Is Liberty Gas Station a good place to get midgrade gas? Asking in general, but the specific station I’d go to is off of route 4 in Newark. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but figured I would ask since their gas is significantly cheaper than other gas stations in new castle county.

My friend and I both have AT&T and unlimited data and everytime we are at People's Plaza, our phones can not connect to the internet in any way. Does anyone have any insight on why this one spot nukes our phones?

Looking for elopement location recommendations mainly in DE or PA (open to other states neighboring states too). Somewhere scenic, outdoorsy and intimate for just about 5 people plus an officiant and a photographer. All tips welcomed 😊

Spotlight’s article here points to a report that helps solidify what we’ve been hearing for a while now - The electricity load demand from new data centers drives residents’ bills up.

“While the report analyzes the supply of electricity in Delaware, Tweedie noted that consumers are also paying more money on their energy bills for utilities’ distribution and transmission costs.”

The project near Delaware City (that was projecting 1.2 GW of electricity load) is on hold because of the way the Coastal Zone Act decision fell. However, there’s another data center project planned for the White Clay Creek Business Center though that doesn’t have any hurdles like that currently in its way.

On top of electricity bill increases, these things create a constant noise that impacts people in the area, and the potential pollution from cooling systems and generators is a concern.

If you want to do something about it, look up who your County Councilmember and your state legislators are and contact them. Call on them to put better guardrails in place to protect residents quality of life and our bills. We shouldn’t have to fund these developers’ and tech corp’s profits.

Hi! We have a hangar at ILG that needs repairs. Namely, there are several openings at the join between the walls and the roof that need patching. Birds keep getting in and making a mess. Anyone got a guy who can patch them?

Thank you!

preferably near NCC. tried my hand and doing some research but keep coming up with the same 5 cookie cutter polished locations in DE. ideally like abandoned structure or industrial look. anything helps, thanks!

Just cleared my background check and got my start date confirmed — I’ll be joining JPMorgan Chase in Delaware next month as an SE3 and I couldn’t be more excited (and honestly, a little nervous)! 🎉

For those who have been through the onboarding process there, I’d love to know what the first day actually looks like. Like, what time do people typically show up? Is there a formal orientation session or is it more of a ‘here’s your laptop, figure it out’ kind of vibe? Do they walk you through everything — badge access, tools, team introductions — or is it spread across the first week?

Also curious about the little things that nobody really tells you beforehand: where to park, what to wear, whether to bring lunch or if there’s a good cafeteria situation, and who to talk to if something goes wrong with your access or setup.

I’m the type who likes to be overprepared, so any tips, stories, or advice from people who’ve been through JPMorgan Chase onboarding in Delaware would be super helpful. What do you wish you had known before your first day? What would you do differently?

I have a new puppy, and she's driving me crazy!

I'm looking for a recommendation for puppy training classes around here. I don't want to go to Petsmart. I'd like people to go somewhere that focuses on this specifically on this.

I'm not looking for anything too intense, just some basics to tame the little beast! I am kidding, I love her very much.

If anyone has had success anywhere in North Wilmington, please let me know.

I’m trying to help an elderly neighbor (82) who is currently living on about $1,800/month from SSI. His rent just increased to around $1,300, so it’s taking up most of his income. He uses a walker and realistically isn’t able to work, and he hasn’t ever really applied for additional aid.

I’m trying to help connect him with any programs, discounts, or services that could make things a little easier for him. He’s not great with computers, so I’m helping navigate this for him.

Does anyone know of any resources that could help with things like rent, utilities, food, or general support? I’m just starting to look into this and would really appreciate any guidance! We’re in Wilmington-NCC.

If you're one of the people who recently had FiOS installed in your old construction home and are considering switching to fios just don't. I had a perfectly fine stable connection with Xfinity but wanted to see if FiOS could be better. Long story short I had 3 tech visits at the beginning to get it working "normally". The day to day use case was fine but there would always be random drop outs while gaming or using IPTV. Could be a one off situation but would love to hear if anyone has had a positive outcome from switching in a place with newly installed lines.
