The Chargers will be playing out of StubHub Center (capacity 27k, to be boosted to 30k; home of the Los Angeles Galaxy of MLS) for the next two years. The Galaxy have told the media that the Chargers will have to schedule around them, as they just released their schedule for the upcoming season.

That grass field will not look pretty come playoff time in November.

In all honestly, the Chargers moving to Los Angeles makes more sense than the Rams moving. Qualcomm is a s**thole that is one of the oldest stadiums in the league, about the same age as Oakland and almost as bad. It has received no major renovations since it opened in 1967 and it's a cookie-cutter stadium.
I am with you on that one. It was just so ludicrous that they were talking about replacing a stadium in St Louis that was barely over 20 years old. The Edward Jones Dome was just fine in the Chargers case they really did need a new stadium. They had a referendum vote last fall and it was voted down so that tells me the people of San Diego didn't care about keeping the team anyways. I think the Rams should go back to St Louis as LA can barely support one team.

This got a chuckle out of me:

Basically this has been a complete disaster so far for the Chargers.  They lose out on getting a new stadium in San Diego, end up being second fiddle to another crappy team in Los Angeles, and then have new logo booed relentlessly at the Staples Center:

Thank goodness it won't be the official logo! It's almost like they looked at the Dodgers logo and said: "Let's make a trashier version of it!"
Go Cubs Go! Go Cubs Go! Hey Chicago, what do you say? The Cubs are gonna win today!

They copied the Dodgers and threw a Tampa Bay Lightning bolt logo into the last

I heard today that no moving company has been willing to move the team. This is how bitter San Diego is about losing the Chargers.

LOL!  Even the Colts found someone willing to help them leave Baltimore.
