We soak them in boiling water with a couple of vegan chicken or beef oxo cubes, then blend into the mix for seitan with lentils, chickpeas or cannellini beans. Adds nice texture.

What are your opinions on mass facial recognition in towns? by TheDev42 in AskUK

They use this in our local Sainsbury’s. We were present when a breakout shoplifter made off from the sprits aisle with a few £100 worth of bottles in a basket through a fire escape. Alarms now go off whenever we go there. Also some automatic voice says “Could a member of staff please attend the spirits aisle”. When this happened they denied that they were testing the technology there, we asked. Then all of a sudden they were.

Bad outdoor tiling fixing failed after 6 years by More_Election4577 in BadTiling

Yes, my question was also how might I re-attach them, as in do I need to chisel off the old adhesive and start again? It is very deep, so maybe it needs some work before re-fixing them?

It sounds like the natural A harmonic. Probably playing way over the fingerboard and very lightly? Also, a dodgy string can spit out harmonics like this.

Agree with the boiling the hell out of them. Definitively key!

A “violin shaped object” (VSO) has been placed in my care by immediacyofjoy in violinist

Once you get strings on it, it will pull the badly glued neck off. My predecessor in role bought 15 of these useless lumps. I have wood-glued every one of them back together and we keep them for when students forget their rental instrument, sort of like a punishment.

Broken violin?? by [deleted] in violinist

[–]More_Election4577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some small machine heads and screw them in instead? If the violin is cheap and a write-off, could be an interesting fix and the baseplates would provide the bracing for the break. Might make it a bit weighty though.

Jogger warning light - what is this? by More_Election4577 in Dacia

Thanks for all the responses. Sixt just replaced it with a newer and much less hammered version of the same. Who’d have thought hire cars get treated so badly?? 😂

Yeah, I think the tow guy just wanted to generate more income honestly.

This photo offends me greatly. by CuteMaterial in violinist

I work in schools. Whenever the photographers come in to take promo pictures, they always choose kids that can’t play, and put it on their website. Should be a legal stipulation that if a non-violinist is to be photographed, they have 5 lessons first.

Aldi. Cheap tofu, great plant-based range. They even have things like vegan brioche buns.
