This. And unplug/replug Cat 6 cables. I live on the thrifty side of life and my cables are down to a price point. Sometimes they need to be reconnected if there is any chance something has physically moved.

How many steelers and penguin starter jackets can I throw on top of my house to stop this madness?

So I don’t have 1Gbps fiber. But I get the 500Mbps I pay for. When it has issues they have fixed them. Performance issues take a bit of persistence. Took a few calls. But they sent guys out and fixed it.

If you have not and can, test the performance hardwired at the router. Lost of thing can get in the way of getting a full gig to a wifi connected device.

for the record and some perspective regarding that chart, $9 is the US historical average. We didn't even touch that with the spike in prices this past year. People are so used to rock bottom energy prices we're complaining about something that's still under the average.

Meanwhile the rest of the world is paying 4-6x what we are. So in that regard we still have it quite good.

grid tied solar + battery bank...no gas bill...half the year you get paid...the other half you pay them and it comes out to be pretty much free electricity for the year

Money to fix the hood or get some tired that arent going on Elmer Fudd bald? Nah.

Money to hop a plane and escape the PA winter gray? Absolutely.

If there wasn't fracking it'd be even higher. Thank Vladmir Putin for invading Ukraine and pushing up natural gas prices worldwide. It's a globally traded commodity, the U.S. has been exporting more to Europe so they're not dependent on Russia.

>U.S. LNG exporters boosted shipments to Europe by more than 137% in the first 11 months of 2022 from the same period in 2021,

Hey speaking of airport parking, did anyone hear a Honda alarm blaring in the long term lot this past week (Jan 16-20)? I got back from a trip to a dead car and as soon as I jumped it, my alarm was blasting. Trying to solve the mystery as to why it died

they dont take old gas

Right after i get my property tax rebate from the casino

Marge: I thought you said the law was powerless.
Chief Wiggum: Yeah, powerless to help you, not punish you.

Dehydration is no joke. Couple of weeks ago, I woke up feeling dizzy and generally not well. Went back to bed and woke up still not feeling great. Finally realized that I hadn’t drank water in a couple days. A friend mentioned that her hot yoga teacher said we feel less thirsty in the winter and have to force ourselves to drink - made total sense. A good trick to keep track of how much you’re drinking is to use a water bottle and decide how many you want to drink per day. Put that number of rubber bands around the neck and remove one each time you finish a bottle. You won’t have to worry about forgetting how many bottles you’ve drank.

Budget plan takes the edge off.

Well-known state where you get a return on your taxes, West Virginia

This is the most infuriating shit. We were promised 10-12 years ago that we'd have nearly free heating gas forever if we just let these companies fuck up our water and air. Now they're selling it all to Shell or compressing it and sending it overseas, and we get the awesome cancer risk with no upsides.

 
They promised us a bunch of good-paying jobs and they all went to road warriors from Texas and Oklahoma.

 
They promised landowners that they'd get lucrative lease agreements and they spun off their pipeline operations and charged themselves fees that they could take out of leaseholder payments.
 
I don't know how many times extractive industries have to shit on us before we figure out that they're all snakes, now and forever.

Where’s the JetBlue employee?

Similar situation, and my bill is $328. Still hurts and is about double what it usually is, but given the extreme low temperatures not surprised.

Or alternatively, just drink some water but don’t turn it in to your identity.

I'll park right at the exit gate.

You are smart. The shuttle guy is part of the same company and will call the right person . Helping hand award.

Edit- you tried. Call Olivia next.

There's no rules!!

Oh cool! I’ll park in the middle of the road next time. Checkmate, airport parking.

If it makes you feel any better we moved from Maine before winter. Based on our rate of consumption and the price of heating oil our heating bill would have been around $4000 for the winter.

Shale swells are still producing. The Russian gas has basically been taken off the market. Supply disruption = price hikes.
