Made it back home from the beach.

@jerry Look at you being all positive!

Maybe the RTO will be dead again for a while (though just in time for my place to be doing a construction build out taking more space when only 10% even show up with the existing setup...)

@jerry somehow there's always money for fuel... LPG is going to be a different "animal" (for example, heating and food prep in Europe is going to suffer, good thing I already have electric alternatives, but electricity is going up too sooner or later...).

@jerry 5.85 for premium here today

[jerry@infosec.exchange]

@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.

[stu@chaos.social]

@Viss ouch

@jerry

[paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange]

@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

[jerry@infosec.exchange]

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

[rotopenguin@mastodon.social]

@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.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@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

[paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange]

@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 ‍️

[pauliehedron@infosec.exchange]

@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…
