Unless you’re in California, where the second highest utility rates in the US exists and solar benefits are being capped by the state.

13% utility increase next year, a 95% increase in utility costs since 2014!

Similarly, my YouTube shorts are filled with gambling videos and “get rich quick scheme” videos. Seems as though “do not recommend channel” blocks the channel but assumes you have some growing interest in the topic.

I just want to watch woodworking shorts and plumbing videos T_T

Politics was my first blocked community on Lemmy. Then every other US politics community that has sprung up. They’re either echo chambers or flame wars and it’s irritating to use the internet as an escapism and run into arguments daily.

Seems to be intermittent.

Yeah, it’s killing me slowly. I can’t afford solar, I keep my AC at 78 during the day when I’m home and off entirely overnight, I never turn lights on in the house, and I cook only with natural gas or charcoal and I’m still facing $400/mo from May to October.

I hit the “peak billing rate” for PG&E on the third day of the billing cycle each month and they say I just need to fork over cash for solar or reduce my energy further.

I just need a few more years off on my mortgage and I’m going to have to sell and move back to the Southeast, I guess.

I’m dying with the lack of baseball communication. The biggest Baseball and Atlanta Braves communities are pretty much dead and I really miss talking ball.

Not a great tip; as managers, we can see the activity of direct reports, and being in long meetings with no attendees is a dead giveaway.
