Connect pump to body of water. Pump up when electricity is cheap. Let water run thru turbine when electricity is expensive.
Tell your friends or family that you want to see a nice dentist and wait for recommendations. Getting a personal recommendation is going to help you feel comfortable going.
You can always look for a dentist that advertises they work with kids. Chances are if they can calm screaming toddlers they can put your concerns to rest too.
Two more insurers are pulling out of California’s troubled homeowners insurance market, straining a marketplace that already has seen the pullback of several other companies that have cited increase costs related to wildfire risks....
I have yet to see any evidence that any of these coverage denials are related to being in any sort of higher risk area. We're not talking about houses in the forest, or on coastal bluffs, or next to the beach, etc. That's just a smoke screen to cover their incentives to put out news stories like this so they can pressure regulators to allow them to charge more for insurance.
All of the articles speculate climate change is a factor, and I think that's one of the things that the insurers quoted in the initial news. However, there was no evidence that was the case.
If true, wtf. You'd think the genocide joe moniker was something to be careful of. Or I guess he can just embrace it and bend the knee to a country that's a small percentage of the US' size, gdp, and political influence.

Over the past year or so I’ve been playing with the idea of a decentralised social platform based on your location. By putting physical location at the centre of the experience, such a platform could be used to bring communities together and provide a source of local information when travelling. Please let me know what you...
Build it yourself. Stash several mini computers connected to Lora radios around town. Connect to form a mesh all focused on the same fediverse page. Connect wifi hotspots to those servers, connecting phones to the hosted page, not to the internet.
You'd get a localized community site that by design can't be infiltrated by people from across the country hating on you (e.g., San Francisco and Texas).
No idea on feasibility or how much work, but seems to address your question at least.
