What's the soap that car mechanics use? Gojo? It's like this gritty soap designed to get oil off of hands. Get some of that.
Maybe there's oil under there!
He doesn't understand glaciers.
Glaciers are made from snow piling up over centuries.
Some of it melts each winter, but over time, the glacier should stay about the same.
If this glacier is melted, that means it's been more melting than building back up for the last century. It's a sign of global warming.
Its been proven that the recycling symbol is placed on things that are not actually known to be recyclable - e.g., yogurt containers - to get people to feel better about buying plastic
Too good to go sounds like a wonderful idea that will shortly get ruined by businesses trying to cheat the system

So they got a new patent after a competitor's game comes out, and used that new patent to sue the competitor out of existence.
Fucking IP law is broken.
So the common plastic pump you see in every soap dispenser has two parts - the part you screw onto the soap container, and the piston thingy, above that, that you push down to get the soap to spurt out of and into your hand.
If you put something above the screwy part, on the lowest part of the piston, you reduce the amount that the piston goes down. And reduce the amount of soap that can come out.

Username checks out. Get tested for syphilis.
The claim says patent claim. This isn't design related then. What is the claim then? Appearance of monsters doesn't make a patent case.
Give me your number and I will call you
Can you comment on
- the general speed of infrastructure -how many kW? More slow or DC fast?
- price difference between home rates and public fast chargers
- do most people seem to be charging at the DC fast chargers, at home, or at slower chargers outside shopping and etc.
Can any Norwegians say which models of cars are being bought there? And any info on infrastructure and electric rates, etc. are affecting adoption of EV?
Sheila, I'm a very private person and I would like to keep my work and home life separated. I need that to feel comfortable. I'm here to get work done and happy to talk about anything omnoir work.
Put the network name as 'FBI Wiretap' and then talk to your neighbors, asking if they've seen a lot of unmarked vans on the street.
Wondering what your take on this is.
A lot of kids movies/tv perpetuate harmful gender roles. The obvious culprit is Disney - and the 'a woman's role is to get married' storylines. Even the later Disney movies seem to be embracing the message even while appearing to refute it.
But it's larger than that. All the instances where a female character is only in a supporting role, or female characters have certain traits (empathy) but lack other traits (aggressiveness). Doing a gender swap and seeing the differences in how characters are portrayed has helped me see the double standards.
I've become more sensitive to this as I'm screening media for my young girls to watch.
A couple of the media that I've seen are the g rated Ghibli movies - Totoro and Kiki's shows young girls that are independent, aggressive, courageous, and go through problems and overcome them.
I'm looking for some more examples of movies - g rated especially - in that vein.
I live in California and am sick of good legislation being sidelined by lobbyists. So, let's identify ideas for how voters (in any state) can improve their situation via direct democracy
I live in an area with not so great air quality and no AC. We have little air filters inside the rooms, but at night we have to let the cool (and dirty) air inside to cool down the house. I'd like a solution to blow air in while also filtering it - but aside from one Amazon listing and makeshift solutions with zip ties, I haven't seen great options.
Any recommendations you have?
Today marked the third time my spouse has lost their battle with the garage door opener. We have historically been used to a smaller car. But upgrading to a new EV crossover (a year ago) has brought with it its own challenges.
The first time it happened, the lift gate was up when the door button was pressed. Minor scratch to the plastic covering the light bar.
The second time, a few months ago, a scratch in the back metal that is somewhat noticeable. They said they were tired after a long day and the washer door was open so it seemed like they needed more space and weren't thinking enough when they closed it.
The third time, tonight, they were also tired. No washer this time. Noticeable small dent in the metal panel accompanied with a scratch that went thru to the metal underneath.
I have gone ahead and finished putting up the tennis ball on a string as a guide. I started the idea after incident #2 but procrastinated on putting it up as I thought that was the end of it. I learned we needed it.
I have let them know that accidents can happen, but that they can be responsible for getting it fixed. It's ok. We just need to keep this car now until it dies.
Looking to see if you know of any restaurants doing anything interesting for reducing takeout plastic waste. Deposit for using Pyrex? Discount for byo? Etc
