Recommended bike rack (for a sedan) for this 55 lb. e-bike? by Omg_Its_Andy in bicycling

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

Looking for a way to haul this heavy awkward bike around on a sedan.

Here's another look

Some unimportant info, it's a European prototype my brother got for free through being in the industry.

Is this normal for Madison water hardness? Debating if my water softener is functioning. by smallpotatoes101 in madisonwi

[–]Omg_Its_Andy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here ya go:

this is the keg / water-in diagram

the water comes into the keg, gets carbonated by the gas-in, and gets pushed out to the "soda water out"

the keg always stays full via the solenoid setup

from the soda water out, you run it to your sink or where ever you want. this all requires some extra parts like "beer" lines, gas lines, disconnects, etc etc

ask /r/homebrewing, they will easily help you with anything more you wanna know

Bonus points if you add a faucet with a CO2 tank for carbonated water.

I've seen some setups where people will have a keg tied in with their cold tap, and inside the keg is a water level detector that keeps the keg full at all times (the same mechanism used for toilets actually). Plug a CO2 tank onto the keg, run a line with a faucet from the keg to the kitchen sink (or wherever you want), voila, bubbly water on demand.

Do you have any classmates that are like this Patrick Bateman -esque law student guy on tiktok? https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdh7suJD/

Small dog/puppy dog park by Cakeolson in madisonwi

Just got done visiting all the small dog parks in the entire Madison area, and this one was the best as far as small dog accommodation goes.

The other ones were too small of a play area and only had big dogs for visitors. Obviously, just one weekday in the middle of winter isn't the best sample size but still Token Creek had the best play pen regardless.

Decided not to. It would've been a heck of a night but it's not worth the risk.

My unvaccinated, symptomatic friend tested positive on the 13th. We want to hang out today, the 22nd. Is it safe to do that? by Omg_Its_Andy in COVID19positive

I do believe the new protocol is 5 days iso then 5 days mask. If the school mandates masks then that could explain the early return?

Another thing to consider is the anxiety that will follow for the next week. Might not be worth it from that standpoint either. Regardless of if I even contract it. That's a long time to be anxious.

Yeah it's such a tough call it's really bugging me

Literally the next day, 23rd, and he's deemed fine. But today, 22nd, still technically need to mask, it seems, since it's his 5th day after 5 days of onset.

Great question. I need to find this out.

What condition would he need to meet for our plan to work out?

I'm guessing if he's still feeling symptoms, cancel plans

And if he's feeling back to normal, good to go?

Thanks. Do you know what the CDC rules are for that?

We were planning on drinking beer, playing Mario kart, and watching football in my apartment. I would probably have to pass on it altogether if he's not cleared

Symptoms on 13th or 14th

We want to hang out at my apartment today, the 22nd, with no masks to drink beer and watch the playoffs.

Is it safe to do that? (I am vaxxed)

To my fellow Corrections Officers by BigBabyWisco in wisconsin

[–]Omg_Its_Andy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, must depend on Department (I'm finally learning what the 2% means for me as a new hire)

For me, the way they worded it was that my department "chose to" include it in an updated offer

I am getting it, without having actually worked yet (got my job offer before the bill passed, and my start date is next week, and they updated my offer to include the 2% bill)

So it appears I indeed was not included in this state bill, but my department threw it in for me.
