Made it back home from the beach.

@Viss wow. It was $5.50 for diesel. Regular gas is about $3.60 and premium was a bit over $4 (but varies wildly based on station). A lot of places will be switching to summer blend soon so it’s going to get bad.

@Viss ouch

@jerry

we'll all feel diesel prices. makes shipping everything pricier.

[simonzerafa@infosec.exchange]

@Viss @jerry

£ 137.9p for E10 Petrol and £158.9 for Diesel per Litre.

Multiply by 3.78541 to convert to US Gallons

@paul_ipv6 I don’t think we’ve seen the worst yet. But yes, agree. Inflation is about to

@jerry shoot, maybe Trump's going to save the planet after all

[jerry@infosec.exchange]

@rotopenguin unlikely. Will just make it even harder for lower income people.

@stu @jerry it gets stupid if you go to the rich parts of town

[trashpanda@m.alittlenook.net]

@jerry @Viss It's madness. It's $4.75 here for premium, about a dollar less for regular. I am glad I don't drive. But I am not looking forward to what this is gonna do to the price of food soon.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@simonzerafa @jerry
your gas is 5.22/gal.
premium on the other side of town is 6.50

@jerry

if this drags on and the houthis close the bab-el-mandeb and both hormuz and suez aren't open for days to weeks, along with skyrocketing diesel prices in the US, both intl and domestic shipping are going to grind to a slow trickle. everything is going to be scarce, expensive, or both. going to get ugly indeed...

[stu@chaos.social]

@Viss damn

[viss@mastodon.social]

@trashpanda @jerry [cries in west coast]

[simonzerafa@infosec.exchange]

@Viss @jerry

It's varies a lot here. There was a fuel station about 10 miles away which is often £0.10 per litre less expensive.

Our EV car costs £0.07 x 85KW so £5.85 to fully charge.

That will get us around 300 miles. We normally only go to 80% charge unless going on a very long journey ‍️

@paul_ipv6 @jerry Oil is just one worry, it's the fertilizer impacts right now that have a long tail into the rest of the year. It's so bonkers.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@trashpanda @jerry at least ive only driven like 3 times in 16 days

[jerry@infosec.exchange]

The good news is that I managed to fix all the stuff my winter renters broke in my condo before spring and summer rentals get going

It’s a bit frustrating how hard they are on stuff. I wonder if they’re like that in their own house…

[viss@mastodon.social]

@jerry rhe deposit is yours!

[michael@social.chrisco.me]

@jerry @Viss its close to 550 here

[paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange]

@pauliehedron @jerry

everything we ship. raw materials, parts, food, fuels, all going to be impacted if the eastern part of the Med is closed off from the Indian Ocean. this will drag for months *after* things calm down.
