Do we really have any idea how El Nino is going to effect snowfall for '27,'28 in the Sierras?

I plan to save up to do the PCT in April of '28 NoBo. I am wondering if I should start the PCT later because there might be too much built up snow from the previous year's El Nino. I have also heard to make it to the Sierras by early May for safety reasons, as it the snowmelt is usually over by then. Does that sound correct to you guys? (Also, do we think El Nino is going to bring more water to the desert parts?)

I know its probably a little too early to know what the conditions are going to be like in the next year or so with climate change. I guess I am trying to figure out if going in 2027 might be better than 2028.

TLDR: Does anyone have any guesses about the PCT conditions this next year or so given El Nino? Thanks a plenty!!

The Portofino Tierrasanta HOA has really pissed off one of my neighbors, everyone just received a letter

HOAs are historically comprised of power tripping boomers with too much time (and often money) to burn through- and the Portofino HOA in Tierrasanta is no different.

A couple days ago I saw this letter posted on trees throughout the neighborhood and it captured the frustration I’ve had with the HOA for years. Over half a million to re do fences that don’t need to be redone, cutting down trees that I have personally grown up with, and a 100,000 $ salary to an office manger who is never there! Not to mention our pool was closed for the entirely of this year (2nd time in 5 years btw).

Seeing this letter posted on dozens of neighborhood trees, I thought it was hilarious, so I hit up my friend to go for a walk to look at it together. However, following day everything had been ripped down.

I thought it was bummer that this portofino resident’s 99 thesis or whatever got taken down, but I didn’t except that only 3 days later, the exact same letter posted to the trees was individually placed at the carport gate of each Portofino resident. This pissed off resident must have printed hundreds of these letters! Hell yeah brother/sister/fella!!!

Whoever you are…. You are my hero, I love u, and down with the Portofino HOA and their evil schemes to kill our trees and waste our money💖💖

TDLR: I spend hundreds of dollars each month for an evil HOA and someone is now sending letters to each resident to fight back go T town baby RAAAH 😎

How to get the Samsung Juke out of the power up loop.

Hi guys! Recently I lost my best friend in the world, my 19 year old shitzu, Ella. I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with myself during this time and I though I might try to see if I could power up my juke from 2008 to see if I could find pics of us ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

I first just bought a new charger, but it wouldn’t turn on. Then I bought a new juke battery, and it actually powered on!! but I got this error message on the screen. I turned the phone on and off again and it seems like it’s just stuck on the power up screen. Anyone know how to bypass this?

Thanks!! And if I am able to get the data I’ll come back and post pics of Ella for you guys 🥹💕

What dumbphone brands offer the best security?

I’m trying unrot my brain from all the time I spend on my smart phone. I’ve been looking at the Kazuna, Kyocera, and Orbic Journey phones, but I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which brands they trust the most when it comes to security. I don’t want a phone that has any features like a ‘hey siri’ that is always in the background listening or anything else like that. My ads have been waaaaaaaaay too specific to say the least.

Are there any 4G/5G dumbphones out there that don’t constantly spy on you? Would love know what brands you guys recommend- if any! Otherwise I might just buy a pager and get a landline at this point 🥲🥲 Thank you!!

When was the last time you saw fireflies in Taiwan?

Have you seen any fireflies in recent years? I’ve never seen fireflies here, but I want to try to look! I am thinking about checking around Taibei and Yangminshan? Does Alishan have any? I’ve heard there are less fireflies is recent years, and would love to hear if you’ve ever experienced them. Thank you!!!💖💖
