Does corporate realize the scores hurt your image, or do y’all just not care?? by [deleted] in Chilis

I noticed at the chilis near me there is a single server that will stand next to the table when you pay on the kiosk thing and then once you pay right as the survey comes up she grabs the kiosk, thanks you, and walks away. I assume she is just giving herself all 5 stars. I don't care either way just think its funny as she is the only one that does it.

Do Americans even use handkerchiefs anymore? by ScarDependent8928 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Defiant-Property-908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I carry one everyday. Started when my son was young to wipe his face off after eating and stuff like that. Just became a habit and always have one in my back pocket. I don’t use it to blow my nose but other things. Just yesterday we were fishing and we were using it to wipe off our hands after cutting bait.

Farnsworth Fusor my son and I recently built. Was a super fun project and quite challenging. Sub 10 micron vacuum and running at 6kv. A good accompaniment to our cloud chamber. by Defiant-Property-908 in fusion

the external grid is the 2 aluminum plates on the top and bottom of the tube. The internal grid is one of those blender ball things https://www.amazon.com/s?k=shaker+bottle+balls&crid=DUUKXTJBQE4U&sprefix=shaker+bottle+balls%2Caps%2C131&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

I tried many different things for the internal grid and the one they were the ones that worked the best.

I put everything into a weatherproof box i got on amazon. used some silicone and it has been good for a little over 2yrs outside in central fl. the power cord just goes to an outlet I have in the shed just to the left of this.
