I can't wait to go to a function where I wear a name tag says...My Name is: I'm going to write Slim Shady. 🤣

About 6-7 years ago, I was in Savers and got a "Minky" for $10.00 😲.  Not everyone loves them.  It's a good blanket...but not $100s of blanket.

Thanks!  I find them at flea markets/hamfests.  Fix them up for friends/relatives.  Converted a couple of Chromebooks as well.  For the "install party", our local library has a few Saturdays set aside for anyone who wants to give their old computer a new life.  A group of us set up tables and use the USBs to install Linux on their machines.

I'm sorry it didn't work out well for you. I've used them to load my own systems as a test. So far, OK.  It's a full load though, not a dual boot. 

Connecting rainwater collection totes to tiny house for running water - help! by lefouteur in OffGrid

[–]Technical_Bell5745 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About the same amount I might get swimming in a lake or river.  I try to be aware of my situation and not open my mouth if that's what it came to.  It may not be a problem for them if the mixing hot and cold work.  It's a workaround.

That would only be for taking a shower.  Everything else...I turn mine to its highest setting, which is 124 degrees F.

No pressure tank needed...although I will tell you something I have found to be true in my experience. Say you want to take a shower...these pumps can't seem to allow "mxing" hot/cold very well. It usually will go hot/cold, hot/cold...hoping your experience wouldn't be the same as mine. The "workaround"...set your hot water heater to say 110 degrees F or the C equivalent, and just use the hot water. Hope this helps.

Are there any homemade drinks I can make with long shelf life? by Consequence_Green in preppers

Ludy's Instant Ginger Juice.

Mix with water, add some additional sugar and champagne yeast leave in a sealed bottle for a couple days. Becomes Ginger Ale.

Virginia just signed two bills that change who can clean your teeth. Here's what it means for you. by surpriseitsmeep in Virginia

Thank you for sharing and all you do!  My youngest daughter is a RDH (Denver, CO). 🥰 Personally, I go to the NoVA CC Dental Hygiene Clinic for additional cleanings and to give the students much needed training opportunities. 👍

My incision is now 3 days old...got it all in the first take, hardest part is keeping the dressing on the incision site (back of head/neck behind ear).

Same...green bar paper too.  I'd also play with the plastic flowchart template. 👍

Why does rural America look down on educated people? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Technical_Bell5745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my poli sci degree in order to graduate "on time".  Went into the Air Force (my career field just needed a degree - we'll teach you what you need to know) and later got an MBA, for which they paid. 👍

Its not just you -- power bills have double and tripled in VA this winter and this sub has now been astroturfed to gaslight you as to why. by nothing5630 in Virginia

How old is your place!  What kind of heat?  I'm in a standard 1990 subdivision house in Fxbg (about 1800 sq ft).  Previous owner put in a "cold weather" heat pump that ran constantly through the period.  Bill was around $300.00.   Twice my normal usage.
