The expansion of it?

Police and Fire scanner (m.broadcastify.com)

Just thought to put the URL out there for those unaware. Useful in cases like yesterday on Cap Hill, there was a police helicopter circling a block for half an hour or more. The news didn't cover this. Listening to it explained the situation (armed robbery).

The no gas station visits part is what excites me the most actually haha

Firstly, yeah it's the charging experience. I read about those adapters just today. Wasn't sure which cars support it, sounds like a lot do.

Secondly, I have some hesitation buying from Tesla given their track record of handling personal data and general customer service practices incidents. So was wondering what's the experience like with other manufacturers with the public infrastructure.

I hope that makes sense

Trying to figure out leasing/buying an EV with a place that has lvl 2 charging. Heard anecdotes that are mostly negative. How's your experience been?

Right, it's just that in the pamphlet the opposition to renewing the levy claim that the renewal would make the roads/sidewalks/bridges worse

Hold on to your wallets, Seattle. As civic leaders free from politics, we urge neighbors to vote No on this terrible transportation tax. Why should you pay the largest tax in city history, when it leaves bridges, streets, and sidewalks in dangerous disrepair while worsening traffic congestion?

Let me know if this is against the rules, if so I'll remove the post.

I read in the voter pamphlet the proponents take and opponents take on the renewal, but something didn't add up. Opponents mentioned that this levy would make our sidewalks, roads and bridges worse, but in the budget allocation there's funds for fixing sidewalks roads and bridges.

What am I missing here?

Didn't know it was cheap

I wish I could pinpoint where it came from. If it was my immediate neighbor I'd ask if it's ok to extinguish it at some point at night.

Could also be from improper use of the fireplace, who knows

Is electric heating not common? Trying to cool my apt but all the smoke comes in

I do appreciated that this truck can actually be used as a truck (as opposed to the modern ones).

The only reason I posted this is just because of the parking spot, it was just funny to see "compact" and ⅓ of it sticking out blocking the passage behind it.

Looks like uBlock Origin Zap Mode works. I just never realized you can do that on mobile (on Fennec, basically Firefox). Thanks for reminding me of that!

Komonews now apparently does this crap where it needs to "process" your cookie opt-out, at least on mobile.

Any alternative news sources you'd recommend to follow? Just for stuff like weather or big events.

If you're unfamiliar with this tactic, when you click "opt-out" the webpage basically displays this widget with a loading bar saying it needs to "process" your request. When in reality you're asking them to simply not use cookies, so it's saving the web browser time by not installing any cookies.

Any recommendations on tracking road closures and big events in SODO to avoid traffic?
