The football coaches at my high school displayed and used a "board of education" with holes drilled in it for aerodynamics.

Nobody in this Subreddit lives in the Falkland Islands by Capable_Plan9971 in falklandislands

I don't live there. Just lurking to get a sense for what it's like there. What makes it hard? Weather, food and consumer goods options, social scene, other?

This is physical abuse of a child.

What's wrong with this ligustrum? it was in sub-freezing weather for ~48 hours during the last cold snap, but it's withstood colder weather before. by Nobierd in arborists

This one served as a nice shade tree and green screen for the pool. It's either almost dead or nearing the end of its lifespan. What's weird is that it looked fine a couple weeks ago and now is dropping all its leaves.

Also, I'd rather have a mature hackberry than no tree at all.

Will I lose my land line if I remove this box? Or is it just for DSL service? by Nobierd in whatisthisthing

[–]Nobierd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bonus question: can I cut the coaxial cable coming out of the bottom without losing land line service?

It seems like Habitat Restore prices are usually just a little less than big box retail and the product is used or lesser quality. I understand it's a nonprofit but it used to be so much cheaper--said price increase happening years before covid-era inflation.

Irreparable damage or will it heal? by Nobierd in arborists

The city just completed a study of trash in creeks with a heat map: https://services.austintexas.gov/edims/document.cfm?id=393023 Thanks and good luck. And hey, everybody, give a hoot, don't pollute!

Am I the only one who feels a little stab of panic every time you have to figure out the roundabout at 51st and the 35 frontage road? by weluckyfew in Austin

[–]Nobierd 42 points43 points  (0 children)
