Are there any Chinese places that have that good ol' deal of 3 combo that stack up and are around $9-$14?

I know there are some here in SV/TO, but I barely eat out. LA county has quite a few of them. Just wondering if we got any of those gems here

Sycamore Plaza in the 90’s…

Help us settle a bet. For those who remember the west end of Sycamore Plaza in the early 90’s, to the left of Albertsons was Tempo Records and Dr. Conkeys. To the right was Sunshine Greetings, a place that had Thomas Kinkade paintings, and then Movies to Go. That’s my recollection. Am I correct? Also, bonus, RIP to Hot Doggers. 🌭

Activities For Families

Hi hi, I don't live in Simi but I have some family over there. I'm trying to figure out if there's any activities I can gift them for Christmas because I know that's the kind of thing they would like. They have 2 kids ranging from toddler to 8.

Are there any family activities that aren't already free?

My Simi knowledge is limited to a few restaurants, an infinite amount of field trips to the Reagan museum, and the long dark tunnel under the freeway from when I was 17 lol.

Any help is much appreciated!

Did anyone else see that meteor or fireball at about 10:40pm?

I was really close (first and La) . Heard it pop. It looked like it was right over me physically. Thought it was aircraft debris at first. Nuts.

Old Band- InMemory

So I randomly started listening to their music again. Got me thinking, whatever happened to them? They were obviously big locally in the early to mid 2000s. Did some google searches, but I couldn't really find anything.

Anyone know what happened to them? Did the band members move on to other projects? Or, did they just go on to lead normal lives. Mainly just curious if anyone knows anything.

***Pre-post edit*** Actually just found out the lead singer died about 9 years ago. I guess I will go from here.

Dog Dental?

Hi everybody! What’s a good place for my dog to get his teeth cleaned? He has to be put under anesthesia for it, he is a miniature poodle. For this we have to take him to a doctor or a place that specializes in it rather than a normal grooming place. Thanks so much in advance :)

Differences Between GigabitNow and Flume Fiber Internet

We officially switched over to fiber internet. For the last week I’ve been scouring the internet trying to find out the difference between flume and gigabitnow.

When installing, both flume and gigabitnow have the owners of the fiber cable, FiberCity, come and install the fiber line from the street to your home.

When they came I thought it was flume who was doing it. Nope. When they knocked on the door it was fibercity. Flume just scheduled the appointment for us.

After installing, they will give you a modem. In this case ours was from flume.

If you decide to switch to gigabit now, ALL they do is they come and pick up the previous modem, and gigabit now delivers their modem, both companies use the exact same fiber line owned by FiberCity.

Currently with flume but I think I’m going to switch over to gigabit now. 65 dollars lifetime pricing is cool from flume but gigabit now offers 1, 2.5 and 5 gbps speeds.

I spoke with someone who installs fiber for different cities and he hasn’t seen gigabit now increase their pricing for years.

Pretty much the only different between the two companies is customer service. If you need to get in contact with someone from flume, it’s almost nonexistent. Gigabitnow, wait on hold and you’ll get connected. Plus gigabit offers faster speeds.

Weigh out your options!

Hope this helps anyone looking to get more information on this because I had no clue when doing my research until the guys actually came and I could pick their brains.

Found Stray & Needs a Home

Had read somewhere that the shelters were full and there were euthanizing so we keep the stray. Now I’m reading that Simi is a no kill shelter. Is the best way to find a friendly stray cat a home by dropping them at the shelter?

Fire off Kuehner and Santa Suasana Pass

I heard someone honking and screaming something outside and then received a text from my neighbor saying they were screaming “fire!” Fire trucks and officers came immediately and it seems to be contained and it was a house fire- not a brush fire.

Local Cyber Security Jobs?

Hey, been on the job hunt for a while now and I cannot find anything in the direct Simi area for entry-level cybersecurity roles, closest I've really seen is Oxnard. Everything seems to be senior or executive and I know I'm not ready for that class of work. I have 3 years of relevant experience, CompTIA Network & Security+ certs along with cloud certs for AWS and Azure so I think I would be qualified for something entry-level if I could even find it. Are there just no jobs in the cybersecurity field around here?

Parking overnight?

I’m in an unhealthy relationship and I find myself having to sleep in my car some nights (I know, I’m working on breaking the trauma bond) in order to avoid triggering an altercation with him.

Is there a place I can legally/ safely park/sleep overnight?

I do have a steady job, & have been trying to save up my money. Unfortunately im not “there” yet regarding a full on rent

Thanks guys!

Looking to get fiber internet. Which companies should I go through and is there a difference?

We just had the fiber cables installed in our neighborhood so I am able to use that instead of spectrum 500 mb package. Is fiber the fastest internet available? Which companies offer it? Would love help on this. Thank you!

I now have my Hazmat and tanker endorsement and am looking for local work. I've been applying person on indeed zip recruiter with not much success.
