollars per...
Tahoe or other fire-risk mags, how much have you spent on defensible space? Would be useful for me to make as a comparison to the cost of electrification.
Different movie, similar death:

Nice post!!!
Does anyone remember the year when someone lost a ski on a cliff-band and had to retrieve by looping the binding with their pole-strap? Any idea on year?
Curious - rather than arguing - what's your proposed non-fossil-fuel alternative? Electric resistance, tank-type? Even given the additional heating demand in the winter from a heat pump water heater...
Gonna start with a very loud, THIS IS NOT TRUE! Just in case the casual reader doesn't return.
Hey man, where do you live? There are cold-climate heat pumps, and there are standard ones.

Gerritkwood has it going on. Here's a visual representation using a Sankey Diagram and average infra/system efficiencies in the US.

Point is heat pumps are just crazy efficient. They're...
Hmm, I kind of doubt it. How do you own watt-hours or joules or solar for that matter?
Wow, this is so demonstrably untrue in so many ways. Impressive to see so much uneducated horseshit into...
If you care about climate change, make your home all-electric. It saves just as much carbon as electrifying your vehicle...more in the high country...and is cheaper (especially if you have AC.)

A moratorium is the right approach and a starting point. I got pretty deep into the weeds on this topic when I was in Ocean Beach, San Diego. Held an elected position representing my community on...
news from??
Wanted to give an update in case anyone just got a pilon and is reading this depressing-thread. This thread literally gave me nightmares.
I know things will get worse and arthritis will kick in,...
Ummm...yes, you did make that up.
Recovered cases = 116,549
Deaths = 9,146
Total cases resolved = 116,549 + 9,146 = 125,695
Mortality rate = 9,146/125,695 = 7.2%
One in thirteen people who...

Congrats on the upcoming kiddo! Good intel overall.
Glad to hear I was over-exaggerating with the "about to crumble" statement. I do get the feeling that your hospital is reasonably prepared to...
Great post. I want to note that I think we can do almost anything we want with the right protocols. Maybe we should start a thread just asking maggots what protocols should be implemented?
...
God, everyone has taken this little tidbit and run with it, eh? Science has shown that for decades. If you didn't know that in before 2020, you must've started going to bars after they banned...
^ha. This!
^Thanks PET! What I should have said, but forgot, is: "I hope you are all doing well and wish you many days without pain." Seriously, for all the people on this thread...I'm thinking of ya.

Well, this thread is depressing AF. Got a couple questions if anyone is still reading this:
Any positive stores 1-10 years out? Running isn't important, but snowboarding, hiking, walking, biking,...
Jackson heads, be careful. Small outbreak happening there.
This isn't actually question for a doctor. They generally deal with you after you've been infected. Minimizing transmission of...
